What Good Are Mosquitoes?

 

What Good Are Mosquitoes?
I want to add one more fact here.
They clean up our cesspits with unwanted bacteria.
Otherwise we will fill the pit in no time.
I believe there saliva (larvae) can digest bacteria (probably a good biological antibiotic).
I am one who believe this Dengue phobia is a manifestation of impotent local governments (better term is Local elected Mafiosi) who wants the poor voter to own the responsibility.
I always believe and will continue to believe they can never be wiped out but controlled to manageable level.
 

Below is a reproduction.
 

Their biological role may be many including evolution (transfer of transposons) of species.


Mosquito larvae are nutrient-rich snacks for hungry fish and other aquatic wildlife.

There isn't much love lost between people and mosquitoes. At the very least, these bloodthirsty insects are major annoyances, biting us with a persistence that can be maddening. If insects can be credited with evil intent, mosquitoes seem determined to wipe the human race out. As carriers of deadly diseases, mosquitoes are the deadliest insect on Earth. Each year, millions of people die from malaria, dengue fever, and yellow fever after being bitten by a disease-carrying mosquito. Mosquitoes also carry diseases that pose serious threats to livestock and pets.

With all these strikes against them, it's hard to imagine that mosquitoes fulfill any useful purpose. We forget that mosquitoes populated this planet long before man; the oldest mosquito fossils date back some 200 million years, to the Cretaceous period. Clearly, mosquitoes fill an important ecological niche. So what good are mosquitoes?
 

Mosquitoes Are Food for Wildlife

Mosquito larvae are aquatic insects, and as such, play an important role in the aquatic food chain.

How Does Color Affect How You Feel?

According to Dr. Gilbert Waldbauer in The Handy Bug Answer Book, "mosquito larvae are filter feeders that strain tiny organic particles such as unicellular algae from the water and convert them to the tissues of their own bodies, which are, in turn, eaten by fish." Mosquito larvae are, in essence, nutrient-packed snacks for fish and other aquatic animals.

Their role on the bottom of the food chain doesn't end at the larval stage, of course. 

As adults, mosquitoes serve as equally nutritious meals for birds, bats, and spiders.

As much as we loathe them, mosquitoes represent a considerable biomass of food for wildlife on the lower rungs of the food chain. 

Their extinction, were it even achievable, would have an enormous adverse affect on the entire ecosystem.

Guppy Disease

Guppy Disease
Guppy fish used to be my favorite but now my interest is water plants especially water lilies.
But one cannot have a pond without fish.
The mosquitoes would take over in no time.
Guppy fish is the only solution.
But over time the fish lose their bright colors and become the wild type.

The wild type is resistant to disease.
 
Just to introduce some colors I bought a batch of bright colored guppies.
Knowing very well they are incubating guppy disease I introduced them to the stock tank.
I added few of my wild guppy to interbreed.
In no time one by one all the guppies started dying
Not other fish types.
It was evident that the guppy disease was the cause.
I believe it is a virus disease and over time they become resistant.
But unfortunately my fish in the main outdoor tank started dying.
I made sure there was no contact or contamination.
I was puzzled and worried the fish food was the cause.
I need to work on this.
The vendors treat these disease fish before selling.
Within 24 hours they show the signs of disease and start dying.
If you buy a new stock do not introduce them to your main tank.
Observe them in a hospital tank for at least a week.
Treat them if necessary and introduce only the healthy ones.
Ideally the next generation of young fish.
If they are healthy they breed and breed fast.
You have a healthy batch then.
I now think even contaminated fish food carry disease if not guppy disease (viral) but bacterial disease.
Fish do not have a well developed immune system and succumb to diseases especially bacterial.
So keeping the tanks in good healthy condition is a priority.
Every time one introduces new fish this risk is increased or multiplied.



History of Linux

History of Linux
Reproduction

1991:

The Linux kernel is publicly announced on 25 August by the 21-year-old Finnish student Linus Benedict Torvalds.

1992:

The Linux kernel is relicensed under the GNU GPL. The first Linux distributions are created.
   
1993:
Over 100 developers work on the Linux kernel. With their assistance the kernel is adapted to the GNU environment, which creates a large spectrum of application types for Linux. The oldest currently (as of 2015) existing Linux distribution,

Slackware, is released for the first time. Later in the same year, the Debian project is established. Today it is the largest community distribution.
   
1994:
Torvalds judges all components of the kernel to be fully matured: he releases version 1.0 of Linux. The XFree86 project contributes a graphical user interface (GUI).
Commercial Linux distribution makers Red Hat and SUSE publish version 1.0 of their Linux distributions.
   
1995:
Linux is ported to the DEC Alpha and to the Sun SPARC. Over the following years it is ported to an ever greater number of platforms.
   
1996:
Version 2.0 of the Linux kernel is released. The kernel can now serve several processors at the same time using symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), and thereby becomes a serious alternative for many companies.
   
1998:
Many major companies such as IBM, Compaq and Oracle announce their support for Linux.
The Cathedral and the Bazaar is first published as an essay (later as a book), resulting in Netscape publicly releasing the source code to its Netscape Communicator web browser suite.
Netscape's actions and crediting of the essay brings Linux's open source development model to the attention of the popular technical press.

In addition a group of programmers begins developing the graphical user interface KDE.
   
1999:
A group of developers begin work on the graphical environment GNOME, destined to become a free replacement for KDE, which at the time, depends on the, then proprietary, Qt toolkit.
During the year IBM announces an extensive project for the support of Linux.
   
2000:
Dell announces that it is now the No. 2 provider of Linux-based systems worldwide and the first major manufacturer to offer Linux across its full product line.

2002:
The media reports that "Microsoft killed Dell Linux"
   
2004:
The XFree86 team splits up and joins with the existing X standards body to form the X.Org Foundation, which results in a substantially faster development of the X server for Linux.
   
