In the ancient Northern Syrian City-State of Ugarit, archeologist discovered a tablet that proposed a musical notation in cuneiform that corresponds to current notation.

Kilmer said to Daily Mail:
The hymn confirms a theory that “the 7-note diatonic scale as well as harmony existed 3,400 years ago” writes Richard Fink in a 1988 Archeologia Musicalis article. This “flies in the face of most musicologist’s views that ancient harmony was virtually non-existent (or even impossible) and the scale only about as old as the Ancient Greeks” as reported on OpenCulture. 

In 1972 Professor Anne Draffkorn Kilmer, who is a professor of Assyriology at the University of California, developed an interpretation of the song. “’We are able to match the number of syllables in the text of the song with the number of notes indicated by the musical notations. This approach produces harmonies rather than a melody of single notes. But the chances the number of syllables would match the notation numbers without intention are astronomical,”

A simple question: Is it feasible to test whether the immune system was confronted with a certain virus, for example Cocid-19? If it can be done, wouldn’t it be healthier and more logical to test before receiving a vaccine shot?

Isn’t the Covid vaccins a pseudo vaccine? You are Not safe from the multitude of covid variants, You can contaminate people around you, and you can get Covid-19, 6 months later, even after the second shot.

I am “voluntarily” going to the gallow this April 22 to be injected with Pfizer vaccine. “Mass Pressure” is demanding from me to satisfy the invitation to get vaccinated, though I am kind of convinced this is a pseudo vaccine.

In lockdown, the Chinese billionaire Wang Jian arrived on one of the last incoming trains. Flanked by a small entourage of younger scientists, Wang exited the station wearing a mask, a light puffy jacket, and a backpack. Thousands were fleeing the river port metropolis. But Wang came ready to work. During the SARS epidemic in 2003, the now 66-year-old geneticist had been similarly proactive, repeatedly flying to the outbreak epicenter in Guangdong Province to petition authorities to allow his young bioscience firm, the Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI), to sequence the deadly respiratory virus’s genome. Wang’s requests were denied until the last moment, after SARS reached Canada and scientists there became the first to sequence it — a national embarrassment for a rising China.

If health officials are lifting mask mandates for the vaccinated, how do I know if the unmasked people around me have gotten their shots? How do I signal to them that I have? And what if I carry the Covid-19 and may transmit it?

Right or wrong, every honest author ought to write his book as if he were going to be beheaded the day he finished it

Is that within Free Speech Fb? More than 16,000 Israelis have joined a Facebook page in 2014 that calls for the murder of a Palestinian every hour until three missing Israeli settler teens are located.

Le sense de la Mesure? (Probite, alternance des tasks quotidien, period de repos…). Cette Mesure a une soeur moins souriante: La Conversion. Une conversion qui brise les idoles et renverse les tabernacles…partout où les gens démunies vivent dans faubourgs pauvres…La conversion qui préfère le sang a la briques et se travesti de l’amour fraternel…

Casser le sense de la Mesure et sombrer dans la conversion n’est pas difficile: Il suffit de réfléchir un peu sur les directions de la vie.

Elle n’oubliait jamais sa bonté, mais ne se rapeller pas a quelles occasions “précises”

Elle n’avait jamais vu l’intérêt de disséquer les gens pour les recoller: Ce n’est pas grand-chose ce qui différencie un homme d’un autre. En fin de compte.

L’amour et la religion! Quelle horreur. Ils détruisent l’intimité de l’âme.

The air-mines to block fighter jets from being launched from military airports will be contemplated soon. These mines will be imperceptible, almost transparent, hard to detect, controlled to move any which-way . And endowed with “Fail-Safe” self destructive mechanism. No charges of explosives: just an envelop of aluminum powder that ignite when sucked by the jet turbines.

Russian authors have the monopoly on gloom: the crippled little girl, from slaving in hard work, is adopted by grouchy old man, simply because she learned to “smile” and act cheerful of the “destiny” she was glued to.

There are critical periods when every Nutcase thinks he is an individualist and acts a dictator. Once a successful “revolutionary” reach definit and consistent stand for a good while, then he becomes barely a two-minutes figure in the press and news media. The media is dead convinced that its “avid” readers crave to be “shocked” by streams of surprising “news”

At least in the USA, Bankruptcy is “a central part of each national financial system”. It is a legal mode, but one that has profound financial implications for any money-holding entity. Individuals, companies, and governments that declare bankruptcy can respectively save their homes, end leases on money-losing locations, and kickstart years of austerity, though they may find it difficult to secure loans in the future.

Still, bankruptcy can offer something truly invaluable: a future chance at financial solvency. (It is the multinational companies and big banks that benefit the most from this legal mode: They can still get loans at a little higher rate to restart their embezzling scheme on the common citizens)

The US has the highest rate of police killings among most wealthy countries, according to a report from the Prison Policy Initiative (PPI), a criminal justice think tank. The report found that the US has at least 3 times the number of police killings compared to Canada (people killed in 10 millions) and more than the combined killing in peer countries in Europe.

Cognitive biases explain why we made a bad decision but rarely help us avoid them in the first place. It’s better to focus on warning signs that signal that a decision might turn wrong: First, You’re tired, emotional, in a rush, or distracted and Second, you’re operating in a group or working with an authority figure

France and Germany consumes 5 billion gallons of potable water that reah homes directly. In France, you have about one million km of canalization and 550,000 km in Germany. Distillation based on 60 criteria of quality of water include: Residues of pesticides, pathogenic and chemical agents, manganese, iron, micro plastic, … Ultra violet radiation treat the disinfection of microbes and bacteria…

Was it harder to find crowds to unleash mass shooting in the US during the pandemics? In fact, 2020 was a record year for firearm deaths, which cost over 19,200 lives—a 25% increase over the previous year, bringing the toll of gun violence to over 653,000 deaths since 2001, far more than what Covid-19 harvested in the last year. And nothing drastic was changed since to curtail private machine gun weapons.

Jesus was Not a Jew, as agreed upon by the Jerusalem sect in the Sanhedrin. The charismatic Jesus is from the province of Tyre (including Galilee and Sidon in the Seleucid empire). Jesus was circumcised during the short period of the extremist jews occupation of the Galilee province. The Temple of the sect of Jesus was in mount Carmel, above Haifa. All Jesus life was spent in that region, before he decided to march toward Jerusalem in the last 6 months of his life

If a mature character can affect positively a woman, then it is far more rewarding when maturity is done in a younger age.

It should be prohibited , with firm prison term for the people who divulged and relayed the sex of the baby to the parents in the echography. What preparations parents are needed whether it is a boy or a girl? The color of the cribbs, the color of the pampers…? One month should be enough to decide on the name and to absorb the “psychological shock“.

Many still hate former Margaret Thatcher PM, even after her death, many are still angry, especially the British working classes and health institutions 

How drawing a gun, instead of a Taser, can be that confusing and mishandled? Are the design and the weight of these two objects so similar? Back to the design table, location in wearing the objects or just banning firearms for police forces?

“The Zionists openly say that they will allow Palestinians to choose whether they remain in “Israel” as residents without rights, leave, or fight and be killed by the Israeli forces — these same forces that have been killing them for more than seventy years.”–– Miko Peled

What would be the decision of the colonial powers on the status of this pseudo-State of Lebanon? Would they accept that Lebanon be a buffer zone against a military calamity in the region and thus agree to relinquish part of its total monopoly on the economy (Not financial) to other powers, or to try an all out devastation? My conjecture, the colonial powers would settle on allowing Hezbollah to implicitly and tacitly effectively politically run Lebanon, agreeing on a funtoosh Maronite President and funtoosh Sunni Prime minister. The question remains: Would Iran permit Hezbollah of Lebanon to add power to its curriculum?

As in the story-books, young Isabelle ran into Amory arms As their lips first touched, the rest of the high point of vanity, the crest of his young egotism.

Amory whispered aloud: “Damn it all. Next year I work!” And he realized that his inconsequence, effort would make him aware of his impotence and insufficiency.

F. Scott Fitzgerald did a valiant effort in his “This Side of Paradise“, his first published book, to fine-tune his observation acumen of the society structure of 1920’s , and exhaustively describing the characters. I sense that most of his subsequent books were variations on this cornerstone epic book. He was the precursor of many grown up generations on how to brace with this sinking feeling: “All Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken…”. This cycle has taken a worse despairing feeling that “Nature is dead, quality of air is deadly, and water quality totally polluted…” Nowhere to go for a quiet and healthy lifestyle.

Evidence is mounting that a tiny subatomic particle Muon and far heavier than electron seems to be disobeying the known Standard laws model of physics. The result suggests that there are forms of matter and energy vital to the nature and evolution of the cosmos that are not yet known to science. The suite of standard equations enumerates the fundamental particles in the universe (17, at last count) and how they interact.

The survival process of all the living species…What a humongous strife to survive a few more years… And no end to it

Large, big, miniature, barely visible living creatures… trees and shrubs…all that pain and struggle to live a while longer. All that howling going unnoticed.. And yet, this deafening silence outside the urban centers

The limitations of our sensorial capacities are meant to adequately match human survival process. It is Not the sensorial limited capacity that is the culprit in our shortcoming for observing, seeing, hearing and feeling… It is a fundamental defect in our constitution that is driving Earth to its doom.

Distropic societies? Communities is civil war ravaged States ,where kids were left to fend on their own. And when the war subsides, it is the dysfunctional adults who have to fit the kids into a “peaceful and ordered” structured.

All those pseudo small States are Not fit to human develop their societies: They were robbed of their dignity and self-confidence and are constantly excited to go to war against their pseudo neighboring States. “Win or lose” after the insane war, these States patiently lick their wounds and starve under foreign debts.

Another insanity to cope with: How to combine Ramadan observance with vaccine drives? Kind of taking vaccine shots have to be administered at night, after supper?

Charting USA drug OVERDOSE DEATHS by heart attacks? At least 88,000 people died in the 12 months prior to August 2020—a 27% increase from the same period a year before. Experts estimate that the Covid-19 pandemics has undone a decade’s work of progress in addiction treatment.

A “personage” is the one who learned to carefully select the Next Thing to invest his passion on. You have got to list all the wishes you can recollect and list which wishes you can Do, and then select the One item that your passions care to investigate. and pursue. And the cycle of this process continue. It will be easier the next time around, though the roadblock will be how to divest of all the useless “tools” in order to acquire the appropriate tools for your Next Thing to go after.

The most stupid of all wars is WWI. European countries infrastructure were linked with one another, and you could hop on the Orient Express and reach Istanbul from any city. The infrastructural union was established, but racist and chauvinistic behavior were rooted in those colonial powers: England could Not swallow the fact that Germany exports and navy has surpassed it in world trade.

The second stupidest war is Iraq-Iran war of 1981 that lasted 8 years: over a million Iranians and 300,000 Iraqis, just to please the colonial powers interest of weakening the two valuable and potential oil States in the Middle East. Even Russia joined the fray exporting weapons to Saddam Hussein with the latest weapons, including poisonous gas, delivered by long-range missiles that reached the Capital Tehran.

