How do I subscribe for free without contracting me in some way to Bulgarians and Gold Statue Turkmenbashites? I am hopelessly mesmerized by the Brave New World and Such People who Dwell in ’t, which is their beat & niche. They cover stuff i never suspected existed (and actively resisted verifying).

To paraphrase Neffe A.'s explanation of Facebook ("It's a Time Suck, Uncle Bob")

• Video Games = Big Time Suck
 
• Video Games on SmartPhone =
   Big Time Suck & Die 
   or get Fucked Up Bad 
   & get SmartPhone & wallet stole

MIRANDA
      Oh, wonder!
How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous Poketopia is! O brave new world,
That has such Weedle and Rattata in ’t!

In Socialist Praha/Prague, Capek was Okay & Revered at 2 crappy Peoples Grey Dark Bookstores, but Kafka was kaput, verboden, defense a fumer. The Invisible Non-Goofball Not Czech Novelist -- I guess the Peoples Ministry of Literature called him Doctor Who? Now he's Big In The Window of a dozen Big Great colorful well-lighted Bookstores, and he's New Prague's Poster Boy for the world's Literaturistas. 

***** PUBLIC NOTICE ******

as a Do-Gooder NuttyCrunch Sustainable Resource Service to All Sentients, Emperor-for-Life Ming the Merciless XXIV, now CMFIC of moNGO, will lead 

PROJECT RUN4HIGROUND

whose object all sublime, which will be reached on time, is to compile

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! 
and
FLEE TO HIGH GROUND!

in all known Human and Non-Human lingi, Natural Language & Unnatural Language, because without this, there you are, in the middle of a big mob all shrieking

NOB SHMOZ KA-POP!
 
and you can't even grok if it's finno-ugrik or indo-euro, let alone what its Significance might be. Such a list in a laminated wallet card could be invaluable. Otherwise your best instinct is to pee in your pants, stick your thumb up your ass, and burst into sobs.

* * *

Should PROJECT RUN4HIGROUND also compile all language renderings of Option C?

PUT HEAD BETWEEN KNEES 
KISS ASS GOODBYE

or

THINK OF MOTHER

so all Vleeptroids, or just e-folks what took a wrong turn in the Labyrinth, just send Ming the Merciless of moNGO via e-mail (no tweets, no hashtag drek) any phrase you think is useful in these kinds of unexpected situations in a faraway Lingoland. Yo. Leave A Comment.

Remember:

is our new filched motto & Sacred Holy Vow. Also no negative cyberbullying. Alles Affengesselschaft (tm) verboten.

Does anyone know if Little League besbol (from whom we filched the motto) now lets Human Youth Females play? If you have Opinions -- and remember, VleeptronZ honors the Dumb & Brain-Dead as it honors the insightful and valuable -- please Leave a Comment.

More parsing of the remarkable Vow Shoulder Patch of Little League.

It's not
 
i Don't Cheat

whose auxiliary verb Don't implies ... well, less somehow. 

Also there is no contract with the reader, no vow, no pledge, no accountability.

Won't

is the Lad or Lass's personal vow to expect & accept World Besbol Shame in 2 Big Indo-Euro languages and a huge Sino-Japanese lingo. There can be no escaping a miserable remainder of your miserable life anywhere the crack of a wooden or aluminum bat is a familiar sound, on the diamond, or at night down a dark street.

► That's the boy who cheated in Little League.

► They caught her cheating in Little League.

That's a Brand (not a laser-erasable Tattoo) that sorta sticks with you forever. Recover from THAT!

I was well into print newspapering (or Dead Tree Media, as RamanuJohn calls it), enough to fancy that I'd now Seen Everything and heard of All Ethically Whack (human) Krap, when the Winner of the big North America Kids' Soap Box Derby got caught out.

The Rules say Billy can spend no more than $100 on Billy's homemade balsa wood Downhill Gravity Car. 

But Billy's winning lead over all other cars in the final heat was so great, that they suspected more than just Skilled Youth Garage Science was at work.

Billy's doting Rich Uncle Max had happily blown $30,000+, including Wind Tunnel Time, but the real Cherry On Top was, at the Starting Line when the Green Light went on, Billy would push back his helmet to activate a switch in his head cushion, and turn ON a strong battery-powered electromagnet. Then the Starting Gate -- made of ferromagnetic steel -- would drop, and beyond Gravity, Billy's car was thrust forward by 79.3 watts (femtogausses, whatever, Leave A Comment) of magnetic attraction. (A whiff of which the cars of Tommy, Joey, Rick & Todd got naught.)