2005:
The project openSUSE begins a free distribution from Novell's community.
Also the project OpenOffice.org introduces version 2.0 that then started supporting OASIS Open Document standards.
   
2006:
Oracle releases its own distribution of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Novell and Microsoft announce cooperation for a better interoperability and mutual patent protection.
   
2007:
Dell starts distributing laptops with Ubuntu pre-installed on them.
   
2009:
RedHat's market capitalization equals Sun's, interpreted as a symbolic moment for the "Linux-based economy".
   
2011:
Version 3.0 of the Linux kernel is released.
   
2012:
The aggregate Linux Server market revenue exceeds that of the rest of the Unix market.
   
2013:
Google's Linux-based Android claims 75% of the smartphone market share, in terms of the number of phones shipped.
   
2014:
Ubuntu claims 22,000,000 users.
   
2015:

Version 4.0 of the Linux kernel is released.

Universal Think Tank - A concept in Evolution

This piece is in evolution

Universal Think Tank - A Concept in Evolution

Copyright is mine and it is free for those guys/girls who use Linux PC as a daily driver.

This piece is done due to shear necessity with impending nuclear catastrophe.

10% is one of my dream flash and 90% is my own creation.

This done to add a chapter to my book on "Uncertainty Principle".

This done with no intention to violate "Theravada Buddhism in practice". 

Both Mahayana Buddhism and Vajrayana traditions are excluded. 
 
I think Tibetans (no animosity at all) are an Alien Species according to Madam Helena Blavatsky and nobody can understand their intended religious goal.
 
500 individuals are selected for the concept. 
In my opinion there is a paucity of intelligent individuals currently in the world.
They are selected 100 each from
Iran
China or North Korea
Russia 
United State
Brussels 
 
Ceylon is excluded so that the NPP/JVP can establish a small Country Without Religion or Niragamikayange Lokaya.
 
India is not included, so that it can use its resources to alleviate poverty.
 
United Kingdom, France, Germany are excluded since they all, were involved in initiating two World Wars in our history and they are itching for the Third World War using proxies in the Middle East.

ChatGPT should be used to select 500 dying soldiers in combat.
It also has to design 1000 Artificial Ventilators to keep dying soldiers in suspended state.
One must remember dead leaders were saved in frozen state to be revived as and when humanity discovers the correct methodology.
If Jesus can rise from the dead why not other humans. 
It was thought as the bounden duty of humanity to find a deathless state.

500 ventilators in reserve and 500 running state.

They have to start this project almost immediately.

Already nearly five hundred (500) are dead in the Middle East.

I must say, I am not going to volunteer and I have no wish to kick the bucket until next Olympics in Australia is over.
 

Category I

Before incarcerating these 500 individuals selected in Complete Meditation Practice,

Buddhist concepts of

Metta or Loving Kindness against Hate

Karuna or Kindness against Violence

Muditha or Sympathetic Joy against paranoia

Upekka  or Equanimity

should be taught in correct spirit.

There life span is only 100 years.

The idea is anybody who lives over 100 years would not understand Uncertainty Principle as a Viable Concept. 

Complete bio-data should be collected of the individuals participating.

If any of them attain Sovan, the first stage of enlightenment or emancipation, during their meditative state, he or she should be removed from the cohort and one from the category II should be promoted to maintain 500 Souls in Meditative Practice.

Status quo should be maintained diligently.

Category II

This is the job of ChatGPT.

The number in this category is unlimited.

There is no age limit but under 100 is preferred.

Moment one of the guys or girls from category I exits, one should be selected immediately using random selection criteria.

The presumption is a real Sovan guy or girl would not lie to ChatGPT. The claim of attaining Sovan Status should be taken on face value.

Category III

This again is left to ChatGPT decide.

ChatGPT should design a form for individuals to enter this protocol at random.

Full bio-data should be collected of all the individuals to match with those  who really have attained Sovanhood in category I.

Category IV

Many more countries were left out in the above categorization.

Since I believe in democracy each country should be given an option.

Opting out should be allowed.

No coercion is implied.

Any country that opt to participate should sent two candidates to form an Assembly.

During Iran-Israel war we discovered that UNO totally failed in its duty.

One candidate to represent the country.

The other should be a lawyer versed in International Law. 

His job is to help the representative draft the relevant legal documents for open discussion.

No close door discussions allowed.

They should review every law in existence and propose amendments if desired. 

They should formulate 10 binding laws and 10 nonbinding laws.

In my opinion we have too many laws in practice.

Most of them are there to safeguard the offenders and criminals.

Lucid Interval

 Lucid Interval

Theoretically Lucid Interval is the moment when a departing individual sees Flash Light of the Next Life. This moment is brief and if one sees a bright next life the departure from this life is not traumatic but smooth. 

There is no hindering to the new beginning.
But the problem is when one sees a very bad opening on the other side. These are the very guys and girls who latch onto the ventilator and not let go.
Close with one of my own experience in New Zealand. This guy had nasty cancer which was missed by three consultants over a period of six months. The moment I saw him I knew this guy is desperately Ill and may suffering from a serious underlying illness. 
Within half an hour with an X-ray I confirmed the diagnosis. I gently broke the bad news and said he can see me at anytime he needs and made arrangements for him to go home and to attend to his last rights. He was 45 and had grandchildren. 
He was a seaman and he lived for another six months. 
The day he died I made him a Buddhist for just a moment.
I told him to hold my hand and relax. 
I am going to make you a Buddhist covert, I told him. Just concentrate and take the fear away from your mind. You can go into the next life effortlessly.
That is going to be pretty nice.
My internal conviction was making him believe in Buddhism itself was enough for him to have a smooth transition.
In a moment he let go my hand and he was gone.
I instantly felt he was in a good place.
I did not want to know where.
That is his Samsara and I have no control.
This is why I wish not possess, the ability see neither past not present.
I want to live in this presentation moment.
It is called "Moment Meditation" and this phrase is my invention.



