Dabangg – A memorable day

abish — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 15:14:46 +0000

Had a memorable day today. I almost lost my scooter, that too because of my carelessness. I parked my scooter in the parking area at Shiv Cinema, Dharan where Dabangg was being shown. I forgot to pull the key and keep it in my pocket. The excitement of watching the movie overlapped the sense of not having the bunch of keys in my pocket.

As soon as movie came to an end, I found out that I had no keys. Damn! I was sinking into the sense of doom. My wife had no words to say. I ran into the parking area, and to my surprise, the scooter was missing from the spot I had last left it. All I could think was of the hundred twenty thousand rupees, which we had saved together to get the scooter. Together with the scooter, my data in the pendrive, the keys to my rooms were all gone.

As I was running here and there in frustration, the security guard asked me if I had lost my scooter ! I was like.. ‘ya, where’s my scooter?’

He gave me my keys and showed me my scooter, which was parked on the opposite side of the parking area. I had no words to thank him and all I was doing was holding his hands and shaking them. It was like losing a hundred thousand rupees and then earning it back. I took out my purse and gave him all the cash I had (six hundred rupees) and then rode back to my residence listening to my wife’s noble words.

Stranger: what about temperature extremes?
You: though the radiation from iridium may harm a few.
Stranger: or low-pressure environments?
You: well. my space ship can easily travel upto mercury. but beyond that, it starts getting heated up
You: to check its limits, i took my ship to the deepest into the black hole, luckily came out safe
Stranger: hmm that was fortunate
Stranger: hey by any chance are you an engineer?

हिन्दु धर्ममा प्रयोग हुने मन्त्रहरु: Commonly used mantras in Nepali culture

abish — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 05:11:09 +0000

Here are the most commonly used mantras ‘chantings’ used in various occasions in Hindu culture.

I’d be adding more in the times to come.

New holy thread ‘janai’ is worn by Hindu males on the occassion of Janai Purnima. Here is the mantra to be said:
जनैपूर्णिमामा नयाँ जनै धारण गर्ने मन्त्र:

यज्ञोपवीतं परमं पवित्रं प्रजापतेर्यत्‌सहजं पुरस्तात् ।
आयुष्यमग्रयं प्रतिमुञ्चशुभ्रं यज्ञोपवीतं वलमस्तुतेज:।।

During Janai Purnima, son-in-laws tie the holy thread ‘doro’ in the hands of their in-laws chanting the following ‘mantra’
डोरो बाँध्ने मन्त्र:

येन बद्धो वलीराजा दानवेन्द्रो महावल: ।
तेन त्वां प्रतिबध्नामि रक्षे मा चल मा चल ।।

अफ् द बिट, एभिन्युज टिभीलाई चिठ्ठी

abish — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 17:14:14 +0000

अफ् द बिटका प्रस्तोता र रिपोर्टर ज्यू,
नमस्कार ।
आज फागुन २१ गते बेलुकाको तपाईहरुको कार्यक्रममा रिपोर्ट गर्नु भएको गर्भवती महिलाको मृत्‍युको समाचारको बारेमा मलाई केहि गुनासो छ ।

नवजात शिशुको जन्म अघि नै दुबै ज्यान गयो, सार्है नराम्रो भयो । तर तपाँईहरुले बिरामीको आफन्तहरुको मात्र बिचार, रिस र गुनासो देखाउनु भयो , खोई त डाक्टरहरुलाई आफ्नो बिचार राख्न दिएको ?
उक्त महिलाको मृत्‍युको कारणको बारेमा केहि बुझ्नै खोज्नु भएन, सिधै डाक्टरहरुले रक्तस्राव रोक्न सक्नै पर्छ, सकेनन् , त्यसैले उनीहरु दोषी हुन् भन्नु भयो ।
अस्पताल र स्वास्थ्य सेवाको बारेमा समाचार प्रेषित गर्दा तपाईहरुले अलिकति खोजबिन गर्न जरुरी हुन्छ ।
रक्तस्रावको कारण नेपालमा मात्र होईन, बिकाशित देशहरुमा पनि गर्भवती महिलाहरुको मृत्‍यु हुन्छ । यस्तो हुदैंमा डाक्टरहरुले कोशिस नै गरेनन् , लापरबाही गरे भन्न मिल्छ जस्तो लाग्दैन ।
तपाई पत्रकारहरुको कुरामा धेरै मानिसले विश्वास गर्छन, त्यसैले बिना ‘research’ कुनै पनि समाचार प्रेषित गर्न हुदैन जस्तो लाग्छ ।

हुन त यो emailले तपाईलाई कति नै पो छुन्छ होला र , तर पनि मलाई लेख्न मन लाग्यो ।
कृपया एकतर्फी तर्क मात्र देखाउने पत्रकारिता नगरिदिनुहोला ।

तपाईको ‘आफ्नो’ बिचार replyको रुपमा पाउने आश गरेको छु ।

-डा. आविश अधिकारी, धरान ।

Your System will shutdown in 59 minutes

abish — Mon, 25 May 2009 00:44:53 +0000

Are you getting this kind of message on your screen when using windows?