Mass Vaccination during a pandemics will spread more dangerous variants of the Covid-19. This is known in the first year in medical studies. Kind of wait until the pandemics subside? The nations that adopted mass vaccination will experience immeasurable consequences after a few weeks of the campaign.

A coup d’etat in monarchic Jordan? Just a Scare tactics. The screenplay of this pseudo coup is barely believable. As if this created pseudo-State of Jordan has even been able to deviate from US orders since its inception in 1921. Amrak sido

“Sick building syndrome” enters the lexicon in 1980s as Buildings were designed for an exterior look, ignoring what was going on inside, especially using cheap toxic industrial materials.

In 2010, the Green Buildings movement embraces the notion of Healthy Buildings, which keep both environmental and human health in mind.

Actually, one of the main reasons why the colonial powers hated the Syrian people is that Syria didn’t owe a dime to any foreign country. Syria was self-sufficient in almost everything. No foreign (sovereign) debt). Before 2011, the start of the induced civil war.

A true leader selects his assistants among those who have the courage to question orders. A leader should seek those who believe they are entitled to think and be convinced, before obeying orders.

You come alive when the time come to choose to pay careful attention to what feeds and sustains your passionate love.

We certainly get old quickly, but it is doubtful that we grew up. To grow up costs the earth. It means you take responsibility for the time you take up, for the space you occupy. It’s serious business. And you find out what it costs us to love and to lose, to dare and to fail. And maybe even more, to succeed.

Is Deliberate practice is the best technique for achieving expert performance in every field—like in writing, teaching, sports, programming, music, medicine, therapy, chess, and business (if you saved enough to lose many times)…? Deliberate practice means practicing with a clear awareness (laser focused) of the specific components of a skill we’re aiming to improve and exactly how to improve them.

The invention of Religion, the main nemesis for the Natural human development, thwarted every attempt at a harmonious “compassionate” living-together” among ourselves, nature and all the other living species.

Orphaned oil and gas wells? Many leaking methane gas and spouting pollutants, are poised to pop up around the US, threatening groundwater and air quality. Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan to the tune of $16 billion, the goal of plugging wells nationwide is urgent: Methane is 10 times worse than CO2 for the warming of the atmosphere

China has double Vietnam reserve in Rare Earths. Chinese rare earth giant Shenghe Resources has a roughly 10% stake at Australia-listed Greenland Minerals. The fate of the Kvanefjeld project, a proposed rare earth and uranium mine in southern Greenland, is at the center of Greenland’s elections. 

The left won Greenland’s snap election. The Inuit Ataqatigiit party got 37% of the votes. It opposes a rare earths mining project with major geopolitical and economic implications.

I received a message for my turn to be vaccinated with Pfizer. I am very weary. All those talks about “sciences”, which is controlled and manipulated by politics for mass vaccination is Not convincing, even if 650 million Pfizer shots have already been administered. My experimental mind is telling me to wait for another 3 months. What is your position?

The “lost generation” of 1920’s grew up to find “all gods dead, all are fought, all faiths in man shaken'”. The cycle resumes for every generation. This time around: “All Nature is dead, quality of air dead, water quality dead…”

“The vision of the historical mission of Great Britain as Sea Power . From his point of view, with which those present agreed, the sea power or Sea Power is a special type of identity that distinguished the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, and then the Venetians, the Dutch and the British in antiquity.” Actually, every time England sensed that its sea superiority is challenged, then it initiated a pre-emptive war, by herself or with paid allied. The case of Germany before WWI is striking.

Gas flaring? Wasted natural gas emitted from oil/gas sources. It is responsible for at least 1% of global carbon emissions, wasting hundreds of millions of dollars of natural resources while endangering our environment at the same time.

Bitcoin miner Sergii Gerasimovich turned waste/flaring gas into electricity with a generator. He could keep his mining farm afloat while cleaning up a notoriously dirty industry.

More than a year into the Covid-19 pandemic, we still don’t have clear answers on the Origin Of the virus. Did it cross over from bats? Was it leaked from a lab? The answer matters because it can help the world be more prepared for the next pandemic. (My conjecture is How it was spread so wildly: through the thousands of US military soldiers based in hundreds locations around the world)

A fitting analogy: Finance capitalists are vultures. The vulture can claim that his mission is to clean up the environment of carcasses, when in fact he is feeding on the carcasses of the fired workers and their families who will have to look to alternative hard to find jobs and survived on the little.

Both parties, the “terrorist extremist factions” and the Anti-terrorists factions adopt the same slogan “Allah Akbar”. The third way faction that drops Allah altogether must be in the right direction.

Women all over the words are the main sustainable demonstrators, the hardest to dissuade from when undertaken, the source of the support mechanism and logistics. Tough when she make up her mind to recover her rights. When she does Not participate in a march, it is because she figured out that the instigators are dwarfs and jokers

It is the colonial powers that are the most afraid to be brought to the ICC. Even if the complaints fail, just being confronted with crimes they never contemplated will be held in court is traumatic for their faked claims of justice, liberty, human rights and democratic system superiority after WWII.

We can’t learn from experience without reflection: repeating the same mistaken process does Not add years to your experience. Only reflection allows us to distill experience into something we can learn from to make better decisions in the future. Keep a learning journal and daily ponder on it.

Lebanon political system is afraid of forming a government because whatever decisions it might take is going to ignite a mass revolt: No decision of the civil war “leaders” can uplift the spirit of the people or rob them of the scarce money they still have. It would great that the list of decisions be displayed ahead of time for the active organizations to have a say and possible “reasonable” alternative

The “American Revolution” was contrary to human rights: It was launched in order to preserve the “rights’ to import slaves for the plantations. Almost all first Presidents were slave owners and by the hundreds. Most lush towns and palaces in Charleston, Savanna…were erected by the blood and sweat of the slaves.

China as the world’s largest refiner of raw crude oil, deposing the title to the US, home to more oil refineries than any other country. Over 14 million barrels a day. When oil prices fall, the government pays Chinese refiners to increase production.

Why 9 of the 10 “happiest” countries in the world are in Europe? Is it because of higher level of human rights criteria? Such as free preventive health care, affordable schooling, and extended free-time for pregnant women, higher transparent political system…?

The humble, 6-inch nasal swab used in the testing process for respiratory viruses like Covid-19 is manufactured in 2 family facilities?

More than 100 million pieces of atmospheric debris larger than a millimeter that can damage or destroy an expensive satellite or threaten the lives of astronauts. What’s worse, researchers fear that proliferating debris could start a vicious cycle, which in the worst-case scenario could render orbits around Earth unusable, even preventing future rocket launches

Thousands of bitcoin ATMs have been installed in the US. They’re popping up at gas stations, vape shops, and delis.

If the rational mind is the first law for human decisions and social laws, then the experimental mind is the main process and the deep conscience for human rights and dignity is the guiding rod

When undertaking any “Design”, designing products or programs, the first initial facts to gather are for the health and safety of the users of the design. This is called “getting things right” from the start. 

That is how I have been try to write, using mostly ordinary words (Not many slang) and short simple sentences. What is easier to read, the more deeply readers will engage with your opinion. The less energy they expend on your prose, the more they’ll have left for your ideas to ponder upon

Almost everything industrial is very smooth, round, flat, corrugated, and so on. In nature, very few shapes are simple, almost every thing is raw, rough and complex

After the crazy period of building franzily ( products, programs, systems, and institutions), the byproduct of this period of building is maintenance and we haven’t figured out how to meta-maintain. The enemy for emergent sclerosis for the existing install base is the status quo bias. The US simply has a very large existing install base of aged institutions and systems. Patrick Collison (Complement with this interview). Most “buildings” in China are practically new and modern and the economy is progressing in bounds.

A year from now you will wish you had started today? A year ago, not many individuals or companies knew that “Normal Life” will be over in order to figure out an alternative lifestyle and behavioral change

With less context to guide our decisions, the number of subjects on which “we all agree” is shrinking fast. In its extreme form of low-context culture, we tend to bear on endless chatter, frequent argument; everyone telling you what they think, all the time. Remind you of anything?”

Late Lou Ottens invented the cassette tape and  helped develop the compact disk as well.

The US House passed the $1.9 trillion stimulus package. The cumulative package since Trump has surpassed the $4 trillions. And nothing to show in economic recovery. Just printed money that does Not match any internal market expansion. Add the 30 trillion national debt, mostly owed to China and Japan in treasury bills.

Due to the American economy’s size and the fact that the US dollar is the world’s main reserve currency, the country has an exceptional capacity to sell bonds that are in high demand around the world. This is the trick: If you can sell bonds, your rating by Moody, Fitch and S&P is high. Many countries have less than 50% debt to GNP and still are rated far worse than colonial power nations with over 120% debt to GNP. The other trick is the colonial powers have privileged borrowing standards among themselves, at less than 3% interest rate.

The optimist of the “half-full” is a measure of the physical reality under discussion: they attend to what is real

The courage to take the first step. The discipline to take the next one. Select wisely your assistants.

 Is it true that every person has a fixed Thinking Rate?

We care less of what people tell us of their pains and frustrations: We know that the only story we care to communicate is the variety of our pains, aches and frustrations…

White colonial debt? If the colonial owe it to the poorer nations, then they better Forgot the debt. If the poorer nations owe it to the colonial nations, the entire population had to pay it with their blood, blood to the knees. And No financial retribution for the evil colonial periods. And the process continues

Les gens que je ne connais pas ne me detestent pas: Je laisse cette prérogative aux cousins proches

In 2020, as Covid-19 spread and States closed airports and ordered drastic confinement methods, 250,000 German tourists and business men were trapped overseas on 60 countries. Germany needed an entire month and $60 millions to repatriate all these citizens.

I watched a movie where people lose the sense of taste: You can live of wheat and fat, as well as on any thing handy. Restaurants re-open with the same sophisticated menus: It is your imagination that is in control for your satisfaction. It become much worse when the sense of hearing goes also. I can communicate by writing in 3 languages, but what of the other people?

I am leisurely reading 4 books simultaneously: one chapter from each book a day. “Till we have faces” by CS Lewis, “This side of paradise” by F Scott Fitzgerald, “A place called Freedom” By Ken Follett and “Le gone du Chaaba” by Azouz Begag

Loyalty in reading. If the lebanese were encouraged to read, their loyalty will shift from those civil war “leaders” and toward a unified secular State

Many of us got their PhD overseas and worked on all kinds of minimum wage jobs to survive. Al karama, Pride is snatched by hard work for a better situation in order to be of aid to other fellows. Pride is to engage in confronting injustice and indignity to all living species. Pride is to confront all pre-emptive wars and those fomenting civil wars.

The highrise bidonvilles in France have robbed the immigrants from a natural environment where they could meet everyday and practice their customs. No surprises for them feeling depressed and the youth inclined to violent.

I finished “Till we have faces”by CS Lewis. It had a few great chapters. I wish Lewis wrote instead a few novellas from his “borrowed” idea on Cupid and Psyche. Author end up forcing the book in order to fill “required” number of pages.

