Disinformation
Disinformation is basically misinformation
coupled with malicious intent.
One shield against this is Maria Ressa,
CEO of Rappler, who uses words as a lance
but subjects herself to judicial repercussions
in the effort.
as a whistleblower.
This word is in itself a disinformation
and is being used against her
with impunity.
Bird Waltzes
Male birds do the courtship dance
to get their mates.
Can’t say much about this ritual for humans
as to who does the courting.
Which may have given rise to the expression—
this is just for the birds.
Sophie G. Trudeau
Happy News!
All is Well
That Begins Well!
This deserves Happy Wishes
SO
Happy Easter
Happy Halloween
Happy Birthday
Happy New Year
And Happy Whatever
She Starts On!
This is for Sophie Gregoire Trudeau,
Only for Sophie Gregoire Trudeau,
The Better Prime Minister.
I mean, the better half
of the Prime Minister.
Ibuprofen Nixed
This tip comes straight from
Vancouver Nurses :
Ibuprofen (from Advil)
makes the Covid-19
ten times more potent.
It escapes me how the nurses
could have ascertained that the patients
have ingested Ibuprofen.
Also
the syrup called Eucalyptin Lebrun
comes with codeine
which prevents local drug stores from carrying it.
They may have Eucalyptus oil or Black Elderberry Extract.
Ask the pharmacist first for advice.
But what the hey,
a good thing to remember is that
this virus must pass the throat to reach the lungs.
and also before it gets coughed up.
This tip comes from me :
upgrade the term Social Distancing
to Social Disciplining.
(you are responsible for what you ingest)
China Aid
As a reciprocal gesture
China sends massive aid to the Philipines
in its battle with Covid-19.
A Bug’s Life
A Bug’s Life
Laymen don’t lay eggs.
I am not a layman.
I don’t lay eggs.
Unless you consider this post as an egg.
But again I say, I don’t lay eggs.
If the coronavirus may be considered a bug, then this is its life.
I did ask the question “how does the virus kill people”.
From the facebook sharing by Monette Hayashi, it can be figured out the virus dries up the mucus in the lungs, resulting in the starvation of oxygen to the brain. This was found by autopsies done by the Chinese on people who died of the Covid-19.
So here we go—-when the lungs excrete mucus as a reaction against any irritation, (this time from the coronavirus,) they actually wrap the virus in preparation for disposal via coughing. Most of the virus are coughed out in mucus, some are in wet saliva or fluids, some are killed by the gastric juices in the stomach when the mucus is swallowed. But, if the lung muscles are not that strong to cough it out (as with old people), the virus remain in the lungs to proliferate. The virus dries the mucus which, aided by the respiration plus the aggravating action by ventilators, produced the annoying solid which we call snot(dried mucus).
As the virus proliferates, more irritants to the lungs result in more mucus secreted and thereafter more snot. The more the ventilators are used, the more snot is produced to cover up the lung surfaces. Doctors and nurses do not realize this. They are bent on keeping the patient alive, hence more oxygen is pumped in and more gas goes in to dry up the mucus. What should have been done is a no-brainer, and that is to get rid of the mucus. If the patient is old and is unable to cough out the mucus, then expectorants should be used. These are to be delivered either by mouth or through the ventilators. Pharmacologists may have a wealth of these phlegm expectorants in the line of eucalyptus and etc. This does remind me of eucalyptin lebrun, whatever that is or was.
Anyway, for serious cases, a tube may be inserted to the lungs, liquefy the dried mucus with expectorants, and pump it out. Or better still, kill this bug right at the throat or nostrils.
Social distancing?
You mean meeting by “bumping at each other”?
NAH!
Try winking at each other.
I find this more exciting
especially when that sexy one winks back!
Annual Bombardier Bailout
SO
Bombardier of Quebec
is slated to get bailed out again
by using Canadian Taxpayers’ money.
This bailout goes on every year.
This company is not profitable.
It employs 50% more people than necessary.
And these are paid 50% more than necessary.
The Canadian Taxpayers should buy them out
so that the people can decide where the plant/s
are to be located
and the employees to be hired.
This is another beef that the Western cows
are crying for.
No ownership, no bailout!
No Bombardier, no pain!