Here is a quick guide to solve that.

1. go to run and type ‘shutdown -a’
`-` this probably closed the shutting down countdown.

2. go to cmd,
C:\> CD WINDOWS
C:\WINDOWS> DEL /A /F /S system.bat
C:\WINDOWS> MD system.bat

simple… you deleted system.bat because that is what is causing the countdown..
you created folder called ‘system.bat’ so that the virus that is running can’t create a file with the same name again.

comment if you aren’t able to control the problem.

abish — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 01:14:01 +0000

You can try that too. Its really easy:
1. Use 2 hands.
2. Keep on pressing Unlock for around 2 seconds until you see press *
3. Quickly press *
haha! you successfully unlocked you nokia cell phone without the security code.

Innocent but Positive

abish — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 11:21:18 +0000

Meet baby boy Himal, from Jhapa. He is just 10 months old, and was in our Paediatrics ward when I was posted there.
He was admitted to investigate for his recurrent severe pneumonia.

After admission, a proper medical history was taken. Family history revealed that both his parents died due to complications of AIDS.
He has a elder brother, just 6 years old, who has recently been tested positive. Both the boys live with their grandmother who has no source of income and no family support.

The reason for the baby boy’s recurrent pneumonia was apparent, but I was waiting for the test results with crossed fingers. The results came, it was positive for HIV. But there still remains a small hope that it might be the antibodies from the mother’s blood that would clear off after he is about 2 years of age.

When my seniors were investigating more and trying to fit him into a classification of HIV, I was thinking about the future of the boy. How could his parents be so ignorant? They already knew their HIV status
when their first child was to be born. They simply ruined two lives…
As for me, I still remember the grandmother’s wet eyes.

Gynaecology: My experience

abish — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 14:08:16 +0000

Ever since I had been posted in gynecology, dressing of bed number 8 used to be the most expensive task! Basant could trade it with a cup of coffee and a plate of momos. No one ever liked to change her dressings because she was a patient of foul smelling growth coming out of her vagina. It as amazing how this old lady, thin and very pale could wait for so long to come to the hospital with such a huge mass. It was more than 10X10X5 cms, a little more than 750gms. What worse would the decision be than to have twice daily dressing change for her.
“Empathy makes a good doctor” is what our favorite professors used to say often. But I absolutely had no ideas how I was to empathize that.
After initial stablisation for a week or so, Hanoon ma’am and the team chopped it off along with the uterus. I was ‘doing a good job’ holding the mass while she removed it.

One day, I was assisting Nibedita ma’am in the OPD on the post-night-duty day. I was having a cooler time because there was no running around unlike the wards. Every case was typical, the typical pelvic pain, the same irregular periods.
She then entered the OPD after I called her name. A beautiful girl, just eighteen, well dressed and carrying herself really impressively. Along came a guy, not that impressive. She didn’t even look around and straight away started talking to Nibedita ma’am. From the conversation they were having, I could make out that she thought she had conceived and wanted an abortion.
She said she is still going to college and it was an unplanned pregnancy. She exactly knew what she wanted and was very calm and confident. Then I came to know that the guy was her husband. Since it was just a 6 weeks pregnancy, ma’am counseled her to wait a week or so before anything had to be done, and mean while to take up some blood tests and a ultrasonography. I started filling the investigation forms.
I was really surprised to know she was a known case of HIV infection. In her early stages of AIDS, all I could think at that moment was, “Shocking! How can this be possible? She doesn’t look like a drug addict, nor like a prostitute.” Then came a different logic, “ It’s the guy!” Whatever it be, I really was impressed by her confidence. The confidence to live, to accept what now is a part of her life.

Women, amazing creation of god ( or the molding of the society).

Texidor’s twinge

abish — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 13:17:04 +0000

I was posted in medicine ward a few months ago. My ward had a few old heart patients who needed my active attention. As it was my night duty, I was at the bed side, reading an ECG when someone said, “Abish dai, mero ECG ra X-ray heri dinu na”

He was my junior from 3rd year. He said he had a sharp chest pain on left side. All his ‘medical’ brain could think was myocardial infarction, a heart attack. I was least worried about him and was attaching the ECG machine on the old patient with ‘significant’ chest pain.

He kept on waiting for a while seeking my attention. After sometime I asked him about his chest pain. He said it started half a hour ago, just below the left nipple and sharp piercing pain. He said it was very severe and couldn’t take a deep breath. Though it lasted for 5 minutes, he looked really worried.
I told him that it was nothing serious, and requested him to wait outside (the tone of my request was a little non-polite )
He possibly felt ignored and went to take advice from someone else.
So what was the non-serious ‘severe’ chest pain?

Its a medical entity called ‘Texidor’s Twinge‘ aka Precordial Catch Syndrome. It is not mentioned in our text books but is fairly common among young age group. Its not dangerous and no treatment is needed. All one needs to do is take a very deep breath till a ‘pop’ happens.