Question: Is there any way to find more about Hassan Kamel Sabbah (the electrical scientific genius) family tree? I have searched everywhere. I’m from the sabbah family and I’m looking to see if I could perhaps be related to him. Reply: One lead in Lebanon is the Shia sect archive for his civil status in Nabatieh, then the AUB archives, and the university he attended in the USA, then Library of Congress…Especially his many patents. Hiring a dedicated investigative reporter will facilitate the job.

The format allows employees to participate in the IPO and increases transparency, leveling the playing field for a wider array of potential investors. It also, theoretically, insulates from first-day IPO pops… Is the IPO too firmly entrenched to be disrupted?

Unity Software’s deal in September —a hybrid of an auction and a more traditional IPO—showed us that the process of going public is still being pulled into the future.

The Tactical Staff (Walking stick contraption) was created by hikers looking for a little extra safety and security on the trail. When assembled into it’s full length of over 43”, the Tactical Staff becomes a formidable defensive tool; weighing in at a hefty 3 pounds of aerospace grade 6061 aluminum, the Tactical Staff is strong enough to defend you while still being light enough for you to carry all day. Primarily designed as a survival tool, the Tactical Staff contains the following built in tools:

✅ A harpoon point✅ A knife and saw✅ A firestarter✅ A fish scaler✅ A hammer✅ A glass breaker✅ Built in internal compartments for carrying valuables

La vie a deux, se surveiller soi-même et surveiller l’autre, pour retenir la dignité et la complaisance, est une occupation trop demandante.

This stupid DNA sent the “information” to the Ribosomething. The smarter Ribo/ripo dispatched the “pieces of intelligence” to the corresponding proteins. I was created a Human. Not an Adonis. To my chagrin.

Didn’t I warm early on that it is the children and youth whom spread the Covid, though Not being detected forcefully? And for political reason?

The big Baobab tree preserves large quantity of fresh water in its trunk. The baobab can reach 30 meters high, live more than 1,000 years and won’t need rain for 10 years to survive. Tribes learned to excavate an entrance in the trunk in order to extract badly needed water in dry seasons. The baobab is as good a source as aquatic wells.

As the dry season starts, chameleons all die. The hidden eggs in the deep soil will have to fend for themselves.

In the period between the first vaccine injection of Covid and the second inoculation the immune system drops dangerously. My conjecture is that the many varieties of Covid surfaced during the secret testing of the vaccine. Lebanon is the turntable of all the family varieties of Covid flocking from UK, South Africa, Israel and Danmark…

“The Israeli army arrested 41 Palestinians last week in 17 raids carried out across the West Bank in one night. Of those detained, 24 were from Mugayir and Kafr Malik, two adjacent villages northeast of Ramallah whose residents demonstrate every week against their lands being taken over by Israeli settler outposts.”– Amira Hass

Biden said what amount to: “we are Not going to demand from nations to do what we cannot give and apply as examples to follow”. Sure, Biden has the habit of Not quoting sentences that impress audiences. Hoping that older age agrees with good pronouncement.

Impotence is covering your violent heart with a cloak of nonviolence rhetorics.

“Traînée de poudre”, spreading Covid like wildfire: Lebanon actually reached contamination of 10,000 per day, the highest rate per number of population. Most of the cases, as everywhere else, are located in disinherited people living in crowded camps and shantytowns.

When 30% of the “working force” are employed in government institutions and most of them barely show up to work, and yet get paid…how can this State surmount its economic and financial deficits?

The worst among enemies (religious sects) are those branded “heretics” by the dominant religious sect. This label extends to political parties and ideologies. Most of the savage wars around the world and empires were conducted under the excuse of fighting heretics

Though most “Protestants”, of so-called Christian sects, adopt the Jewish mythological stories and barely rely on the New testament, they considered the “Jews” living in ghettos as “heretics”, and vice versa. Pogromes and persecutions had a deep connotation for the common people as Jews being heretics to the dominant religion in every nation.

Trump refused to fool the US voters that he learned to act as a President to all: he preferred to position himself as the Leaders of the hooligan factions

It was thanks to the campaign efforts of Obama and Sanders to rally the Democrats and select Biden as the party candidate to confront Trump. They figured out that this “lukewarm candidate” cannot be attacked convincingly by Donald as “communist” or left leaning. Obama had to settle in California in order to rally his supporters to vote for Biden as Dem. candidate as Biden was already considered the biggest loser in the initial primaries.

I agree with George Orwell: “If you cannot write, you cannot think (properly), and others will think for you”. I assume that Orwell meant: If you cannot observe (consciously observe what is going around you) and note down accurately what roil your set of values…then you are Not fit to write for others to think clearly.

Historical question if there are data: During the “Spanish Flu” pandemics that reaped over 20 millions within 2 years, I wonder when people started to wear the masks and how masks decreased the level of contamination.

General knowledge is important to know the context of speeches, articles and books, when context is Not directly provided. Without understanding of the context, what we hear or read fall within the abstract domain and is Not retained.

Why islands and shorelines that experience devastating frequent hurricanes and tsunamis still rebuild at the same places?

Can you spread Covid-19 if you get the vaccine? The short answer is: We don’t know yet. Why?

The first reason for that is practical: Vaccines’ priority is preventing exposed individuals from getting sick, so that’s what the clinical trials for Covid-19 shots were designed to determine. We simply don’t have public health data to answer the question of transmission yet. The second reason is immunological. From what we know so far, Covid-19 vaccines cause the body to produce a class of antibodies called immunoglobulin G, or IgG antibodies. These antibodies are heavyweights: They react swiftly to all kinds of foreign entities. They make up the majority of our antibodies, and are confined to the parts of our body that don’t have contact with the outside world, like our muscles and blood. But to prevent Covid-19 transmission, another type of antibodies could be more important. The immune system that patrols your outward-facing mucosal surfaces—like the nose, throat, lungs, and digestive tract—relies on immunoglobulin A, or IgA antibodies. People who get sick and recover from Covid-19 produce a ton of these more-specialized antibodies, but we don’t yet know how well existing vaccines incite them. Because of all that complication, it’s unlikely that immunological research alone will reveal how well vaccines can prevent Covid-19 transmission—at least, not for years. Until then, community spread is the best way to tell if a vaccine can stop a person from transmitting a virus to others.

One of these strains—scientists call it B.1.1.7—originated in the UK. Viruses in the B.1.1.7. lineages have small modifications on their spike proteins. Instead of one set of amino acids, which are the biological Legos that make proteins, they have others—like swapping out a blue brick for a red one. This building-block switcheroo makes the spike protein better able to attach to our cells and infect them, microbiologist and immunologist David Topham told Quartz.

Lebanon and Jordan States were created before the State of Israel in order to become “buffer zones” for the “security” of the programmed creation of the colonial powers implanted colony of Israel in 1948.

During the Spanish Flu pandemics, starting in 1920, people figured out that wearing a mask is very much a common sense protection. Still the Flu harvested over 20 million around the world. If we say that the global population increased 3 fold since then, should we expect that 60 million should die before Covid gives us a reprieve? With vaccines or no vaccines, since at least 3 billion will never get that vaccine?

Gotta admit it’s really something to see Wall Streeters with a long history of treating our economy as a casino complain about a message board of posters also treating the market as a casino Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@AOC

Marshall plan? Two years after the war, Europeans were totally down and drowning in poverty. The plan was supposed to have “saved” western Europe, and with extreme difficulty preventing it from rallying communist Russia by extending what corresponded to a month in expense during the war or $5 bn (currently $50 bn). Capitalist USA dispatched its surpluses, monopolized the sea trade, “looted” the minerals in the French colonies and gained global markets for her trades. Effectively, The Aid returned to the USA.

The Elite classes (especially Old Money) in every nation are establishing this malediction “truth” that they are a fatality to accept and bow down to. This monopolistic class own everything, while the other classes, even middle classes, lack of everything to sustain their autonomy. Actually, after every world calamity, it is the middle class that retrograde in “wealth” and blend with the poorer classes.

Just a hypothesis, and a good conjecture too: what we eat and how we eat and how much we eat is a minor factor to obesity. Tha main factor is the kinds of physical exercise we undertake to allow the brain to pick up the nutrient the body needs and what to excrete. Physical exercises shake the brain out of its torpeur of minding only the necessary sugar it needs for mental tasks.

So far, all US citizens of “color” and “immigrants” who acceded to the highest political positions behaved as “sheep” and were crushed by the deep institutions, including Obama and Colin Powell and the score of women.

My deepest wish is that Vice President Kamala Harris will stand tall for international values and reverse this “sheep” trend and prevent Biden from engaging in pre-emptive wars, under all kinds of lame excuses from the “establishment”

The Incompetent Infants in charge of the community: Don’t seek management or leadership if fishing, video games, or playing golf are your greatest aspirations. Anyone who thinks responsibility is easy is irresponsible. You learn to embrace responsibility when you learn the value of doing hard things. 

The mother has the earphones in her ears, listening to whatever her mobile is saying. The daughter is communicating in what looks like silent/sign language. The mother seems to get what her daughter is saying.

A beauty that astonishes you after she is out of sight, and you reflecting on this kind of beauty.

When she trod on mud, mud is nicer. when she run in the rain, rain is a welcomed silver. when she picks u a toad, this creature looks the most lovely among its species.

Daughter, those sorts of jealous Gods you are mentioning are all folly and lies of poet and cleric. Go figure out how these two meet in the same functions.

Do Not expect to live beyond 85 anymore. If it is Not just from recurrence of various pandemics, it is the Stress generated from dashed hopes for Return to global Normalcy. Program your life accordingly.

I read 3 books at the “same time”. Otherwise I get bored. If I am pressured to focus on a single book, pretty soon I realize that the author is trying to cram the book with faked ideas, faked emotions… and rarely the good personal experiences.

If you can avoid the pressures of multinational education monopoly, don’t take the IQ test and other tests that are supposed to evaluate you aptitudes and intelligence. You do share all the attribute of high IQ people: bored from society, bored at school, never happy at any paid job, self-discipline is to be desired, and feel that I’m better than anyone else except in manual work and group sports.

Travel in 2021 is going to be a stop-and-go journey, as governments and businesses try to figure out an equitable plan to get things back to normal.  Be prepared to have the vaccin Passport on you

We have discussed this folly of “jealous Gods” a hundred times: The Divine Nature is without jealousy.

If you agree with the notion that input will eventually equal output, then when you do more than you are paid for, eventually you’ll be paid for more than you do. The universal law: we reap what we sow and we get what we give.

The Agro food industries add around 30 kinds of additives. A few of them contains nanoparticles, which means they can cross the intestines and flow with the blood and degrade many organs ( cancers). Eventually, these nano-ingredients will be banned and the multinational will be unable to contest the electronic microscopes (the power of technology). For example, the dioxyde of Titanium or additive E71, just to “whiten” the product. Several ingredients are mainly used to retain water, thus adding half of the weight in the sold products

Most of these chemical additives in food are pure poisons et supposedly just used to satisfy the idiosyncrasies of clients in the look, the color and consistency of the food. I doubt the multinational food industries experiment on the specific idiosyncrasies of clients around the globe, just imposing the “palate”/taste and smell of the colonial powers idiosyncrasies. Obesity, diabetes and cancer causing ingredients… are Not labeled “Can kill you” as in cigarette boxes.