British Parliament is Waking Up to GAZA Genocide

Jeremy Corbyn's Bill to Investigate British Complicity in GAZA bombing is scheduled for second hearing in July 4th, 2025.
July 4th is the Independence Day of America on which date the American Colony in 1776, severed it relationship with British Empire.
249 years ago.

Yes, to Chocolates but not to Cola is my Motto

Yes to Chocolates but not to Cola is my Motto

This is the message that I should convey to the young and the old.

First, with some personal experiences of us as young parents in UK and the encounter we had with Coca Cola. My children were addicted to Cola and my British colleague who opened my eyes to the addiction of my kids to the derivative of cocaine, cola drink possesses. Itconstitutes as anatural permitted ingredient. That made me to do some search on the cola leaf. Even, the tiny bit of coca extract in the syrup has cocaine and it is continued to be an ingredient in the syrup in order to protect the trade name "Coca Cola" for a long time so that the company became a house hold name in Americas. Things have changed significantly but during the promotional campaigns,       

I have reason to believe the promoters increase the concentration of the syrup so that some would get addicted to the brand name. That much is enough for Cola and the Americanism and their market principles.

Currently, Bolivians are asking for free franchise of cocaine as a national industry.

Now to the cocoa nut.

Whenever, I get a new job abroad and whenever, I have a friendly discussion over the dinner table, I always raise the issue that the Westerners have   a sweet tooth and eating chocolates is bad for two reasons.

One is because of the sugar content and the other my own Ceylonese secret invention of cocoa.  It is my April fool, long before the April fool's day.

I tell them in a very scientific way, that we suck the seeds of cocoa before drying them on sunlight.     The scientific secret is that the digestive enzymes in our saliva digest the outer coat in such a way to get the best quality cocoa to be produced in Ceylon for export.         

I do not think any cocoa trees left in our country. The cocoa powder is imported from Africa and I go on to say we have Infectious Hepatitis in Ceylon and it is risky to eat chocolates. 

I did a good thing before leaving Ceylon. One of my distant relatives, elderly brother had a few coco plants in his land. I needed a few cocoa plants for my roof top garden "orchid house". I use the coco plant to hang the orchids. Coco pant has a thick bark that is conduce for orchids. Besides cocoa plant encourages the fiery black ants that support my orchids. I encourage black ants since they demolish fiery red ants. Due to my negligence the big cocoa plant had an unnatural death and the the young one was not big enough to support my orchids. 

Dual disaster.

So I asked him for a few seeds. He told me he needs about 6 weeks to prepare the seeds. We met him in Kandy over a good lunch and big chat. I got the seeds but could not plant them. I handed them to a guy who used to help me and said I am leaving to Australia in three months and I need at least two plans in two plant pots, before I leave. I left within a month and did not have the plants.    In any case, I was to return home within three months.

My relative left to Canada 6 weeks after me and I hope the helper guy would plant a few of the cocoa plants in his plot of land.

Whenever they offer me chocolates I flatly refuse the offer reminding of them of hepatitis. This is the way, I take my turn for the rigmarole that I have to go through of all the vaccinations, chest X-rays and medical check ups which I have to undergo whenever, I get a new job abroad and before commencing work.

Little they suspect that it is a made up story and I go on to say that during coca cola campaigns, the company imports a special brand of essence from America that the Company Chairman himself prepares, in his private bath. I go onto say the essence is put in the tub and the chairman does the tempering with his feet, like in vine making and the real taste of coco cola is from the sweat of the his feet. I go on to say the sweat he shed for his company is phenomenal judging by the company's sale figures.

This is something, I probably got from Arthur Buchwald’s writings and a slight hint for my friends that there is some exaggeration and pun involved, in my scientific story. 

If they have had read him, they would have guessed the pun.

Arthur "Art" Buchwald

Arthur "Art"Buchwald (October 20, 1925 January 17, 2007) was an American humorist best known for his long running column in The Washington Post, which in turn was carried as a syndicated column in many other newspapers. His column focused on political satire and commentary. He received the Pulitzer Prize for Outstanding Commentary in 1982 and in 1986 was elected to the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.

So within a week I put them off of two of their favorite food items.

I have taken my revenge for the extra medical checks they have gone through myself and my family every time we go out. No wonder, I have not gone out for a long time.

For about three month I carry on this ploy religiously and in due course, I get caught eating chocolates somewhere in a supermarket or an open place.

YOU are a Cheat and I find YOU eat chocolates, surreptitiously.

I would say this is a special brand and it is hermetically   (I do not understand the meaning of the word) prepared or something to that effect so as,         “not to caught”.

Finally, I bare open, the truth when enough people start suspecting me. Then I buy them loads of chocolates for being good sport.

The chocolates and a sample of its virtues is given below.

Cholesterol, The Truth

Cholesterol, The Truth

If you had been cheated by American Drug companies, please read this real biochemistry.

Your body makes saturated fats and your body makes Cholesterol – about 2000 mg per day. In general, cholesterol that the average American absorbs from food amounts to about 100 mg per day. So, in theory, even reducing animal foods to zero will result in a mere 5% decrease in the total amount of cholesterol available to the blood and tissues. In practice, such a diet is likely to deprive the body of the substrates it needs to manufacture enough of this vital substance cholesterol.

Cholesterol, like saturated fats, stands unfairly accused.

It acts as a precursor to vital corticosteroid hormones that help us deal with stress and protect       the body against heart disease and cancer. It is a precursor to the sex hormones like androgen, testosterone, estrogen and progesterone. It is a precursor to vitamin D, a vital fat-soluble vitamin needed for healthy bones and nervous system, proper growth, mineral metabolism, muscle tone, insulin production, reproduction and immune system function. It is the precursor to bile salts, which are vital for digestion and assimilation of fats in the diet.