The Bombardier employees should be laid off
and they should apply for unemployment insurance
just like everybody else.
(no absolute power for this Liberal Government which has proven to be spendthrift on anything and everything they can think of )
Chinese Rules of Prevention
Regarding the Covid-19 virus prevention
this is what the Chinese have learned,
from autopsies.
and hospital procedures.
Listen well, no video here
just plain useful advice.
And next time, do not ignore…..
You may be good, highly-trained
well-educated doctors
in high positions
and high salaries
but you have to use your heads
sometimes.
And sometimes
we learn from guesses
and misinformation
like lime, lemon, and oranges.

How to secure Social distance
If you want to secure a safe social distance,
eat more gas-forming foods
like sweet potatoes and the like.
Ah, but you know what I mean…
More Covid-19 Questions
Here are more dumb questions
to be ignored by the smart doctors
that you watch on tv.
Firstly,
Of all the rules that were shouted on tv,
about washing your hands
and don’t touch your face;
why don’t they just say
wash your hands
and wash your face?
Secondly,
to declare success against this virus
are they just waiting for that time
when the virus run out of weak people
to infect?
Thirdly,
why do these smart people demean
the wearing of masks
as it these do not prevent infection
at any single time?
Fourthly,
what may be the reason why
these smart doctors on tv
are unable to say that they do not know?
Why don’t they use forensics?
Autopsies should give them a good insight
of how the virus kills.
(dare the doctors to obtain emergency powers to secure compliance…)
De-crowning the Coronavirus Part 2
Decrowning the Coronavirus Part 2
The first thing I asked on the outset of this virus is whether it thrives in an acidic environment. This question was ignored twice. And so I left them to do their assumptions and presumptions to the point that what we have now is a complete supplication to the dictates of the virus. The general order of the day is now to let the people who will be infected be infected. And let the people who will die, die. As a result, the world is now approaching a complete isolation and ultimately a complete standstill. People are now afraid to move from where they are, which is a well stocked storage house that is slowly turning to a dreary cocoon.
But forget about the catching words and phrases of what this write up has started, I repeat, this is a guess which you should listen closely because I usually stick something with it which MAY BE worth your while.
Reports of the initial virus start dd not contain anything about its source or the cause. Was it started with an inhalation, an ingestion, or an inebriated excursion? It would have helped a lot if the cause was known very like the Black Plague where the rats could have been exterminated right aboard the ships. The carrier fleas could have been eradicated with sprays had it be known that they carry the plague.
Which brings us back to my question—does the virus thrive in an acidic environment? You may ask why I asked this question. well the reports say that the test for this virus consist of getting samples from the nostrils, the throats, and maybe the nasal passages, This proves that it is transferred by inhalation, not by injection or touch or even by having sex. It is therefore what was an old term for it which is a COMMUNICABLE DISEASE. This term was never used by any whichever doctor or physician or pharmacist even if the chances are it was started by contact.
This virus has the option of residing on the skin, eyes, limbs, heart, ears, brain,stomach, intestines would it have been a potent communicable virus, Instead we find it in the nose, throat, nasal passages and in the lungs where it does most of its destructive work. But why not the stomach when it can have the option of sliding thru the valve towards the esophagus? Well guess what, it may have gone thru to the stomach but that organ presents a more violent activity than the lungs, and primarily because the stomach has digestive enzymes that would present the virus with an acidic environment which proves fatal to the virus. Conclusively I can say that the Covid-19 cannot exist in an acidic environment.
Which brings us to what probably may be one thing to combat the virus—-acidity, or that which is inherent in citrus fruits like lime, lemon, oranges, and etc. the common table salt is also acidic, so does sea water. In such days like these we may not be able to go to the beaches to swim. Maybe use inhalers, vaporizers, sprayers instead. if the virus is already at the peak of its destructive work, the space within the lungs should be acidic to stop it before it causes the fatal damage. Acidic vapors may be inhaled or forced through towards the lungs.
How does the virus kill? Another question which was ignored. Does the virus kill by collapsing the lungs, or puncturing it, or by eroding it, perforating, eatng, shrinking? Whichever it may do would result in the person gasping for air. Shortness of breath means not enough oxygen is being produced by the lungs. This will not yet kill the person,. But what would kill the person is the lack of oxygen that goes to his brain. When this happens, the involuntary activities of the body stops. the heart will not pump blood and the lungs will not work. Everything stops. The brain is still cognizant for that moment but it is unable to send impulses to the spinal column.
