Priorities in Life and Death

Priorities in Life and Death

 

When you got to go, you got to go, this is coming from Jurassic Park movie.

In our country, people hold onto power for ages not looking back and reflecting on crimes they have committed and deaths toll that mounted from 1970 to 2000.

All those in power except Dudley Senanayake has committed crimes in the name of National Security.

 

There was no exception, for the greed for power. 

 

That includes leaders of Singapore, Malaysia and now Ceylon.

In this country, children and babies are traded and organ transplanted in India to drug kingpins and a coterie of doctors run this organ Mafia.

So impending death of a moribund is traded with kidneys of babies and children traded live and even their bones are not spared.

 

This happens in America, too.

 

Those who live on parts of others should be ashamed unless the parts are donated by a twin sibling or a near relative.

I will never donate my organs or live on another's parts except for cornea for blindness.

 

This is incompatible in a country where believing in another life is the cornerstone.

 

So when you have to go “let go”, the most Rev. Ajahn Brahma Wanso’s meditation technique.

 

World population is growing fast and without (for me a top priority), a global population policy, “let go” is the survival strand for this planet.

 

If this is not addressed, natural control by Coronavirus will take precedence.

That is the reality with a mass movement, air travel, refugees of war-torn countries and now the economic downturn.

 

Few of my priorities are

1. Improvement in cheap Telecoms connectivity with more satellites in Space.
2. Cut down on Space Travel (less or more gravity is incompatible with our physiology), Space Exploration and Rocket Science.
3. More satellites on space for formal education.
4. Population control with only two children per family (any additional child the parents should bear, the costs and no religious favours)
5. No religious teaching or conversion of children until they are 25 years. The terrorists and suicide killers are recruited between the age of 15 and 25.
6. I believe religions cause more harm than good and moral code or ethics should be applied only to politicians and their putative parties. The laymen should be free to create his/her own religion after 35 (when the brain cells start dying at a faster rate) and should own it as copyright and should not allow anybody else to copy even after death.
7. I believe that will settle most of our problems who declare that religion is a must, even though it leads to a blind ally.

Discovery of Grammerly and Firefox Integration

Discovery of Grammerly and Firefox Integration

Coronavirus lock down and incarceration have made me to discover the potential of writing without a keyboard.

I was trying to have a virtual grammerly keybord in my Linux box.

I failed but discovered that I can use grammerly as an add on on Firefox for my blogging.

Unlike Google it does warn me of grammatical mistakes and typos.

In my age mistakes are plenty and I wanted to give up blogging on account of recurrent mistakes.

I can upload files from my computer.

Now I will not give up but continue.

It has a subscription protocol for serious writers.

Thank YOU and I wish you success.

 

My First Note in Spike

 My First Note in Spike

I was ambiguous of my first note, simply because I have lost interest in many fields including medical matters.

1. I lost interest in politics after 50 years of its observation globally.
2. Then I lost interest in religion, that dated back to my childhood but hiding behind the masses who follow one or other form of it. Then after my retirement from active work, this resurfaced in vigour, questioning their contribution to humanity.
3. Then I lost interest in helping (not empathy) the beggars. My idea of creating (including political, I prefer a different word sounding similar but would be nice here) a beggar in any form is counterproductive.
4. Then, to keep me occupied I stared feeding all the dogs, where ever I meet then.
5. Finally, I developed a keen interest in birds after noting disappearance of sparrows, that made me to visit Bird’s Park in Singapore. Then I developed the idea of making bird friendly environment.The cats (snakes,too) are their biggest enemies but the biggest impact is from unregulated agricultural poisons dished out that get deposited in the ovaries and eggs.
6. Finally Coronavirus came in and it made me to wake up from slumber, as it was.
7. By the way, this piece is medical.
8. We were taught to be very careful when dispensing steroids due to many (some exaggerated) of its side effects. After the loss of two children who were under my care (due to D.J.V.P insurrection in 1989) who could not reach me (cell phones were not available then) physically, I totally revised my policy globally, in Ceylon and abroad dishing out steroids, (especially Dexamethasone) liberally. A reserve course (dose depending on the individual) of steroids was given to each deserving family, with an instruction to take the first dose and see any available (Typed Note was dispensed, no computers then) medical person (do not go on looking for me). The reason is, their is delay in action of steroids for 8 hours or more. This saved many an agony to many of my patients. Now for Coronavirus, there is no treatment.
9. At least to avoid respiratory complications that result from various kinds of interleukins, a fast and furious (this new terminology of mine, furious to mean large and aggressive dose of steroids) dose of dexamethasone should be given, (not chloroquine) with the onset of respiratory symptoms, and if any need arises a course of antibiotics.
10. This will SAVE lot of lives.

