Here is a DANGEROUS Item: The Broken Atom

The current model of an Atom is of something ball like. The nucleus has a proton and an electron revolves around.

We were discussing science and religion the other day on facebook. That science is as good as the current knowledge the world has at a particular time in history. Unless more is revealed to it, the world
has no further knowledge. In the times of Galelio, Newton and the others, some knowledge was revealed among us about the reality of the natural sorroundings. Because God created everyone of us, it easy for him to reveal a certain knowledge set to anyone he choses. For instance, he did not reveal Jesus to the jews until an appointed time for the gentiles to know him first. There are stories of protestants, heretics, renegade christians and then there is science denying
religion all because the activities that occured within these ages.

It had been always known that the earth is flat. That was the scientific fact the world knew and there were proofs. When the Galelios knew more
theoretically even before it was proven with tangible evidence, the world regarded them as lunartics/heretics/renegade and prosecuted some
for denying the scientific evidence so prevalent even within the church.

(Funny thing is that the same desire for discovery of the concrete evidence that the earth is round, saw missionaries reaching all over
and it is in fact missionaries who discovered more than scientists. Their knowledge of the places also brought slave traders, of coarse.Lest we forget. More like: after Babel the devil had been limited in
his destruction. When the appointed time came, God wanted to spread His
knowledge world over and opened doors to it's unity. But evil found its way again. So it is with Globalisation. While good spreads so fast so does evil.)

It was very clear in our discussion on facebook how an atom could be something made out nothing. Take an atom as a representation of what is tangible in the eye. Looking at the masses of different matter, different quantities can be sub divided into smaller atomic quantities of which for same masses of the substance, there seem to be a fixed number of these atomic quantities. The average of the number was taken and this is called the Avogadro constant. This number is now used to
interpolate between the macro and the micro level of a substance. This is why mathematical calculations in chemistry tally with reality
because the interpolation is good.

Take atoms of oxygen put in a baloon. For the same quantity if heat up, the baloon expands. If cooled down the baloon contracts. But the number of atoms is fixed. What keeps the balloon ball-like is the movement of the atoms.

Why does radio active material have to be contained in special material without which they corrode everything they came in contact with? I could explain it in the model of a balloon. And this baloon at
atominc level. I believe(after having visualised but not had concrete proof) that there are hiearchies of substance even at atomic level
which are somethings made out of nothings: the protons/electrons/neutrons also more of like balloons of nothing or of somethings which has no substance in them. More
of like harnessing the wind or holding the wind in one's hand.

The protons/electrons/neutrons are, at atomic level, held in an envelop like(is it a field?) Which when broken, the contents spill out with some force. These in collission with other substances around, form dents. And the dents become holes which collapse within. This could explain the corrosion(why substances are eaten away), I think.

In this way, breaking the envelops of these sub-atomic elements becomes a dangerous thing in that different substances behave differently. For tin, it is known that in contact with the atmosphere
it reacts with some gases and forms a coat around itself and the corrosion is arrested. For tin like substances, it might be safer. With the collider recently built some substances might be broken without having been properly studied to contain their activity.

On the other hand the idea of a substance present at creation(Bing-Bang as they call it), somehow makes me think. Nobody likes to be in a
cage. Creation is in bondage because of the fall of adam. But here is the ultimate freedom all matter would have when the time comes.

To do a mass prison break of so many substances so jailed without destroying anything, one has to plan in detail and put containments in place otherwise risk destroy everything. To plan every detail it should really take a long time. Creation was done in six days. But this has taken thousands of years(or is its implementation?). There will be a trumpet, and our bodies shall transform. The old earth shall disappear and a new one shall come in it's place. That's the ultimate freedom for all creation. The
rapture. More like an inversion of matter which is currently in bondage.

At the moment creation growns, like in birth pangs, waiting for the sons of God to be revealed. The reveletion of the children of God brings salvation to creation with it.

There are many who have overcome the faithlessness of science and understood that the earth was created by God. If science had faith, it would have hope that the problems it sees have solutions for there is someone who was there even before the problem occured. As it is difficult to build a boat in the middle of the ocean but on land, it
is difficult for a human being to solve problems of the earth than He who is not of the earth. For He created the world, he knows the detail of each problem and the best solution to it. He reveals these things to His people.

Knowledge is good. Proverbs advises seek it. In seeking it, many have found him who is truth. They have learned about
the creator of the things they study. Many rejoice in discovery. Others are hopeless in the things they discover for they find no solution to them. For they see the evidence of a creator and they deny it. In denial of his existance they are deprived of a hope they would have to overcome the fear of the possible.