And then the person realizes that he is already dead.

Zigeunerweisen,
a favorite of Jascha Heifetz,

to play a Paganini.
De-crowning the Coronavirus
It’s beginning to be deafening,
hammered over and over again,
this rule about washing your hands.
Tell that to the Italians
or to the Spaniards.
This is the wrong message
for these people
who greet each other
with hugs and kisses.
The right rule should be
“wash your lips!”
But what then will a body do
if he is 80 years old
and he feels the virus has taken hold of him?
The vaccine should cure him.
But it will be available later in 4 months
not within this 4 minutes
that should spell his life.
Hokay,
I will write down what I think
may be a good remedy for him.
Remember though that what follows next
will be a figment of my imagination
and should therefore not be treated
as gospel.
Treat it as a misinformation
or just just an absurd, funny suggestion.
In such a case, give me the benefit of
a commendation to the Entertainers Club.
(I will wait first for several hours more
before I proceed,
in case some learned health wizard
have the same idea as I do.
In which case he will get the credit
for the suggestion.)
Yike (Tony) Yang
Tony Yang plays well as a contestant

Concerto in E Minor
Covid-19 Monotony
Much time is being devoted to this topic.
One is unable to watch anything else.
And the message is the same—
wash your hands keep your distance,
cover your mouth when sneezing or coughing,
stay at home in isolation,
go ahead and travel abroad,
but don’t ever come back if you did!
and so forth and so on.
Monotonous!
It is amazing though that the more
important things that people should know
are being omitted, or missed.
Things that the contaminated person
will be able to do or take to cure himself.
Perhaps another post here from me might
be able to suggest remedies or cure against
the Covid-19.
Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2
The ever popular Hungarian Rhapsody No.2
by Franz Liszt
is given a new twist by Vladimir Horowitz.
It is an arrangement actually not a twist.
What was accomplished is add to the original composition
variations of the theme by using the same bars
in some sequential and contrapuntal renditions.
You may at some points of the rendition recognize
that the left hand is playing some bars while
the right hand is playing other bars at the same time.
But listen, anyway, and then get blasted at the finale.
Hiaoui Zhang plays the Liszt-Horowitz
Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2
Another thing to note is the piano used.
The tone sounds ljke a bell
with huge, whole and loud tones
that demand attention.
I am unable to read the brand name, though.
must be a Steinway
Covid-19
A very extensive and up-to-date report on this topic
can be found at WIKIPEDIA.
Go for it!
Scheherazade
Rimsky-Korsakov weaves a ballad to interpret
the “1001 and one Nights’
or more popularly named as “The Arabian Nights”.
This is a compilation of the stories titled Sinbad.
Alkladin, Ali baba, prince Kalender, and etc.
The main story goes that a woman, slated for execution,
narrated to the Caliph a captivating story each night.
As a result, the Caliph liked her tales so much that she
pardoned her and kept her as story-teller.
The woman’s name was Scheherazade,
and the tales are compiled and titled
“Arabian Nights.”
In this performance,
the violinist plays a theme to depict Scheherazade
as she begins another tale for the Caliph’s ears.
Visualize the Storm,the Young Prince and the Princess, and etc.
Jean Chretien
The only Jean Chretien I know
is the best one.
Jascha Heifetz
The film “Carnegie Hall”
presents us with the only video of Jascha Heifetz
playing a complete concerto Movement
Anyway, while you are busy watching the fingering
observe also the violin that he uses.
This must be a very, very expensive violin.
Because it talks.
First Movement
Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto No. 1
Lady In Red
Janine Jansen
the Lady In Red
plays the violin as passionately
as what is suggested by her favorite color :
RED.
Hers is the best rendition of Tchaikovsky’s
Violin Concerto No. 1
next to the legendary Jascha Heifetz
whose performance of this concerto
is nowhere to be found in video format.
She presents, of course, the more attractive sight,
particularly when she wears red.
(And mind you
Tchaikovsky has made this piece
technically difficult to play)
