UPROOTED HOUSE & A SLEEPING ANDUA





(CLICK TO ENLARGE)
The tree was up rooted by a bulldozer and this innocent bird with his partner watched helplessly from a lamp post the destruction of nature by man along with their eggs.The lady has probably gone out in search of a tree(birds habitable) which are now a rarity in towns and cities.
The other photo is that of a Lizard family creature, we call it Andua in Odiya found every where in the world, has many enemies, she is pregnant, sleeping on our bitter gourd creeper for fresh air.One photo taken with flash and the other under moon light

DRIED LAKE OF PARALAKHEMUNDI



Once upon a time this lake was so large that when asked about the depth of the water from the people taking bath in it used to say-"an elephant may get drowned" that was in 1960 but in 2012 January hardly few glasses of polluted water remains as one can see in this photograph.The maharaja of Parlakhemundi, Krushna Chancdra Gajapati who built beautiful lakes and huge ponds,brought narrow gauge train line during 40's are in ruins, neither the people nor the Orissa Government ever care to revive this beautiful place situated at the border of Andhra and Odish. Governors visits so also the CM but Parlakhemundi is in ruins.I spent three years of my childhood during 60's but was disappointing by the callous attitude of the people of that place.It has become a district and Paralakhemundi is the head quarter but alas what has happened to this place?It was a nice place but now it's hot round the year,dirty roads,dilapidated schools and Government college buildings.

DESTINY MAN DESTINY

GENERATION GAP:
Amiya lost his father while he was too young to know the meaning of death. He was reared up by his uncle(mamu).He was a good student and stood first in his class and earned scholarship which reduced the financial burden on his uncle Balbhadra who too has two sons and three daughters. He was destined to be a doctor of medicine and became a gynecologist.
Years passed by and he served the remotest possible places of Odisha state in India, but he never complained. He was a sincerer and devoted professional.
He was not interested to get married but his widow mother was not keeping a good health hence she needed some one to take care of her and her son. The daughter in law was from a rich affluent political family but that too did not help him in his posting. He was hunted like a wild animal by the health department of Odisha as he declined to pay bribe to the administrators.
He had a son who too was like his father, brilliant in studies but was pampered by his mother. His name was Hrusikesh. Neither Amiya’s wife Sumitra nor Hrusi ever stayed with him in those remote places of the state. Amiya was a devoted man to medical profession which saved him from the boredom of a lonely life in the far flung places of the eastern state of India. Neither his wife nor the son ever paid any visits to see the new places and watch the local people and the hardship faced by Amiya.
Hrusikesh had only one ambition in life that is to go to a foreign land and rub shoulders with the white people. Amiya spent sleepless nights in the hot humid summer of southern Odisha where as his pampered son and affluent wife slept in the comfort and charms of a five star rated air conditioner.
Days and months passed off our Hrusikesh flew to London for higher studies and the old lady who was with the son in those old designed house succumbed due to a cardiac arrest when her son was away for duty.
A few days before her death she had requested her son Amiya to call Hrusikesh at least for a day. But alas she could not fulfill her last desire that’s why she always used to say –“Man proposes and God disposes”. That’s life.

RISKY BUSINESS



These manual laborers earn hardy Rs200 per day but do a tight rope risky business.Safety measures are never provided by the contractors nor it's taught to these workers as a result of which thousands die every year or get paralyzed from waist below(paraplegia).You can see the huge apartment built by these in this picture but they them selves stay in slums and sleep on the floor but are the first to use the toilets.In Bhubaneswar house building is a very profitable business provided you know the trick.Its not a good place to settle down in old age.Too hot round the year, dusty, unruly public, dangerous traffic manners, think twice before purchasing a house for your stay at Bhubaneswar.70% purchase it as an investment and for it's resale value.

AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES



The graph shows the rise in autism in USA from 1996 to 2007.
SHOULD A CHILD BE VACCINATED WITH 26 PRICKS/DROPS??
The chances are that your child may not suffer any of the disease for which multiple pricks (now painless injections for affluent society babies) are given but may die of road accidents, drowning; assaults by psychopaths etc as there are no vaccines for these later causes.
Let’s analyze one by one;
1: BCG (In the past and present its role is doubtful hence routine use for all babies is not required).

2: POLIO: (DECLEARDRED DISEASE FREE IN INDIA) so why vaccinates and invite autism?

3: Whooping cough (A rarity now) should not be given routinely?

4: HEPATITIS –B (high risk, meaning there by if the child is going to be gay, will need Blood transfusion, mother has positive report etc,with screening of blood for blood donors, I do not think its necessary in all new born,( leave to parents highlighting the possibility of diabetes, Rheumatoid arthritis, Asthma & demyelization.)

5: Tetanus: Only in sports person/workers/pregnant ladies/undergoing surgery after they grow up to be 15 years old.

6: Diphtheria (Incidence is low hence routine use is of doubtful value+ we have treatment for this disease)

7: Hepatitis A (every one is drinking mineral water so no point in vaccinating every one) it’s not a lethal disese, self limiting.

8: Rubella or German measles (only in pregnancy, developed countries)

9: Inflenza (so many strains vaccine for which one?)

10: common sense vaccination by parents.
The problem is woman are getting exhausted with one delivery hence they do not want to take a chance and go on vaccinating their children till they become immunocompromised. The side effects are many, autoimmune diseases are on the rise due to? Mass vaccination programme. Let’s use common sense medicine and see the result. Western people supply free medicines to us(developing countries) for their own children safety nothing else.Like ICC being a puppet in the hands of BCCI so also WHO in MS hands, for that reason the global vaccination programme is such a big business. Reflecting on the growing public concern about the World Health Organization’s linkages with the corporate world, Tom Fawthrop wonders whether world health policy is in danger of falling into the clutches of the unelected gnomes of Davos. It was symbolic of the crisis facing the United Nations' World Health Organization that billionaire Bill Gates, the Chairman of Microsoft, was the special guest speaker addressing last year's World Health Assembly (WHA) of WHO member states. This followed from Gates' previous address at the 2005 edition of the WHA. Commenting on the then unprecedented invitation extended to Gates to deliver a keynote speech at the WHA, the People's Health Movement (PHM) viewed it as 'part of an alarming trend of various UN organizations, including WHO, kowtowing to global multinational corporations under the guise of the "Global Compact" and so-called "Public-Private Partnerships"'. 'It is time to either declare Micro soft a WHO member country, or stop the shameful promotion of global corporations at important UN meetings,' said a PHM spokesperson. While Gates was ostensibly invited to the 2011 WHA in his capacity as co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, activist groups say that the line dividing his philanthropy from his links to pharmaceutical interests and his company's business strategy is very thin. The origins of this public-private sector partnership process can be traced to WHO's chronic funding problems.
