Prof Ian Primer, World renowned Geologist, explains about Carbon Dioxide Emissions

Subject:  Professor Ian Primer   Very Interesting read but I have not confirmed the facts.     Ian Rutherford Plimer is an Australian geologist, professor emeritus of earth sciences at the University of Melbourne, professor of mining geology at the University of Adelaide, and the director of multiple mineral exploration and mining companies. He has published 130 scientific papers, six books and edited the Encyclopedia of Geology.     Born 12 February 1946 (age 67) Residence Australia Nationality Australian Fields Earth Science, Geology,Mining Engineering Institutions University of New England,University of Newcastle,University of Melbourne,University of Adelaide Alma mater University of New South Wales,Macquarie University Thesis The pipe deposits of tungsten-molybdenum-bismuth in eastern Australia (1976) Notable awards Eureka Prize (1995, 2002),Centenary Medal(2003), Clarke Medal(2004)         Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From? Professor Ian Plimer could not have said it better! If you've read his book you will agree, this is a good summary.    PLIMER: "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland . Since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.   Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it’s that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life. I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up tillmidnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50p  light bulbs with £5 light bulbs ..... well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.   The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon.  And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud at any one time - EVERY DAY.   I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt.  Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.   Yes, folks, Mt.  Pinatubo was active for over one year - think about it!!!!   Of course, I shouldn't spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.   And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years.   And it happens every year.   Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the bogus 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.   Hey, isn’t it interesting how they don’t mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change' - you know why? It’s because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past few years and these global warming bull artists got caught with their pants down.   And, just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed on you that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.  It won’t stop any volcanoes from erupting, that’s for sure.   But, hey, relax......give the world a hug and have a nice day!"

Family Problems, Illness Major Causes For Suicide

July 24, 2014 by Chaitanya Mallapur 0 Comments

There were 134,799 suicides across the country in 2013, according to data released by National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) under Ministry of Home Affairs. That’s an increase of 12% year-on-year. It also means that there were 369 suicidal deaths every day in India or 15 every hour!

Family problems is the number one reason accounting for 24% (32,325) of the total suicides followed by illness at 19.6% (26,426). Almost 89 suicides were reported each day due to family problems while 72 deaths were reported because of ill health.  According to Johnson Thomas, Director of AASRA, a Mumbai based organisation, that has an helpline for people with suicidal tendencies, says that  they get almost 50-55 calls a day from people in distress and that the major reasons are lack of communication and misunderstandings in relationships, students unable to handle peer pressure etc.  He also highlighted the fact that suicide attempts made by females are more but go unrecorded where as males use more violent means to end life hence increasing their chances and numbers.

Other categories that accounted for suicides were  ”Other Causes ” 19.2% (25,838), Causes Not Know 15.6% (20965), Drug Abuse / Addiction 3.4% (4,591) and Love Affairs 3.3% (4,495).

Three categories saw a decline in suicides rates. Poverty, property dispute and physical abuse (rape,etc) reported a fall of 18.5%, 8% and 4%, respectively.

The ratio is skewed towards men as there were 248 male suicides every day in India. The overall male:female ratio of suicide victims was 67:33.

Maharashtra reported the maximum suicide deaths at 16,622 followed by Tamil Nadu (16,601), Andhra Pradesh (14,607), West Bengal (13,055) and Karnataka (11266).

In terms of mega cities, Chennai reported the maximum suicidal deaths at 2,450 followed by Bengaluru (2,033), Delhi (1753) and Mumbai (1322).

The chart below explains the reasons for suicidal deaths in India.

Jalna girl selected to play in World Cup Football of a different kind in South America

Mumbai | Jalna : July 31, 2014

Jalna girl Rohini Pashte has been selected to represent India at the Homeless World Cup Football in Santiago, Chile this October. It’s indeed a matter of great pride for 12-year-old who has come a long way from her village of Pithori Shirasgaon in Ambad block of Jalna district. .. 

The differences between Pithori Shirasgaon and the Chilean capital could not be starker. While Rohini’s village is home to a mere 2000 people, Santiago, with 6.3 million population is among the prosperous cities of Latin America.

No girl from Jalna has ever travelled to South America. Rohini Pashte will be the first to make the 14,300-kilometre-long journey from Maharashtra’s Marathwada region to Chile. This will also be the first time she will be travelling by airplane - something the pre-teen or, for that matter, anyone in her family and village had ever dreamed.

What makes Rohini’s accomplishment all the more striking is that she comes from a region that is notorious for the continued prevalence of a practice that was outlawed over 80 years ago: child marriage. It is still common for girls in Marathwada to be forced to drop out of school and be married off by their 13^th birthday. Many die prematurely during childbirth. In fact, Rohini’s elder sister was married off at the age of 14. This was due to a social mindset that views girls as liabilities and doesn’t privilege their rights or education. Needless to say, the sister’s fate was also sealed by poverty.

The Pashtes are a poor family, leading a hand-to-mouth existence. They own a 2-acre plot of land. Rohini’s father died some years ago and the onus of earning a livelihood fell on their mother. She works as a daily wage labourer on other farmers’ fields, earning a meagre sum of Rs 70-100 per day, well below the minimum wage.  Working from dawn to dusk, the mother could not give her children as much attention as she wanted, let alone their education. So Rohini’s grandfather took her brother under his care to secure his right to education. But Rohini, being a girl was left behind. Her mother made her drop out of school in class 4 to work alongside her in the field to make ends meet. But this didn’t diminish the young girl’s desire to go to school.

One day Rohini’s uncle mentioned that a new school had opened in Ambad: the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya, a government-supported, NGO-run boarding school where education, food, clothing, bedding and medicines are provided free of cost to underprivileged girls from disadvantaged communities-girls like Rohini.