Recent research shows that cholesterol acts as an antioxidant. This is the likely explanation for the fact that cholesterol levels go up with age. As an antioxidant, cholesterol protects us against free radical damage that leads to heart disease and cancer. Cholesterol is the body's repair substance, manufactured in large amounts when the arteries are irritated or weak. Blaming heart disease on high serum cholesterol levels is like blaming firemen who have come to put out a fire and not the one for started the blaze.

Cholesterol is needed for proper function of serotonin receptors in the brain. Serotonin is the body's natural "Feel Good" chemical. This explains why low cholesterol levels have been linked to aggressive and violent behaviour, depression and suicidal tendencies.

Mother's milk is especially rich in cholesterol and contains a special enzyme that helps the baby utilize this nutrient. Babies and children need cholesterol rich foods throughout their growing years to ensure proper development of the brain and nervous system.

Reactions:

1. Cholesterol is a vital biochemical component

2. Body’s internal production far exceeds its dietary intake and independent of eating eggs.

3. Cholesterol is needed for proper function of serotonin receptors in the brain. Serotonin is the body's natural "Feel Good" chemical.

4. Its treatment with anti-cholesterol drugs causes Dementia which the American Heart Association and Drug Companies would like to hide.

5. Eating eggs is a healthy habit.

It is a class one protein in addition to supplementing vitamins.

6. Cholesterol lowering treatment causes confusion, domestic violence, suicide and even homicide.

7. Its a vital component in the brain.

8. Its secretion parallels cortisol, the vital stress hormone of the body. In other words it a secondary stress indicator and not a stress hormone.

9. The treatment lower cholesterol does not prolong life.

10.  Only Aspirin prolongs life in low dosage.

11. Treatment of hypertension does not prolong life but retards secondary organ damage (Heart Failure and Kidney Failure).

12. Human Growth Hormone is one that prolongs life. Unfortunately one cannot interfere with its production except regular and mild exercise.

13. Good sleep without pills is my best indicator of healthy life style. Have plenty of it but one can do that only in one’s retirement.

14. Meditation may be helpful but I have some caution about its impact on cholesterol metabolism.

Benefits of Meditation
There are many claims of benefit of meditation often poorly substantiated. Some of these benefit can be obtained without resort to meditation but simple change in life style.
Suppose a meditator changes his food habits drastically say to a vegetarian diet and practice meditation as a routine and finds that his blood cholesterol is lowered significantly, and then if he or she attributes it to the practice of meditation, there is a big flow in that argument.
One is not sure whether the change in diet did effect the blood cholesterol level or the practice of meditation or both did have independent or summation effect on the level of blood cholesterol. 

Unless one take a random sample and assess the partial correlation then only one can attribute combination or independent effects on a particular quantity tested.

All about Sugars

All about Sugars
  
This is a bit of knowledge from my gook Vegetarian Saga. 
The book is on editorial mode and correcting typos. 
I do not have secretary as when I was in the University.
 
American corn syrup is a liquid sweetener made from cornstarch, commonly used in the food industry. It is a staple in the United States, used in various applications like baking, candy making, and as an ingredient in beverages and processed foods. 
While often confused with high-fructose corn syrup, regular corn syrup primarily consists of glucose, whereas high-fructose corn syrup has a higher proportion of fructose. High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a modified form of corn syrup, where enzymes convert some of the glucose into fructose, making it sweeter.
 
In biology, sugars, also known as saccharides, are broadly classified into monosaccharides and disaccharides. Monosaccharides are the simplest forms of sugars, including glucose, fructose, and galactose. 
Disaccharides are formed when two monosaccharides bond together, examples being sucrose (glucose + fructose), lactose (glucose + galactose) and maltose (two glucose molecules).
Pentoses are monosaccharides (simple sugars) that contain five carbon atoms. 
Examples include ribose, deoxyribose, arabinose, and xylose. They are crucial components of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) and are involved in various metabolic pathways.          
In particular, ribose is the pentose sugar component of the nucleotides of RNA whereas deoxyribose is the sugar component of the nucleotides of DNA.
 
Brown sugar's benefits primarily stem from the molasses it contains, which offers a slightly richer flavor and can make baked goods more moist and chewy. Brown sugar is also good for digestion because it is made up of molasses which promotes a healthy digestive system and bowel movements. Furthermore, the fibre in brown sugar leads to lower absorption of sugar by the body, which helps you regulate blood sugar levels. 
 
White or refined sugar does contain residual chemicals from the refining process, although the main component is still sucrose. 
These chemicals are used to purify and bleach the sugar. 
Examples include sulfur dioxide, lime (calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide) and phosphoric acid. 
While the amounts are generally considered safe, some individuals may be sensitive to these chemicals.
Sulfur dioxids is used as a bleaching agent and preservative to prevent discoloration and microbial growth. Lime (calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide) is used for pH adjustment and to remove impurities. Phosphoric acid is used to clarify the sugar

Viability of Satellites in Space

 Viability of Satellites in Space

A satellite can last only 5 years in space.

Reasons
Damage due to Temperature extremes.
-160 to +120 C°
Radiation damage
Drop in orbital height
Software malfunction

Orbital Positioning Systems plus the launching System.

 
Launching Systems can handle about 100 to 120 (by Elon Musk).
 
Who is going to pay for them?
 
This scheme is INSANE by all my scientific analysis.

Skin Colour and Pigmentation

 Friday, August 16, 2019
Skin Colour and Pigmentation

I was trying to find an article on pigmentation on big Medical Texts and could not.

This was an extraction from a very old power point presentation.

I have destroyed my notes by conviction.

When we were medical students there were good articles on pigmentation, not now (? new policy).


I am much interested in Guppy and Zebra fish pigmentation not human.


Skin Colour

Skin colour is determined by two factors.

One is the amount of melanin formed in response to sun's radiation effects.

This amount of formation of melanin is determined by different  alleles and are poly-geneticaly inherited.

