-> Russian scientists from the city of Novosibirsk, Siberia, made a

->
-> Siberian scientists believe that addiction to alcohol and
-> narcotics, as well as depression, suicidal thoughts and
-> psychosomatic diseases occur when an individual loses his or her
-> interest in life. The absence of the will to live is caused with
-> decreasing production of endorphins -- the substance, which is

-> receives a physical punishment, whipping that is, it will stir up
-> endorphin receptors, activate the "production of happiness" and
-> eventually remove depressive feelings.
"Doctorinatrix, I've been a verrrry naughty boy. I know you said
I shouldn't get depressed, but I disobeyed you and became very, very,
very, very depressed, here, I'll pull my pants down."
-> Russian scientists recommend the following course of the whipping
-> therapy: 30 sessions of 60 whips on the buttocks in every
-> procedure. A group of drug addicts volunteered to test the new
-> method of treatment: the results can be described as good and
-> excellent.
Is that 60 strikes on each side (separately), or 30 on each side
(separately), or 60 on both sides (simultaneously)? And what type of
whip? And what length whip? And what color whip?
-> Doctor of Biological Sciences, Sergei Speransky, is a very well
-> known figure in Novosibirsk. The doctor became one of the authors

And with AC or DC current?
-> The professor used the self-flagellation method to cure his

-> the help of physical tortures too.
Self-flagellation's no fun at all! It's hardly worth faking two heart
attacks just so you can get a prescription to buy your own whip.

As published in The Russian Journal Of Heterosexual Duhhhhhh!
-> The effect is astounding:
It would be more astounding if you whipped someone 60 times and
there _wasn't_ some effect. The only effect of whipping which
might astound me would be if it causes someone to yawn.

Far be it from me to tell a doctor how to do his job, but there

-> The whipping therapy has not become a new discovery in the history

-> at mental hospitals. They made injections of brimstone and peach
-> oil mixture to inspire mentally unbalanced patience with a will to
-> live. A patient would suffer from horrible pain in the body after
-> such an injection, but he or she would change their attitude to
-> life for the better afterwards.
Um, well, sulfazine (powdered elemental sulfur in peach oil) wasn't
really given to Soviet political prisoners for that reason. My
understanding is that it's a powerful pyrogenic -- i.e. it causes
an incredibly intense burning pain 24 hours a day and it gets worse
whenever you move any part of your body -- and they'd just shoot
people full of this stuff for months or years at a time to keep them
from making trouble. Accounts claim that Soviet prisoners would
just lie there in agony, so afraid to move that they'd starve to
death if the other prisoners didn't feed them. It was just an
extraordinarily cruel way to keep "mental patients" from ever asking
the staff any questions about why they couldn't go home.
Sort of the same reason American mental institutions used to give out
free lobotomies, but with the delicious zing of peach oil.
-> "People might probably think of me as a masochist," Dr. Speransky
-> said. "But I can assure you that I am not a classic masochist at

I would say that if being whipped makes you feel good, you're not
just a classic masochist, you're a world-class masochist. Letting your
gal pinch you playfully, maybe a light spank, that's classic. Getting
59 more deep-tissue bruises after the first one, that's hella masochist.

Because the point of a rack is to stretch someone so that the whipping
will hurt more, dummy. There's no point to using a rack by itself,
'cause that just causes joint damage without you having the fun.
And if you are not being hit with whip you can not be having the fun!

How do they do castration that many times? Do Russian ones grow back?
By the way, Taly, I figured out why your articles make my newsreader
explode. You know that extra space in the middle of your Real Name?
You need to take that extra space and tell Google News to stick it
in between the two items in your References: header, which currently says:

^^
see, colliding Message-IDs.
You are allowing Google News to post non-RFC-compliant versions of
your articles, and therefore, it's all your fault. Section 2.2.5
of RFC1036 clearly states:

-> message should have a "References" line containing the text of the
-> original "References" line, a blank, and the Message-ID of the