That was maybe 30+ years ago. Leave A Comment if you know what became of Billy. He showed poor judgment in his actions and choice of Favorite Rich Uncle. In low-rent criminal District Court, I always tell the Judge

I Fell In With Bad Companions.

BEST DEFENSE LAWYER EVER

And now to Pocketgamer's coverage of

The complete Pokémon GO Pokedex - a list of every confirmed Pokemon in the game
 
From Abra to Zubat
 
Product: Pokemon GO | Developer: Niantic | Publisher: The Pokemon Company | Format: Android, iPhone, iPad | Genre: Action   
 
by Mark Brown

So you're playing Pokémon GO. Welcome to the club. Everyone on the internet seems to be obsessed with this brilliant augmented reality RPG.

To help you catch 'em all, as is the destiny of any Pokémon Trainer, we've put together a list of every Pokemon that has been confirmed to exist in the game.

Some, especially the legendary Pokémon, will likely be added later in special events.

As for the rest, remember that boosting your trainer level will help you find rarer critters. That Pokémon are easier to find in areas that match their type (grass in forests, water by lakes, etc), and that some nocturnal Pokémon only come out at night.

If you've spotted any that we don't have on our list, let us know in the comments below.

Ukraine Blues / los Desaparecidos slavicos / moNGO nominates UNHCHR for $$$ & Gold Medal & 1 dance with Uma / watch for astronomy announcement & planet-naming / Uncle Tim (PizzaQ!)

Click photograph for closeup

The Vleeptron Commission for Regret & Shame (VC4R&S), and moNGO, nominate the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) for Big Cash Awards. 

We understand why usually the awards go deservedly to OHCR. But it does clarify our priorities. The situation of the Dispossessed demands its rank more loudly and shriekingly than the vanishing of huge swaths of Human Rights. 

Also they got lots more Dispossessed singing for Top Slot of attention and resources than the odd 40 or 50 forest executions per month, what's that, 540 snuffed whacked humans per year? The Dispossessed are 

(a.) still alive at last census and 

(b.) number in the millions, maybe tens of millions

But I hope these UNHCHR Quesos Grandes

12	Filippo Grandi	Italy	2016–present
11	António Guterres	Portugal	2005–2015
10	Wendy Chamberlin	United States	Feb–Jun/2005 (ad interim)

get some methode Champagnoise and a big fancy party with super hors d'oeuvres and a bag of cash and a Gold Medal. I think Al Gore got to dance with Official Royal Hostess Uma Thurman. Not long afterwards, Al & Tipper divorced. Next new planet we catch in the Vleeptron system we gonna name Planet Umathurman. Her Dad was Prof. of Oriental/Eastern/Asian Religion & Philosophy @ my nearby Amherst College.

PizzaQ! Whom did/does Uma call Uncle Tim? Gourmet Pizza, U Choose toppings.

Of course the nuance here is that the Human Right at risk is The Right To Live -- a human right I value very highly, maybe it's Mio Numero Uno.

Ceaușescu and Elena C. ("The Great Scientist") had a 10-minute private trial and then out to the courtyard for a pistol bullet in both skulls.

So I guess they have chosen this vague ambiguity about the specific Human Right they protect or monitor -- I like Free Speech, but I'll shut up considerably if it's the cost of Numero Uno and a $0.19 firearm round.

They are protecting or advocating for The Right To Keep Living. I think that would clear up some unintended ambiguity.

United Nations High Commissioner 

for Staying Alive

I nominate that. But a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.


What a classy job. I want that job. If we're ever in NYC together, I'll buy him/her/it lunch (is the Oyster Bar still running?) or silicon lubricant at a joint of his/her/its choice. The entity's got to eat lunch.

Blind eye turned to arbitrary killings in Ukraine conflict: OHCHR
 
A dangerous culture of impunity flourishes in Ukraine where arbitrary killings by Ukrainian forces or separatist groups are rarely prosecuted, a United Nations human rights report said on Thursday.

Over 9400 civilians, government soldiers and Russian-backed rebel fighters have been killed in Ukraine since a 2013-2014 pro-European uprising in Kiev sparked a separatist conflict in eastern regions of the country.

The U.N. report, the first of its kind since the start of the fighting, focuses on alleged summary executions and arbitrary killings in the conflict zone carried out while no armed hostilities were taking place in the immediate vicinity.