Incubation Period

Incubation Period of Viral Diseases I call it, ICP for short. It is very important to estimate the incubation period of diseases, not only for epidemiological reasons and isolation but also for recognition of the virus. Icubation period is the time in between the time of exposure to the time of onset of symptoms and signs of the disease. Good old days for hepatitis we had only two hepatitis viruses, A and B but extensive studies fifty years ago revealed much more up to 20 or more and we lost interest and would focus only on B and D. This is true for Coronavirus, especially because it is coming out of animal kingdom of Chinese wet markets. I think Chinese wanted to hide facts for its own economic reasons and survival in the global market place. I give credit to President Trump at least even lately for quedtioning, the Chinese secrecy, if not their wisdom. All the others kept numb and did not question them. The WHO was an adversary on this regard. The Chinese are known for their wisdom but not the current bunch of Communist carders. The incubation periods are specific for viruses like small pox, chicken pox and measles, unlike bacterial infections of short duration. Even typhoid has 10 -14 day incubation petiod. Hepatitis B has up to 6 months incubation period and can spread by both inoculation and by faeco-oral route. We do not know the exact ICP of the 10 to 20 or more types of Coronaviruses. Each type has its own roughly exact ICP. Known the type by ICP may help the epidemiologists to plan ahead before catastrophe strikes. Immune antigen typinng takes a lot of painstaking studies and inevitable delay. I am against the 2 weeks blanket time period of isolation. With schools reopening and if there is a quick and rapid spread of the virus, if we are to gain headway, we need to isolate putative exposed contacts to, at least for a period of ICP plus a few more days of STRICT isolation. My bone of contention here is, if the incubation period is more than six weeks, this is most likely an enterovirus with more surreptitious spread spreading over years and not one summer or one winter (of discontent) of the current expectation of the doctors and politicians. There is anothet caveat here patients with various other diseases have to suffer patiently until WHO gets its act together before more blame will fall on them for inaction as opposed to timely action. For Ceylon the political euphoria will disappear into thin air, if they get their protocol incorrect. Judicious caution against the unintended paranoia that is required by those who are on the top management posts. Could we trust them since the election is over and done with it? What is happening in Australia and New Zealand is an eye opener. If it is a long incubation period enterovirus the streams will be contaminated with this virus including gardia lamblia, dinoflagellates and protista. Be vigilant. This virus has surprises in its fold.

Testing Anyline Typeface

Is is pretty good but needs some help and learning.
It is actually a scanner application.
Brainy workload in Digital World.
I am trying all typefaces including French so I delay my opinion, for the time being.

Nevertheless, I going to use it for some time.

Power Cuts

I is in my vivid memory that in 1989, then DJVP blasted three of the transformers near our house, the lady engineer told me this is the last I have in Kandy, any more blasts you have to buy a generator and generate electricity.
Sure, I did and I was the first to install a generator in our office and later in my home.
I was working for a foreign organization.
They were here to launch a satellite which India's RAW did not want.
India is the one who instigated DJVP and LTTE.
They lost two of their leaders as a result and we Kaditagamsnathan.
Coming to power cuts, I can remember then politicians telling, never more power cuts.
We have gone the full cycle and it is strange that very dame India is going to help us with coal power.
That will be the end of our forest and  hydroelectricity.
We never learn lessons from the past, India never was our friend.
The Muslim by descent
Azurudeen, the Indian captain was the only one who helped us when West Indians refused to travel here.
I was pretty happy for the descent of West Indians cricket who played politics instead of cricket.
The sad state of cricket today is the result of politics and not cricket of that day, people do not want to forget.

Tree is her home.

Tree is her home not water.

My yearly visitor

My yearly visitor
This one wants to share my chair.
I put her into the fish tank but she decided to climb the tree.
She is a tree dweller and once year come to lay eggs but usually late at night.
She decided to give me a photo opportunity, this time round in early afternoon.

Mathematical Analysis of Politics in Details

Mathematical Analysis of Politics in Details

1.Every thirds person did not bother to cast his or her vote.

In other words 3 out of ten.

 

2. Every third person does not have a representative of his or choice.

In other words 3 out of ten but two out of three have a representative of choice.

In other words 7 out of ten.

 

3. 12 million out of 16 million did bother to vote.

In other words 4 million stayed at home.

 

4. 5% out of the total 76% voting public had destroyed or incorrectly marked the ballot paper.

In other words 1 out of 20 does not give a scant regard to its validity (staying at home was a better option).

A (5%) statistically significant figure.

 

5. Election commissioner and his team has done a wonderful job of putting out this data accurately within 10 to 11 hours of counting which is a creditable task.

I wish our super-grade public servant Mahinda Deshapriya and his brother Sunanda Deshapriya (old time leftist politician) in political wilderness in USA happy retirement out of politics in Ceylon.

In a way, the voter has closed the door for democracy by his own wish for a long time to come.

You cannot complain but bite the teeth or dust, in return.

Active opposition is the live wire of democracy but that little kindle has extinguished, after 70 years of vibrant but eventful history of our politics.

ප්‍රතිඵලවලින් පසු ප්‍රතිඵල සෙවීම

නිමල් අබේසිංහ

මහ මැතිවරණයක් අහවරව පවතින මේ මොහොතේ ඒ පිළිබඳව විවිධ පාර්ශ්වයන්ගෙන් මැතිවරණ ප්‍රතිඵල ගැන විවිධාකාරයේ අර්ථ දැක්වීම් එළියට පැමිණෙමින් තිබේ.

ඔවුන් වෙතින් නැගෙන පළමු තර්කය ගෝඨාභය රාජපක්ෂ ජනාධිපතිවරණයේදී ලබා ගත් ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාවට වඩා අඩු ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාවක් මහ මැතිවරණයේදී ලබාගෙන ඇති බවය. මහ මැතිවරණයේදී ලබාගත් ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාව වන 6853698 හා ජනාධිපතිවරණයේදී ගෝඨාභය රාජපක්ෂ ලබා ගත් ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාව වන 6924255 ගත් විට එම සංඛ්‍යාවන්හි මුහුණතින් ගත් විට ඡන්ද ලක්ෂයක ප්‍රමාණයක් අඩුවී ඇති බව පෙනුණත් සැබැවින්ම අඩුවී ඇති බව පෙනෙන්නේ ඡන්ද 70557ක් බව පැහැදිලි වේ.

