My Theory of Space is very strange.
Nobody should take any cue out of it and try to develop a new or alternative physics.
Only for perusal and no critical analysis.
Just let go with Buddhist detached and unentangled approach.
If entangled it is your own misery.
Simply, I do not like the current physics and since I cannot destroy the current physics, just like the existing religious theories, I would like to take Micky Out of my own imagination gone riotious.
It is just like our mind.
Mind exists (I even contend that mind can exist in very subtle form without a brain base. If it exists only with brain base telepathy is impossible ecomplish) in relation to brain and we cannot pin point where it is located, just like our memory.
Mind is a form of energy and it can exist irrespective of material base.
Outrageous but true.
This analogy is not exact, since space just like mind we cannot see but it exists.
My bone of contention is the world is an infinite spectrum of energy forms, including mind energy and the beauty of any energy form is if any freedom or space is given it will be taken by an energy of higher form.
The current expansion of the universe can be explained without any difficulty if that ploy is used.
The existence of matter and it's spin on various axical points can also be explained and that energy of spin comes from the expended space energy as it move past the objects of matter.
Space cannot exist since any available space or freedom is taken up by some form of energy from the whole spectrum of energy including energy of space.
In this scenario, one does not envisage the boundary or limit of the universe.
Equally putative space in a nucleus of an atom can be discarded with no space but spectrum of energy concept.
UpThere are subtle gradation of energy forms invisible in submicroscopic or atomic range.
The putative theory that something comes from nothing (Almighty God is also done away with easily) is also discarded easily.
Every thing is nothing but energy including what we call space which is expanding.
From where does the energy of expansion comes from?
Equally energy cannot be destroyed but converted to more subtle energy forms innumerable both measurable and not measurable.
What we have is energy forms visible and detectable and energy form invisible and undetectable.
The current physics is based on detectable and visible energy and just like we cannot measure mind energy space energy cannot be varifiable but expressed by my imagination gone wild for that moment of theoretical analysis.
This is totally outside of the dark matter and dark energy and space energy exists on its own accord.
Dark matter and dark energy are an entirely different ball game and outside the scope of this entry.
Now I want to add few more spins into this space game.
There are entities without space and they are called black holes.
They cannot be seen and their presence can be surmised by the tangential reflection of light at its borders.
Even the light is absorbed or consumed and in that process some sort of reflection does take place.

My View of Theory of Space

Blood Grouping and Blood Transfusion Protocol
This was a procedural protocol and instructions, leading to blood Grouping and Blood Transfusion, I made while (to ensure Quality Control) working in a private medical institution.
I detected many systemic errors and finally recruited a medical graduate to supervise the procedure.
Most of the young guys and girls were poorly trained and ultimately computer typists were wrongly incriminated when something goes radically wrong.
The medical graduate was under my direct supervision, luckily for me she had worked briefly at the Colombo Blood Transfusion Center.
Happy to say, the short period of Quality Management Guidance, I did, nothing untoward happened.
Purpose
1. Eliminate errors at all levels
2. Streamline Procedure
Requirements and Objectives
Request Form, Report and the Computer Database should tally 100%.
Duplicate should be recorded separately for checking with the in ward entries.
01. Design customized Request Form for Blood Grouping and Blood Transfusion.
02. Only Blood Grouping and Transfusion needs should be entered in the form and nothing else.
03. It is necessary to develop a dedicated computer program for this purpose at the end of the initial observation period.
04. Any other investigation ( eg. Antenatal, VDRL, HIV status and Hb should be requested in different forms)
05. Person who does the ordering should be clearly stated.
Ideally he/she should fill and sign the request form.
06. Naming and labelling should be done by the same person.
Ideally the person who ordered the request should sample but if delegated to another person that person should cross check with the person who ordered the original request and sign appropriately.
07. At the reception and at the cashier's point, patient identification should be 100% accurate.
Full name should be entered and speckling should be correct.
For some such as medical examination and visa purposes National ID and Passport Number were required before payment and sampling.
08. When Grouping blood related donors the relationship to each other and to the patient should be clearly stated (father, mother, son, daughter etc).
