This behavior is linked to changes in the area of the brain that controls coordination, known as the cerebellum, and can manifest as clumsiness and a tendency to bump into things. The revelation has surprised many viewers, shedding light on a subtle yet telling symptom of adult ADHD.

"Dung Beetles Demonstrate Remarkable Coordination in Rolling Behavior, Study Reveals"

Male and female dung beetles in South Africa have been observed coordinating their actions to roll dung balls over obstacles, with males grabbing the ball from above and females performing headstands to push the ball off the ground with their legs. This cooperative behavior, observed in spider dung beetles, is unique as the beetles do not know their final destination. Researchers found that pairs of beetles were faster and more efficient than single ones when faced with obstacles, but the mechanism of their coordination remains a mystery due to the beetles' small brains.

"Alleged Campaign Law Violations and Legal Complaints Plague DeSantis' Campaign"

A campaign watchdog group, the Campaign Legal Centre, has filed five complaints against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's campaign, accusing him of illegally coordinating with a super PAC called Never Back Down. The group is concerned that the level of collaboration between the super PAC and DeSantis's campaign is providing an "alarming" level of influence to the super PAC's backers. DeSantis's campaign denies the allegations, calling them "baseless," while the super PAC insists it is in full compliance with federal law. None of the complaints have reached a resolution at this time.

DeSantis and Never Back Down Super PAC Under Fire for Alleged Campaign Finance Violations

Ron DeSantis and his 2024 presidential campaign, along with the Never Back Down Super PAC supporting him, are facing a complaint from the nonprofit watchdog Campaign Legal Center, alleging that they violated federal law by coordinating their activities and making in-kind contributions. The complaint claims that the super PAC failed to remain independent from the candidate and his campaign, contrary to legal requirements. DeSantis and his team have dismissed the allegations as baseless, stating that the complaint is politically motivated. The FEC has previously stated that they won't take action based on unverified rumors.

DeSantis and Super PAC Under Fire for Alleged Campaign Finance Violations

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is accused of breaking campaign finance laws by coordinating with the Never Back Down PAC, according to a complaint filed with the Federal Election Commission. The complaint alleges that DeSantis's campaign illegally influenced the activities of the super PAC supporting his 2024 presidential bid. The Campaign Legal Center claims that DeSantis's campaign complained about the PAC's ads targeting Nikki Haley, which is seen as a violation of federal campaign finance laws. The watchdog group also alleges that the PAC effectively operated as an arm of DeSantis's campaign, subsidizing and underwriting his candidacy. The complaint calls for civil penalties and an injunction to prevent future violations.

"Watchdog Group Accuses DeSantis of Campaign Finance Violation, Super PAC Strategist Resigns"

A nonpartisan government watchdog group, the Campaign Legal Center, has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission accusing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of breaking campaign finance law by coordinating with a super PAC supporting his presidential bid. The complaint alleges that the level of coordination and communication between DeSantis' campaign and the super PAC, Never Back Down, crossed legal boundaries. DeSantis' spokesperson dismissed the complaint as baseless, while the governor's political operation faces turmoil and departures from top-level strategists. The FEC's resolution of the complaint may take years, and its board often deadlocks on campaign finance enforcement matters.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' presidential campaign and the super PAC supporting him, Never Back Down, have been hit with a complaint by the Campaign Legal Center, alleging coordination between the two entities in violation of federal election laws. The complaint accuses Never Back Down of making in-kind contributions to DeSantis' campaign, which goes against the requirement for super PACs to remain independent.

Never Back Down has been heavily involved in DeSantis' Iowa ground game, and the complaint follows the recent departure of its chief operative.

"Republicans Celebrate Landmark Campaign Finance Victory, Echoing Citizens United"

The GOP is optimistic about a lawsuit that could remove spending restrictions and allow official party committees and candidates to coordinate freely, potentially leading to a significant shift in campaign spending. The lawsuit, filed by the National Republican Senatorial Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee, aims to eliminate the need for separate operations for independent expenditures, enabling party committees to use their funds to support individual campaigns. While some Democrats are skeptical of the lawsuit's success, a victory could have implications for the 2024 elections. The case is currently with an Ohio district court judge, who may send it to the conservative-leaning 6th Circuit for review.

Migrants seek refuge in Colonie amidst shocking conditions.

More than 20 asylum-seekers driven from New York City arrived at the SureStay Plus by Best Western Hotel on Wolf Road in Colonie, New York, early Sunday morning. The town supervisor alleged that New York City Mayor Eric Adams failed to notify the Albany County executive’s office of the plan, a violation of a county executive order issued Tuesday. The town was not equipped to service “an influx of persons of unknown health, dietary, and behavioral histories.” Albany County Executive Dan McCoy's May 23 executive order required that the county be notified to coordinate housing for migrants and asylum-seekers being transported here, and that only the county social services commissioner could issue licenses to hotels, motels or other dwellings to house groups of people.

US House Committees Seek Clarity and Oversight for Digital Assets

Three Republican members of the US House Financial Services Committee have sent letters to the heads of US banking regulatory agencies seeking information on possible coordinated efforts taken against digital asset firms. The lawmakers see a “coordinated strategy” to deny the digital asset industry access to banking that is not related to a desire to protect banks. The letters demand non-public records relating to communications between employees of each of the agencies addressed and the institutions they supervise regarding the documents referenced.

The Future of AI: Multimodal Language Models and Understanding.

AI researchers are divided on whether large pretrained language models like GPT-4 can understand language. While they can coordinate on a shared meaning, they likely don't have generative or constructive understanding. These language models are trained on a huge but restricted domain, unlike human understanding, which maps textual experience onto somatosensory experience. Humans apply mechanical reasoning to things, while GPT-4 doesn't have a physics model. The narrative that these language models have rediscovered human reasoning is misguided and demonstrably false.
