        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deepak Chopra, getting himself into the p.r. action of CV, says hand-washing’s not enough. Hygiene needs brain-boosting too. Like: “Important to practice mental hygiene because stress weakens our immune system.”</p><p>Jewel and he co-produced “The Mindfulness Movement.” Was for theaters. Now not. The doc’s online Friday.</p><p>Jewel used the techniques to escape homelessness, get her act together, and last week, a quarantine concert from her bedroom raised $550,000 for mental health.</p><p>She says: “Mindfulness reduces silent symptoms of anxiety, fear and depression.”</p><p>Yeah, but besides babble, us homebound need Brillo and Bounty.</p><h3>Hard out here for gossip</h3><p><strong>Adam Rathe of Town + Country online</strong> about CV affecting gossip: “Cindy Adams is running out of things to write. The reigning doyenne of New York City chatter has been stuck inside her Park Avenue penthouse [now 3 ¹/₂ weeks] and the tongues of the city’s tipsters have noticeably slowed their wagging. ‘Soon,’ she says, ‘I’m going to have to reprise an exclusive sit down I once had with Abraham Lincoln.’</p><p>“A problem for anyone in her position. With an unprecedented number of people practicing social distancing to stop the spread of the coronavirus, an entire ecosystem of cocktail parties, opening-night soirees, and VIP-room antics has ground to a halt. Restaurants are closed, events are canceled, Broadway shows are dark.</p><p>So, how do you gossip when everyone’s stuck inside?</p><p>“‘What can you write? It’s an impossibility,’ says Adams, whose dishy column runs four times a week in the New York Post. “ ‘People I once ignored and avoided, I’m now thrilled to speak to . . . I’m making a list of those who called me and those who didn’t, so I’ll know who to be nice to in the future.’ ”</p><h3>Casting a king</h3><p>Netflix&#8217;s “Tiger King’s” about Joseph Maldonado-Passage, called Joe Exotic, who’s in the can in Fort Worth, Texas, for 22 years. He did rude things like looking to knock off a rival, falsify wildlife records and animal abuse. I mean, not even the Democratic party would want him. They’re now turning this into a feature film. He’s bleached blonde. Near 60. So who they’re thinking should play this two-legged animal? Brad Pitt.</p><h3>Can&#8217;t win</h3><p>In 1976, when Gerald Ford reacted hastily to a swine flu pandemic, it contributed to losing his presidential election. A vaccine was launched and some died from the inoculation, and our government paid millions in claims.</p><p>Now it’s 2020. For not panicking pdq at CV’s earliest onset, Donald Trump was criticized. So, either the world turns or the worm turns.</p><h3>This doc needs new accessories</h3><p>Praise for omniscient, omnipresent scarf-lover Dr. Deborah Birx, who speaks alongside our president. But . . . please … someone clue her — once — once — stop those constant silk rags around her neck. Get one string of beads. A shoelace. Anything. Enough with ironing those daily old-style silk Hermès shmattas.</p><h3>Charles in charge</h3><p>Britain. Prince Charles’’ treatment includes Ayurveda. Historical roots known in the subcontinent 5,000 years, it means “science of life” in Sanskrit. Its Union Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga &amp; Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homeopathy (AYUSH) is also treating CV with alternative medicine.</p><h3>Watching Bill</h3><p>Staying in is staying tuned in. I’m hearing BillOReilly.com’s stats are way up, with something like 4 million page views. Unprecedented for an indie news Web site. More than Biden’s even stammered over.</p><hr /><p>Airlines in trouble. Like a 747 with hair under its wings? Like a pilot flying past the airport and landing in front of the unemployment office?</p><p>Not<strong><em> only in New York, kids, not only in New York.</em></strong></p>]]></content:encoded>