09. A patient dedicated identification code should be designed and retained in the computer memory.
10. Identification details should be double checked before payment is obtained.
11. Whether testing is routine or urgent should be clearly stated.
12. Samples properly labelled and checked should be sent to the laboratory as soon as possible.
There should not be any delay.
13. Duplicate computer request form should be obtained as soon as possible.
14. The original and duplicate computer request form should be stapled together and not with clips or pins.
15. The seal should be eliminated.
What' the point.
Rubber stamping errors?
16. The computer request form and the original request form should have appropriate printed caging for entering results in detail
17. Testing should be done by the most experienced MLT.
If for any reason delegated to a junior MLT he/she should be supervised appropriately by the senior MLT.
18 As far as possible individual samples should be tested.
19. The report should go as a simple dedicated report and not grouped with other reports.
20. Unlike other reports when report is handed over it should be documented with a signature to avoid producing duplicate reports for misplaced of lost reports by the requested patient.
Now you wonder why this was posted.
I know nobody will read this.
One who is a care giver only should read from beyond this point.
With Coronavirus pandemic lot of errors of omissions and commission are committed in the intensive care units often affecting the first responders and care givers.
I used to say with 10 items (it is posted elsewhere) I could manage a rural hospital, which I did during Pan Polling days of Sirima and NM.
Saline
Pain killers IM
Diuretic Frusemide IV
Hydrocortisone then but potent dexamethasone derivative now
Nebulizer with Controlled Oxygen supply (28%) not avaible then but only a face mask
Plasma
Blood I never had
Broad spectrum antibiotics rarely used.
Good old days we realized some patients needed intensive care, often for post surgical patients.
Surgical Intensive Care was born.
Blood Transfusion Unit was the major supply unit.
I was a link man between the laboratory and blood bank and had lot of time to spare unlike other guys.
Girls were very few then in intensive care barring of course nurses.
I / we often lost lot of patients but saved a few important guys like retired old Prime Ministers and Venerable monks.
Lost was due to initial delay in recognising the very sick from the sick.
The patients in SHOCK or end organ failure.
Then we developed medical intensive care units.
Lastly the renal unit.
No liver transplantation units then.
I used to love teaching metabolic shock and organ failures.
1. Heart Failure
2. Respiratory Failure
3. Renal Failure
4. Liver Failure
5. No brain failure but management of the unconscious patient
The Shock or End Organ Failure was my favourite in later years as a pathologist, which I used to see under the microscope often in babies and infants without a diagnosis at hand.
Lately of course I migrated to interleukins in disarray.
In the private sector never had proper intensive care units now and then.
If they had they were poorly equipped with trained staff.
The medical institution I did my above observations did not have any.
The entry to the proposed emergency unit was permanently blocked by service lorries and it never functioned.
All the despairately sick we lumped together in a unit with absolutely no organisational principles.
Nobody wanted to take the responsibility and were shunted to the general hospital at the gate itself.
I took some interest and saved a young guy with Gillian Barre Syndrome or ascending encephaliomyelitis.
Three solid months of supervision and the duplicates of all his reports were with me.
I duly handed the duplicate file to the parents on discharge.
The hospital records were in tatters.
Incidentally university guy I befriends later had his surname and he told me that was his elder brother's son.
Life have many surprises!
NO MORE on this BLOG POST.
I go into hibernation!

Exit Stage
Exit Stage
This piece touches the tone of philosophy but has a little flavour of Buddhist outlook.
By the way, Buddhism is not a philosophy as propagated in the West but an advanced life style not seen in the Capitalistic World.
My animal.analogy is the most appropriate to describe the current human tragedy exposed by a tiny but powerful m or t RNA virus.
First 35 years is the dog stage where one tries to achieve his or her goal but many fail in this exercise and settle in the highest level of incompetency, where as described in Banking Principles (Peter Principle) one settles in his or her highest level of competency.
There is no upward climb but usually a downward slide.
The next level is the donkey stage and one only does the delegated work of his or her superior but boring nevertheless.
This lasts for 35 years.
