Lockdown-flouting speakeasies popping up throughout Manhattan

Wednesday, May 13, 2020

Speak-easies are back in New York. And not the tourist traps that have been filling perfectly good storage space in the backs of bodegas, pizzerias and pet stores across Williamsburg for a decade — but actual illicit drinking dens.

Bored During Self-Isolation? 100+ Tips for Staying Entertained and Engaged

Saturday, May 9, 2020

The novel coronavirus and COVID-19 have turned the entire world upside-down. We’re stuck at home without much to do, and there’s only so much Netflix you can watch before you start feeling cabin fever.

It might be months, or even years, before society goes back to normal—if it ever does—so we have no choice but to get used to how things are now. And that means finding ways to keep ourselves entertained without leaving the house.

GOVERNACIDE: Ten Point Plan To Stop Covid-19 in Its Tracks – LewRockwell

Thursday, May 7, 2020

1. Focus on the most at-risk groups for mortal outcomes: nursing home residents; African Americans; hospital workers; the very old whose immune systems are not up to par; the very young who have an undeveloped immune system.  Focus on educating nursing home directors, hospital infection control officers, African American community leaders, school nurses.  Don’t rely on top-down instruction from government sources.  Utilize local resources to promote public health, sanitation, and immunity.  Gain the public’s trust via education.  Government offers no drugs or vaccines and was unprepared for this current epidemic, not even having sufficient masks, blood testing or sanitation practices in place.

HEALTH: Could Retroviruses Play a Role in COVID-19?

Wednesday, May 6, 2020

Judy Mikovits, Ph.D. is a cellular and molecular biologist, 1 researcher and was the founding research director of the Whittemore Peterson Institute that researches and treats chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in Reno, Nevada. She is likely one of the most qualified scientists in the world to comment on this disease because of her groundbreaking research in molecular biology and virology.

Mikovits suspects COVID-19 may in fact be a type of vaccine-derived or vaccine-induced retroviral infection.

“I don’t believe [COVID-19] is infection from without,” she says. “I believe the spread across [210] countries4 is from injection, and there’s enough evidence to support that.”

“Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinburg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.” Colonel Jessep in A Few Good Men played by Jack Nicholson

College student is shocked that her professor can read her ‘private’ conversations on Zoom | Daily Mail Online

Monday, April 27, 2020

An American college student was horrified to learn — too late — that her professor can read all of the ‘private’ messages she sends on Zoom.

The young woman, Faith, has been trading casual messages — with some profanity — with other students, thinking that that the words were kept between them.

But when she received an email from her angry professor, she learned that the educator has been reading what she wrote all along.

China global cover-up concerns after it filed patent for drug that helps some patients recover | Daily Mail Online

Saturday, April 25, 2020

China tried to patent potential coronavirus drug Remsvidir the DAY AFTER Beijing confirmed virus was transmissable between humans

  • On January 21 a patent for commercial use of Remdesivir was filed in China
  • The application was made by the top-secret Wuhan Institute of Virology bio-lab
  • It is at the centre of concerns about a possible leak of the coronavirus disease
  • Leaked documents shown that China officials who knew they faced an epidemic delayed warning the public for six days

By IAN BIRRELL FOR THE MAIL ON SUNDAY

China filed a patent for a drug seen as one of the best potential weapons against coronavirus the day after it confirmed human transmission of the disease.

The revelation that it moved so fast fuels concerns about a cover-up of the pandemic when it erupted in Wuhan last year, and suggests that China’s understanding of the virus was far advanced from the impression given by its public stance.

Last night, Tom Tugendhat, chairman of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee, joined the growing global clamour for a full, independent inquiry into China’s role.

Coronavirus & U.S. Cities — Moving Out Cities and Not Coming Back | National Review

Saturday, April 25, 2020

A possible wave of Americans moving out of cities, a future pandemic, and the political divide is likely to be altered from this coronavirus crisis.

# – # – # – # – #

Circumstantial?

Seems like the WuFlu may have come to the USA via Italy but in my mind there is little doubt where these viruses originate. Now the question is was it a deliberate bio strike by the PRC? No fatalities in Hong Kong or Peking. And this ended the liberty activist demonstrations in HK. This evidence is circumstantial, to be sure, but it all points toward the Wuhan labs. Thanks to the Chinese coverup, we may never have direct, conclusive evidence—intelligence rarely works that way—but Americans justifiably can use common sense to follow the inherent logic of events to their likely conclusion.

Convenient or deliberate?

The fix is obviously in on Cuomo’s ‘investigation’ of nursing-home horrors

Friday, April 24, 2020

The concerned CEO made another plea the next day, asking if he could send the home’s suspected coronavirus cases to the field hospital at the Javits Center or the USNS Comfort. No dice, came the answer.

So much for the claims from Gov. Cuomo and his health czar, Dr. Howard Zucker, that overwhelmed facilities just needed to ask for help if handed patients they couldn’t safely handle — thanks to Zucker’s March 25 mandate that all homes accept coronavirus-positive cases.

We expect more damning evidence will surface in the days ahead.

41 Arguments Against the Drug War

The popular website Eat This, Not That! recently ran an article titled “41 Ways Alcohol Ruins Your Health.” Here is the article’s brief introduction: If you like to have a drink once in a while, chances are you’re having a few more than usual, given the fact that we’re all self-isolating.

Alcohol is a diuretic, and when consumed in sufficient quantities, it leaches water from all over your body, including your brain. The result is often a crippling headache, muscle pain, and a thirst you just can’t seem to quench, no matter how much water or how many sugar- and calorie-packed sports drinks you guzzle down.

Zookeepers Share How Animals Are Reacting To The Lack Of Visitors

Monday, April 20, 2020

Staying home in quarantine with your loved ones feels like living in a zoo now and then. Nobody said it’d be easy. Meanwhile, the real zoos out there have closed their doors to visitors. And that means that porcupines, cheetahs, rhinos, and all the bestest boys and girls are having no proper social life.

For a lot of our animals, having the ability to interact with guests is actually extremely important. Even for primates to be able to play with kids through the glass, they are missing out on a lot of enrichment. Guests keep a lot of the monkeys entertained. I watch our guests all day long show our marmosets and capuchins selfie cameras and they LOVE to see their reflection. Guests will also show videos on their phones to animals and the monkeys totally enjoy it.