පරාජයක් නොවේ

මෙම අඩුව දක්නට ලැබුණද සැබැවින්ම එය ජනාධිපතිවරණය හා මහ මැතිවරණය සසඳන විට අඩුවීමක් නොවන බව පැහැදිලිය. ඊට හේතුවන්නේ ජනාධිපතිවරණයේදී ගෝඨාභය රාජපක්ෂගේ සහායට සිටි තවත් දේශපාලන පක්ෂ කීපයක දායකත්වය සැපයූ බව දන්නා බැවිනි. එසේ සහාය දැක්වූවන් මෙවර මහ මැතිවරණයේදී තරග වැදුණේ තනි තනිවමය. එම පක්ෂ සහ ඔවුන් ලබා ගත් ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාව මෙසේ පෙළ ගැසිය හැකිය. ඊපීඩීපී 61464, අපේ ජන බලවේගය 67752, ශ්‍රී ලංකා නිදහස් පක්ෂය 66572, තමිල් මක්කල් වඩිතලෙයි 67692 සහ ජාතික කොංග්‍රසය 34428 වශයෙනි. මෙම පක්ෂවල ඡන්ද එකතුව ඡන්ද 297908කි. මෙම පක්ෂවල ඡන්දද ජනාධිපතිවරණයේදී ගෝඨාභය රාජපක්ෂට ලැබුණේ යැයි උපකල්පනය කළහොත් මහ මැතිවරණයේදී පොදු පෙරමුණ ලබා ගත් ඡන්ද සංඛ්‍යාව (6853693+297908) = 7151601කි. එනිසා කිසිවෙකු හෝ මෙවර මහ මැතිවරණයේදී පොදු ජන පෙරමුණට ඡන්ද අඩුවී ඇතැයි තර්කයක් නගතහොත් එය සත්‍යයක් නොවේ.

මෙම ඡන්ද ප්‍රතිඵල සමග දැකිය හැකි සුවිශේෂී ලක්ෂණයක් වන්නේ ජේ.ආර්. ජයවර්ධන විසින් 1978දී හඳුන්වා දුන් විධායක ජනාධිපති ධුරයේ බලතල කප්පාදු වූ මොහොතක එනම් 19 වැනි ව්‍යවස්ථාව පවතින අවස්ථාවේදී පොදුජන පෙරමුණට තුනෙන් දෙකක බලය හිමිවීමය.

යක්ෂයා බිහිසුණුද?

“ඡන්ද ප්‍රතිඵලය දකින විට ලංකාවේ අනාගතය ගැන ලංකාවේ මිනිස්සුන්ගේ සිතුම් පැතුම් ගැන ඇඟ හිරිවැටෙන බියක් දැනේ.”
මේ ඡන්ද ප්‍රතිඵලය ගැන ලංකාවේ සුප්‍රසිද්ධ වෙබ් අඩවියක පළවූ අදහසකි. මෙරට මැතිවරණවලදී ඡන්දදායකයන්ගේ හැසිරීම් රටාව ගැන නිරීක්ෂණයක යෙදුණහොත් මේ මැතිවරණයේ ඡන්ද ප්‍රතිඵල ගැන අමුතු බියක් මේ මොහොතේ ඇතිකර ගැනීමේ වුවමනාවක් නැත.

එක් දහස් නවසිය හැත්තෑවේ මහ මැතිවරණයේදී සිරිමාවෝ බණ්ඩාරනායක ප්‍රමුඛ සමගි පෙරමුණේ ප්‍රධාන සටන් පාඨය වූයේ හඳෙන් හෝ හාල් ගෙනත් දෙනවා යන්නය. එයට මේ රටේ ඡන්දදායකයන් කොතරම් වශීකෘත වූයේද යත් ඔවුන් නැවතුණේ සමගි පෙරමුණට තුනෙන් දෙකක බලයක් ලබාදෙමිනි.