Lately, pressured by “Green Food” campaigns and alternative food preparations, many agro-businesses substitute a few ingredients with “Auxiliary technology” ingredient/products, which are Not required to be listed as ingredients, because these ingredients disappear after the food is cooked. Many of these Auxiliary technology ingredients are enzymes types and proteins, even those extracted from cow bloods.

Lately, the best way that I “know” if I sleep is that I could recall I had a dream. Most of the dreams I cannot stand: I am being humiliated and cannot react accordingly. I respond with a half-waking sleep to cope with my lethargy to react and then I force myself to wake up. And I spend a few hours watching lousy movies, feeling in a wretched diminished state.

In a lengthy documentary on Agro industries. the business could eliminate 20 out of the 30 ingredients for a healthy product and substitute many with “natural” ingredients.

Don’t dwell on this irrational harang: “Resist to your famine in the name of Nationalism“. At least 3 billion people are degraded to accept the misery of their “destiny” in order to satisfy imperialistic economy.

Mammalian scientists claim that it is the females that start the process of mating season. I cannot buy these one-way cause and effects. I conjecture that the males vastly contribute to this process with their cry of “distress” to mate. And the female respond by increasing the level of their pheromone , a catalyst to entice the mating.

I think many would like to die in their sleep, preferable while dreaming of a hot Sexy story in order to go straight to heaven and compare with the Houris

After 53 years, the verdict from The Hague Friday: The International Criminal Court has jurisdiction to investigate alleged war crimes committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. How many Israelis are feeling the heat?

The U.S is the only advanced nation that doesn’t guarantee paid vacation time to workers, according to the Center for Economic and Policy Research.

It is Not worth it to give your opinions on social medias if you are Not ready to open up your deep emotions and personal experiences. Better make sure you are at least paid for your faked opinions

If paying attention to your breathing for a couple of minutes is so hard, how getting curious of how smoking taste and feel is tagged as a simpler task?

If paying attention to your breathing for a couple of minutes is so hard, how getting curious of the level of addiction to smoking and consuming alcohol is a simple task? How the tastes and feels of addictive substances is tagged as a simpler task?

Many people climbed the highest mountains in their profession, only to discover they were climbing the wrong mountain that didn’t deliver on the proper emotions and desires.

If the schooling system denies you to learn patience, focus and comprehension, you’ll have to learn on your own these hardest attitudes.

Any which way you think of it, Life has no meaning in the end. The best way to sustain this foolish reality is to learn to be confident in the passion of the talent you are endowed with.

Most financial bubbles are often engineered by governments, especially powerful Nations that has the right to print money at wish. With plenty of cash money in the market, the government increase the interest rate for stocks that are issued, until the economic reality blow the faked wealth.

Janssen says its Covid-19 vaccine can prevent 66% of symptomatic cases, Janssen’s vaccine shines by another metric: reducing the severity of the disease, potentially freeing up hospital beds. “To keep people out of the hospital and prevent death—this is value added,” said Anthony Fauci, the director of the US National Institute on Allergy and Infectious diseases on NBC Nightly News. Actually, the other vaccines dispatch 2% of the takers to intensive care units.

“People start being interested in something because it’s going up, not because they understand it or anything else. But the guy next door, who they know is dumber than they are, is getting rich and they aren’t.”—Warren Buffett, investor and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway

The living elites in a community are those “gifted” enough to give as much physical pleasure to women, as women felt liberated enough to enjoy what they are endowed to for quality pleasures.

How can anyone who love to read books never try to write?

How can anyone spend an entire day and night and Not read in a book?

How can anyone grow up and Not try to learn to read books?

Are you still waiting for a wish to take a life of its own, without you trying to cause it to happen?

No need to get older to learn a new set of behaviors, like observing intently and asking plenty of nonsense questions

Aung San Suu Kyi of Myanmar sacrificed millions of Rohingya out of the country for a faked return to “civilian democratic” system: She is Not the proper symbol of “freedom” to die for.

The Second Cold War is in full swing between China and the USA: US out of South-East Asia. Myanmar is the first stage in that war.

Till we have faces? What if we were denied eyes? Wouldn’t we be fitter for survival? Would have we been able to invent racism and hatred?

And you start reading biographies of these old crooks (Old Money) who “whitened their highway-robbery schemes” decades ago, and how their inheritors legitimately resumed the same crooked behavior: They were elected to political offices and they finance election campaigns, and fund lobbies for special interest laws.

Both Putin and Biden will settle on a neutral iran in the grand strategy to corner China. A neutral position at the cost what in Iran ideology? Ideology, and a theocratic ideology to boot it, is hard to reach a compromise to it. Another decade of calamities and suffering is waiting for us

The current Biden confronting position on Russia is meant to dangle the carrot of a neutral Russia policy and Not totally siding with China’s long-term policies. Giving in on Stream 2 to feed Germany with Russia gas might open the door for serious negotiation

Nous ne sommes pas des personnages, ou des characteres… nous sommes des histoires. Un paysage, une certaine lumiere, un crepuscule, un aube, une rencontre, un au revoir, un entretien, un malentendu, un moment d’amour fou… On se reconnaît dans une de ses histoires qui nous décrit.

“It’s not true that more feedback is better. It’s also not true that coaches provide the best feedback. There are two main types of feedback.

You are invisible to me, until you engage in confronting corruption of people and in institutions

Good procrastination? Working on something you think is more important than what you are supposed to finish? Like deciding to sit down and read a hard-covered book? Kind of avoiding different kinds of tangent works, such as doing errands for people and family members. It is Good in a sense that the people who want you to do the errands won’t think it’s as good as giving them some help in their daily chores and maintenance tasks . But you probably have to annoy them if you want to get anything done.”

The US governments and European governments have spent lavishly to boost the “economy” (extending free money to the poorer classes) during the pandemic, and if history is any guide it’s likely to keep it up. The school of economic theory associated with British economist John Maynard Keynes recommends governments spend freely during recessions, then tighten their belts during booms. But historically that’s not always what happens. The question is :”How booms will ever come when the world trade is being closed and restricted? And how much the economy should grow to cover that huge printing of worthless money?)

” The difference lies in how well you’ve prepared. If you make an effort in training when you don’t especially feel like making it, the payoff is that you will win games when you are not feeling your best. That is how you win championships, that is what separates the great player from the merely good player.” Rafael Nadal in Rafa (p. 287)

The wrong and quickly fixed solution costs a fortune as in redesign, reparation for court trials for safety and health. Invest largely on the proper solutions and design for the users and clients

The laws were enacted for those with the “power” to enforce them, and advocate at court to complaints?

I totally disagree: Laws should Not be mere tools and weapons for those who pick them and use them, and laws should be the mark of decisions. This can be done when the programs of candidates to Parliament are a set of laws, with details of the new system to replace the laws that were enacted by the previous Victors. And the program should include the Laws that need to be revoked and annulled to represent the rights of the voters who brought new Victors to rule in power in their name.

“It’s no place for a Lady” was a red rag to the defiant bull lady. Same for door marked “No entry”

Rationality set aside, long-term projects confuse me: No girl ever approached me and told me: “Cool it down Adonis. Don’t you worry. This long-term stuff, I take care of it”

“Ghost ships“, unmanned vessels, outdated ships filled with dangerous materials and radioactive waste. Sent by colonial powers across the oceans, away from their “homeland”. Ghost ships are warning us against the dangers of greed and ego.

In Israel, the ideology is Not a short-term threat: it is the level of organization that is worrisome. For example, Hamas has the Muslim Brotherhood ideology, and a convicted member of Hamas has to spend many years in prison. A simple Muslim Brotherhood receive a mild punishment.

The best option I can get on social media is to skip all comments, except elaborate comments of more than 3 sentences.

It turned out that crows are more fit to survive than humans: they cooperate fully mong themselves and discard the member who is reluctant to cooperate. More than 1,500 various experiments on crows have proven that fact.

For decades, big corporations have profited from human rights and environmental abuses in their supply chains — from conflict minerals, to slave labour, and child exploitation. And the very people who are defending our planet are being murdered for profit.

Dr. Bombar sailed from Algier to the Barbados (1,600 km) for over 50 days to prove that you can survive without any water or food reserves. Just rain water, some sea water, plankton and raw fishes. He just lost 35 kg and a kidney. Apparently, lost mariners generally die from despair.

Organizations like the Jewish National Fund, AIPAC and the Zionist Organization of America have historically adhered to a limited ideology that has gone largely unchanged for 7 decades. Their ideology sells Israel as a post-Holocaust bastion of security for the Jewish people and a perpetual underdog. They see the role of American Jews as being to uncritically support Israel, both financially and politically.

The realm of the parasocial—a parallel world where one-way connections with celebrities or fictional characters have all the intensity of a reciprocal relationship.

Les exercices de ballet c’est con: C’est pas facile de voire des pieds ensanglantés et des doigts tordues et croire qu’on peut continuer/doit continuer se calvaire.

Who can feel ugly when the heart meets delight? This feeling of being fresh and desirable?

Ecocide? Such as the Orange Agents that deforested green Vietnam, a chemical agent created by the same infamous Monsanto. Millions of Vietnamese, 4 generations after, are still suffering from 14 kinds of illnesses and babies born handicapped. The same chemicals that the US used in Iraq, with depleted uranium and phosphorus bombs. As if the US administration is totally memoryless when deciding to go to wars and assassinate other people.

I’ll take a very bad waking day to a single bad night dream: A dream that grabs your despair to a crescendo level of horror events. Leaving you utterly exhausted and disgusted for living. A night-brain that is totally mischievous and imaginative in unbelievable scenes. I wish I were a movie director to restitute night-mind horror stories and liberate my disgust on other viewers.

There was substantial support for Zionism on the American left around the time of Israel’s founding, especially French and British left-leaning parties. All these political parties, including the conservative parties were trying to best one another in establishing this apartheid colonial State.

But after the 1967 Six Day War, which saw Israel occupy the Golan, West Bank, Gaza and Sinai, Israel increasingly ran afoul of growing anti-colonial sentiment among those on the left. But to more traditional American Zionists, it was not Israel that changed, but the left itself

“Israel’s conviction of Palestinian activist Issa Amro shows that there can never be justice when the judge and prosecutor wear the same army uniform. Amro was convicted because he and a small group of people, dared to march on a road that was closed off to Palestinians. A road that, perhaps more than anything, symbolizes the apartheid regime that exists in the West Bank, and which Israel’s military justice system props up on a daily basis.”–– Oren Ziv

No, I disagree that the night dreams of people sleeping on a comfortable bed are of the same substance than those sleeping on the ground. The quality of daydreaming is also different.