The third stage is the Bird Stage (I entered this well before 70) where one reflects on self and on others and basically non judgemental.
An extremely difficult to achieve if one is married.
The birds are the best example where they are either in the free stage chirping on the tree tops or in escape mode from the seasonal rain, monsoon in particular.
Our Mynar is the classic example where he/ she has a beautiful malady even on a rainy day.
A happy chirpy guy but equally dominating the atmosphere.
Very few humans can enter Bird Stage but they slip prematurely into the next stage which is the fox stage and remain their until one kicks the bucket.
This Bird Stage lasts for only 10 years and one enters the vermin or fox stage, thereafter.
The worst of all and generally all World Top Politicians fall into this including President Biden.
My mother even went past this fox stage until 90s and luckily she passed away a decade before Coronavirus.
This I called the Bats Stage where one precariously hanging on to the failing heart or lung on a ventilator.
My advice for one is the kick the bucket well before entering this stage, since in Buddhist Samsara Cycle, the death is the beginning of another cycle but may not be human but lower down in the animal Kingdom.
Lot of our politicians end up there whatever the beneficial Karma, they try to acquire, (wearing the mantle of the head of state or Prime Minister post), or try to achieve by going from one papal tree to another.
Regards to the Buddhist monks of Ceylon, who literally over indulge in TV Banana Bana or sermens, most of them become TV stars in their next life usually in Bollywood and not in Hollywood due to the lack of their competence to put Dhamma to the Western audience crisp and clear in English.
One should not apply this to married life and one is either in dog stage or donkey stage eternally.
This piece will exit me from the Internet.
I am in Bird Stage anyway and watching Internet is boring now that Biden is up there, boring to say the least to see him hugging to a dog.
He should enter the donkey stage where he was for 45 years and was very comfortable.

Happy Mind and Solitude
The complete Faith in the system one believes,
An absolute Mindful Focus on the task at hand,
The Shame of discovery of shady deeds
The Fear of doing the wrong deeds
No Greed at all for any gain,
No trace of Hate or envy,
The balance and Equanimity of the mind culture,
Tranquility,
Lightness.
Malleability,
The Quality of Performance,
The Steadfast Control of a given circumstance,
An Upright Mind (Rectitude) are the most beautiful accompaniment of Happy State or Solitude.
Then one need not have to isolate oneself in a meditative stance.
The Meditative Trance makes one to be born in a happy state of existence but without total realization.
The Insight or Vision comes from the understanding of the Truth of the Three States of Flux.
Anitta
Dukka
Anatta or NO Soul entity.
The Fourth and the most important is the Realization or Understanding of the State of Flux of all Conditional Things.

Beautiful Factors of the Mind Base
This is coming from Abhidhamma.
Hold fast and digest.
Abhidhamma is an exegesis and classic academic exercise.
It loves classification in duality but lacks practical application.
So I would simplify the factors.
Before that I will highlight the most important factor.
It is called thatramanjjhattata.
This Pali word has no synonym but the closest is equanimity.
But it has three features of impartiality, detachment and balance of mind and its accompaniments.
These three factors makes the mind uniformly happy and peaceful which all politicians of all shades lack and inculcate the same feeling of madness on the livid followers.
The beautiful mind is well balanced and devoid of prejudices.
The opposite is the recently concluded American election reporting by CNN and Fox News.
That is the nearest of the barbaric instinct of mankind presenting as lovely and favourable but quiet the opposite of reality but brings hate, disrespect and unhappiness.
1. Balanced peaceful mind is beautiful.
2. Trust and Faith in reality (politicians are vulgar) is another beautiful expression of mind.
3. Presence of mind or attention to task at the moment is a beautiful mind.
4. Fear of doing wrong
5. Absence of greed
6. Absence of hate
7. Balanced mind described above
8. Tranquility
9. Lightness
10. Muduta or the malleability
11. Wieldiness or firmness of the mind
12. Quality and proficient action of mind
13. Rectitude or the uprightness of the mind
These are all shades of beautiful states of mind that need constant attention and cultivation.
