	Twinkie defense Information
		In jurisprudence, a "Twinkie defense" is a criminal defendant's claim that some unusual factor entered into the causes or motives of the alleged crime.
		During the trial, a noted psychiatrist, Martin Blinder, testified that White had been depressed at the time of the crime, successfully arguing for a ruling of diminished capacity, and White was thus judged incapable of the premeditation required for a murder conviction; instead, White was convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
		As a result of the White case, diminished capacity was abolished in 1982 by Proposition 8 and the California legislature, and replaced by "diminished actuality," referring not to the capacity to have a specific intent but to whether a defendant actually had a required intent to commit the crime with which he was charged.

	FUNNY TUMMY - Twinkie Stress Test
		Upon removal, the Twinkie was not found to be frozen solid, but its physical properties had noticeably "slowed": the filling was found to be the approximate consistency of acrylic paint, while exhibiting the mercury-like property of not adhering to practically any surface.
		SUMMARY OF RESULTS: The Twinkie's survival of a 120-foot drop, along with some of the unusual phenomena associated with the "creamy filling" and artificial coloring, should give pause to those observers who would unequivocally categorize the Twinkie as "food." Further clinical inquiry is required before any definite conclusions can be drawn.

	Take Heart, Twinkie Lovers - October 20, 2004 - The New York Sun
		Twinkies may seem like the very epitome of plastic 1950s suburban culture, but they were actually invented in 1930.
		Faced with the possibility of an imminent Twinkie shortage, or even Twinkie extinction, we appear to have two choices: The first is to amass a deep Twinkie stockpile, sort of like a snack-cake version of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve; the other, more intriguing option, is to make our own.
		The recipes usually try to surmount this obstacle either by reconceiving the Twinkies as a layer cake that can be cut into Twinkie-sized pieces, or by calling for makeshift molds made from aluminum foil.

		And, yes, Twinkies originally came in pairs, which has led some individuals to incorrectly theorize that the name was a play on the word twins.