Putin didn’t have to exacerbate his shaky standing by confronting the opposition Navalty with same police tactics

Sarassin? This term was used by the Spanish and later western nations to label the occupiers of Spain (regardless of their origins, as long as they claim to be Muslims). In the Syriac language, Shaarikeen (Sarassin) were the bedouins tribes whose main chattel were Camels. These bedouins performed two seasonal transfer for their locations. From their original “permanent location” where sources of water are relatively “abundant” and the grass is green (from early May to the middle of September) and the second seasonal trip (middle September to late April) toward regions where rain started to fall and the grass is greener . The direction is to follow the Northern wind, generally eastward (Shark). Thus, the western culture labelled those occupiers who expanded northward (all of Spain and even France) toward regions where rain was plentiful and green grass aplenty during autumn and winter seasons. Shaarikeen is a label to all those bedouins tribes, regardless of which desertic region (interior of the “Arabian Peninsula) or the Syrian eastern desert by the Euphrates River.

In Canada, the large black bears opt domicile in trees: 10 meters above ground and the hole is barely the size of a basket ball. They don’t urinate or defecate during hibernation and put down 3 little bears . The milk of this bear is 5 times richer than cows. I missed the sequence when the big bear crawl out of the hole: must be a science fiction scene. The little bear descend slowly but surely, butt first, and the mother patiently waiting for them down there.

Think of the next day of your death: who might still remember you? A good idea to impress those people, just to win a day of remembrance

How come US media are so disturbed of the storming of the Capitol? The father of Trump was a KyKlos Klan member and Donald was a staunch supporter. In the last 4 years, Trump executed the ideology of the Klan. Hypocrisy at its apex.

“Blackmailing” is a term spread by colonial powers. Never believe “Whitemailing” can ever be a benign mail.

From most of those tested positive to Covid they claimed the consequences were milder than mild flu. I am under the impression that it is the Testing Kits that are deficient in discriminating among the Covid-family and the flu-family symptoms. Huge business upfront with “mock kits”

Reports suggest president Trump orchestrated law enforcement’s tepid response at the Capitol, though details are so far scant. That would add an alarming element of conspiracy to his seditious pre-riot pep speech.

Funny. US “experts” are struggling how to describe the insurrection on the Capitol, and using dictionaries too, for the definitive term. Sedition? Were they protestors, a mob, extremists, or representative of the outlaw groupuscules? 

Extreme far-right parties emerge forcefully as the economy falters for a few successive years: Those who believed they have an “entitled right to a substantial share of the State wealth” are losing the expectation for this financial easy flow.

On doit finir par percevoir l’asymétrie de l’information comme le problème central : pourquoi croyez-vous que les oligarchies paniquent tant à l’idée que tout individu puisse, avec très peu de moyens, contribuer à informer et éduquer ses semblables? Ce sera dure sans la volonté’ d’acquérir un esprit critique et réfléchie

Dans les deux cas, on fait faillite: 1) On ne peut pas rendre son epouse heureuse a Notre idee 2) On ne peut pas rendre l’épouse malheureuse a sa façon.

Est-ce quand on dit a une femme “Je t’aime”, ca veut dire que les autres femmes doivent prendre le deuil?

Entre hommes, on ne se complimente que sur ses maîtresses? Les hommes ont un sens inne’ pour les jeux risque’ ou’ la banque gagne toujours.

I do confirm that the mistake of a lifetime of Bashar Assad of Syria was to completely withdraw all his troops from Lebanon after the assassination Rafic Hariri. If he maintained a small detachment in the Bekaa Valley for a few months, Lebanon would Not have experienced this mass looting of his wealth by the alignment of all the civil war militia leaders. At least make sure that General Aoun returned from exile and a proportional election law is enacted.

And All the events you weren’t there to control. Loosen up folks

You want to kick 2020 with its chaos and pandemic crisis? You want to start fresh in 2021? This New Year could be the turning point if 2020 is hugged as the catalyst for a more compationed humanity. And more safety and security in the Middle East

La poule ou l’oeuf? Cocu ou avoir été trompé? Et vice versa. Il n’y a pas de cocus ou caucuses: c’est se sentir trop solitaire, stupid.

Strange. The recommended fruits and vegetables to fight the flu and Covid are the seasonal food during the flu season. Either these seasonal food come a tad later than the flu season, or people are Not eating seasonal food, or the recommended food are Not the proper ones?

Insiders in the Republican camp are warning Lebanon that Trump is still preparing a devastating coup on Lebanon. They missed the point: Donald had already done it by demolishing Beirut and its Port. So far, Trump/Kushner/Pompeo plan failed, thanks to the inertia of the Lebanese people: rotten to the bones.

Entre couple, tromper la maitresse ou le dandy, peut donner l’impression de redevenir fidèle.

Les actrices sont généralement meilleures que les acteurs: Elles poursuivent leur job primaire de Courtisanes

Generalement, on est cruel quand on aime: la cruauté se transfère aux maîtresses et dandy.

Mentir entre les couples doit être la norme et il faut l’apprendre comme un acteur/actrice professionnel: mentir donne l’impression salubre qu’on se rembourse, un catalyst irresistible.

The veil was used by nobility in all civilizations, since antiquity. Hard working women could Not suffer a veil. Those who fled Mecca to Yathrib (Al Madina) made sure their women wore the veil to discriminate against the local families who worked the land (even if they were Not from the noble class in Mecca). As the local women gained status and didn’t have to work the land, they jumped on the bandwagon.

Faut désormais éviter de trop commenter on Fb: on devient addictive. L’autre soir, j’ai commenté sur une photo d’un couple que je ne connais pas: “Elle n’est pas ta femme”. Le soir meme, le mari m’appelle sur Whatsapp. Comment il a pu me trouver? J’ai repondu: “considère mon commentaire comme une bonne blague”. Il parait que le mari a un sens de l’humour très développé: il ne m’ a plus appelé.

We’re all biased species. It becomes an unconscious behavior. Our experiences (and idee-fixe in our surrounding) shape who we are. The perception of our race, ethnicity, gender, height, weight, sexual orientation, place of birth, and other factors impact the lens with which we view the world. How can we recognize and acknowledge our own biases? Does identifying our kinds of biases (like affinity bias, halo bias, perception bias, and confirmation bias) make a difference in our daily decisions or change our viewpoints?

Si La vie finit toujour mal, de quoi esperons nous? On travaille pour des naissances qui vont finir mal en tout cas. We fill our moments to forget the bottom line.

The generation of Rousseau made sure to badly bruise and persecute Jean-Jacques. Even the establishment of Great Britain, via David Hume who invited him there, made Rousseau feels as an insignificant entity and being implicitly persecuted. Rousseau new writing style of baring frankly his limitations and foibles in minute details was a good leverage to pounce on the political and social system. The generation after his death, at the age of 66, took its revenge and the Revolution buried Rousseau at the Pantheon in an apotheose ceremony.

That is how you win championships, that is what separates the great player from the merely good player.” Rafael Nadal in Rafa (p. 287)

The wrong and quickly fixed solution costs a fortune as in redesign, reparation for court trials for safety and health. Invest largely on the proper solutions and design for the users and clients

The laws were enacted for those with the “power” to enforce them, and advocate at court to complaints?

I totally disagree: Laws should Not be mere tools and weapons for those who pick them and use them, and laws should be the mark of decisions. This can be done when the programs of candidates to Parliament are a set of laws, with details of the new system to replace the laws that were enacted by the previous Victors. And the program should include the Laws that need to be revoked and annulled to represent the rights of the voters who brought new Victors to rule in power in their name.

“It’s no place for a Lady” was a red rag to the defiant bull lady. Same for door marked “No entry”

Rationality set aside, long-term projects confuse me: No girl ever approached me and told me: “Cool it down Adonis. Don’t you worry. This long-term stuff, I take care of it”

“Ghost ships“, unmanned vessels, outdated ships filled with dangerous materials and radioactive waste. Sent by colonial powers across the oceans, away from their “homeland”. Ghost ships are warning us against the dangers of greed and ego.

In Israel, the ideology is Not a short-term threat: it is the level of organization that is worrisome. For example, Hamas has the Muslim Brotherhood ideology, and a convicted member of Hamas has to spend many years in prison. A simple Muslim Brotherhood receive a mild punishment.

The best option I can get on social media is to skip all comments, except elaborate comments of more than 3 sentences.

It turned out that crows are more fit to survive than humans: they cooperate fully mong themselves and discard the member who is reluctant to cooperate. More than 1,500 various experiments on crows have proven that fact.

For decades, big corporations have profited from human rights and environmental abuses in their supply chains — from conflict minerals, to slave labour, and child exploitation. And the very people who are defending our planet are being murdered for profit.

Dr. Bombar sailed from Algier to the Barbados (1,600 km) for over 50 days to prove that you can survive without any water or food reserves. Just rain water, some sea water, plankton and raw fishes. He just lost 35 kg and a kidney. Apparently, lost mariners generally die from despair.

Organizations like the Jewish National Fund, AIPAC and the Zionist Organization of America have historically adhered to a limited ideology that has gone largely unchanged for 7 decades. Their ideology sells Israel as a post-Holocaust bastion of security for the Jewish people and a perpetual underdog. They see the role of American Jews as being to uncritically support Israel, both financially and politically.

The realm of the parasocial—a parallel world where one-way connections with celebrities or fictional characters have all the intensity of a reciprocal relationship.

Les exercices de ballet c’est con: C’est pas facile de voire des pieds ensanglantés et des doigts tordues et croire qu’on peut continuer/doit continuer se calvaire.

Who can feel ugly when the heart meets delight? This feeling of being fresh and desirable?

Ecocide? Such as the Orange Agents that deforested green Vietnam, a chemical agent created by the same infamous Monsanto. Millions of Vietnamese, 4 generations after, are still suffering from 14 kinds of illnesses and babies born handicapped. The same chemicals that the US used in Iraq, with depleted uranium and phosphorus bombs. As if the US administration is totally memoryless when deciding to go to wars and assassinate other people.

I’ll take a very bad waking day to a single bad night dream: A dream that grabs your despair to a crescendo level of horror events. Leaving you utterly exhausted and disgusted for living. A night-brain that is totally mischievous and imaginative in unbelievable scenes. I wish I were a movie director to restitute night-mind horror stories and liberate my disgust on other viewers.

There was substantial support for Zionism on the American left around the time of Israel’s founding, especially French and British left-leaning parties. All these political parties, including the conservative parties were trying to best one another in establishing this apartheid colonial State.

But after the 1967 Six Day War, which saw Israel occupy the Golan, West Bank, Gaza and Sinai, Israel increasingly ran afoul of growing anti-colonial sentiment among those on the left. But to more traditional American Zionists, it was not Israel that changed, but the left itself

“Israel’s conviction of Palestinian activist Issa Amro shows that there can never be justice when the judge and prosecutor wear the same army uniform. Amro was convicted because he and a small group of people, dared to march on a road that was closed off to Palestinians. A road that, perhaps more than anything, symbolizes the apartheid regime that exists in the West Bank, and which Israel’s military justice system props up on a daily basis.”–– Oren Ziv

No, I disagree that the night dreams of people sleeping on a comfortable bed are of the same substance than those sleeping on the ground. The quality of daydreaming is also different.