There is hardly any difference between whites and blacks in melanin formation.

The second is the packaging of that melanin in membrane bound packs.

White skin people lack the ability to form (melanasome melanisation) membrane bound packages efficiently.

Melanosomes are either degraded or dispersed in white skin.

It is a genetic deficiency and not a superior quality of white man.
 

White man is deficient and why and when this happened is currently unknown.

That is why they are prone to cancer and a very serious condition, the malignant melanoma.
They cannot sun bathe in reality.
This happened during their migration while dark skinned people retained that ability and were protected from cancer.

Additionally dark skin is resistant to weathering and old age.

Melanins

The are several varieties of melanins

Eumelanin
Dark brown melanin proper
Chemically an insoluble polymer of tyrosine
Phaeomelanin
Yellow or red skinheads
Chemically a polymer of tyrosine and cysteine, soluble in alkali solutions
The are several varieties of melanins
Eumelanin is present in skin, hair, pigment epithelium of the eye, in the meninges, in brain stem (substantia nigra) and adrenal medulla
All these organs are ectodermal in origin like the nervous system
Produced by the melanocytes and are packed membrane bound and are transmitted to surrounding keratinocytes.
Each melanocyte actively implants its granules into the body of the nearby cells.
One melanocyte supplies melanin to thirty-three keratinocytes according to signals from the keratinocytes.
In other words roughly 100 cells of the epidermis have three melanocytes.

Black Skins
In black skin the melanosomes which are larger than those of white skin remain free.

White Skins
In white skin the melanosomes are taken up by the autophagosomes and are degradaed.
They are dispersed lightly causing the social pathology.


Light absorption

Functions of Eumelanin is to bsorb ultraviolet and visible light and get oxidized in the process
It is a Free Radical sink, so prevent carcinogenesis.
Black skin ages better than whites
It is an Ion-exchange resin
Melanin is an electron acceptor and binds many drugs Chlorpromazine
Melanins are biologically very important but very little is understood
Their physiochemical properties are frustrating to the chemists
Much remains to be learned
Little fish called Zebra (also Guppy) is unraveling its mysteries
The pathology of melanin is largely a matter of increased or decreased pigmentation
Hypopigmentation
Hyperpigmentation

CoviD Fiasco-23-03-2021

 

 CoviD Fiasco-23-03-2021

Boris Johnson who is talking Big about Ukraine Covered Up Deaths of the Elderly in United kingdom. 

He can lie for any money he gets illegally.

Zelensky is the other International Crook. 

Only other Crook, I can remember was the Labour Union Leader. 

He is alive in his eighties, so I should not mention his name here. 

He transferred Labour Union Money to a foreign country, may be Brazil, before Margaret Thatcher could lay her hands.

Arthur Scargill is his name.

 Arthur Scargill (born 11 January 1938) is a British trade unionist who was President of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) from 1982 to 2002. 

He is best known for leading the 1984–1985 UK miners' strike, a major event in the history of the British labour movement.

Joining the NUM at the age of 19 in 1957, Scargill was one of its leading activists by the late 1960s. He led an unofficial strike in 1969, and played a key organising role during the strikes of 1972 and 1974, the latter of which played a part in the downfall of Edward Heath's Conservative government.

Thereafter Scargill led the NUM through the 1984–1985 miners' strike. 

It turned into a confrontation with the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher in which the miners' union was defeated. 

Initially a Young Communist League member, then a Labour Party member, Scargill is now deputy leader of the Socialist Labour Party (SLP), having founded the party in 1996 and served as its leader from the party's foundation until 2024

I stop registering for Labour Party in 1980s.

CoviD Fiasco-23-03-2021

As an academic I keep a record of scientific material.
 
That is my habit and I do not believe in digital material.
 
This has helped me in writing books.
Two books I have delayed writing are one on Mosquitoes and the other on Viruses.
 
There is no hurry.
 
I have five more years to go.
 
This is how I recorded the Covid Fiasco in point form.

1. Wuhan province in China in September 2019
Endemic becoming Epidemic.
Chinese denial of Bat to Human Transfer in the Wet Market.
 
2. Nearly 10,000 infected in China.
How many died is a Chinese Mystery.
Satellite Images confirming large number of deaths.
 
3. Chinese built a massive building covering the cemetery.
 
4. The guys involved in the burial were burned to death under another building that collapsed while building it.
The front line workers were decimated.
 
5. Delay in reporting until 31st of December 2019 (the mandatory deadline of WHO).
 
6. Brief announcement of that epidemic in January 2020.
This is when Americans and WHO go into long holiday. The delay was to wait until everybody is on holiday.
 
7. WHO delaying it reporting till March, 2020 as an International epidemic.

The ploy was for the Chinese to give 6 months of "Covering Time" to hide the factual data.
 
8. The WHO abrogated their bounden duty.
 
9. Between March, 2020 to June 2020 CDC had used Genetic Engineering to break down or Synthesize a New Viral Product.

Update On Corona Virus-Edited-2020

Updated Global Assessment of Corona Virus Pandemic

Chicken, Broiler Chicken in particular.

Chicken Flu

These three words and phrases are synonymous with Corona Virus for nearly 3 decades.

Currently it is pig or piscine flu.

Historically Piscine or Pig flu is relevant and that is why Muslims and Jews in Israel do not consume pork (pigs) but they eat all other varieties of meat available on this planet earth.

In Ceylon they even eat elephant meat.

Broiler Chicken Food Chain in my opinion, is central to the spread of the current epidemic and I have inadvertently missed that point.

Pigs and Chickens are part of the super spreader chain by way of Food Chain Transmission (F.C.T).

Only way to avoid transmission is to rear your own chicken or pigs in small scale and not on commercial scale.

WHO will never venture into these domains.

There are a few more points of interest.

CDC head is a cunning "Smooth Operator" and his only desire is to hang on to his post for life and that itself is a disaster ominous.