One cannot achieve this by only meditation but by constant attention to vagaries of the mind and bringing it into focus, the reality at the present moment, not before, not in the future but now now of the present now we only have to live with.
This Earth is Precious
All American including immigrants should read this.
This land America belonged to Red Indians and where are they now?
No different to Aboregenes in White Australia?
White man including church men are hypocrites and wherever they land they leave a trace of wanton destruction.
He (now the yellow man of China) is the major contributor to the sixth extinction which we are currently marching and embracing aggressively.
In 1984 the Great White Chief in Washington made an offer for a large area of Indian Land and promised a Reservation for the Red Indian people.
Chief Seattle's reply reproduced here in full is a classic in American history.
It is described as the most beautiful and profound statement on the environment ever made.
The Paris accord becomes a bogus record and would pale into insignificance by many a mile.
Instead of signing it, President Biden should have sent a few phrases of this statement to the European Commission.
Whatbthe white man has done globally is irrepairable and with global warming in its peak, the rhetoric and grand speeches have no value but real action on the ground needs to be done and the world have to make sure China fall in line with principles and prevent it becoming the global enemy number one.
By the way, with virus as a gift we have to pay through our noses for the wanton destruction, not only in China but wherever it undertakes globally expansion of its influence.
President Biden should not let China a Scot Free Ride.
TEXT
How can you buy or sell sky, the warmth of the land?
This idea is strange to us.
If we do not own the freshness of the air and sparkle of the water how can you buy them?
ALL SACRED
Every part of the earth is sacred to my people.
Every shining pine needle, every sandy show, every mist in the dark woods, every clearing and the humming insect is holy in the memory and experience of my people. The sap which courses through the trees carries the memories of the Red Man.
The white man's dead forget the country of their birth when they go to walk among the stars.
Our dead never forget this beautiful earth, for it is the mother of the Red Man.
We are part of the earth and it is part of us.
The perfumed flowers are our sisters and the deer, the horse, the great eagle, these are our brothers.
The rocky crests, juices of the meadows, the body heat of the pony and man --- all belong to the same family.
NOT EASY
So when the Great Chief in Washington sends words that he wishes to buy our land, he asks much of us.
The Great Chief sends word he will reserve us a place so that we can live comfortably to ourselves.
He will be our father and we will be his children.
So we will consider your offer to buy our land.
But it will not be easy.
For this land is sacred to us.
This shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is just not water but the blood of our ancestors.
If we sell you land, you must remember that it is sacred and you must teach your children that it is sacred and each ghostly reflection in the clear water of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people.
The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father.
KINDNESS
The rivers are our brothers, they quench our thirst.
The rivers carry our canoes and feed our children. If you sell you our land you must remember and teach your children that the rivers are our brothers and yours and you must henceforth give the rivers the kindness you give your brother.
We know that the white man does not understand our ways.
One portion of land is same to him as the next, for he is stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs.
The earth is not his brother but his enemy and when he has conquered it he moves on to the next.
He leaves his father's grave behind and he does not care.
He kidnaps the earth from his children and he does not care.
His father's grave and children's birthright are forgotten.
He treats his mother the earth and his brother the sky as things to be bought, plundered, sold like sheep or bright heads.
His appetite will devour the earth and leave behind only a desert.
I do not know.
Our ways are different from your ways.
The sight of your cities pain the eyes of the Red Man.
Perhaps, it is because the Red Man is a savage and does not understand.
There is no quiet place in the white man's cities.
No place to hear unfurling of leaves in the spring or the rustle of an insect wing.
But perhaps, it is because I am a savage and do not understand.
The clatter only seems to insult the ears.
And what there to life if a man cannot hear the lonely cry of the whippoorwill or the argument of the frogs round the pond at night?
I am Red Man and I do not understand.
Indians prefer the soft sound of the wind darting over the face of a pond and the smell of the wind itself, cleaned by the midday rain or scented with pinon pine.
PRECIOUS
The air is precious to Red Man, for all things share the same breath---the beast, the tree, the man, they all share the same breath.
The white man does not seem to notice the air he breathes.
Like a man dying for many days, he is numb to the stench.