ඊළඟ අවස්ථාව නවසිය හැත්තෑ හතේ මහ මැතිවරණයය. සමගි පෙරමුණ ගෙන ගිය පාලනය ගැන කලකිරීමට පත්ව සිටි ජනතාවට ජේ.ආර්. ප්‍රමුඛ එජාපය පැවසුවේ සෑම අයෙකුටම සතියකට ධනය රාත්තල් අටක් නොමිලේ දෙන පොරොන්දුවය. එයින් මුසපත් වූවෝ ජේ.ආර්. ජයවර්ධනට සැලකුවේ දෝත පුරා හයෙන් පහක බලයක් පිරිනමමිනි.
ඉන් අනතුරුව මෙරට මැතිවරණ ඉතිහාසයේ සුවිශේෂී සන්ධිස්ථානයක් වනුයේ 2020 අගෝස්තු මහ මැතිවරණයය. එය වඩාත් වැදගත් වනුයේ මෙතෙක් කිසිදු මැතිවරණයකදී කිසිදු පක්ෂයක් තමන්ට පාර්ලිමේන්තුවේ තුනෙන් දෙකක බලයක් ඉල්ලා නොසිටි වාතාවරණයක් තුළ 2020 මහ මැතිවරණයේදී තමන්ට තුනෙන් දෙකක බලයක් ලබා දෙන්නැයි ප්‍රසිද්ධියේම ඡන්දදායකයන්ගෙන් ඉල්ලා සිටියේ මහින්ද සහ ගෝඨාභය රාජපක්ෂ හවුලය. මේ වනවිට එකී ඉල්ලීම රටවැසියා විසින් ඉටුකර දී තිබේ. පොදු ජන පෙරමුණට තුනෙන් දෙකක් නොවූවත් ඊට ආසන්නම මන්ත්‍රී ධුර සංඛ්‍යාවක් (මන්ත්‍රී ධුර 145ක්) ලබාදී ඇති අතර පොදු ජන පෙරමුණට සහාය දක්වන පක්ෂ ලබා ගත් මන්ත්‍රී ධුර සංඛ්‍යාවද සලකා බලන විට මුළු මන්ත්‍රී ධුර සංඛ්‍යාවද සලකා බලන විට මුළු මන්ත්‍රී ධුර සංඛ්‍යාව තුනෙන් දෙකද ඉක්මවා තිබේ. මෙම පසුබිම තුළ ඇතැමෙකු මේ ජයග්‍රහණය සම්බන්ධයෙන් බියක් දක්වන බවක්ද පෙනෙන්නට ඇත.
සමහරවිට මේ බිය දනවනු ඇත්තේ රාජපක්ෂවරුන්ගේ පූර්වාදර්ශයන් තරම්ම යහපත් නොව බැවින් විය හැකිය. එහෙත් මෙවර ජයග්‍රහණය ඔස්සේ එබඳු ක්‍රියාකාරකම් කෙරෙහි යොමුවන්නට තරම් රාජපක්ෂවරු අඥාන නොවනු ඇතැයි සිතිය හැකිය. එයට හේතුව මෙවර ජනතාව ඔවුන් කෙරෙන් අපේක්ෂාසහගත වන දේවල් ඉටු කිරීම හෝ නොකිරීම මත තමන්ගේ අනාගතය තීන්දු වන බව ඔවුන් අත්දැකීමෙන්ම දන්නා බැවිනි. එලෙසම ශ්‍රී ලංකාවේ මැතිවරණ ඉතිහාසයේ එවැනි සංසිද්ධීන්ද ඇති බැවිනි.
අභියෝග ජය ගැනීම
මැතිවරණය ආසන්න සමයේදී මෙන්ම මැතිවරණයට පෙරදීත් රට තුළ පැන නැගුණු ප්‍රධාන ප්‍රශ්න දෙකක් විය. ඉන් පළමුවැන්න සුප්‍රසිද්ධ එම්සීසී ගිවිසුමය. ඇමරිකාව හා ශ්‍රී ලංකාව අතර ඇතිකර ගැනීමට යෝජනාවෙමින් තිබූ මෙම ගිවිසුම කෙරෙහි රටෙහි ජනයා තුළ දැඩි විරෝධයක් මතුවීම හේතු කොටගෙන එවකට පැවති භාරකාර රජය ලෙසින් රාජපක්ෂ ආණ්ඩුවට මෙම ගිවිසුම සම්බන්ධයෙන් නැගුණ ජනතා විරෝධය ප්‍රබල විය. ගිවිසුම සම්බන්ධයෙන් විමර්ශනය කිරීමට කමිටුවක්ද පත් කිරීමට ඔවුනට සිදුවූයේ එනිසාය. ආර්ථික විද්‍යාව පිළිබඳ උගතෙකු වූ ආචාර්ය ලලිතසිරි ගුණරුවන්ගේ ප්‍රධානත්වයෙන් ක්‍රියාත්මක වුණ මේ කමිටු වාර්තාව අනුවද එම්සීසී ගිවිසුම ශ්‍රී ලංකාවට යහපත් ආකාරයෙන් බලනොපාන බවට කරුණු ඉදිරිපත්ව ඇත.
මැතිවරණ සමයේදීම පැන නැගුණු ඊළඟ බරපතළ ප්‍රශ්නය කොළඹ වරායේ නැගෙනහිර පර්යන්තය සම්බන්ධ ගැටලුවය. එය ඉන්දියාවට පැවරීමට යන්නේය යන කාරණය මත සියලු වරාය සේවකයන්ගේ දැඩි විරෝධයක් මතුවූ අතර එයට අග්‍රාමාත්‍ය මහින්ද රාජපක්ෂට ඍජුවම මැදිහත්වීමටද සිදුවිය. ආණ්ඩුව පත්වීම සමගම කුළුඳුලේම මේ ප්‍රබල ප්‍රශ්න දෙකට මුහුණදීමට ඔවුනට සිදුවනු අනිවාර්යය. විශේෂිතම කාරණය වන්නේ රාජපක්ෂවරුන්ගේ ජයග්‍රහණ උදෙසා දායක වූ පිරිස් බොහොමයක්ම එම්සීසී ගිවිසුම අත්සන් කරනවාට මෙන්ම කොළඹ වරායේ නැගෙනහිර පර්යන්තය ඉන්දියාවට පවරනවාට විරුද්ධවූවන් වීමය.
කිසියම් අයුරකින් මෙම ගිවිසුම් අත්සන් කිරීමට නව ආණ්ඩුව පෙළඹුණහොත් කුමක් වනු ඇතිද? එහිදී මේ ගිවිසුම්වල තිබෙන මෙරටට අයහපත් ලෙස බලපාන කොන්දේසි සංශෝධනය කර මේ ගිවිසුම් අත්සන් කරන බවට ආණ්ඩුව පාර්ශ්වයෙන් ප්‍රකාශයට පත්වීමේ ඉඩක්ද තිබේ. එහෙත් එවැනි හුරතල් කතාවලට රැවටෙන්නට තරම් රාජපක්ෂවරුන් බලයට පත් කළ පිරිස් සූදානම් වේවිද? එය ආණ්ඩුව අනාගතයේදී මුහුණ දෙන ප්‍රබල ගැටලුවකි.
කොවිඞ් 19 වසංගතය හේතුවෙන් මේ වනවිටත් රටේ ආර්ථිකය පවතින්නේ පතුළ නොපෙනන නාරාවළකය. කොවිඞ් 19හි බලපෑම නිසා රටේ විදේශ ආදායම හොඳටම පල්ලම් බැස තිබේ. විදේශ ශ්‍රමිකයන්ගෙන් ලැබෙන ආදායම, ඇඟලුම් කර්මාන්තයෙන් ලැබෙන ආදායම මෙන්ම සංචාරක කර්මාන්තයෙන් ලැබෙන ආදායම ඇනහිටි තත්ත්වයක පවතී. මේ හේතුව නිසා රටේ විදේශ සංචිත පෙට්ටගමේ පවතින විදේශ මුදල් ප්‍රමාණය සොච්චමක් වී ඇත. ලෝකයේම කොවිඞ් තත්ත්වය නිසා ඇතිවුණ ආර්ථිකය කඩා වැටීම මෙරටට එන බලපෑමද සුළුපටු නොවේ. එම ආර්ථික දුර්විපාක 2021 වනතුරුත් බලපාන බව නොරහසක් වන්නේ ඒ බැව් ජාත්‍යන්තර ආර්ථික විශේෂඥයන්ද අනතුරු අඟවා ඇති බැවිනි.
මෙකී අටෝ රාශියක් ප්‍රශ්න අබිමුව තුනෙන් දෙකක බලයක් ගත් රාජපක්ෂවරුන් කුමක් කරනු ඇතිද යන්න වඩාත් හොඳින් බලා සිටින්නේ ඔවුන්ට ඡන්දය දුන් බහුතරයක් ජනතාවම බව ඔවුන් අමතක කළ යුතු නැත. ලිපිය ලියන මොහොත වන 2020 අගෝස්තු 12 වන විට නව ආණ්ඩුවේ කැබිනට් මණ්ඩලය පත්කර හමාරය. 19 ආණ්ඩුක්‍රම ව්‍යවස්ථාව ප්‍රකාරව පත් කළ හැකි උපරිම කැබිනට් අමාත්‍ය ධුර සංඛ්‍යාව 30ක් වුවත් රාජපක්ෂවරුන් සිය කැබිනට් මණ්ඩලය ඇමතිවරු 26කට සීමා කර තිබේ.