Putin didn’t have to exacerbate his shaky standing by confronting the opposition Navalty with same police tactics

Sarassin? This term was used by the Spanish and later western nations to label the occupiers of Spain (regardless of their origins, as long as they claim to be Muslims). In the Syriac language, Shaarikeen (Sarassin) were the bedouins tribes whose main chattel were Camels. These bedouins performed two seasonal transfer for their locations. From their original “permanent location” where sources of water are relatively “abundant” and the grass is green (from early May to the middle of September) and the second seasonal trip (middle September to late April) toward regions where rain started to fall and the grass is greener . The direction is to follow the Northern wind, generally eastward (Shark). Thus, the western culture labelled those occupiers who expanded northward (all of Spain and even France) toward regions where rain was plentiful and green grass aplenty during autumn and winter seasons. Shaarikeen is a label to all those bedouins tribes, regardless of which desertic region (interior of the “Arabian Peninsula) or the Syrian eastern desert by the Euphrates River.

In Canada, the large black bears opt domicile in trees: 10 meters above ground and the hole is barely the size of a basket ball. They don’t urinate or defecate during hibernation and put down 3 little bears . The milk of this bear is 5 times richer than cows. I missed the sequence when the big bear crawl out of the hole: must be a science fiction scene. The little bear descend slowly but surely, butt first, and the mother patiently waiting for them down there.

Think of the next day of your death: who might still remember you? A good idea to impress those people, just to win a day of remembrance

How come US media are so disturbed of the storming of the Capitol? The father of Trump was a KyKlos Klan member and Donald was a staunch supporter. In the last 4 years, Trump executed the ideology of the Klan. Hypocrisy at its apex.

“Blackmailing” is a term spread by colonial powers. Never believe “Whitemailing” can ever be a benign mail.

From most of those tested positive to Covid they claimed the consequences were milder than mild flu. I am under the impression that it is the Testing Kits that are deficient in discriminating among the Covid-family and the flu-family symptoms. Huge business upfront with “mock kits”

Reports suggest president Trump orchestrated law enforcement’s tepid response at the Capitol, though details are so far scant. That would add an alarming element of conspiracy to his seditious pre-riot pep speech.

Funny. US “experts” are struggling how to describe the insurrection on the Capitol, and using dictionaries too, for the definitive term. Sedition? Were they protestors, a mob, extremists, or representative of the outlaw groupuscules? 

Extreme far-right parties emerge forcefully as the economy falters for a few successive years: Those who believed they have an “entitled right to a substantial share of the State wealth” are losing the expectation for this financial easy flow.

On doit finir par percevoir l’asymétrie de l’information comme le problème central : pourquoi croyez-vous que les oligarchies paniquent tant à l’idée que tout individu puisse, avec très peu de moyens, contribuer à informer et éduquer ses semblables? Ce sera dure sans la volonté’ d’acquérir un esprit critique et réfléchie

Dans les deux cas, on fait faillite: 1) On ne peut pas rendre son epouse heureuse a Notre idee 2) On ne peut pas rendre l’épouse malheureuse a sa façon.

Entre hommes, on ne se complimente que sur ses maîtresses? Les hommes ont un sens inne’ pour les jeux risque’ ou’ la banque gagne toujours.

I do confirm that the mistake of a lifetime of Bashar Assad of Syria was to completely withdraw all his troops from Lebanon after the assassination Rafic Hariri. If he maintained a small detachment in the Bekaa Valley for a few months, Lebanon would Not have experienced this mass looting of his wealth by the alignment of all the civil war militia leaders. At least make sure that General Aoun returned from exile and a proportional election law is enacted.

And All the events you weren’t there to control. Loosen up folks

You want to kick 2020 with its chaos and pandemic crisis? You want to start fresh in 2021? This New Year could be the turning point if 2020 is hugged as the catalyst for a more compationed humanity. And more safety and security in the Middle East

La poule ou l’oeuf? Cocu ou avoir été trompé? Et vice versa. Il n’y a pas de cocus ou caucuses: c’est se sentir trop solitaire, stupid.

Strange. The recommended fruits and vegetables to fight the flu and Covid are the seasonal food during the flu season. Either these seasonal food come a tad later than the flu season, or people are Not eating seasonal food, or the recommended food are Not the proper ones?

Insiders in the Republican camp are warning Lebanon that Trump is still preparing a devastating coup on Lebanon. They missed the point: Donald had already done it by demolishing Beirut and its Port. So far, Trump/Kushner/Pompeo plan failed, thanks to the inertia of the Lebanese people: rotten to the bones.

Your thesis is rather logical. It is rather ethical. It has sound moral values… The assumptions of the entire thesis do Not stand their grounds: they are rather shaky. 3am jawjel fekertak

Je suis désolé de ma vieillesse, et plus désolé de la manière dont on me regarde: comme si notre passé infâme a trompé la jeuness. On me traite comme si je suis traître a la jeunesse.

I feel desolation for growing older. Amd more so as people look at: they regard me as Traitor to youth.

I was expecting a reaction of this kind: “No Adonis. You represent Youth”

Entre couple, tromper la maitresse ou le dandy, peut donner l’impression de redevenir fidèle.

Les actrices sont généralement meilleures que les acteurs: Elles poursuivent leur job primaire de Courtisanes

Generalement, on est cruel quand on aime: la cruauté se transfère aux maîtresses et dandy.

Mentir entre les couples doit être la norme et il faut l’apprendre comme un acteur/actrice professionnel: mentir donne l’impression salubre qu’on se rembourse, un catalyst irresistible.

Une jolie et élégante femme sait et sent toujours qu’on la regarde: le plus souvent de dos.

L’imagination trompeur: celui/celle qui est absent a un charme irrésistible.

On épouse de jolie femmes (quand on est jeune ou vieux) et on se rend compte qu’on a fait le bon choix lorsqu’un autre nous en délivre.

When THEY come to stick you forced Covid-19 vaccine- Just Think and recall this precedent code:

La coutume que la femme doit traîner après le mari est nocif a l’homme: A chaque fois, la femme se demande si ce dot la convient.

The veil was used by nobility in all civilizations, since antiquity. Hard working women could Not suffer a veil. Those who fled Mecca to Yathrib (Al Madina) made sure their women wore the veil to discriminate against the local families who worked the land (even if they were Not from the noble class in Mecca). As the local women gained status and didn’t have to work the land, they jumped on the bandwagon.

Never promise anything to anyone: it is the terror tactics perfected by the exploiters. You still can try keeping promises made to yourself. And Never says “I love you” to anyone: it is as though you promised eternal friendship.

“Je veux bien etre embeter par femmes… mais pas tout le temps par la même” Alfred Capus

La vie a deux, se surveiller soi-même et surveiller l’autre, pour retenir la dignité et la complaisance, est une occupation trop demandante. J’aime ce qui me fait sentir confortable et qui correspond aux exigences corporelles de la vie. Ces remarques ne s’appliquent souvent pas a plus de deux personnes: le chaos detruit les regles

Être “fait”pour vivre ensemble n’entraîne pas nécessairement qu’on puisse vivre ensemble: Comprenez “ensemble” dans toutes ses formes sociales.

This stupid DNA sent the “information” to the Ribosomething. The smarter Ribo/ripo dispatched the “pieces of intelligence” to the corresponding proteins. I was created a Human. Not an Adonis. To my chagrin.

Didn’t I warm early on that it is the children and youth whom spread the Covid, though Not being detected forcefully? And for political reason?

The Tactical Staff (Walking stick contraption) was created by hikers looking for a little extra safety and security on the trail. When assembled into it’s full length of over 43”, the Tactical Staff becomes a formidable defensive tool; weighing in at a hefty 3 pounds of aerospace grade 6061 aluminum, the Tactical Staff is strong enough to defend you while still being light enough for you to carry all day. Primarily designed as a survival tool, the Tactical Staff contains the following built in tools:

✅ A harpoon point✅ A knife and saw✅ A firestarter✅ A fish scaler✅ A hammer✅ A glass breaker✅ Built in internal compartments for carrying valuables

Unity Software’s deal in September —a hybrid of an auction and a more traditional IPO—showed us that the process of going public is still being pulled into the future.

The format allows employees to participate in the IPO and increases transparency, leveling the playing field for a wider array of potential investors. It also, theoretically, insulates from first-day IPO pops… Is the IPO too firmly entrenched to be disrupted?

On Dec.16, the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said that employers can require employees to get vaccinated before entering the workplace. We asked legal scholar Ana Santos Rutschman, who teaches a course on vaccine law at Saint Louis University, to explain the decision and the rights employees and employers have.

Here’s a sample:

Can US employers require employees to get a vaccine? Yes, with some exceptions.

Even Covid-19 vaccines, since they’re so new? That’s the current interpretation, yes.

What about religious or disability exemptions? Yes, technically, but there’s some gray area.

They are migrants/immigrants/refugees. They are Not “ordinary people“. They are “pseudo-citizens” of States created artificially by the colonial powers and still dominated by the colonial powers through all kinds of “pre-emptive wars”, civil wars, sanctions and mass punishments. They are the disinherited people of the basic minimum of human dignity, human rights and fair play in the most terrifying of circumstances. And they want to experience what “normal people” keep shouting out loud “Liberty, Fraternity, Democracy…”. They want to survive all the injustices and limitations imposed on them for basic food, medications for curable diseases, potable water, Not polluted lands and rivers. A decision of last resort to “Stand tall” in dinghies and makeshift tents, trying to keep their families safe. 900 of these “Not so ordinary people” have drowned in seas because States are closing borders to “welcome” those “savages”.

Il parait que les couples doivent se “rencontrer” plus souvent: Manière de tester le potentiel de leur charme.

Une vaste différence entre “on s’ennuie” et “avoir des ennuies”. Cette différence s’applique entre célibat et mariage. Vaste difference en consequences: On peut altérer une situation “d’ennuie”.

Une autre vaste différence entre penser et agir a ce qui nous donnerait du plaisir; en relation humaine, bien entendu.

Many commented that Macron needed Not test himself before meeting our maligned sectarian leaders: A few deaths among them would have cleared the path for a significant political change.

After Macron tested positive to Covid: Macron en the phone: “Allo, Professor Raoult? Au secours”.

Question: Is there any way to find more about Hassan Kamel Sabbah (the electrical scientific genius) family tree? I have searched everywhere. I’m from the sabbah family and I’m looking to see if I could perhaps be related to him. Reply: One lead in Lebanon is the Shia sect archive for his civil status in Nabatieh, then the AUB archives, and the university he attended in the USA, then Library of Congress…Especially his many patents. Hiring a dedicated investigative reporter will facilitate the job.

Faut désormais éviter de trop commenter on Fb: on devient addictive. L’autre soir, j’ai commenté sur une photo d’un couple que je ne connais pas: “Elle n’est pas ta femme”. Le soir meme, le mari m’appelle sur Whatsapp. Comment il a pu me trouver? J’ai repondu: “considère mon commentaire comme une bonne blague”. Il parait que le mari a un sens de l’humour très développé: il ne m’ a plus appelé.

