The Event Horizon Around the Black Hole Called the Petrol Tank Fill Tube: Chapter Darkened Energy
News you can use: black holes, truth or friction?
Atlantis over the Atlantic
On the way through U.S. Independence Day celebrations, we look to the last Space Shuttle flight with fond memories and a solitary tear of joy.
Time to look at Libya and ponder naval possibilities repeated in the 1950s…
A node in the knode in the know
Used an autonomous robot to construct a 3D printer 3D printer that printed out an identical autonomous robot this morning.
Not quite a closed-loop system.
Have to figure out how to get the autonomous robot to explore and extract its own raw materials.
Either that, or teach the robot alchemy.
What the Heck (Ben, that is)!
Cyberwarfare 2.0
In more humour news, rolling blackouts swept across Chinese metropolises and countrysides today, local police and citizen guardians arresting or killing anyone making comments, affirmative or negatory, in regards to the rumours that China was under cybersiege. In related news, U.S. securities shot up in value, with the dollar reaching a new high against all major currencies. The Federal Reserve used the higher dollar to cancel debt owned by China, Japan and several other sovereign nations, allowing the U.S. to make immediate and drastic diplomatic relationship changes. India and Brazil once again found themselves caught in the cold grips of a virtual war of words in which they were sideline commentators unwilling to put their nuclear arsenals on full alert lest they interfere with upcoming cricket or futbol matches. The World Court declared China’s hoarding of special chemicals and minerals illegal, opening the U.N. debate on sanctioning and declaring 21st June 2011 the official start date of World Cyberwarfare 2.0 Day.
Scientists announced the recreation of a comedian, W.C. Fields, whose body had unknowingly been well-preserved through alcoholism and available for DNA analysis and reconstruction lo these many decades. Sales of pure grain alcohol skyrocketed, with buyers claiming they were preserving their bodies for future revivi..vivi…[hiccup!]
vivification, whatever that means.
After the recent devastating earthquakes rocked Haiti, U.S. researchers there found the secret formula for zombification. Today, U.S. drones dropped silent “bombs” of zombification fluid in several major cities, primarily near the fortresses, palaces, resorts, getaways and government buildings where prominent entertainers and military/political leaders work, reside or hide.
Therefore, any local/regional/global news you see or hear, where popular talking heads are babbling on about subjects of little to no interest to most of us, is probably under the direct mind control of the extraterrestrial aliens operating the U.S. government in bunkers deep beneath the U.S. Capitol and Supreme Court buildings and operating the world governments in shelters deep beneath the U.N. Building.
Contrary to popular rumours, the bombing of the World Trade Center was not a terrorist act but rather the continuing intergalactic battle for control of Earth. In the aftermath of the WTC/Pentagon attacks, aliens from Sector W2II3 of the Uncategorised Quadrant took over Earth because the aliens from Sector WVB1991 and their world-control equipment were effectively wiped out of commission.
Yes, the Soviets may have been part of Area 51 but Area 51 was always supposed to be a ruse devised by the Cold War leaders to divert the attention of humans not yet under zombie control or under the influence of expanding mass media hypnosis.
World governments have still not been able to locate the invisible alien control center in Afghanistan, despite millennia of deciphering hieroglyphic markings found in that part of Earth. Legend has it that the invisible alien control center will give not only eternal life but also the ability to move galaxies at will, making domination of this planet seem like a kindergarten sandbox fight.
That’s all the humourumour news not fit to print in grocery store rag mags or professional comedy websites.
Should Atheists Remove “God” From Their Internal Dictionary?
Here we sit, 1000 years from now, a slew of offworld colonies establishing their own subcultures.
Where is heaven, hell, or nirvana?
Belief systems of many sorts dominate the news – celebrity worship, pop culture worship – as they always have.
Between your time and now, global weather changes on Earth reconfigured political boundaries out of necessity.
Naysayers and doomsday futurists continue their struggle for the attention of the masses. Humour is lost in translation.
Computing systems tap our brains for networked problem-solving.
The legal definition of a body has cycled along with public opinion.
Brain-machine interfaces have allowed crime prevention authorities to stay even with or just one step behind inventive criminal organisations.
Our personalities now live forever through expansion of the range of stimuli sensors that define us, including social media bots that absorbed our ancestors’ online postings and begat virtual selves similar to but not exactly like ourselves.
