[www.keralites.net] കടുവയുടെ വായിൽനിന്ന് രക്ഷപ്പെട്ടതിന്റെ നടുക്കവുമായി

 

കടുവയുടെ വായിനിന്ന് രക്ഷപ്പെട്ടതിന്റെ നടുക്കവുമായി തഹസിദാ

കോഴിക്കോട്: ഔദ്യോഗിക ഡ്യൂട്ടിക്കിടയി കടുവയുടെ ആക്രമണത്തി പരിക്കേറ്റ സുത്താ ബത്തേരിയിലെ തഹസിദാ കെ.കെ. വിജയ രണ്ടാഴ്ചയായി കോഴിക്കോട്ടെ ഒരു സ്വകാര്യ ആശുപത്രിയി ചികിത്സയിലാണ്.
ജീവ രക്ഷപ്പെട്ടത് തലനാരിഴയ്ക്കാണ്.
ഇരു തുടയിലും ആഴത്തിലുള്ള മുറിവ്.
എഴുന്നേല്ക്കാ പറ്റാത്ത അവസ്ഥ.

ബത്തേരിയിലെ കുറുന്പ കോളനിയി ഇറങ്ങിയ കടുവയെ പിടിക്കാനാണ് ഫോറസ്റ്റ് റെയ്ഞ്ചക്കൊപ്പം റവന്യൂ ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥനെന്ന നിലയ്ക്ക് സ്ഥലത്ത് പോവേണ്ടി വന്നത്.
മയക്കുവെടി വിദഗ്ദ്ധ കടുവയെ വെടിവെച്ച് വീഴ്ത്തി. വാഴക്കുണ്ടി വീണ കടുവ മയങ്ങിയെന്ന് കരുതിയാണ് അടുത്ത് ചെന്നത്. എന്നാ കടുവ മയങ്ങിയിരുന്നില്ല.
പെട്ടെന്നായിരുന്നു ആക്രമണം.
വലതുതുട കടിച്ചുപറിച്ചു.
ഇടതുതുടയി നഖങ്ങ ആഴ്ന്നിറങ്ങി. വേദന കൊണ്ട് ആത്തുവിളിച്ചെങ്കിലും ആയുധമേന്തിയ വനപാലകക്കു പോലും നിസ്സഹായരായി നോക്കി നിക്കാനേ കഴിഞ്ഞുള്ളൂ.
കടുവ ദേശീയ മൃഗമല്ലേ. കൊല്ലാ പാടില്ല!
അപ്പോഴാണ് നാട്ടുകാരി ആരോ കല്ലെടുത്തെറിഞ്ഞത്. ഉട കടുവ അയാളുടെ നേരെ തിരിഞ്ഞു. ആ തക്കത്തിന് ആളുക ചോരവാന്ന് മൃതപ്രായനായി കിടന്ന വിജയനെ ആശുപത്രിയിലെത്തിച്ചു. അങ്ങനെ ജീവ തിരിച്ചുകിട്ടി. ചികിത്സയുടെ ഫലമായി അപകടനില തരണം ചെയ്തു.

''
ഭാഗ്യം കൊണ്ടാണ് രക്ഷപ്പെട്ടത്. ആ രംഗമോക്കുമ്പോ ഇപ്പോഴും ഉള്ളു പിടയ്ക്കുന്നു. അപ്പോ ആരും കല്ലെടുത്ത് എറിയുക പോലും ചെയ്തില്ലായിരുന്നെങ്കി'' വിജയന് ക്കാനാവുന്നില്ല.
ഇപ്പോ പരസഹായമില്ലാതെ എഴുന്നേക്കാനാവില്ല. മുറിവുക ആഴത്തിലാണ്. ശരീരത്തിന്റെ ഏതെങ്കിലും ഭാഗത്ത് നിന്ന് മാംസം തുന്നിപ്പിടിപ്പിക്കണം. മുറിവുണങ്ങാ ഇനിയും ആഴ്ചക വേണ്ടിവരും. ആശുപത്രി ബി വരാനിരിക്കുന്നതേയുള്ളൂ. വേദന തിന്ന നിമിഷങ്ങക്ക് കൂട്ട് ഭാര്യയും കുട്ടികളും മാത്രം.
ഔദ്യോഗിക കൃത്യനിവഹണത്തിനിടെ കടുവയുടെ ആക്രമണത്തിന് ഒരു തഹസിദാ ഇരയായിട്ടും സക്കാരിന്റെ ഭാഗത്തുനിന്ന് ആരും ആശുപത്രിയിലേക്ക് തിരിഞ്ഞു നോക്കിയില്ല.
തീച്ചയായും സക്കാ സഹായിച്ചു. ചികിസയ്ക്കു വേണ്ട മെഡിക്ക ലീവ്. അത് അനുവദിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ട് !!