We’re all biased species. It becomes an unconscious behavior. Our experiences (and idee-fixe in our surrounding) shape who we are. The perception of our race, ethnicity, gender, height, weight, sexual orientation, place of birth, and other factors impact the lens with which we view the world. How can we recognize and acknowledge our own biases? Does identifying our kinds of biases (like affinity bias, halo bias, perception bias, and confirmation bias) make a difference in our daily decisions or change our viewpoints?

Si La vie finit toujour mal, de quoi esperons nous? On travaille pour des naissances qui vont finir mal en tout cas. We fill our moments to forget the bottom line.

Archaeologists discovered 12,500-year-old rock paintings in the Colombian Amazon. Tens of thousands of artworks depict humans and Ice Age animals including mastodon, horses, and fish.

Sanmitsu is Japan’s buzzword of the year… It refers to the “three C’s” of social distancing—avoiding closed spaces, crowds, and close-contact situations.

The generation of Rousseau made sure to badly bruise and persecute Jean-Jacques. Even the establishment of Great Britain, via David Hume who invited him there, made Rousseau feels as an insignificant entity and being implicitly persecuted. Rousseau new writing style of baring frankly his limitations and foibles in minute details was a good leverage to pounce on the political and social system. The generation after his death, at the age of 66, took its revenge and the Revolution buried Rousseau at the Pantheon in an apotheose ceremony.

A reminder: September 11, 1973: Pinochet air bomb the Presidential Palace of Allende. A reminder that Capitalism oversea policy is: “Total annihilation of any movement that comes to power and that seeks change to the political status quo”

Hezbollah deeply believes in the Shia sect as the true guiding rod and will Not be able to establish this modern secular system that the Syria National Social ideology is meant to institute in the society. We all know that, and this is going to be the main hindrance in the future for overcoming a well structured theocratic movement.

I feel that many members of Hezbollah fought and gave their life with the tacit acceptance that they are martyrs (shayeed) for Allah. Though more of them are sacrificing their lives for the “dignity” of our people and their families. That Hezbollah managed to overcome Lebanon’s social environment and sustain its movement is thanks to Iran support and political counsel.

If we had a serious movement that united the secular citizens who believe that Israel is an implanted colony and our existential enemy, then the foreign pressures on Hezbollah will be welcomed for initiating a national dialogue for a secular political program with Hezbollah. At this junction, we can feel that Hezbollah is a strong supporter for maintaining and strengthening the sectarian structure to his benefit.

The main question is: How can a secular movement be able to counter this overwhelming unity among the sectarian parties and movements that are well armed and determined to rule? If the colonial powers were acting in good faith in their actions and activities, a different situation could have evolved. So far, the colonial powers pressures on Hezbollah are totally counter productive and grounding Hezbollah deeper in Lebanon social fabric.

Yalla. Covid-19 has become a passe-partout “cause of death“. You don’t die of Ebola, Sarl, or other sisters of Corona…. You just died of Covid-19. I am under the impression that the “Spanish flu” that harvested more than 20 millions after WWI might be a nasty kind of Covid-19.

The democratic process, allowing the base to vote, has the advantage to open up freedom of opinions, debates and a wider communication among the members. The trustee system (Senate, representative chambers, majles Oumanaa2) might look good logically because a gathering of educated and experienced members, and might be the best alternative at the beginning, but it usually becomes obsolete to the base and inevitably leads to dictatorship of a certain political class of elders with vested interests.

It is impossible to contemplate the Zionists and US extremist Protestants still living under this heap of crap of fake knowledge, myths and racist ideology. Israel is surviving under this mound of shit and forbidden to criticize its apartheid policies.

When those States drop “La Ilaha illa Allah” from their flags, when they drop from their Constitutions that Shari3at is the foundation of the laws, when they drop that a religious sect is the religion of the State, when they drop the concept that women’ brain is half that of men…Then, you may ask me “How do you foresee the future for these people?”

Oh Palestinians, Jordanians, Lebanese, Syrians, Iraqis: You should Not cow down to the colonial powers directives that you are living on individual Islands and have to fend individually by yourselves. You are one nation, one people and you have got to think, feel and act accordingly. One for all and all for one against the forces that want you isolated, weak and taken apart in our existential future.

French colonialism did the most harm to the people in the Near-East. French institutions have been suckering to Zionist movements since 1870 and preempting their demands all the way.

All billionaires have shares in pharmaceutical companies, in oil companies, in chemical companies… What is worrying is that, eventually, most vaccines (covid-19 and others) will be laced with 5G microchips to control and monitor world population by the superpowers. Mind you that Taiwan is the main manufacturer of those microchips.

Do you trust covid-19 vaccine? I don’t. Especially when they force it on you. and more horrifying, when the pharmaceutical companies are liability-free if you die or are maimed…(The PERP ACT of Trump administration)

US/colonial powers commit the assassinations and Israel get free propaganda to her Mossad. Paid mercenaries have to pay the consequences.

How the “terrorist” activities are processed and conducted? US/colonial powers fund the “terrorist/mercenary” training camps in an “underdeveloped” country. A high officer in the internal security service of a third country (Pakistan for example) manages and run the execution of the activity. If activity fails or the main officers are uncovered, they are exterminated in order Not to leave evidences. Former Pakistan dictator General musharraf said: “These are Not terrorist movement, they can be considered as armed NGO”

I am still reading Rousseau (Confession Tome #1). I am struck by his frank description of his character and in details. It matches mine, except in what he claims of his passionate tendencies, a character I still ignore if I had it in my childhood.

The New York Times said it finally got hold of the US president’s tax records, and reported that he frequently paid No federal income tax at all because of “chronic losses;” He paid only $750 the year he became president.

An unexamined life is Not worth living. And after being examined, it turns out Not to be such a bargain

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.”—H.P. Lovecraft, from the opening of “The Call of Cthulhu”. HP was an outright racist and every Non-White immigrant was a “beast”. Basically a KluKlox Clan

Why this urgency of US/Israel to negotiate the maritime borders between Lebanon and Israel? Apparently, the blocks 8 and 9 in Lebanon are the main reserves of gas/oil in the Mediterranean Sea. Israel wants to start extraction near this area and fear Hezbollah will demolish any offshore installations without any agreement. Israel does Not want the wealth of this reserve to be share with Egypt and Cyprus.

Proving that competition is a click away is not the same thing as proving that a market is competitive. For competition to work well, consumers need to be able and willing to switch to better products, and new competitors need to be able to enter the market.

Chinese officials are testing out a virtual yuan, backed by the central bank, in one of the world’s most cashless societies. Funny, counterfeit digital yuan wallets have already sprung up to exploit the innovation. Yeah, how old, off-line problems have a way of resurfacing in the online world.

Racism is virtual among the rich, regardless of color, religion or origine. The only difference is Old and New wealth.

Racism spans all the spectrum of differences among the poor people.
One exception in Lebanon: White colonial citizens are highly welcomed and treated like VIP, even if they are practically poor or pretty stingy

Not much into that business. If you care, then these Top 10 Cyber Security Tips

• Reboot your mobile device(s) every morning
• Use a microphone/camera blocker on all devices/computers when not in use

Financiers and traders on Wall Street may be starting to feel optimistic, but for most people the gloom is only deepening. Starvation and famine are looming wide and large in most Third World States

Why we refrain to say what we think? Do we only express opinions that seem safe to the community idiosyncrasy? Here’s how the spiral of silence works and how we can discover what people really think?  If you never master the courage to sound and look like an idiot for a while, you’ll never do anything great.

Antoun Saadi, founder of Syria National Social party in 1936 said: “The main difference between our capitalist class and the ones in more advanced nations is that our kind of capitalism is Not founded on industrialization which seeks unified and larger markets; but we have simply an outmoded mercantile system”

A reminder for our people in the Near-East: Israel was implanted by the western colonial powers in our region to prevent any daily trade and communication among the same people. Israel was created to fail us in any sustained development among the same people who were divided in pseudo “independent” States in order to facilitate the fomenting of civil wars among the pseudo-States. Israel/USA/France/Britain are existential threat to our future well-being

Stimulating opportunities to choose from is a stabilizing factor in societies. Stimulating desires (and wants) can be easily blocked in many ways and generate unrests

When a young guy was raised to equal status in the living with his superiors (parents, uncles…), to feel free of extending his opinions, of tasting everything that was displayed in front of him, of expressing the desires he has…How can this guy feels as soon as he feels scared and cowed when confronted with a Master who treats him as a “slave”? Who forces him Not to speak or communicate with the invitees, of Not finishing his meal (as was the customs with apprentis)… When he feels like desiring everything just because he is denied it? (Rousseau)

If an hour of reading leisurely failed to generate a single worthy idea/feeling to note down, then you better try another book

Covid-19 has resuscitated the ancient mode of separation among communities. Farewell the mild fiscal and commercial barriers. Still, internet (social platforms) continue to add wings to ideas/feelings that have been restrained for so long.

I told those senators they should knock off the regulation talk and be grateful for everything Microsoft had done for America. I told them, “The computer-software industry is not broken, and there is no need to fix it.” Well, you know what happened next: The Department of Justice decided we had a monopoly, sued Microsoft in a lawsuit that went on for years, and ultimately won.

Ideal face mask for Covid-19? You want a three-layer mask. Next to your mouth goes cotton or something else soft and woven.

The estimate of reparation for the “injured Lebanese” of the cataclysm of the port of Beirut is about $1.2 bn on the insurance companies. That is why, the judicial/political system in Lebanon delay the devulgion of the State reports on that horrendous event. Apparently, the insurance companies wants to pay 30% of the cost it is entitled to pay before the reports are cleared.

The US citizens must be totally ashamed by now: worse than the genocides they committed in Viet Nam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen… they did elect a Donald Trump. To the last minutes, they could Not figure out how to kick him to Florida. The system could Not even impeach a person who planned, incited and fomented a coup d’etat on the Congress. Strong with this terrible flaw, the Trump is boasting that he will be the King Maker in the next Presidential election. Sort of selecting the most fit President to the nation. And we wonder what Rupert Murdoch kinds will spread his venomous propaganda.

This Lunar New Year, the Chinese government handed out 10 million yuans worth ($1.5 million) of the digital currency to 50,000 Beijing residents to spend from Feb. 10-17 in designated shops or on e-commerce platforms.

Lidar? Light detection and ranging. If we could record and measure those points with a computer, we could learn a lot more about the object: Not just what it looks like, but its precise distance and dimensions, even what it’s made of.

Lidar system technology: Pioneered in the 1930s for the study of clouds, lidar is now used to visualize everything from ice sheets and forests to ancient ruins, crime scenes, vineyards, military targets, and traffic patterns. Lidar systems direct a laser beam toward an object, then capture whatever light bounces back.

The latest iPhones come equipped with a tiny lidar sensor to assist with augmented reality apps. Advances in artificial intelligence also start allowing lidar data, which can quickly pile up to epic proportions, to be deciphered more quickly.

Lidar technology has enabled the discovery and mapping of tens of thousands of previously undiscovered Ancient ruins and artifacts. such as ancient Mayan structures, a lost Aztec city, 700-year-old earthworks in Nigeria, a 10,000-year-old bison hunting ground in Oklahoma, and other archaeological wonders.

