The circumstances in Colombo, Sri Lanka, and in Belfast, Northern Ireland, which led to a) the generalization of luminescent PET (photoinduced electron transfer) sensing/switching as a design tool, b) the construction of a market-leading blood electrolyte analyzer and c) the invention of molecular logic-based computation as an experimental field, are delineated. Efforts to extend the philosophy...

We continue the study undertaken in Efroimsky (2005a) where we explored the influence of spin-axis variations of an oblate planet on satellite orbits. Near-equatorial satellites had long been believed to keep up with the oblate primary’s equator in the cause of its spin-axis variations. As demonstrated by Efroimsky & Goldreich (2004), this opinion had stemmed from an inexact interpretation of a...

Incidencr of Bn~cellosis in dairy herds in District of Colombo (now Districts of Colombo and Gampaha) has bezn surveyed by use of the Milk Ring Test (MRT) and confirmed by quantitative tests like Standard Agglutination Test (SAT) Complement Fixation Test (CFT) and Coonlbs Test (CT) on suspected sera. In all 305 herds involving 1478 dairy cows were tested giving herd infection of 1.6% and the in...