But if we sell you our land, you must remember that the air is precious to us, that air shares it's spirit with all the life it supports.
The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also received his last breath.
And if we sell our land you must keep it apart sacred as a place where even the white man is sweetened by the meadow's flowers.
ONE CONDITION
So we will consider your offer to buy our land.
If we decide to accept I will make one condition.
The white man must treat the beasts of this land as his brothers.
I am a savage and I do not understand any other way.
I have seen thousand rotting buffaloes on the prairies left by the white man (big question who is the savage, if not the white man as shown in America today) who shot them from a passing train.
I am a savage I do not understand how the smoking iron horse can be more important than the buffalo we kill to stay alive.
What is man without beasts?
If all beasts were gone, man would die of great loneliness of spirit.
For whatever happens to the beasts soon happens to man.
All things are considered.
THE ASHES
You must teach your children the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfahers.
So they will respect the land, tell the children the land is rich with lives of your kin.
Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the earth is our mother.
Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth.
If men spit upon the earth they spit upon themselves.
This we know.
The earth does not belong to man.
Man belongs to the earth.
This we know.
All things are connected like the blood which unites one family.
All things are connected.
Whatever befalls the earth befalls on sons of the earth.
Man did not weave the web of life (neither the god did); he is merely a strand in it.
Whatever, he does to the web, does to himself.
Even the white man's God who walks and talks with him as a friend to friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny.
We may be brothers afterall.
We shall see.
One thing we know which the white man may one day discover--- our God is the same god.
You may think now that you may own Him by your wish, but to own our land cannot.
He is the god of the man and His commission is equal to the Red Man and the white.
The earth is precious to Him and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator.
The whites too shall pass sooner than of other tribes.
The Coronavirus is the kill all solution to the white man's problems.
Contaminate your bed and one night you suffocate in your own waste.
But in your perishing you will shine brightly, fired by the strength of the God who brought you to this land and for some special purpose save your dominion over this land and over the Red Man.
That destiny is mystery to us, for we do not understand, when the buffaloes are slaughtered and wild horses are tamed, the secret corners of the forest heavy with scent of men and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires.
Where is the thickest. GONE.
Where is the eagle. GONE.
The end of living and beginning of survival.

Who is a Doctor and who can hold the Title Dr.?
Who is a Doctor and who can hold the Title Dr.?
This is a reproduction from New York Times
Being myself a Medical Person D.P.T.O (Do not Practice and Teach
Only) who can use this two letters and the dot for many reasons, avoid
using it, doctor part in my life for the last 10 years and it has made
my life very easy and simple.
In fact on of my neighbors asked me are you really a doctor to
which I smiled and did not give an answer, making him more confused.
Most of the guys/girls who know me come for second opinion, I am more than willing to oblige.
But free of charge and they do get better with simple remedies.
I have few emergency tablets in my purse always for such and eventuality, just in case.
I totally agree with this gentleman and I am more than grateful to
him for bringing to notice what ever the PhD one holds if it is not
relevant to the (if it is not germane to the holder’s primary current
occupation) post currently holding it should not be used as a label of
distinction.
After all the PhD may be 30 years old and disproved by at least
three times over that period of time if it was a good one to tag one’s
own thesis.
I am in fact currently finishing a book (which actually was a 10
year research work ) and I have decided not to put that for PhD
referral or title and would share it with the general public.
If somebody gives a PhD posthumously for this creative work , the
funeral director can put a single copy in my coffin before cremation so
that it goes to heaven or hell with me.
Who’s a Dr.?
Our continued use of courtesy titles — increasingly rare
in the news media — prompts many questions. Rules on the use of “Dr.” in
particular can lead to confusion, for readers and unfortunately
sometimes for our writers. Here’s our style book entry:
Dr. should be used in all references for physicians and dentists whose
practice is their primary current occupation, or who work in a closely
related field, like medical writing, research or pharmaceutical
manufacturing: Dr. Alex E. Baranek; Dr. Baranek; the doctor. (Those who
practice only incidentally, or not at all, should be called Mr., Ms.,
Miss or Mrs.)