[www.keralites.net] Ten Unique "Graveyards"

 

Have you ever wondered what happens to decommissioned machines and other similar facilities that people once used? Some of these objects are being recycled, and many of them are piling up on the so-called Object Graveyards and there waiting to be completely eaten by the ravages of time. Places of natural decomposition of such objects can be unusual tourist destinations and sites to capture amazing photos.


1. Aircraft Boneyard, USA
Fun & Info @ Keralites.net

The 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (AMARG), often called The Boneyard is located near Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona. For those of you that have never seen it, it's difficult to comprehend the size of it.
Fun & Info @ Keralites.net
The number of aircraft stored there and the precision in the way they are parked is impressive. Another important fact is that they are all capable of being returned to service if the need ever arises.
Fun & Info @ Keralites.net
AMARG is a controlled-access site, and is off-limits to anyone not employed there without the proper clearance. The only access for non-cleared individuals is via a bus tour which is conducted by the nearby Pima Air & Space Museum. Bus tours are Monday through Friday only. Both the museum and the Bone Yard are very popular attractions in the Arizona desert.

2. Ship Graveyard, Mauritania
The city of Nouadhibou is the second largest city in Mauritania and serves as the country's commercial center. It is famous for being the location of one of the largest ship graveyard in the world. Hundreds of rusting ships can be seen all around, in the water, and on beaches.
One of the most commonly read explanation for that situation is that Mauritanian harbor officers were taking bribes and allowing ships to be discarded in the harbor and around the bay. This phenomenon started in the 80's after the nationalization of the Mauritanian fishing industry, numerous uneconomical ships were simply abandoned there.
The city of Nouadhibou is one of the poorest locations in the world. Right over these phantom beaches there are people living inside the huge merchant boats.

3. Train Cemetery, Bolivia
One of the major tourist attractions of southwestern Bolivia is an antique train cemetery. It is located 3 km (1.9 MI) outside Uyuni and is connected to it by the old train tracks. The town served in the past as a distribution hub for the trains carrying minerals on their way to the Pacific Ocean ports.
The train lines were built by British engineers who arrived near the end of the 19th century and formed a sizable community in Uyuni. The rail construction started in 1888 and ended in 1892.
The trains were mostly used by the mining companies. In the 1940s, the mining industry collapsed, partly due to the mineral depletion. Many trains were abandoned thereby producing the train cemetery. There are talks to build a museum out of the cemetery.

4. Vozdvizhenka Aircraft Graveyard, Russia
Littered with at least 18 gutted Tupolev Tu-22M Backfires of the 444th Heavy Bomber Regiment, Vozdvizhenka air base resembles a post-apocalyptic landscape. Entering this barren place, located near Ussuriysk in the Primorsky Krai region of Far East Russia, 60 miles (95 km) north of Vladivostok and 40 miles (65 km) from the Chinese border, is like taking a step back in time.
The 444th Regiment was disbanded in 2009, with some aircraft transferred to the Belaya air base, and others dismantled (removed engines, equipment, and with holes cut in the fuselage).
The aircraft carcasses are awaiting final metal cutting. Currently based at the airfield is the aviation commandant of Khurba airbase and the 322 Aircraft Repair Factory.

5. Anchor Graveyard, Portugal
Among the dunes of Tavira island, in Portugal, there's an impressive anchor graveyard called the Cemitério das Âncoras. It was built in remembrence of the glorious tradition of tuna fishing with large nets fixed with these anchors, a fishing technique already invented by the Phoenicians.
Tavira used to be a place devoted to the tuna fishing. They built up this anchor graveyard to remember those who had to quit their occupation when the big fish abandoned the coasts.

6. Soviet Tank Graveyard, Afghanistan
On the outskirts of Kabul, Afghanistan there's a massive collection of abandoned Soviet battle vehicles left behind after the failure of a massive eastern bloc military occupation of the country in the 1970's and 1980's.
The Soviets left in a hurry and couldn't be bothered to find a way to get broken-down tanks back home, so now they sit, partially stripped and covered in graffiti.
Afghanistan has few recycling facilities, so this cemetery of tanks will likely remain where it is for many more years as a reminder of the Russian invasion.
7. Submarine Graveyard, Russia
The area around Nezametnaya Cove, close to the town of Gadzhiyevo, in Murmansk Oblast on the Kola Peninsula, is a cemetery where is located a lot of old Russian submarines. After serving their duty underwater, the submarines were brought to this restricted-access zone in the 1970s and then forgotten.
Locals said that some of the old submarines were used for target practice in military exercises and often sunk, an employment of the old "out of sight, out of mind" strategy. Others were simply left in the bay to rust and rot, floating to the surface like so many whale carcasses.