My article had one item on the References: header, and when you posted
your followup, Google News glued on the second Message-ID, without
the space mandated by RFC1036, so now you're going to RFC Jail where
you'll get the Usenet Death Penalty and in RFC Jail your last meal

this is utter nonsense. all you need to do to block my telepathic
castration powers is to wear extremely hairy underwear. it's been
pretty well established by sci-fi shows that hair blocks telepathy,
which is why the extremely powerful telepathic aliens, like the
Talosians, are all bald. Vulcans, although telepathic, are *wimps*;
they usually have to touch people's branes to do a mind-meld. compare
that to the Talosians: they can freaking CREATE STAR FLEET ADMIRALS
LIGHT-YEARS AWAY, with nothing but their minds!
other teevee shows concur. "Angel", for example, had some bald
telepaths working for Wolfram and Hart. on the other hand, it's true
that Buffy became telepathic when she was splattered with blood from a
(bald!) telepathic demon... but on the other hand, she almost went
INSANE from having hair-modified thoughts.

->
-> MosNews
->

-> depression and suicidal tendencies, the Izvestia daily reports.
Ah, now it's a "group" of scientists. Uh oh. They've started some
sort of private club where you have to be a mad scientist _and_ kinky to
join. They better hope Archimedes Plutonium never finds out where it is
or he'll be throwing his candy bar wrappers into the iron maiden.
-> The name of the report delivered at the international conference
-> on new methods of treating addictions is "Pain affliction as a
-> method of treatment for addictive behavior and other
-> manifestations of non-vitalistic activity". Scientists claim that
-> drug addiction, alcoholism, suicidal behavior and psychosomatic
-> disorders are all caused by a lack of zest for life. When a
-> patient is caned, the body starts producing endorphins -- happiness
-> hormones -- and life seems attractive again.
"Most people suddenly become less unhappy the moment the torture stops!"
-> The recommended treatment course is 30 sessions of 60 cane
-> strokes, delivered on the buttocks by a person of average build.
Now _this_ is a new detail, the "no fat dominatrixes" stipulation.
Seems like a pointless restriction. I'd think that heavy and skinny
people would be just as skilled at flicking that rod as any Catholic nun
who's just converted her ruler to Metric. The length and diameter
of the cane should make more difference than the waist size of the
fat sadist involved. Also the mood of the sadist is important.
Hint to Russians: If you're depressed, you don't want to get caned by
another depressed person. Especially if they're full of vodka.
Cranky, drunken sadists are the type of people who give sadists a
bad reputation.
30 sessions of 60 strokes is a lot. That's 1800. Actually, it's
more, because they always lose count halfway through. And then there's
the "fifty-nine and a half... fifty-nine and three-quarters..." part.
-> The method has been tested on volunteers and the results are said
-> to be positive.
"Okay, okay, I heartily endorse your method, now pleeeeeease let me go!"
-> The scientists claim the effect of the treatment is even greater
-> if a patient is caned by a doctor of the opposite sex.
...building on the scientists' previous research, "There Are No Gay
People In Russia."
-> The author of the method, Doctor Sergei Speransky told the
-> newspaper that people often asked if he was a masochist. "No,
-> I am not a classic masochist," the doctor said.
He should at least be a _classy_ masochist. He could get caned
with a genuine ivory rod with a teak handle, to the beat of live
music performed by the Moscow Sadistic Symphony Orchestra.
If he keeps denying he likes being caned hundreds of times while being
caned hundreds of times, I'm going to stop taking Doctor Spanksky seriously.
He should be proud of his extreme masochism, rather than being unwilling
to admit it -- nobody likes a self-hating masochist.

I'm fascinated by the way this article keeps becoming deviant in
different ways. It's like a game of "Telephone", but with a spanking
machine involved. I tracked down the below article on Ananova.com
(a British site which posts mangled, unattributed little news stories,
about 50% of which smell made up) after seeing it referenced on
News24.com under the headline "Spank The Blues". (But sadly, it
wasn't about Patrick Lalime finally getting to play hockey.)

"Manifestations of non-vitalistic activity"? Shouldn't that sentence
also include a few "subluxations", some "qi" and either "vril" or "odyle"?