Lidar works particularly well in jungle settings, where the forest canopy makes aerial photography of such sites impractical (the lasers are able to penetrate tiny gaps in the trees). On a smaller scale, lidar can also be used to produce 3D renderings of artifacts.

The critical question in all time: What is to be done? How to start? The better question is: what is going wrong in the first place. In Lebanon, the confused lazy-assed pseudo-citizens have forgotten “what to work” and how to rely on themselves. Then they have to admit that easy trade with Syria is the key for any sustainable economic planning

“In order to help the living, we need to count the dead,” said a UN demographer, following a BBC News investigation that most African countries do not have a mandatory system for registering deaths..

A team of “experts” from the IMF heads to Lebanon to give “advice” as the country faces an economic meltdown.

No, it is Not the difference in opinions that drive people to fight one another: it is your choice of the moment between what you consider the “truth” represented by your community positions or your “conscience” as a human for fairness and equity.

I feel that many members of Hezbollah fought and gave their life with the tacit acceptance that they are martyrs (shayeed) for Allah. Though more of them are sacrificing their lives for the “dignity” of our people and their families. That Hezbollah managed to overcome Lebanon’s social environment and sustain its movement is thanks to Iran support and political counsel.

If we had a serious movement that united the secular citizens who believe that Israel is an implanted colony and our existential enemy, then the foreign pressures on Hezbollah will be welcomed for initiating a national dialogue for a secular political program with Hezbollah. At this junction, we can feel that Hezbollah is a strong supporter for maintaining and strengthening the sectarian structure to his benefit.

The main question is: How can a secular movement be able to counter this overwhelming unity among the sectarian parties and movements that are well armed and determined to rule? If the colonial powers were acting in good faith in their actions and activities, a different situation could have evolved. So far, the colonial powers pressures on Hezbollah are totally counter productive and grounding Hezbollah deeper in Lebanon social fabric.

No matter how loud are the current outcries, the activities of the administration of a “past” colonial power expresses its “pride” of having colonized other people. The administration reflects the “pride” of its people, of “past power” and its urge to rekindle that power in other forms and shapes.

There is No logic in “political economics”: this Europe that experienced successive famine periods, still colonized people who had learned to decently survive under their acquired customs and traditions.

“The HK19 Manual,” a crowdsourced archive of Hong Kong protesters stated: “It’s like running a business.

And they are fairly boring elements. But they are precisely the thing that you need.”

How ironic: Prices of iron ore, copper, nickel and other metals are surging sharply, on the back of a global push towards clean energy infrastructure. I thought only rare metals and copper are the large hungry monsters for “clean climate” programs.

How come most societies reverted to Patriarchal systems after the natural Matrical systems that dominated the communities for centuries? I suggest to the social scientists the hypothesis that as matrical systems took roots and gained power, males ended up being eaten live after intercourse, the same behavior of the Mantel females that decapitate and eat its partner after the sex is over. Kind of demanding the male right to survive after sex, at least of the young and still fit males.

Israel is at odd with current US policies in Lebanon. Israel has decided that “No more military pre-emptive wars on Lebanon, Not even on a smaller scale”. Israel desires a “stable” Hezbollah. Otherwise, Israel will be sucked into successive nightwares.

Only youth drives youths to march. The military crusades had failed after Salah el-Dine recaptured Jerusalem. Then, in Easter of 1212 in Cologne (current Germany) , a youth by the name of Nicholas harangued the youth to march toward Jerusalem, strong with their own faith. Hundreds of kids started the march in July and crossed the Alps and reached the Mediterranean Sea. This Young “prophet” promised them that the sea will split and let them cross safely.

These youth marches from many parts of Europe in the 13th century, France and Germany, coincided with the proselytizing of Francis of Assisi to his disciples that Money is the excrement of the Devil. Those famished downtrodden kids (in a Europe that experienced 850 famine periods all the way till the 19th century) had nothing to lose. Those who survived the crossing of the Alps, groups reached the port of Marseille, other groups ended on Genoa, waiting for the sea to split and to cross safely. Most probably, most of these kids ended up slaves in North Africa. At least they had something to eat, a white robe and sandals to wear.

Yes, I did waste time, on myself. I didn’t waste time bringing up children to suffer, to be humiliated, exploited, to vent their anger on other people…and then to die.

Come to think about it, it was a glorious summer. I was 14 and my parents paid for two private sessions of learning, 5 mornings a week. I walked up to my previous boarding school in Beit-Chabab and returned before noon. We were at most 3 students. One of the sessions was how to factors in equations of multiple power degrees (5 and more degrees) and Father Boutrus was my teacher. The other session was reading Arabic stories and essays and taught by an older Maronite Father.  The exercise was to find out the main essence of the piece we read. Patiently, the teacher listened to our opinions, and his main essence would always leave us speechless and awed.

I don’t recall what I did before age 5. I don’t recall when I started to read books. I guess that naturally Bambara (language in southern Mali) was the first language I communicated with: We were the only “White” family in that village. Even if “MY Boy” was sourd-muet. The only picture I have of my pretty boy was crouching and observing me riding my little 3-wheel bike. I was pretty too, with my curly hair.

Ay age 5, I went for only 3 months to the white French Freres school. An assistant gave me ride on the bike. Mother told me I managed to learn the 4 math operations in that duration. Before I got the typhoid fever and almost died and was shipped to Lebanon to an intern school for 6 years.

At the start of Lebanon civil war in 1975, a community mix of Christians and Muslims decided to march to Beirut Center and deny the plans of foreign powers to be executed. Two young women were to meet early morning, wearing the same clothes and yellow color and then the community will get out of their building and gather. A sniper shot dead one of the woman and Lebanon sank for 15 years in a devastating civil war. (Andree’ Chedid in “Maison sans racines)

When doctor Li Wenliang posted his warning on Dec. 30, the new coronavirus had not yet been identified.

Iraq is the strategic location for energy in the Middle-East and Syria the cultural center and national pride for this region. Bush Jr. quickly forgot Afghanistan in order to keep a close eye on Iran and sustain its economic embargo since the USA could Not invade or occupy Iran. 7ashed Sha3bi changed the done: give it time and Iraq will convince USA that it does Not need its presence to unite

“Ghost population”? The genomes from West African populations are found to have up to a fifth of their DNA appeared to have come from the unknown species. Geneticists suspect the ancestors of modern west Africans interbred with the to-be-discovered human species tens of thousands of years ago.

Influenza B (the flu more common in the Spring; whereas A is more common in the fall/winter. A team from the MIT Department of Chemistry @mit_chemistry unveil the structure of a flu protein, which could help researchers design drugs to treat infections from influenza B, designing small molecules that can block it .

Before World War II, Dresden was called “the Florence of the Elbe” and was regarded as one the world’s most beautiful cities for its architecture and museums.  By February 15, the USA savagely bombed this city for 2 successive days. This city, which had no strategic interest in the war, was a smoldering ruin and an unknown number of civilians—estimated at 25,000 dead.

It is easy for man-made fire to spread: You drop a ping-pong ball of permanganate of potassium in a field and with some wind you start an efficient fire that can spread like crazy. I believe that the fire that were generated in Lebanon was activated by Israel via drones.

Thinker and philosopher Zeno is born in Cyprus, a province of Syria in 490 BC. Four of the more than 40 thought experiments he is said to have devised are most often employed as vivid introductions to the intersection of math and philosophy, where something readily apparent is a challenge to definitively prove.

The most powerful of Zeno’s paradoxes grapple with the concept of infinity while pitting observable reality against the scientific language we use to describe that reality, suggesting that elements of the everyday, like motion and speed, are actually illusory. A few of Zeno paradoxes:

Dichotomy paradox: If you want to walk across the room, you have to first walk half that distance, then half the remaining distance, ad infinitum, so how do you ever get there?

Achilles paradox: If a turtle gets a head start in a race against Achilles, Achilles has to cover half the distance between himself and the turtle in order to catch up. Then half that. And half again. And again. In an upset, the turtle wins!

Arrow paradox: At any given instant, an arrow in flight occupies a certain space, no more and no less. At the next instant, it occupies a different space. If you assume an instant is indivisible, the arrow is not in motion. So how does it move? “It is never moving, but in some miraculous way the change of position has to occur between the instants, that is to say, not at any time whatever,” as Bertrand Russell put it.

Stadium paradox: Imagine three sets of three bodies in stadium rows: three As, three Bs, three Cs. The As are stationary; the Bs are moving right; the Cs are moving left at the same speed. In the same timeframe, the Cs will pass just one of the As, but two of the Bs. Crazy, right? (It doesn’t seem like it, but if you think of space and time atomistically, they pass without passing.)

“Zeno’s arguments, in some form, have afforded grounds for almost all theories of space and time and infinity which have been constructed from his time to our own.”—Bertrand Russell

Other legendary paradoxes to mull:

 The Liar paradox, or Epimenides’s paradox: The Cretan philosopher is still remembered centuries later for the statement “all Cretans are liars”… get it?

 Buridan’s bridge: From the 14th-century Parisian philosopher and Aristotle expert Jean Buridan.

 Buridan’s ass: Inspired (but not created) by Buridan, it’s more paradoxical for machines than people.

 Torricelli’s trumpet: A mathematical creation outlining a cone that has finite volume but infinite surface area.

 Fitch’s paradox of knowability: “It tells us that if any truth can be known then it follows that every truth is in fact known.”

China’s alleged hacking efforts have borne fruit just as big data and artificial intelligence combine to make those massive databases useful, sortable, and studiable. As Barr said on Monday, “This data has economic value, and these thefts can feed China’s development of artificial intelligence tools as well as the creation of intelligence targeting packages.”

“Writing comes from reading, and reading is the finest teacher of how to write.” – Annie Proulx published Brokeback Mountain in the New Yorker in 1997.

“The more sci-fiction novels and stories you write, the more coincidences happens”. Kim Stanley Robinson.  In his 2005 novel “Forty Signs of Rain,” an epochal storm called Tropical Storm Sandy floods most of Washington, D.C. The book came out seven years before Superstorm Sandy pummeled New York, something Robinson chalks up to coincidence.⁠

A team of “experts” from the IMF heads to Lebanon to give “advice” as the country faces an economic meltdown. Lebanon has not yet asked the IMF for financial assistance, but yesterday was the worst day on record for the heavily indebted country’s bonds.

A few social media are promoting travel tips, encouragement and packagest. Excellent ideas:

First, with this outbreak of coronavirus, do you still think this post is timely?

Second, many States do Not have “colonial passports” (passport that allows you to travel without visas), have you considered the added cost and time consuming for applying to visas and expected problems in airport checkout? Third, are there Credit cards with low interest rates (and low penalties if you are Not carrying enough cash to cover the balance) while traveling for more than a month and these cards are accepted in the country you visits?

Late Polish journalist Ryszard Kapuscinski wrote in 1974: Quand on traverse la Syrie, la Jourdanie ou le Liban, tout est beauté, ordre et harmonie. On est dans un paradis de vergers d’orangers, de citronniers, d’oliviers et d’abricotiers.