It highlights the danger posed by the lack of accountability for unlawful killing as fighting rumbles on in the war-torn east despite a ceasefire declared nearly 18 months ago.

"There has been no accountability for the vast majority of alleged summary executions and killings committed in the conflict zone," said the report by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).

"Impunity for killings remains rampant, encouraging their perpetuation and undermining prospects for justice," it said.

It reported incidents of alleged arbitrary killings both by pro-Russian separatist groups and by Ukrainian troops, law enforcement officers and volunteer battalions in the conflict zone.

Some perpetrators have been brought to justice, OHCHR said, but investigations and prosecutions are often drawn out or stalled entirely.

"OHCHR has observed an apparent lack of motivation to investigate in some cases ... especially when it concerns acts allegedly committed by Ukrainian forces. Cover-up and political bias are not uncommon," it said.

In rebel-controlled territory, investigations appeared to be selective and did not guarantee fair trial, the report said.

In an annexe to the report it said was far from exhaustive, OHCHR listed 60 cases it has verified from January 2014 to May 2016. These included the alleged killing of surrendered soldiers or fighters, the torture and violent deaths of individuals in captivity and the alleged execution of 58 people.

"Relatives of victims are often the ones urging authorities to initiate an investigation. In some cases law enforcement officials only register the case ... and barely carry out any investigative actions on various pretexts," the report said.

Tomorrow marks the 241st anniversary of The Shot Heard Round The World -- the eruption of firearms violence that quickly blossomed into the American Revolutionary War (which We Won, so we don't sing God Save the King/Queen anymore, as Canadians still do at hockey games).

Nobody knows who fired the shot, which British soldier or which Massachusetts militia Minute Man. Nobody's even sure where the shot was fired, the Lexington Massachusetts Chamber of Commerce says it was in Lexington, the nearby Concord Chamber of Commerce says it was in Concord.

But for the next 8 years, a vast swath of North America mostly east of the Appalachian Mountains was filled with little and big gunpowder explosions, so ever since We Won, we celebrate the start of the Revolution with little and big gunpowder explosions. The neighbors have already begun frightening the shit out of our cats, and this will continue, night and day, until they run out of the cheap fireworks they bought in the neighboring state of New Hampshire.

All non-homemade fireworks used to be manufactured in the Portuguese colony of Macau. But the colonial lease finally expired, the Peoples Repubic of China took back Macau, and immediately ended the ancient and beautiful Gunpowder Cheap Firecracker & Whiz Rockets Industry. Now Macau has shifted to a more beautiful, honorable and sustainable industry, big gambling casinos.

The beautiful labels of Macau firecrackers are now valuable collectibles. They are Chinese artists' dreams of worlds they had never seen -- America mainly. But also dreams of China in Lunar New Year Festival time. Dreams of topless Mermaids. Dreams of Chicago gangsters and great Baseball Players. Dreams of Winged Giant Gorillas.

China invented gunpowder. All little boys, many little girls, and many adult drunken men and women thank China for this wonderful gift. Yesterday in New York City's Central Park, a male tourist from Virginia seems to have blown off one of his legs with a homemade gunpowder device. More typical hobbyists are missing one or two fingers. All over the USA this is an exciting week in hospital Emergency Rooms.

Cannabis kiosks planned for Jamaica airports Jamaica considering installing cannabis kiosks at airports, in an attempt to boost government revenue Saturday 2 July 2016, 10:28am 4 4 Jamaica is contemplating installing cannabis kiosks at airports and seaports, allowing tourists to get high as soon as they clear customs. “The thought is that if you are coming out of the airport, there is a kiosk you can go to. So basically whoever is coming out of immigration can go to that desk and register and get that clearance,” Cannabis Licensing Authority (CLA) chairman Hyacinth Lightbourne told the Jamaican publication The Gleaner. The kiosks will also have trained medical personnel on site, who will be responsible for issuing permits to visitors to Jamaica, which would allow them to buy cannabis. “It would primarily be for people who have a prescription and, in effect, you’re doing it for medicinal purposes with a permit from the Ministry of Health,” Lightbourne said. “If they don’t have a prescription, then they can do what we call ‘self-declare’, and this will allow them to have the two ounces while they are here.” The CLA believes that making cannabis more accessible could boost government revenues, and have cited the financial success that certain areas of North America have had from legalising cannabis. “In Colorado last year, even though it is recreational and medicinal, they sold about $1 billion worth of marijuana and collected $135 million in taxes for the state alone with a population of five million plus,” CLA member Delano Seiveright said.   5 comments MaltaToday Login Recommend Share Sort by Best Join the discussion… J Sammut • 14 hours ago Imagine how reassuring it would be on a plane whose crew had just smoked a few joints before takeoff. 1 • Reply • Share › Dr. David Pollina • a day ago Just think of the possibilities...