Take heart though. There is nothing impossible with God. So Jesus says about the rich young man. He must have seen the man having been helped to
salvation when he said this. If He changes Paul a persecutor of the church, who can He not change?

Those who call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The Blessing of The Older and The Younger

They were born twins. The father when the kids were born had nothing
to take care of them. He blessed them in pain and said, the young
shall bless the old and the old shall bless the young. They always
moved in twos. One top the other just nearby down low. In my mind was
like hanna and hlekwase for I saw them seated as such. He released
them and said if you my children suffer don't blame the father. Be
kind to each other, there are two guys I know who take care of each
this way. Dave and Chisomo. I don't understand why. The father was a
bird the kids were birds, what kind of birds live this way? I saw a
bird once they were supposed to fly over a house. One seemed to have
been trapped within the compound. The other was looking out a way to
get the other out. They had no jurisdiction to fly over but who owns
the airspace anyway?
The father had to repeat the blessing twice for he had mixed up the
words on the second time the words came out right: the blessing of the
older and the younger. For the yound to bless the old and the old to
bless the young. Such a blessing of Jacob on Joseph's Kids ephreim and
manasse. A criss-cross of a blessing he himself received from his
father and mother. The father who had blessed Jacob meaning to bless
Esau. Esau who had grown up not wanting to be a slave of the younger.
That he overworked himself so many times to avoid this. It came to an
extent of selling it for food for he had now become tired. I wonder.

An Equitable Idea for Implementing the Equitable Qouta System

They could use a greed algorithm: Start from Chitipa select best ten in Chitipa the Karonga, etc by the time they reach Mwanza I bet a person with 6 points in Nsanje won't find a place at the university. If it starts from Nsanje the government is really in big trouble considering the history. A round-robin algorithm seems optimal: at each level select at least one student from each district. If a district does not have a six point student it waits for its highest. The reasoning is: its not possible to have a district with the highiest without 6 credits(36points). This is using the pegion hole principle on thirty districts. And this round-robin algorithm harts increment for those districts which have already satisfied this to allow for others which haven't until each has 10 students. The harting is in the event that the required number of selected students is nearing 36points and other districts still have less. It is safe to hart it 36 for using the pegion hole principle, it is very probable to find well over than 10 students with 36 points.



The students district description shall not mean the ancestral district but the district of the school from which the student is selected. For accountability's sake, a school name and points of the students be broadcast as always has been the case. If a students points have or school name has been misrepresented there should be proper mechanisms for queries and follow ups.



I wonder if this hasn't been the case. I wonder why they could not think this already if it hasn't been the case.

On IE6

There has been a discussion on a mailing list I am part of about letting IE6 (internet explorer version 6) go.

Most computers especially Windows XP come with this version pre-installed. For non-technical people, this is no problem at all. But to developers it is. A web developer spends so much time to make sure his website looks the same in all web browsers. If there are 5 browsers, that is supposed to be 5 times the work he is supposed to do. Other browsers have move on to create standard compliant browsers. Even Microsoft wants to move on. This is why they have updates IE7 and IE8. Which are now standard complient. Even though the work of programmers is still a little tough looking at differences in rendering engines, it much better than the pain IE6 causes.

Updates are available but IE6 is still around what's wrong. When IE7 was coming on there was a requirement for a genuine OS to run it. This put out most of the users from upgrading. For countries like Malawi, IT professional would really find it difficult to get their own copy of OS(Is there one available? I am looking for one with unlimited installations that would be cheaper for me). The OEM versions required activation by phone which is a little expensive for me and most of IT professionals and technicians who do most of the maintainance in our companies. This really drove back IT people to opt for cracked versions of the operating system which could lock up with IE7 update. So what's the need for an update if it takes a way what you can at least use to get the job done? You only want to check mail, do some spreadsheets write documents and occassional presentations and print. For a user, the update is useless. But who gets hurt?

The developer has developed a very good website to impress his customers. He has tested on most browsers it works but has forgotten that most bosses are still using IE6. And they test it, it is broken all over. Sometimes it is not really his problem. Maybe he has used a reputable web development frameworks which make work easier but all developers are now tired of having to work for IE6 as well for it is a pain. Even reputable frameworks have decided to move on without IE6. It becomes a problem still for the user of the framework for he is now the one losing the moneys for a good work he has done with so much effort.

How do we resolve this? It is supposed to be a collective work at different levels from Microsoft itself to the Windows User to the Framework developers the developers and technicians. As long as OEM still have glitches installing, as long as there are no OS with unlimited licences, as long as they don't follow standards, problems of piracy, breakdowns like IE still remain. They got billions already its time they became a little peaceful with their customers. Generousity is also good. Not all technicians are aware of the recovery partition some wipe it clean with a pirated version. How do technicians operate when most available software are restricted to one or at most 3 installations? This includes anti-viruses.