Anyone else with an earned doctorate, like a Ph.D. degree, may
request the title, but only if it is germane to the holder’s primary
current occupation (academic, for example, or laboratory research).
For a Ph.D., the title should appear only in second and later references. The holder of a Ph.D. or equivalent degree may also choose not to use the title.
Do not use the title for someone whose doctorate is honorary.
For a Ph.D., the title should appear only in second and later references. The holder of a Ph.D. or equivalent degree may also choose not to use the title.

Demise of Prof. Senaka Bible is a conspiracy
Demise of Prof. Senaka Bible is a conspiracy
This is a reproduction and I tend to believe the circumstances.
The story then was the poison was put in wine by an air hostess and there was inadvertent delay in seeking medical aid.
The same company conduct an annual oration in his name (good old American Methodology, similar to Area 51).
He was
my teacher and he is probably reborn in a another alien planet and I
believe aliens have advised him not to visit this planet again.
Professor Bibile died in 1977 at Guyana, under mysterious circumstances.
The
section regarding his death is being consistently removed from
Wikipedia by an unknown entity, each time someone updates it.
It is a well known 'secret' that Dr Bibile was murdered by inducing
cardiac arrest using a drug(s) that has been available, even before
second world war.
One of his colleagues were involved in the murder to ensure that he would not recover from the 'heart attack' by not taking prompt action as well as taking the wrong cause of action as well as a delayed cause of action to recover him.
As a matter of fact, this doctor
colleague of doctor Bibile from UNO, asked Mrs Bibile for her
forgiveness for letting him die that way, implying that he was simply a
tool for corrupted multinational drug companies, in which she replied,
"If you can bring him back, then I will forgive you".
Known
multinational pharmaceutical companies were involved in Professor Bibile's
murder.
The truth will come out one day as it happens all the time.

No Dog for Christmas
No Dog for Christmas
I should rephrase it
no “Puppy as a gift” for Christmas.
If you really love
puppies please download Puppy Linux;
The creator of this
Linux distribution is a real dog lover.
Not only that Puppy
Linux is Puppy size (one need to have some understanding about Linux, though)
but loaded with utilities.
I can have a list of
reasons of more than 20 but on top are two real life stories.
This happened more
than 30 years in the United Kingdom.
I was heavily
involved with Neonatal Paediatric care then.
I was on
weekend off
and listening to some music (Terry Vogan was my favourite Irish
announcer) and radio (not Terry) announced the tragic death of a baby
few days old (the day the happy family brought the baby home), mauled
to death by the owners pet dog.
The police came an
shot the dog but the baby did not survive.
The bottom line is
the dogs can be extremely jealous of a new comer, including babies.
This happened about
10 days before Christmas and that was the only Christmas that I could
not blend with the Christmas spirit.
All throughout the festive season the message was relayed "No Puppy as a pet, if one cannot care for".
Underline theme was that baby care is full time job and dog care is no different.
The bone of
contention here is, the doctor/s could have visited the house and made
some investigations of the suitability of the house for a newborn
baby with an adult dog.
The second incident
was, one of my old (80 plus) professors forearm was torn to pieces and
needed over 40 stitches.
He was terrified and
the dog, his own, was not killed but transferred to a suitable foster
home.
He was living alone
and we never investigated the reason for the attack.
So my
recommendation;
One has to
be 40 to 45
years (does not matter one is married or not) old, to properly care for
dog who lives till the owner is 60 plus and showing all the signs of old
age disabilities.
This the crisis
period in life, the children are teens and won't listen to you.
The dog is an
outlet to divert ones attention from growing but rebellious kids.
The paradox is the
children also use the dog as a “Punching Bag” to let their
frustration out.
For a single man or
women (the success or failure in career is immaterial) it is good
companion.
To brag about the
dog (if successful in career) not the career in office.
The dog lives 15 to
20 years and for a single man /woman walking the dog (for the last 15
years of one's life) is a good antidote for intermittent exogenous
depression (not for the endogenous depression,one needs proper
treatment).
Besides, the dog ages
fast and it is a preview of ones old age chronic illnesses, including
arthritis, cataract, diabetes, obesity, gout and many more.