Longtime Vleeptroidz may recall that several years ago, on the confident advice of the Official Vleeptron Footie Expert, we bet our Life Savings on Brazil to win the World Cup. 

This is why we now live in our car.

Fast-Forward to Right Now. As about 22 percent of the population of Island, Vleeptron Dude has flown IcelandAir (with a quick stopover to wallow in the Blue Lagoon volcanic sulfur mud) to Saint Denis, France to cheer on our favorite Footie team, who have astonished the world by beating the shit out of several teams to advance to the Quarter Finals of the EUFA Cup.
 

... but there is no joy in Mudville
Mighty Casey has struck out.

It's Halftime, and things look megableak for my Viking Pillagers. Using trickery and deceit and a Latvian referee who took a bribe of unpasteurized soft bleu fromage, France is up 5-nil.

BUT there's still a Whole Half -- and maybe MORE, 'cause these things can't end in a tie.

Dum spiro spero. And again, I've bet my Life Savings, every króna (all the coins have fish on them), on ISLAND. I got GREAT odds with my Internet Turf Accountant. If Island can pull this one out of the Green Jaws of Froggy Doom, I'll be richer than Elon Musk.

Win or Lose, it's all S.W.M.B.O.'s fault. She has an old professor buddy from Caledonia who has addicted her to this game (which is unknown in the United States of America, except for its strange little Foreign Kickers who, often barefoot, kick The Extra Point in Our Game, American Football).

Now about 61 percent of our Big Flat Screen Hi-Def Smart TV time is The Footie -- mostly English Premier League, but Furrin Euro stuph if her big sweaty multiply-tattooed Anglo-Saxons are playing.

You still have time to bet YOUR Life Savings on Island -- and now you'll get REALLY great odds, like 382-to-1.

Marijuana compound removes
toxic Alzheimer's protein
from brain

An active compound in marijuana called tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has been found to promote the removal of toxic clumps of amyloid beta protein in the brain, which are thought to kickstart the progression of Alzheimer's disease.

The finding supports the results of previous studies that found evidence of the protective effects of cannabinoids, including THC, on patients with neurodegenerative disease.

"Although other studies have offered evidence that cannabinoids might be neuroprotective against the symptoms of Alzheimer's, we believe our study is the first to demonstrate that cannabinoids affect both inflammation and amyloid beta accumulation in nerve cells," says David Schubert from the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in California.

Schubert and his colleagues tested the effects of THC on human neurons grown in the lab that mimic the effects of Alzheimer's disease.

THC is not only responsible for the majority of marijuana's psychological effects -- including the high -- thanks to its natural pain-relieving properties, it’s also been touted as an effective treatment for the symptoms of a variety of diseases/disorders from HIV and chemotherapy to chronic pain, post traumatic stress disorder, and stroke.
 
Researchers are working on breeding genetically modified yeast that can produce THC more efficiently than it would be to make synthetic versions.

The compound works by passing from the lungs to the bloodstream, where it attaches to two types of receptors, cannabinoid receptor (CB) 1 and 2, which are found on cell surfaces all over the body.

In the brain, these receptors are most concentrated in neurons associated with pleasure, memory, thinking, coordination and time perception, and usually bind with a class of lipid molecules called endocannabinoids produced by the body during physical activity to promote cell-to-cell signalling in the brain.

Over the years, research has suggested that by binding to these receptors, THC could be having another effect on ageing brains, because it appears to helps the body clear out the toxic accumulations -- or 'plaques' -- of amyloid beta.

No one is entirely sure what causes Alzheimer’s disease, but it is thought to result from a build-up of two types of lesions: amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.

Amyloid plaques sit between the neurons as dense clusters of beta-amyloid molecules -- a sticky type of protein that easily clumps together -- and neurofibrillary tangles are caused by defective tau proteins that clump up into a thick, insoluble mass in the neurons.