I call him the "Pass the Buck Man”, not the Olympic Batten Style,  and all the American Institutions are well greased and ingrained in this philosophy of passing the buck up or down (Donald Trump Impeachment headed by Nancy Pelosy is a classic example and she is very good exponent of this ploy).

Ultimately it gets to the Commander In Chief.

To the not so amiable Joe Biden.

He should get rid of of these smooth operators from the main stream, starting with CDC Head, if we are to turn the corner, in this pandemic, spreading relentlessly.

America unlike China has enough resources to bounce back in economy.

Rest of the world may sink including UK but not America by any stretch of imagination.

America's biggest problem is it’s open borders policy from Mexico to Latin America to India and China.

Biden is embroiled in this open borders strategy, not by his design but by Democratic party's long term desire to keep it's vote bank appeased and I agree with Trump's "America First Principle" for a particular period of time in American history, at least temporarily, to get rid of the budget deficit and keep  the economy under proper monitory control.

Corona Virus Pandemic should be turned into a stimulus, if they can close the borders on health grounds for at least three years to begin with. I think President Biden under pressure from the left is bending his back on first principles.

Do not listen to the vote bank but listen to the opponents. 
 
Every wrong move is a step towards Republican Victory.

Lot of guys and girls will give dead ropes including CDC Head, but I am sure President Biden will overcome those distractions and should not look for the next election for policy changes necessary, in this moment of time.

If he ignores the election (let the Republicans worry about it), I believe he can come back for a second term victorious with much more sustainable American Economy.

I think the Democratic opposition to President Putin will backfire, since President Putin is targeting the American consumer psychology long before the election and the price at the pump station will be very decisive. 
 
His attack, on oil, gas and the capitalist economy in general will bite hard on American consumers both Democratic and Republican.

The longer the war in Ukraine drags it is bad for the American consumer but a good time for the American War Machinery. 
 
President of Ukraine with open hand (begging hand) dragged Ukraine into American Orbit with no sign of a compromise once one is dug in to a protracted war. 

That is the plan of President Putin and he has many tricks under his sleeve.

President Biden’s foul mouth uttering or saying words like butcher and regime change have galvanized Russian opinion and that is all what President Putin wanted from America for his political success in the next round of election.

Besides, I believe war was a tactic to divert his failure of Control of Corona Virus in Russia. 

The death in the front line is better than dying of Corona Virus doing nothing at home drinking Vodka for boredom.

But the bigger danger is the fall of Russia politically is ultimate big gain for China. 

The Americans won’t be able to negotiate with China, let alone Russia who is an ally of China.

If America lets China to sneak in, it is going to be a Global Disaster unlike the Muslim and Afghan crisis filtering into India and its neighbors. 

China covertly supported Afghans to undermine America.

That ploy should be stymied now not later.

There are two other equally devastating results of the Corona Virus Pandemic.

1. Food Crisis.

2. Nutritional Crisis

3. The above two determine the total Death Rate.

4. Without High Protein Diet one cannot respond to the Vaccine or the Wild Infection.

5. That this Vaccine will solve the current problem is a fantasy created by Drug Companies.

An average American living on food stamp is a total disaster. 
Food stamp is for sustenance and not for total immune response or recovery. 
A total stimulus including Good Diet is mandatory.

We went through this in 1970s and currently we are on the verge of total disaster.

An average child is surviving on manioc.

Powered Milk is out of stock and we cannot produce enough fresh milk.
The fresh milk is expensive and the supply depends on good weather.

A sustained period of dry or drought will kill our cows or reduce productivity below 10% and it is not a viable industry, at a time when economic and food crisis are looming.

We are looking down the barrel and current government is taking advice from a
Gnana Manio (Mother with Vision), a Bogus Woman with image bloated sky high.

There are lot of Bogus Manios in this country.

Pani (honey), Nool (silk or thread), Death Traps (unless one pays the sooth healer a bloated sum) and Pooja Vattis (trays for offering flowers are bribes to the Gods) are the modus operandi operational at every doorstep in Ceylon.

I am doctor in full retirement who did almost kicked the bucket due to proactive Moderna Vaccine Jab (MVJ).

I am probably recovering from the Jab Related Myocarditis (J.R.M) and my life was touch and go for several months.

I do not fear to kick the bucket by the Wild Virus (but I hate to give the infection to a third party, not even to a cat or a dog) but I do fear death by the faulty Moderna Jab.

I was probably given a vaccine containing, 6-six times the required adjuvant  and with very little Corona Virus antigen in it.

My mental make is sharp at present and this is to  preempt any catastrophe to my higher centers in the coming months.

Google under no condition should  remove this piece or suppress it.

Visitors to this blog are less than 70 a day or 1500   a month, so it does not cause any alarm to the health agencies world wide.

My assessment are based on at least 40 years of continuous work except for six months, which I took a break to spend time with the family without any medical ha hoo. 

The six months break was children's request first and my volition on the second count.

I was never involved in politics except for a brief period to oust a corrupt regime, long time ago.

I resigned from G.M.O.A, since they failed to protect my rights in spite of my written request very early in my career. 
An appointment I deserved was given to a stooge. 
But I won my rights on my own legal representation.

After that, I resigned from government service never to join it again and I have a W.A.O.P number but I have not received any entitlements.

I am a Ceylonese and I have No DUAL Citizenship.

I have traveled from Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere alone, just within 24 hours on my own money to see the Sea Lions. 

In other Words, I have seen the World, on my own account.

For the last 20 years I did not register Under the S.L.M.C.

My degree is M.B.B.S (Ceylon).

I have postgraduate qualifications.

My writing here is as a lay person and should not be interpreted as a medical jargon or any valid  information for research work.

It is certainly not gossip or spinning yarns.

All my observation are from September 2019 onward.

Purely academic to begin with but little bit vocal. 
 