කැබිනට් අමාත්‍යවරුන්ගේ සංඛ්‍යාව 26ක් වුවත් රාජ්‍ය ඇමතිවරුන් 39ක්ද පත් කරන බව ප්‍රකාශයට පත්ව ඇත. ඒ අනුව ඇමති ධුර සංඛ්‍යාව 65ක් වී තිබේ. තිබෙන තොරතුරු අනුව තවත් නියෝජ්‍ය අමාත්‍යවරුන් සංඛ්‍යාවක්ද පත් කිරීමට නියමිතය. මේ සා විසල් ඇමතිවරුන් සංඛ්‍යාවක් පත් කිරීම තුළ සිය සගයන් සංතුෂ්ටියට පත් කිරීම උදෙසා සිදුකරන්නක් සේ පෙනේ. මෙය රටෙහි පවතින ආර්ථික අර්බුදය හමුවේ රටට ඔරොත්තු නොදෙන්නකි.

රාජපක්ෂවරුන්ට බලය පැවරූ අයගේ අභිමතාර්ථයන්ට පටහැනිවීමක්ද වේ. පොදු ජන පෙරමුණට බලය පැවරූ පිරිස මේ කෙරෙහි කුමන ප්‍රතිචාරයක් දක්වාවිද යන්න තවමත් තීරණය කළ නොහැක.

ඕනෑම අයකුට ලැබෙන අසීමිත බලය බොහෝ විට තමන්ගේම විනාශයට හේතුවන බවට කියමනක් තිබේ. මේ බලයෙන් ඉදිමී වරක් අත පුච්චා ගත් රාජපක්ෂවරුන් මෙවර ලබා ගත් බලයෙන්ද ඉදිමී කටයුතු කළහොත් එය ඔවුන්ගේ විනාශය කැඳවා ගැනීමක් වන බව නොසලකා කටයුතු කරාවිද?

එජාපයට කුමක් වේද?

Medical Note

I was ambiguous of my first note, simply because I have lost interest in many fields including medical matters.

1. I lost interest in politics after 50 years of its observation globally.
2. Then I lost interest in religion, that dated back to my childhood but hiding behind the masses who follow one or other form of it. Then after my retirement from active work, this resurfaced in vigour, questioning their contribution to humanity.
3. Then I lost interest in helping (not empathy) the beggars. My idea of creating (including political, I prefer a different word sounding similar but would be nice here) a beggar in any form is counterproductive.
4. Then, to keep me occupied I stared feeding all the dogs, where ever I meet then.
5. Finally, I developed a keen interest in birds after noting disappearance of sparrows, that made me to visit Bird’s Park in Singapore. Then I developed the idea of making bird friendly environment.The cats (snakes,too) are their biggest enemies but the biggest impact is from unregulated agricultural poisoned dished out that get deposited in the ovaries and eggs.
6. Finally Coronavirus came in and it made me to wake up from slumber, as it was.
7. By the way, this piece is medical.
8. We were taught to be very careful when dispensing steroids due to many (some exaggerated) of its side effects. After the loss of two children who were under my care (due to D.J.V.P insurrection in 1989) who could not reach me (cell phones were not available then) physically, I totally revised my policy globally, in Ceylon and abroad dishing out steroids, (especially Dexamethasone) liberally. A reserve course (dose depending on the individual) of steroids was given to each deserving family, with an instruction to take first dose and see any available (Typed Note was dispensed, no computers then) medical person (do not go on looking for me). The reason is, their is delay in action of steroids 8 hours or more. This saved many an agony to many of my patients. Now Coronavirus, there is no treatment. At least to avoid respiratory complications that result from various kinds of interleukins, a fast and furious (this new terminology of mine, furious to mean large and aggressive dose of steroids) dose of dexamethasone should be given, (not chloroquine) with the onset of respiratory symptoms, and if need arises a course of antibiotics.
9. This will SAVE lot of lives.