Old race and class based arguments gave way to genetically-engineered beings adapted to specific environmental conditions, including aquatic humans and humans designed to live on nonEarth planetary bodies. General adaptability is considered technologically backward, regardless of one’s genetic heritage.
The top 0.0001% of the population has more wealth than the remaining 99.9999%.
However, unlike your time, wealth is now measured on a happiness scale rather than a monetary one – the obsessive collection of money and objects was outlawed a long time ago, with medical advances allowing doctors to remove hoarding behaviour before birth. In addition to genocide and geocide, suicide is a fully-recognised form of population control.
Sexual taboos no longer exist because of species-wide birth control mandates. The ratio of gender subtypes is carefully controlled.
Politicians still use smoke and mirrors to motivate crowds for the personal gain of politicians and their cronies.
The E-Book of Galactic Records includes a section of how long different genetically-engineered humans can survive in the vacuum of space, as well as the fastest speed at which a whole body survived unharmed in transit from one space station to another.
The first human composed of antiparticles conceives and gives birth to an antiparticle baby.
Dark matter and dark energy were just more layers of the intertwined multiuniverse system we continue to uncover and describe for the next generation of scientific explorers.
Destruction of a human body in the activity of sport is forbidden, creating underground bloodsport leagues, while the majority watch and play sports with virtual teams of players who appear to have social relationships with virtual actors in other areas of mass media.
Until genetic specialisation reached critical mass, removal of children from large public educational institutes was granted only as long as the children received a required daily exposure to mass media and passed a yearly sub/culture test.
Some genetically-engineered humans can no longer speak, see or hear like humans of your time, having no need for those communication methods in modern society. Brain wave pattern amplification and attenuation reduced the necessity for archaic sensors and instruments that tended to get in the way of efficient socialisation.
Thus, new symbologies replaced old vocabularies and created a separation between the species that performed plays, wrote books, played musical instruments and shouted verbal commands on ball fields and the new species genotypes that excel in skills unimagined in your time.
That’s all the news for today. Time for my half-sol of meditation.
Entschuldigen Sie, Bitte. There’s A Bitter Taste In My Mouth.
Pardon me while I dig a sprout from between my teeth. Sehr gut!
On condition of anonymity, after receiving a hefty bribe, a U.S. government official allegedly told me that the words “France” and anything French have been banned from the official AmED [American English Dictionary]. Further, the U.S. government has retracted its claim to have freed France the country near Spain from Germany during WWII and has ceded the country near Spain to Germany in exchange for Germany extending an unlimited use of the words “twitter” and “facebook” to German language speakers/writers.
Congrats to the Danes, who proved that the Viking spirit is still alive in the name of Tycho Brahe.
I’m a little behind on my big behind in thanking people who’ve interacted with me in business or purely social situations lately, including Dr. Tom, Cheryl, Sandy, Imaria, Kristine, Ray, Kisha, Billie, Dawn, Leonard, Johnnie, Marlin, Jason, Lativia and several who are working on nursing or business management college coursework.
Congrats to Chestney for being the first person on her mother’s side of the family to get her high school diploma – we’re proud of you, young lady.
Welcome to the new era of CV gaps – I miss the old days when employers such as myself readily accepted excuses for employment gaps like: “The period of unemployment from 1969 to 1991 on my resumé? I was following the Grateful Dead.” We had more varied workplaces which enhanced creativity rather than goosestepping employees afraid to take time off for miniretirements.
C’est la vista.
A little bird told me that a rocket team has already secretly launched a small vehicle toward the Moon which will deposit the first Earth-to-Moon food delivery package, possibly containing fresh bread and muffins from David and Cheryl Walker of Atlanta Bread Company. The first humans to retrieve the package will find a winning lottery ticket. Or something like that.
Time to apply a little elbow grease and get back to work.

I leave you with this spot of humour:
A redneck with a bucket full of live fish was approached recently by a game warden in Central Mississippi as he started to drive his boat away from a lake.
The game warden asked the man, “May I see your fishing license please?”
“Naw, sir,” replied the redneck. “I don’t need none of them there papers. These here are my pet fish.”
“Pet fish??”
