Talaash (song)
"Talaash" (Urdu: تلاش, literal English translation: "search") is a song by the Pakistani sufi rock band Junoon. It is the seventh track and the only single released from the band's second album, Talaash (1993), released on EMI Records. Written by guitarist Salman Ahmad, it is the lead single on the album.

In addition, the album version of the song featured in the compilation album, Kashmakash, released in 1995.

The song is politically-influenced and became subject to censorship, which led to the eventual ban from all state-run television and radio during the rule of the then Pakistani Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif.

Many thought the image was an indictment of the corrupt Pakistani political elite, and especially of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. The government quickly banned the song and video from state television.

Tia Ciata
Tia Ciata, born Hilária Batista de Almeida (1854–1924) was a Brazilian mãe-de-santo of Candomblé, and an influential figure in the development of samba. She was a devotee of deity Oshun and became the iyakekerê, or second most important leader, in the terreiro of João Alabá in Rio de Janeiro.

Mãe-de-santo
A mãe-de-santo or mãe de santo (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈmɐ̃j d(ʒi) ˈsɐ̃tu], plural mães de santo [ˈmɐ̃js d(ʒi) ˈsɐ̃tu]) is a priestess of Candomblé, Umbanda and Quimbanda, the Afro-Brazilian religions.  Those Portuguese words mean literally "saint's mother", a calque of the Yoruba word iyalorisha, a title given to female leaders of the Yoruba religion. Iya means "mother", and the contraction l'orisha means "of orisha", adapted into Portuguese as "of saint" due to the traditionally Catholic-centric culture that surrounds that language.

The priestesses are more venerated in African-Brazilian religions than the priests, who are called pais-de-santo.
In the Afro-Brazilian religions, the priestesses and priests are seen as the owners of tradition, knowledge and culture; it is their responsibility to pass those on to the new generations, because there is no religious text to use for the record.
Poison (Hazbin Hotel song)

An official remix by The Living Tombstone, with a new Hyperpop instrumental and featuring Joel Perez as Valentino, was released on April 1, 2024, Angel Dust's birthday.

When the historians write it down a century from now, they will be dealing with Louis Chevrolet, Walter Chrysler, the Dodge brothers, the Durants, Maxwells and others who put their names on the cars Americans drove or the companies that built them. But they will also have a tale to tell about John Bugas, who in his time had as dramatic a moment as any of them. [Bugas was] a giant of the auto industry and at a time when the industry itself strode around the world in seven-league boots.

Petersberg Railway
The Petersberg Railway, or Petersbergbahn, was a rack railway line in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany. The line ran from Königswinter to the summit of the Petersberg mountain, and was built to serve the Hotel Petersberg there. The line opened in 1889 and closed in 1958.

The line had a rail gauge of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) and used the Riggenbach rack design, with trains propelled by steam locomotives. From 1913, the Petersberg Railway was under the same ownership as the nearby Drachenfels Railway, which is still in service. Although never physically connected, the two railways used the same track gauge and rack equipment, and rolling stock was transferred between the two lines.

Track gauge
In rail transport, track gauge is the distance between the two rails of a railway track. All vehicles on a rail network must have wheelsets that are compatible with the track gauge. Since many different track gauges exist worldwide, gauge differences often present a barrier to wider operation on railway networks.

The term derives from the metal bar, or gauge, that is used to ensure the distance between the rails is correct.

Railways also deploy two other gauges to ensure compliance with a required standard. A loading gauge is a two-dimensional profile that encompasses a cross-section of the track, a rail vehicle and a maximum-sized load: all rail vehicles and their loads must be contained in the corresponding envelope. A structure gauge specifies the outline into which structures (bridges, platforms, lineside equipment etc.) must not encroach.
Macaca majori
Macaca majori, commonly known as the dwarf macaque, is a prehistoric macaque from the Early Pleistocene of Sardinia, Italy. It descended from the Barbary macaque. Its temporal range spans from about 2 million to 0.8 million years ago, during the Nesogoral faunal complex, alongside the goat-antelope Nesogoral, the pig Sus sondaari, the hyena Chasmaporthetes, the pika Prolagus, the shrew Asoriculus, the mole Talpa tyrrhenica, the mustelid Pannonictis, and the dormouse Tyrrhenoglis.

Early Pleistocene
The Early Pleistocene is an unofficial sub-epoch in the international geologic timescale in chronostratigraphy, representing the earliest division of the Pleistocene Epoch within the ongoing Quaternary Period. It is currently estimated to span the time between 2.580 ± 0.005 Ma (million years ago) and 0.773 ± 0.005 Ma. The term Early Pleistocene applies to both the Gelasian Age and the Calabrian Age.

While the Gelasian and the Calabrian have officially been defined by the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) to effectively constitute the Early Pleistocene, the succeeding Chibanian and Tarantian ages have yet to be ratified. These proposed ages are unofficially termed the Middle Pleistocene and Late Pleistocene respectively. The Chibanian provisionally spans time from 773 ka to 126 ka, and the Tarantian from then until the definitive end of the whole Pleistocene, c. 9700 BC in the 10th millennium BC.