Mathematical Analysis of Politics in a Nutshell

  Mathematical Analysis of Politics in a Nutshell

1.Every thirds person did not bother to cast his or her vote.

In other words 3 out of ten.

 

2. Every third person does not have a representative of his or choice.

In other words 3 out of ten but two out of three have a representative of choice.

In other words 7 out of ten.

 

3. 12 million out of 16 million did bother to vote.

In other words 4 million stayed at home.

 

4. 5% out of the total 76% voting public had destroyed or incorrectly marked the ballot paper.

In other words 1 out of 20 does not give a scant regard to its validity (staying at home was a better option).

A (5%) statistically significant figure.

 

5. Election commissioner and his team has done a wonderful job of putting out this data accurately within 10 to 11 hours of counting which is a creditable task.

I wish our super-grade public servant Mahinda Deshapriya and his brother Sunanda Deshapriya (old time leftist politician) in political wilderness in USA happy retirement out of politics in Ceylon.

In a way, the voter has closed the door for democracy by his own wish for a long time to come.

You cannot complain but bite the teeth or dust, in return.

Active opposition is the live wire of democracy but that little kindle has extinguished, after 70 years of vibrant but eventful history of our politics.

 

Outlook on Life and World View

Now that I have given a list of probabilities and possibilities in life in general as described by others, including religious leaders, if I do not put my own outlook and perspective, here, I am doing an injustice to this blog site where I have raised even the possibility or probability of aliens living among us using shape shifting technology.
 
I am scientific in outlook and generally empathetic to the down trodden man on the street, and certainly, in a way of Carl Marx ideology but quite liberal in attitude to somebody like Bertrand Russel (borrowed ideas from them liberally).
Charles Darwin was a hero to me and I generally hated the Church but never showed it externally, except leaving the Catholic school abruptly, causing concern to my parents.
I cannot remember the details of my early childhood.
I hated the cloak that the priests wear.
I was forcibly put in a dark room by one of them, probably due to trespassing law of the church.
I neither feared the guy nor the dark treatment.
Then, I was thrown out of the class by the Bible class master, for asking probing questions.
Then from outside during the morning break, I told my friends to ask more probing questions, and eventually all Buddhist children were thrown out and while my Christian friends toiled in the class we played, "catch me if you can" type of games.
By the way, I excelled in short distance running, and the school was known for producing long distance endurance runners.
I had a good friend, named Donald Williams, a Jaffna Tamil, who remained in the class due to his good upbringing and conservatism.
I abruptly left the school and my friend within a month back to Jaffna.
If I remember right, his father was a school inspector of those days.
He kept in touch with me and he failed (would have been a better doctor than me) to enter the medical school.
He ultimately left to Australia, may be to have "one final go" at medicine but failed to keep in touch, like most of my friends who have migrated.
If goals (in his case, father who was a school inspector) were set for children at an early stage, when they fail they go into a core.
My friend Donald in my assessment would have made a model professor of medicine, if he was left to go on his own pace.
I was offered double promotion twice.
I declined, simply because, I did not want to break up with my class friends who were more valuable to me, even to this day, than the teachers of my time. 

Their assessment of me was precise. 
 
I helped two guys who had higher goals having failed the advanced level twice.
I emphasized the need to enter the university as the goal and not to worry about the career.
One entered medicine and had enormous problems including alcoholism but made it through with my tutoring.
The other who failed, has a PhD from America.
I hated PhD, for me a non-returner (just like in Buddhist terminology of achieving the supreme goal) with limited scope.
I cannot remember the questions I raised, probably not philosophical but topical of the day.
I did not like my mother trying Pali stanza on me, either.
I may have asked "Do a kid at my age who was uncorrupted need  the Christian Theology against a simple but budding scientist?"
 
There was again then the Conspiracy of the Church, of conversion and offering government jobs preferentially to Christians.
There was political movement or anti- Christian movement, by Buddhist guys.
I felt they were mad hatters, equally bad.
These guys promoted national dress which I hate to present day.
To me these guys are stupid and intolerant sometime worse than the Church.
Coming to the national dress I new a guy from a leading Buddhist school, who for his own arrogance (he was much junior but a guy with perseverance, if not intelligence) wanted to wear the national dress to the block.
If he asked me then, I would have not only discouraged but physically obstructed him entering, the block.
All done before I knew it.
He made a hash of things and his goal to be part of the medicine department was thwarted by his own stupidity.
The conservatism was deeply ingrained in our time and attacking it from front end was detrimental.
Even back end was not possible.
He was not shortlisted for any of the the permanent or seconded posts with me applying and I had to withdraw five of the six applications, finally waiting until department of pathology felt vacant.
That, I got it by pleading the Secretary of Health, that I hated pathology, please do not send me there.
I got the appointment in double quick time.
Whereas, the guy was not called for a single interview.
He came to see me and asked for help. I said I am not a university guy but seconded officer from health on temporary basis.
On his perseverance, I asked him to apply to biochemistry department, depleted with medical guys with all chemistry graduates who hated me because, I would stand up to them, and in person on medical matters.
He was selected to the permanent staff on probationary basis.
I can remember then, the Dean under whom I was working, asking me about him of his reliability.
I said his goal is medicine and not biochemistry, investing on research under him is liability for the university money, hard to come by then under NM and Sirima.
He had no idea of a research project and one day, he came to me again.
I asked him to come back in two weeks.
I told him to study relationship of grey hair to thyroxine, which he did and I scrutinized his writing before it was presented.
It was accepted by the researched committee without any corrections.
He, within six months disappeared and did not have the courtesy to tell me.
No surprise at all to me.
Years later, he came for a guest lecture in the same department and I was the only listener in the audience.
He was shocked but we had a cup of tea at the canteen and that was the last time I saw him.
The Church press its buttons to a degree and no more.
I would have been expelled from the school but they did not.
I made my own decision to leave the school abruptly, making it easy for them.
These movements probably had made me to be critical of all religions and they could not change my inborn scientific quests.
Even, though, I joined a leading Buddhist school in the city, I can claim that I learned the first few vulgar vernaculars there but in defense of the Christian school, not a single vulgar word but all the niceties to fellow beings.
I did have a liking for Karma (but I want it happening in present tense than in the future tense), in other words its objectivity, in real time and terms.
I was not comfortable with rebirth, since I have to kick the bucket to enjoy it.
Being a medical man for me this life with all its limitations is better to hold onto than give it up lightly.
In that sense, I strongly oppose suicide and euthanasia, even my own dog.