Mind you dog care is
more expensive than medical care in USA/UK and France.
Best advice is not have a dog at all if YOU do not have Money and Time!
Please do not be enticed by the Christmas films involving dogs but enjoy the film instead.
Punchlines, Punch Bags (Boxing Bags). Punch Balls, Kick Bags and Kickbacks with Punch and Judy
Election is all over and every conceivable lie had being utilized for gains.
It is miracle that I survived without hearing loss since the decibel range was higher than the pitch I was used to.
Sometimes I think it is a blessing to be either deaf or blind or both.
Since I am not either this is to revive Punch and Judy not in his style but in boxing style.
It is strange to note that Punch and Judy characters never used Boxer the kids friendly dog nor the the real boxing characters like Cassius Clay (Mohammed Ali), probably fearing American backlash.
I am writing this not expecting any kickbacks from any living soul or any British soul sent to hell by Punch but I have to use English for the strength of the Punch but in boxing style.
I am not even light weight and not even super flyweight to have the physical (I was super bantamweight when I was abroad and having being here for over 5 years gone below the fly weight category without even having a crash course in dieting) presence felt in the ring.
I have to use the English punchlines (send our Buddhist MPs including monks to heaven – not to hell like in UK for them to evoke blessing for the millions of voters who are practically missing a meal-according to health Ministry statistics; they never starve; they actually follow the Buddhist monks principle of eating once a day to go to heaven since Ceylon is not the heaven or paradise that it was known to be) instead for posterity.
The boxing categories including light weight was used by me to address the issue I have with the Microsoft / Open Office Office Package/s which is /are always super heavyweight and tax my computer's limited resources including RAM.
Since I use Linux for my work I do many things (unlike Microsoft Windows) once at the same time (watching Football World Cup-not cricket now- do a distribution download while I do some pep writings like this) and the speed is a factor I rely for efficiency.
I use Abiword Light sometime which is portable too.
I have extended this to my Linux100 writing elsewhere in the Google’s blogspot- just type asoka and paraox- you are instantly there and I want the Linux Developers to produce Light Weight (700 MiB. Middle Weight is 1700 MiB and anything above is Heavy Weight (especially the commercial versions that tax resources even at boot time) and sometimes useless to say the least.
Just to take some respite from somewhat taxing job (100 is a big issue at my age, even though I have already 200 distributions in my USB hard disc) of testing and writing reviews for the wider web users.
I take life at an easy pace now!
To begin with my Punch Code (in computer terminology) we must have a nurse and a doctor appointed to the parliament.
The
should weigh all new MPs (do not do that with the old foxes they are
too heavy that the spring of the balance will break without any spring
of surprises) now and every three months over the next 6 years and send
that data to the Central Bank / World Bank and the WHO (Sinhalen whoooo)
as real data.
They must be categorized according to the weight class of the boxers and see how they progress from flyweight to super heavyweight both in weight and money in no time.
Real progress of the country.
My argument for this is that our parliament truly represents the wishes of the population in real terms and numbers.
It truly feel the pulse of the people and rule of the law but not the rulers image.
If we have donkeys in this country surely they should be represented there.
Then we must have an annual contest in front of the Diyawana Oya and get Indian actors to come and face them weight by weight.
Our voters can be used as the Punch Bags or Boxing Bag (it is done almost everyday if you look at the government TV Channel).
It is worth while that they must send a random sample of weight from school leavers for comparison.
But I think that is a waste since our Central Bank has the knack of manipulating any real data into abstruse elements for it to be presented at the Budget at any time of the day or night or if necessary for IMF’s consumption.
But my real punch line is not for the new MPs.
It is for the Ministers who were newly appointed.
It looks as if they are used as the Punch Bags especially the Foreign Minister.
I do not wish who uses them as the Punch Bags.
It is a top secret except for one who is always vociferous in Sinhala for the cameras and destroy anything foreign except the oil he wears on his head.
If seems that boxers use kick balls and kick bags.
I like both of them (kick bag and kick ball) and in football style I can kick them in their vestiges!