No, corporal punishment, by definition, makes you unhappy.
It's corporal entertainment that makes you all giddy.
I wouldn't trust whoever wrote this version of this article
to be able to put porn tapes into the proper categories in
my porn store, let alone beat me with an ugly stick. By the
way, I don't actually have a porn store.
-> He said: "The treatment works. I'm not sadistic, at least not in
-> the classical sense, but I do advocate caning."
Heyyyyy! The last two versions of the article had him saying he
wasn't a masochist. And you can't not be a masochist _and_ not be
a sadist.
This furthers my theory that "masochism" and "sadism" are synonyms
if you work at a newspaper. Someone should teach writers a thing or
two about how to not seem so clueless about perversion. Here, clip
and save this handy guide to the terminology:
* If you whip someone else, you're a sadist.
* If someone else whips you, you're a masochist.
* If you whip yourself, you're lonely. (Call me.)
-> He recommends a standard treatment course of 30 sessions delivered
-> on the buttocks by a person of average build.
Again, Dr. Spankalot's "no fat sadists" policy raises the question of
whether someone who is _severely_ depressed needs to be treated by someone
who is unusually average, or by someone who is larger than average.
-> His colleague Dr Marina Chuhrova, who also took part in preparing
-> the report, said she had 10 patients she caned regularly.
->
-> She added: "At first they didn't like it, but when they started to

But how come none of these news sites has a video clip of the clinic's
commercial? I want to hear her say "I used to not even know the word
'gummikrankenschwester', but now I am one."
-> The Russian team says they are now charging for the caning
-> sessions getting 57 pounds per patient for a standard treatment.
Uh huh. "Standard treatment". You pay more for "Treatment with full release".
Don't even ask how much "Treatment around the world" costs.
-> In a new paper entitled 'Pain affliction as a method of treatment

I'd hardly call torture a "new" method of rehabilitation. I mean, two

mmm, subluxation. that's the thing where your spinal cord is travelling
just below the speed of light, instead of faster than light the way it
normally does. a properly functioning nervous system always travels
*backwards* in time, not forwards.
really, spanking therapy needs its own mystical jargon, since the other
jargon words are all associated with other forms of therapy:

I think he's not so much saying "NO FAT CHYX" as he's suggesting that
you don't want someone more muscular than normal, because they may hit
you too hard and cause your eyeballs to fire out of their sockets and
land in the fruit salad.
and if that happens, what is he going to stab?
By the way, Taly, this time Google News put each "References:" item
in your headers on a line by itself instead of mashing them together
in a bad way. However, there's still an extra space in your "real name".
But at least Google's new format for your "References:" header isn't

I'm pretty sure spankological emreddenment already has its own
mystical jargon. However, it cannot be explained, only demonstrated.
The Naughty Spot technique, on the other hand, doesn't have any
two-dollar words associated with it. It's not even a real spot.
It's just an imaginary locus of spotness, like the way the Equator
isn't really painted on the stupid Atlantic Ocean. So be careful
when walking around because you might step on a Naughty Spot without
knowing it, and then you'd be punished by not being given your
happy fun spanking. Not even a Russian would spank you.

First off, naughty children are spanked all the time by people much
bigger than them, and it doesn't do any harm to them except to turn
them all into psychotic serial killers, game show hosts, and people
who masturbate during reruns of that episode of "The Goodies" where
they mate Rolf Harris to another Rolf Harris.
Secondly, skinny guys look silly when they take off their shirts
and put on an executioner's mask. They need to invent arm chaps
that will let the skinny guy have a bare chest but still pad his biceps.
This is why, back in the days of the Inquisition, they all wore those
baggy sack dresses when torturing people -- it was really a secret society
of wimpy twig-boys brutalizing strong men they were jealous of, and in fact,
the Inquisition was originally called "Revenge Of The Nerds".
The recent shoddy imitation of it -- Abu Ghraib -- was originally
called "Fat Guy Goes Nutzoid", except they recast it to replace the
fat guy with that evil sphere-headed woman.
Thirdly, your eyeballs wouldn't pop out because you'd keep your
eyelids shut pretty tight, though technically that would be
unnecessary because you'd also have your head wrapped in duct tape
to keep you from getting a good look at the inside of the olive drab
plastic sandbag.
Fourthly, you are spending _way_ too much time thinking about this.