So rebirth was itching point of context.

Having said that, I have had minimal premonition or few deja vu feeling of wanting to go to a country like New Zealand.
Though, the period I spent there was very short, nevertheless, very eventful in real life terms.
I have a strange familiarity with United Kingdom and finding jobs with frequent changes was not to my liking.
For some reason I wanted to leave U.K. and strangely enough ended up down under N. Z.
Just in speculation, not in any way by rationalization, I have a strange feeling of familiarity of having been there in a past life.
For Ceylon, except for lovely warm weather, stunning scenery, waterfalls and large array of birds, I have some aversion, probably due to violent  politics and the ungainly antics of Buddhist monks.
In other words, I am ambivalent about life, rebirth and Kamma, altogether, an unwelcome affliction to all forms of religions.
I do not want to be labeled an atheist but a free thinker with scientific bend.

Peril of Democracy and US Riot Commission Report

It is over 50 years from the 1967 Racial Riots in US and it looks like history repeating itself.
I am not sure how I managed to get a copy of the book (second hand).
It is a comprehensive report, the credit should go to President Lyndon B Johnson for its initiation and the commission members for their impartial reporting.
The book was made available for worldwide distribution because of its political importance.
Ceylon was known for its Racial Riots, well before America and we never get to see even the shoddy reports to read or how the recommendations were implemented.
Our Racial Riots were in 1950s, a decade before America.
We had Buddhist monks plotting to kill politicians, in the name of Buddha-Rakkitha, who was lethal to Dhamma and Politicians.
We had a monk who probably did not kill (I think Ossei Corea did) sent to gallows by concocted evidence or faked evidence.
End result included protracted civil unrest and excesses on both sides.
We have had Whahabi Influenced church and hotel bombing, lately.
The end result is we are shifting towards a military control or government.
The peril of Democracy and some Buddhist monks see it as the failure of the democracy and give blessing to invoke a  military administration.
The book highlights the problem that the black people have.
It projects the black population to almost double by about 1987 to nearing 25 millions.
Their problems include poor housing, overcrowding, unemployment and increasing crime and segregation in metropolitan cities ringed by suburbs where 100% whites are domiciled.
Obama has come and gone but have they read this book and initiated remedial actions?
I think, Big No. 

The Democrats are using blacks and browns as their block vote bank for coming to power. 
 
They would do some patch work but won't have a solution to stop segregation, in ghettos in 1967 but now in metropolitan cities including Washington.
My simile here is Ceylon.
Will America also might slip into military hardware and software?
Democracy at peril both here and America.
Sure, some guys here want to emulate suppressive Chinese regime in China and Hong Kong in Ceylon.
 
I do not think America want to slip and ride into authoritative or military administration.
 
Beware!
 
History is unpredictable both here and far.

Why I have decided to boycott watching CNN?

Very simple.
It is partisan and never any balance in reporting.
Journalists never show any professionalism.
The supporting anchors and participating guys/girls are even worse.
No intellectual inputs but same dumb arguments.
The tipping point was a democratic women of Asian origin whose attack on the Attorney General (who is a public servant) was premeditated and blunt.
To stifle and not to hear the counter arguments.
I cannot see how these women over 80 never consider retiring from politics.
I guess they have no home or children have left them in disgust.
No motherly instinct at all but like witches in children stories.
If they come into power it is disaster for America.
If American politics is so fissured or fractured Putin who is becoming unpopular in Russia gets a political bonus.
I won't miss anything for the next 6 months, not watching CNN.
Same old rigmarole.
My advice for President is to ignore them and focus bashing WHO to begin with and their cohorts in China spreading virus all over the world.
I think airlines, especially Singapore Airline was the major factor spreading the virus.
With positive pressure needing for maintaining an adequate oxygen supply, filtering air of the virus is near impossibility.
Ceylon was saved by Singapore Airline having limited service and due to bankruptcy of Sri-Lankan Airways.
All most 99% of the infected patient came by airlines to Ceylon.
With impending large scale spread in India, we are going to get boatloads of infected patients from India.
Chinese workers except party guys are treated like slaves without democratic norms.
They are going to destroy Honk Kong, too.
All good work of UK down the drain.
BBC News in the meantime raised its standard including weather reporting.

Sensing the New Look of my Blog

Sensing the New Look of my Blog.

It is a dull day today due to election with nothing else to do I started looking at the new blogger. It has changed into a web page with minimum effects. Luckily my knowledge of a text page from my thesis writing I got the hang of it.

It seems like  Google is crunching on web resources. One can customize it to a very limited extent and I cannot remove the label (which I did not put) on the right hand side.One cannot delete them or edit them to begin with. What I did was to hide them (that means the label function is lost). Fortunately my cell phone has better look of the page and the SwiftKey I use for typing does more than what an average keyboard does. I am a keyboard addict and it is making my working easy without typos and errors.The cell phone induces me to make lot of errors and I have to work around them, so that my friends who read them ignore my writing thinking I am gone mad.