I think this may be my last, Corona Virus, blog piece, unless lot of sub-comments follow this piece at least to defend my stance politely.

Culprits of the Pandemic are only 3 or 4.

1. Mainland China and Wet Farms.

2. Singapore Airlines.
My gut feeling was Singapore Airlines was the Super Spreader.

3. WHO

4. Cover up agents paid by interested parties including Drug Companies.

5. Austria's sky resort dilemma added as a little spice.

But the main cause is under par airline safety protocols.

A) Theory of Lab escaped Virus of high probability.

B) Piscine Borne infection.

C) Delay in investigations for the cover up to take effect.

I have some outrageous suggestion like the mRNA is so tiny, a mosquito can harbour, it and carry it for months apart from infecting pigs.

It is an enterovirus by design that changed it's transmission mode to respiratory mode purely, by accident.

It is only 20 to 30 nanometers and probably cannot be killed by the current detergents.

It keeps on living or replicating given the suitable environment, using its ingenious methodology.

Let me take a different point of view.

This virus had traveled from North Pole to South Pole in less than a year.

No country in the world is free of its contamination, if not death  and that contamination will continue for another 20 years unless we Stop the Food Chain Transfer (F.C.T) and the free virus mobility on meat products.

It is my belief, that the  Control or Mitigation of the Food Chain Transfer will never happen.

It is very difficult to arrest since entry point to the food chain is numerous and uncontrollable. 
 
People will starve to death if we interfere with the food transfer chain. 
 
One ship trapped in Sues Canal recently is a case in point.

Economic consequences will outlast the 20 years (plausible prediction) of spread of the disease.

If this is a natural virus (most unlikely and a successful virus never wipes out its subjects) it's determination is to control the world population for the benefit or health of the planet.

In the event, if it is an alien design (for a very long period they would have been  masquerading as humans on this planet of ours, i.e; the inhabiting and invading alien beings) for them to get established (in that scenario it is a virus adopted by the aliens for their propagation and they are manipulating it's spread so that the immune aliens have an advantage in survival on this planet) surreptitiously, on this planet.

You can bear with me, I am not sparing any random thoughts.

1. Number one this virus had traveled with man and it's food chain.

That is why it spans the globe.

2. Singapore Airline was the pandemic breaker.

It is the only country with the lowest number of deaths and confirmed cases.

Why?

I do not believe their records and knowing it as the super spreader, at the beginning stage of the pandemic, it is cooking up its numbers to avoid future litigation by foreign civil agents, if not WHO.

This scenario can go bizarre, if the vaccination program causes more vulnerabilities including myocarditis.

Just like China, Singapore is not a fully fledged democracy but it's richness gives it a bit of a cushion and an international clout.

Mode of transfer are Ships and Mighty Long Haul Vehicles with wet foods produced in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea and Taipei.

My theory of mass movement of food products in the food chain helps to spread the disease holds true here
.

Traveling  and Shipments were banned for North Koreans and it has probably the lowest cases per capita, probably, lower than Singapore.

All of them are of Chinese descent and wet market entrepreneurs.

Can you see that the jigsaw puzzle is fitting in nicely.

The final piece is WHO who were bribed to delay reporting the pandemic till December 31, 2019 (WHO deadline for that year).

My Conspiracy Theory is right at heart.


Aiding and abetting is visible and obvious.

It is possible to Genomically Tag it’s Origin but my mosquito and piscine theories make this more difficult.

Mosquito transfer is very unlikely apart from hospital (India and Africa are good candidates) spread related to housefly, a viable but a plausible passive transfer of the candidate virus.

The human race is responsible for this and 30% of the failure is of the administration and the other 70% is the incorrigible humans.

We are in a mess and we all have to get out of this mess. 
It is a global problem and not a national problem anymore.

Individual countries and companies stocking up the vaccine is not the way forward. 
It is somewhat, blind expectation that the 70% vaccination will get US out of this problem.

A fanciful imagination.

Lot more efforts and much more vigorous actions have to be in place. 
There are lose ends in this article and I won't try to hide or whitewash.

It is for the young guys to look at this problem globally from all angles. 
They should  resist the temptation to depend only on health infrastructure.

Spend the resources only on hospitals, vaccination centers and rely on pharmacies to support their efforts, may bounce back both on economy and well-being of mankind.

I have my deep sympathy to the first responders but I am bit skeptical of the efficacy of the vaccines. 
 
Too, true to be good and one vaccine almost killed me.

The American (West) Doctrine of Air Superiority would win Any War has No Validity

This piece is in evolution.
I am not a militaryman but a scientific analyst.
Scott Ritter who is a military expert is agreeing with me.
There is another point of interest here which is that sanctions do not inhibit but energize new innervations.
With our Internal Conflict with LTTE (LTTE created by Indian RAW), there were sanctions imposed by the West on Ceylon.
Ukraine helped us when nobody was helping us. That is why my interest in that conflict.
Sanctions breeds innovative tactics.
Iran was sanctioned and they slowly but surely increased their capacity of ground to air salvos.
Americans believed in Air Superiority.
Already one or two Israel planes were downed and Air Industry including French Rafael crafts have no buyer in the future.
Iranians are not stupid but intelligent.
I have associted with Iranian students in my teaching career and they are above average.
 

YES, the American (West) Doctrine of Air Superiority would win Any War has No Validity.
It is an outdated principle.
 
1. First country to learn that lesson was Russia. 
That was after three years of war with Ukraine.
 
2. Second country learnt that lesson was India.

War with Pakistan where China mitigated air offence.
  
3. Third country that would learn that lesson would be Israel.
I think Israel is fast learning that fact.

In the current day of war Air Planes are soft targets.

Even a ChatGPT linked to a missile battery can take an air plane off a mission.