It’s not clear why these lesions begin to appear in the brain, but studies have linked inflammation in the brain tissue to the proliferation of plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. So if we can find something that eases brain inflammation while at the same time encourages the body to clear out these lesions, we could be on the way to finding the first effective treatment for Alzheimer’s.

In 2006, researchers at the Scripps Research Institute found that THC inhibits the formation of amyloid plaques by blocking the enzyme in the brain that produces them, and now Schubert and his team have demonstrated that it can also eliminate a dangerous inflammatory response from the nerve cells, ensuring their survival.

"Inflammation within the brain is a major component of the damage associated with Alzheimer's disease, but it has always been assumed that this response was coming from immune-like cells in the brain, not the nerve cells themselves," says study member Antonio Currais.

"When we were able to identify the molecular basis of the inflammatory response to amyloid beta, it became clear that THC-like compounds that the nerve cells make themselves may be involved in protecting the cells from dying."

So far this phenomenon has only been demonstrated in neurons in the lab. The next step will be for Schubert and his team to observe the link between THC and reduced inflammation and plaque build-up in a clinical trial. They have reportedly found a drug candidate called J147 that appears to have the same effects as THC, so they may be able to test the effects of THC without the U.S. federal government's forbidding such tests.

The results have been published in "Aging and Mechanisms of Disease."

eine kleine Jupitermagnetospheremusik / the Music of the Magnetosphere / ooooooEEEEEEEuuuuuuu

Full Screen mode, then Play.

In two distinct encounters in recent days,

* the postal delivery person brought me a very pretty postcard from a friend in Nepal and

* the NASA space probe Juno pierced the magnetosphere of the Gas Giant planet Jupiter.

Juno was Jupiter's wife, but he fooled around a lot, and had to turn human girls into swans when Juno unexpectedly showed up.

The magnetosphere is the zone surrounding Jupiter which contains Jupiter's magnetic field. Jupiter's magnetic field is intense, powerful, so the magnetosphere extends far from the planet itself. 

(Juno will go into orbit around Jupiter on 4 July. I don't know if some Flag-Simple nerd planned it that way, or if it's just an accident of the necessary mechanics of sending robots to other planets. Probably it's just a coincidence.)

For further details about how far Jupiter's magnetosphere extends from Jupiter, q.v. The Law of Inverse Squares.)

Click to enlarge.

Juno sensed this event in several sensitive ways (but the fundamental new sensitivity is that we've never sent a machine this close and intimately to Jupiter before), sent the data back to Earth, and computers and their pet boffins turned it into music. Music from Jupiter of Juno's encountering Jupiter's magnetosphere. Click on the video at post top to hear the tune.

Wikipedia:
 
Gabriel, comte de Montgomery, seigneur de Lorges (5 May 1530 – 26 June 1574), a French nobleman, was a captain of the Scots Guards of King Henry II of France. He is remembered for mortally injuring King Henry II in a jousting accident and subsequently converting to Protestantism, the faith that the Scots Guard sought to suppress. He became a leader of the Huguenots.

On either 30 June or 1 July 1559, during a jousting match to celebrate the Peace of Cateau Cambrésis between Henry II and his longtime Habsburg enemies, a splinter of wood from Montgomery's shattered lance pierced Henry's eye and entered his brain, mortally injuring him. From his deathbed Henry absolved Montgomery of any blame, but, finding himself disgraced, Montgomery retreated to his estates in Normandy. There he studied theology and converted to Protestantism, making him an enemy of the state.

In 1562, Montgomery allied himself with another Protestant convert, Louis I de Bourbon, prince de Condé. He was one of the few refugees to survive the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre after a wounded Huguenot swam across the Seine to warn him that rioting had begun. He took control of Bourges and during September and October defended Rouen from the Royal Army. A price was put on his head, but he managed to escape to England. The queen mother, Catherine de' Medici, asked Queen Elizabeth I for his extradition, but Elizabeth refused.

Montgomery returned to France with a fleet in an attempt to relieve the Siege of La Rochelle in 1573.

The following year he attempted an insurrection in Normandy, but was captured, taken to Paris, and sentenced to death. On 26 June 1574, as he was about to be beheaded, Montgomery was informed that a royal edict had proclaimed that his property would be confiscated and his children deprived of their titles.

A freely adapted version of Montgomery's life is told in Alexandre Dumas' novel The Two Dianas.

He married Isabeau de La Touche (1550–1593), by whom he had 4 sons and 4 daughters.