Anyway its preview (which I never use ) view keep me in right mind and sense.

It is difficult for an geriatric to work around them but I will survive.

In any case I would retire from this passion soon and enjoy life watching birds in my neighborhood.

How I registered myself as a List MP?

It is not easy to become a elected member or MP.
 
It is even difficult to become a List MP
 
Let me describe the protocol.
I got a registered letter from a New Party of Origin (N. P. O. for short) to say, I got to come to the parliament on the 10th of August for registration.
 
This was interesting, I did not register for any party and I do not even have a valid vote.
I gave a call to the secretary, that there was a big mistake made, inadvertently. 

In other words a major error made.
 
Then, she said my name is the last in the list and I have been selected as a valid nominee.

How come?
She said they frankly did not expect as many MPs elected as have happened, in the election.
My name was selected randomly from a current Web page and she forgot to inform me in advance.
She reminded me to bring  certified copies of birth certificate, married certificate, national identity card, certified copy of passport photo and interestingly a certified copy of my father's or mother's death certificate.

She said, if I have any affidavits to support any other names not listed by the election commissioner, if I have any, please let me bring them in addition.
 
I told her I have many affidavits to that claim, and I am the same and the only currently existing guy.
I immediately booked an early morning train ticket for me and a guy to help me, in case I am incarcerated in the lobby of the Parliament.
The list of the affidavits:
1. My name ends with ke but the name in the Election Commissioner's list was ka.
Certification to the effect of ke=ka.
2. Certification of ASB=SBA, of the initials.
3. Certified copy by the election commissioner that I was in the List MPs List.
4. Certified copy from the N. P. O. that I was in their list.
5. By 9.30am we reached the parliament. 
It was a very busy place.
We were not allowed in, since my name was not in the list which the security officer had.
6. I was asked to go to the secretary of the Parliament and get a certified letter to enter my name into the main list.
I had to pay Rs. 5000/=
Special paper Rs.2999/=.
Rs. 2000/= as default fee for the cheque I tendered. 
I do no why 2999 and what happens to the extra rupee!
7. I had to get a letter from the additional secretary for my name to be added in the list for August 10, on the main secretary's list.
8. After about 2 hours, I was called in.
9. I was asked to go to the election commissioner's office and get a new copy supporting my election.
10. I went there,  the officers were nice.
They told me to bring two new affidavits to support the claim, and one for their own records and one to be given to the parliament secretary.
11. I requested 3 copies (one for my record keeping) and paid Rs. 3000/=.
12. Armed with all these, we went back to the parliament.
I gave the extra copy to my agent for safe keeping.
13. I was asked have you been an Ex-MP?
NO.
I was asked to stay in the lobby but my friend was not allowed.
I was asked to pay Rs. 30,000/=.
That included default fee of Rs. 5000/=, which I did not pay, since we had three hour waiting for approval of my agent to sign, as a witness.
14. I had to appoint my friend as my personal secretary and get his name certified as my agent, by the Parliament secretary.
Went back to secretary again.
After three hours, of delay (they were on lunch break), and I got my agent registered. 

By the way, in this country even the dead casts the vote. 
 
They collect all the death certificates and send them to each polling agent.
They have a way about this operation, which I am not privy to.
Yes, when I checked my father in law, long gone had voted, before my checking, the officer at the polling booth.
 
I decided to Not to register my name over 20 years, claiming that I was abroad.
15. My friend had a bright idea.
Let us go and celebrate in the Liqueur Lounge.
We went there and we're told only for registered and Ex-MPs.
What about a soft drink?
No, the answer.
One nice guy there offered us two bottled water from a large bin as compliments.
We collected them and wanted to go to the loo for a vee, vee.
16.There was a big queue of about 500 guys there, all fully douched in alcohol, lining up for a vee, and some on their way veering and veeing.
 
We did not go to the lady's side.
I looked at the watch 2.30pm and decided to rush to the railway station.
As I was peeing, I woke up.
Yes, it was a dream.
Yes I had this dream, because I was holding my urge to vee in my sleep.
 
It was a matter of sleep or dream or vee, vee.

Value, Design and Future Perspective

Our current value will decide the basis of our intended design of the future.
If we go on, without objective/s, we would end up, in a blind alley.
This is so in economics, politics and even worse, socially.
 
It is pretty obvious in Ceylon and US we are heading for the cliff edge.
 
Sometimes, I think we are going backward, politically.
Simply because we do not have potent democratic values and a correct political design of flexibility. 

We are groping in the dark. 
 
The movement is generally, unidirectional and never multidimensional and that is also only towards the future and not the current predicament exposed by the Coronavirus.
I have no inclination on probing these biological, economic and social arenas.
There are lot of guys already driving their efforts including Dr. Fauci, valiantly in many fields including immunology.
 
I need to say few words about him here, for posterity.
His dress is smart.
His sporting hat was fitting but not his throw.
I believe, the ball given to him had lead weight in it.
Should have given him a tennis ball.
His composure was solid, in spite of many political slips, only rivaling President.
His scientific design and presentation were excellent.
His composure was solid and remarkable.
 
He does not go, round about way like politicians.
The recent senate hearing or review was indictment on all the CNN journalists, making their own political slips through, not the scientific know how.
Now, I prefer, more of abstract dimensions that will even envy Steven Hawking.
However, it would fit in with the 5 dimensions out of the 13 postulated in mathematical dimensions.
 
That will leave me dark energy and dark matter and shape shifting technology to ponder and send me to the nearest galaxy outside our own, at least in theoretical sense.