Russia has made a new doctrine (Listen to President Putin's recent speech, to his military hierarchy), that air superiority depends on the number of manned and unmanned Ariel Projectiles that the country possess, especially the super-subsonic missiles to which Ukraine has no answer.

Iran that does not have air power.
Iran heavily depends on ground to air missiles stored deeply underground.

They will systemically use them to deplete Israel's  surface to surface and surface to ground missiles in stages.
 
I think Israel has made a strategic blunder.
 
They cannot get enough supply of ground to surface missiles from the western sources.
They do not produce them in adequate numbers.

Only country, who is producing missiles in numbers and having a big store is Russia.
 
Even Yemeni  has enough in their store.

Israel cannot ask help from Russia since, Israelists covertly helped Ukraine with military hardware and drone technology.
 
That is again a strategic mistake.
 
Besides, Russia has Oreshnik before going for the nuclear option (arsenal).

There is no win-win situation in modern warfare.
 
Small countries thinking big is a disease.
We have this disease in Ceylon and we have already antagonized Pakistan by siding with India.

There is no country in this world which can raise the head above water and enter diplomacy. 

Ceylon used to be but not any more by having signed agreements with Modi in Public.
 
We must get rid of this NPP/JVP Combo to avoid war in our doorstep.

Non Alignment is dead now.

MAD or Mutually Assured Destruction is in Motion.

I need not say "Third World War" has begun!

I think I am ready to kick the bucket but what about the Young Souls who are making a big percentage in our population statistics?

Rebirth and Mind

 Rebirth and Mind 

Mind, Memory, Dreams and Consciousness are terms used to describe the working of the brain.       

None of these terms are inclusive nor exclusive in enlightening the understanding of the working of the brain. 

Brain is the most variable component of these elements, if this discussion is extended to the animal kingdom. 

I am going to exclude the brain and its physiology by default.

The reasons, I will briefly outline.

Brain can exist in a vegetative state with modern technological support as long as artificial ventilation is maintained. I have done this myself as an neonatal resident in UK.

One example is enough.

Obstetric Registrar delivered a baby by Cesarean Section. The baby’s heart had stopped a few minutes before. I was called in and I concurred, in fact, the heart had stopped.

I was in a dilemma.

If I do not resuscitate this baby, I will  fall into trouble for negligence with the superiors behind my back. 

This was a locum job not a permanent job.

I made an immediate decision to give intra-cardiac injection and got the attending nurses into full action gear. That included calling in the Senior Registrar for his approval before shoving in the needle to the baby’s heart. He said OK and the baby’s heart did start in a shutdown state. I did another stupid thing immediately afterwards. Shoved in an intra-arterial canula and pumped in saline to stabilize the blood pressure and open up the veins. Intra-arterial infusion was not in vogue, then, except at Oxford University. I used to call the Oxford Registrar for advice on clinical problems.

If I remember right she was a lady doctor.

After stabilizing the physiological state and opening an intravenous infusion, I transferred the baby to the ICU. This baby started fitting after six hours of resuscitation and for another six weeks. Everybody, including the parents were cursing me behind my back.

This was good on me.

I decided to leave UK for good.

I decided not to get involved in anymore of high tech Intensive Care Work.

Of course in later years, I was more comfortable in Pathology where decisions are made “after the fact” at postmortem. 

Even after postmortem only in about 60%, one can make reliable conclusion. The postmortem of this baby did not reveal new facts.         

In Ceylon this baby would have been declared dead without resuscitation. 

Not having technology is a blessing in disguise.

Now coming to my discussion, this baby’s brain was dead but not his heart. 

It was in a vegetative state without properly functioning brain. 

I followed my Buddhist instincts and fell apart with British colleagues. 

In my mind, I was not a God to decide the future for this baby’s life, in this life. 

I am not an arbitrator of Kamma in Evolution. 

I did what the physiology could support but could not intervene, in the evolution of the next life.

Like the “Near Death Experience” of cardiac arrest patients, if I could see into the next life my intervention could have been masterly inactivity.        

But, I have no discretion available according to the practice of Western Medicine except supporting life with artificial means.

The “Let Go” principle according to the nature of events unfolding is not something discussed in depth in the West.

I make following prepositions.

None may be correct, some may be correct, certainly, not all of them are correct.

1. Mind inhabits the brain when suitable but exists it when impossible for functioning. 

Body and Mind in a comforting cave of existence.

2. Mind does not become extinct at death.

3. It grabs another living body and brain by default.

4. The transition period is ill understood as seen in “Near Death Syndrome”.

There is no inter-phase or untar-bhava or elderly wise men helping the soul. 

The transition is quick and automatic without an intervening phase.  

It is like the transmission of an electron through a transistor gate. 

The mind enters the transistor portal and goes into the next “Bhava of Existence” instantaneously and it is one way ticket and no coming back. 

The mind floating in space and looking for a place of rebirth of choice with wise men helping in, is not at all plausible.

The wise men have no right to intervene except masterly inactivity. 

Imagine how all the souls waiting for a rebirth point of entry and thus keep floating in space.

There will be War or Clash of Souls.

I hope you got the point, I am driving at.

Each soul has his or her own pathway of transition. 

Not even so called God can intervene.

5. It either grabs the current body of existence (at least temporarily) with doctors’ help (resuscitation) or has no choice but to exit and enter its own individual path.

6. Mind can exist outside the body.

7. Body can exist without a mind.

EBENs of extraterrestrial origin, comes to my mind. 

EBENs do not have a soul or self but are biological robots.

This is where the bio-engineering would create biological entities / agents that can reproduce identical biological robots. 

The presumption here is that without a previous existence of the mind,  a “new soul” cannot be created de novo.

8. Highest level of mind’s existence is its detachment from the entanglement with the body (current or future existence) or Nirvana in Buddhist Terminology.

9. There have to be many minds of existences and there cannot be a “Unity of Mind” (as a God or super agent of creation).

10. All of the above is not true.

11. Some are plausible and some are not.