“Yep. Once a week, I bring these here fish o’mine down to the lake and let ’em swim ’round for a while. Then when I whistle, they swim right back into my net and I take ’em home.”
“What a line of bull….you’re under arrest.”
The redneck said, “It’s the truth, Mr. Gov’ment Man. I’ll show ya! We do this all the time!!”
“WE do, now, do WE?” smirked the warden. “PROVE it!”
The redneck released the fish into the lake and stood and waited.
After a few minutes, the warden said, “Well?”
“Well, WHUT?” said the redneck.
The warden asked, “When are you going to call them back?”
“Call who back?”
“The FISH,” replied the warden!
“Whut fish?” asked the redneck.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
We may not be as smart as some city slickers, but we ain’t as dumb as some government employees. You can say what you want about the South, but we never hear of anyone retiring and moving north.
Undocking Attitude
There…is…a…slow…Internet…connection…today.
While listening to a press conference on NASA TV and estimating how much of the engineering analysis is boiled down for lay reporters, I wonder how soon one of the talking heads (the one in the center) will have a heart attack, his earlobes clearly pinched on the bottom.
My hat’s off to all the personnel involved in the development, politicking, deployment and management of the US Space Shuttle and ISS program from the 1960s to today and beyond.
Meanwhile, I’m amazed at the advancement of medical and astronomical knowledge.
Time to meditate.
Eat Your Porridge
A “fundraiser.”
That’s all it was?
The way of my species.
The only way.
One planet.
One word.
Smoke and mirrors, diversions in the fog of war.
But I have nothing to sell, no achievements to tout.
Everything I say here is used to say something elsewhere.
Voluntarily networking personal data.
But that’s all in the past.
Moments that were not mine.
And moments to be?
Finding the dot of a lone star tick is actually an IP stacked node.
Lyme disease is used as a mask for a tracer.
Weed out the weak.
Feel the pulse, the rhythm of nature.
Don’t say taxes are legal thievery because the statement classifies all those who work for or receive benefits from the government as accessories.
But in nature, crime does not exist.
Opportunity is sagaciousness.
Competitive intelligence.
Holding back on exposing falsities to observe the players’ reaction to obvious lies.
Let opponents twist facts into ludicrudity.
Watching governments turn stories, like the Stieg Larsson trilogy, into their version of reality.
Wondering how a performance artist was able to keep animal skin/fur/feather grafts alive and fully integrated with tattoos on the body.
14,246 days to go – the current 1,000-day project milestone on schedule with subtasks ahead of schedule, but not too much.
Next up: a redefinition of morality, removing many players from participating in the second 1,000-day block.
Some want to keep Obama in power to complete the semi-peaceful transition of all the countries of Africa and the Middle East into democratic-like states, which in turn will lead to the transformation of political entities yet to be named.
But what to do with Joe Biden, a very unlikely VP-turned-president in 2016?
Who really believes in terror alert status?
Instead, post signs on freeways like “Today’s chance of dying from a collision with a DWI driver is xx%” or “Did you know that you will be held responsible for your teenage child’s texting-while-driving killing of a family of five later today?”
At airports, post statistics that clearly point out the relatively tiny chance of dying or getting maimed in any way while flying, especially by your plane crashing.
Do you know how many people die annually from getting crushed by their garage doors?
Do you know how many people die annually from getting infected by dirty fingernail files?
Do you know someone who was killed by a falling coconut or a dull chainsaw blade?
The food in your refrigerator is more likely to kill you than a sleeping air traffic controller.
Ireland is more likely to unite than the new Canadian PM to have an effect on world politics.
How many people placed Putin, Jintao or Obama in their political positions, by vote and/or financial contribution?
What are the Brazilian and Indian leaders saying to each other right now through tediously obscure diplomatic channels?
Do people watch the NBA or NHL playoffs because they want to or because they think they should?
Are you inventing products that improve efficiency without relying on rare earth elements?
Those with a long view already have.
We’ll force the short view folks to use up their rare earth material but first we’ll box them out of the third 1,000-day milestone achievement.
Tick, tock. I hear the chimes.
Time to say good afternoon to ya while I continue to play the ignorant fuel.
A tip of my hat to the last enemy combatant of WWI – may we learn a lesson from a pacified warrior!
WIMPs – are they part of your future?
Meanwhile, back at the laboratory…