8. Moynaq Ship Graveyard, Uzbekistan
Moynaq is a city in northern Karakalpakstan in western Uzbekistan. Home to only a few thousand residents at most, Moynoq's population has been declining precipitously since the 1980s due to the recession of the Aral Sea.
Once a bustling fishing community and Uzbekistan's only port city with tens of thousands of residents, Moynoq is now a shadow of its former self, dozens of kilometers from the rapidly receding shoreline of the Aral Sea.
For travellers the main reason to visit Moynaq is to see the ship graveyard, a collection of rusting hulks that were once the town's fishing fleet. It's an image that perfectly illustrates the disaster - once proud vessels beached in a sandy desert.
Unfortunately there aren't many left, as scrap metal companies made short work of them before the tourism authorities forbade it. In one final kick for a local population already downed, the money didn't go to the people who owned the boats; it was divided up between the scrap companies and government officials.

9. Taxi Graveyard, China
Thousands of scrapped taxis are abandoned in a yard in the center of Chongqing, China. Traffic congestion and pollution have worsened dramatically in Chinese cities because the country's long-running economic expansion has allowed increasing numbers of consumers to make big-ticket purchases such as cars, which means many no longer have to rely on taxis or public transportation.

10. Phone Booth Graveyard, UK
This phone booth graveyard is located between Ripon and Thirsk, near the village of Carlton Miniott, UK. There are located hundreds of disused telephone booths.
Decommissioned old red booths are systematically replaced by new modern booths, and deposited in one site near this English village.

[www.keralites.net] Advice From Dad to Son

 

Dear Son,

I am writing this to you because of 3 reasons......


1. Life, fortune and mishaps are unpredictable, nobody knows how long he lives. Some words are better said early.
2. I am your father, and if I don't tell you these, no one else will.
3. What is written is my own personal bitter and better experiences that perhaps could save you a lot of unnecessary heartaches.

Remember the following as you go through life....
1. Do not bear grudge towards those who are not good to you. No one has the responsibility of treating you well, except your mother and I. To those who are good to you, you have to treasure it and be thankful, and ALSO you have to be cautious, because, everyone has a motive for every move. When a person is good to you, it does not mean he really likes you. You have to be careful, don't hastily regard him as a real friend.
2. No one is indispensable, nothing in the world that you must possess. Once you understand this idea, it would be easier for you to go through life when people around you don't want you anymore, or when you lose what / who you love most.
3. Life is short and every day counts. Do not look for another day or event or person or a thing to give you happiness. Staying happy is your decision and you can be happy in any situation, if you desire to be so. Trust me, I have lost a major part of my life waiting for "something from some to happen at some time" to give me happiness. Finally, I have realized that "something is my decision to stay happy and enjoy life", that "some one" who can give me happiness is myself and that "some time" is "now" and ever. Trust me I feel like being a new born and wish that I realized it 39 years ago. Better late than never. I would advice you to start being happy from today.
4. Do not postpone actions. If you have something to do, do it now. Keep saying to yourself "If not me, who". If not now, when?". It is better to finish the work and stay relaxed later.5. Love is but a transient feeling, and this feeling would fade with time and with one's mood. If your so called loved one leaves you, be patient, time will wash away your aches and sadness. Don't over exaggerate the beauty and sweetness of love, and don't over exaggerate the sadness of falling out of love.
6. A lot of successful people did not receive a good education, that does not mean that you can be successful by not studying hard! Whatever knowledge you gain is your weapon in life. One can go from rags to riches, but one has to start from some rags!
7. Do not worry about failure. Some times, failures can teach you more powerful lessons than the success. The lessons learnt from failure will not be easily forgotten. Learn from your mistakes. Do not repeat mistakes. Make newer ones, so that you can learn new lessons.
8. I do not expect you to financially support me when I am old, either would I financially support your whole life. My responsibility as a supporter ends when you are grown up. After that, you decide whether you want to travel in a public transport or in your limousine, whether rich or poor.
9. You honour your words, but don't expect others to be so. You can be good to people, but don't expect people to be good to you. If you don't understand this, you would end up with unnecessary troubles.
10. There is no free lunch! Even if you get one, it won't taste as much as the one that you have bought yourself. Do not wait or plan for fortune. Work hard, learn and earn your success. Do not accept "success" as a gift, work your way to "earn" it.
11. No matter how much time I have with you, let's treasure the time we have together. We do not know if we would meet again in our next life.
12.Be thankful for what you have today...YOur friends, your belongings, your family and everything...Nothing is permanent. Relish and value them when you have it. If you miss any of them, work your way to earn them back.
13. Know that every step of your way, your mom and I will be there to support you...We trust you, have faith in you and love you so dearly. We are thankful to God or whatever it is, that gave you to us.
14. I am not your friend, but your dad. That means that I am more than a friend to you. Trust me and feel free to share anything with me, with out worrying about what I will feel and how I will react. We are here to help you.
15. Do not worry about others laughing at you. The laughing ones will stay there and you will move on and up your way to success. Do not be distracted from your journey and focus.
16. There will be some to bully you, but learn to maneuver your way through them and beyond them. If things go out of hand, escalate to your Teacher / Mom / Myself / Police based on the case.

Always affectionately

Yours father