At first, Rohini’s mother was sceptical about sending her daughter to a school 30 kilometres away, as she herself had never set foot outside their village. But when she heard that the school would provide her daughter all the facilities free of cost, she decided to send Rohini there. And this proved to be a turning point in the young girl’s life!

Recalling her early days at KGBV, teachers say she was a shy and reticent. Rohini felt overwhelmed by her new surroundings and peers. She kept to herself and barely managed to keep up in the classroom. But it was in the field of sports that she showed her potential. which was rightly spotted by the sports teacher Rafiq Sheikh. He encouraged Rohini to participate in every game. He also introduced her to Radha Shinde, an older student and budding sportsperson. “Radha is like an elder sister to me. With her guidance I was able to perform both in the classroom and the playground” says Rohini.  

Initially, Rohini took part in only Kho kho and track events . Then when she watched Radha playing football, she felt inspired and followed in her footsteps. Soon Rohini began to excel in the sport that required magic feet..

“After joining KGBV, I received quality training in sports. In our school both studies and sports are given equal importance. I love sports so much that I don’t feel like going home during the vacations. I feel like staying back in school to practise”, Rohini chuckles.

It has been four years since Rohini began playing football and Kho kho. She has represented the school at various competitions across the state. Rafiq Sheikh makes it a point to ensure that the girls participate in every inter-school competition to gain exposure and confidence. “He tells us before every match that no matter how small the villages we come from, we can outshine any school, in any sport if we practise hard and play well. This motto is engrained in our minds,” says Rohini. When Rohini goes back to her village for the holidays, she gathers all the girls together to impart sports training. At first, this didn’t go down well with many, including Rohini's mother, who believed, “It doesn’t look nice for girls to be so boisterous and play football.” But ever since Rohini got selected to play internationally, the mood and mindset towards sports in Pithori Shirasgaon had gradually changed. Posters have been put up around the village congratulating Rohini on her success.

It is this “yes, we can” spirit that saw Rohini’s team winning the Panchayat Yuva Krida aur Khel Abhiyan, held in Jalgaon in 2013 under the initiative of Ministry of Sports & Youth Affairs. It was at this event that a representative from Slum Soccer spotted Rohini and signed her up. Slum Soccer is a non-profit organisation that reaches out to the homeless, slum-dwellers and disadvantaged children from villages, using football as a tool for social empowerment. At a football event organised by Slum Soccer in Nagpur, Rohini was selected to represent India in Santiago, Chile. There she will meet, interact and play football with 500 children from 64 participating nations from around the world.

About the Homeless World Cup

The Homeless World Cup was founded by Mel Young from Scotland and Harald Schmied from Austria, who came up with the idea at a conference on homelessness, in Cape Town in 2001. They both believed that it was possible to “change the lives of homeless people through football” and two years later in 2003, the first Homeless World Cup tournament took place in Graz in Austria.

The Homeless World Cup uses the power of football to energise homeless people so they can change their own lives. It supports grass-roots football programmes and social enterprise development via a network of 70 national partners and celebrates its work by organising an annual football tournament that unites teams of homeless people from countries all around the globe.

Breaking Barriers in Heart Care-Chelation Therapy

Breaking Barriers in Heart Care

Everyone knows that smoking is bad for health. It can cause heart disease, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), cancer, Alzheimer’s and a whole host of other problems. For years, scientists assumed that the damage was done either by the smoke or the nicotine. A new study on a group of smokers found something very surprising. The researchers discovered high levels of lead and cadmium in blood of those with artery damage. Those with the highest blood levels of these metals were three times more likely to develop PAD. The scientists concluded that not the smoke, but the heavy metals in cigarette smoke damage the lining of arteries, leading to more pronounced disease.

These metals don’t have to be very high to cause problems and the arterial disease can be was associated with lead concentrations only 13% higher than those without PAD. The toxins in cigarette smoke affect even non smokers and as the heavy metals are everywhere they are easily absorbed from the environment and many edibles. A little lead enter our body every time we sip coffee from a ceramic mug or smudges the fingers with lead containing ink when reading the daily newspaper. Even the computer monitor and television set contain lead and many candles contain lead in their wicks that raise the concentration of lead in the air when they burn.

The good news is that toxic heavy metals can be removed with a process known as chelation therapy. Medical practitioners have treated atherosclerotic disease that causes heart attack with chelation therapy for over 50 years. Till now lack of strong evidence relegated chelation therapy to complementary medicine practitioners, who reported good results. Over time evidence linking metals with cardiovascular disease and mortality gradually accumulated, suggesting a possible role for chelation therapy. Based on this concept the Trial to Assess Chelation Therapy (TACT) was conducted. In the study intravenous EDTA based chelation with multivitamins and multi-minerals was given. Total 1708 patients aged 50 years or above, who had already had a heart attack were studied. The treatment proved to be safe and reduced overall cardiovascular events by 18%. The benefit in patients with diabetes mellitus was even better with a 41% reduction in need for treatment.

Dr Sibia, Director of Sibia Medical Centre, Ludhiana introduced this service in India in the early 1990’s and hence is fondly referred to as Father of Chelation Therapy in India. He said “The study validates what we are doing. Worldwide millions of patients with heart disease and poor circulation have chosen this treatment. We have personally seen benefit from chelation so we recommend it to our patients who want an alternative to surgery or stents. Chelation is safe and we have done over 2300 chelations in the year 2013 and most of our patients are satisfied. As we provide ACAM (USA) protocol and international treatments at Indian cost popularity of our centre among overseas patients is increasing and patients from over 30 countries have availed various treatments at Sibia Medical Centre. Chelation Therapy can be life saving for patients who are unfit for surgery, where bypass or stent has failed and those who want to avoid surgery. An educational website www.chelation.in provides more details of this treatment.”