With OS issue resolved the work of the system administrator is easier. He can now update to newer software versions without glitches. Then the Web developers is happy.

Microsoft can help developers by providing a mechanism to prompt the user to update. Macromedia had flash player, adobe has acrobat reader, microsoft has silverlight, it can also have IE6 update. Though dialup users would still be at a disadvantage. (And yes, there still exist something called dial-up and it becomes very convinient than broadband at times)

In most cases, the system administrator has problems convincing management to buy an OS, and other software. Looking at the expense and the available usable, it is seen as a luxury for the management. Because the management is always busy, it becomes difficult for the sys admin to convince them. So because the sys admin also has a job to keep he also goes for the available usable. He could buy a personal genuine but what's then need when he can use it for only one computer and its useless. He would rather crack himself one and save himself some bread and milk for his family at home. The boss doesn't care why should he? He would have trouble explaining to his wife what he has done with his salary if he bought a genuine antivirus for the company. What the heck!

All Sorts of Thoughts Considering

I thought for a while about todays loss. In my confidence, I spoke.
Its only a holiday. At the thought of a company boss giving this
holiday to his employees. I felt him think: are we going to eat
football? The question of eating caught me. I had thought of not
eating but I decided to go on and eat today. For I asked in my heart
without rain are we going to eat? So today I ate and did not go on
praying. For rain meant my unhappiness for the nation but now I should
eat for maybe indeed God will keep His anger and they might be no food
tomorrow.

Support is the only thing that was missing in our players which for
some reason there seem to be no Malawian in Angola. One loss can bring
so much defeat without external confidence which Malawians did not
have. I will speak on the labour laws which the companies manupulate
to favour only themselves.

In 2008, I almost lost my job because on 1st October 2008 fulfilled
the first year together with her. The only woman who has been kind and
has been by my side always and especially in times everybody
disregarded me. When I remembered the pain I have experienced seeking
love I cried and this woman comforted me it was a day of rejoicing not
crying again. When I was left out to a conference trip unjustly in the
pain and distress I would not have managed to do my thesis. This woman
turned my eyes to look at what I have. Am I being unrealistic? For how
long can one stand on one foot? At this moment, the bestest friend
inflicted the worst pain. I feel like I am in big sin today against
her having prioritised the nation.

My company required me to be at office on a holiday which happened to
be special to me: if the company feels justified to fire me for not
working on a holiday, I would rather not work for anybody. For a whole
month I was not paid over this issue. I had been patient but I felt
the same patience would block my access to heaven, for if it works
only one side(the labour laws favouring the company more than the
employee) it becomes a burden on the employee and becomes bitterness
on the employee. Even if they loved their job, the don't do a good job
anymore. Who wants to do a good thing for a slave driver? They would
rather have him died so they could be free. Chilembwe, a man of God,
our Hero.

I will speak for the sake of Malawi. How do they distroy these
countries with good economies? I am looking at Zimbabwe, Malawi,
China, Iraq, Nigeria, etc. For Malawi, they said, they want a little
freedom, freedom they did give but it was also freedom to do bad then
they said, lets now dig up the evil they have done, a lot of
corruption they did find. A little good idea here and there they are
now the wise, the wise become the caretaker, the caretake gives
handouts(they even give handouts for people to sin as well - how can
God create a homosexial and punish them for being a homosexial? God
did not create homosexials. God created them Male and Female in His
own image. He also saw that it was not good for man to be alone
created woman for him. Because they did not listen to Him he gave them
over to the pervese mind they wanted: some became homosexial in their
perversion ena anatong'ola nawo maso).

In thankfulness to the caretaker people enslave themselves. When time
comes, the caretaker thinks in his heart I will pull of the plug and
all these people will do what I want them to do.

We have a hunger looming over Malawi. Its not all parts of the nation
having this problem. His excellency might have plans to share our
harvest with others outside Malawi but this time each country should
cultivate their own crop the only thing to share is ideas not food.
For indeed the slave driver is pulling of his trigger evident from the
problems funding the budget. I would love it if Malawi does not depend
on subsidies for this is another kind of slavely. If we don't have
money for fertilizer we have at least manure which is absolutely free
and a much better solution than fertilizer. Where is ARET where is
ACHIKUMBE magazines? Where are all those model farmers we have always
seen along the M1?
We eat cooked maize cobs roasted maize cobs throughout the year this
too is food that can be preserved to fill up the coffers that might
have been depleated.

The education we spent so much on, would have helped so much and
without limit if we encouraged each other; If the employee were given
good conditions in doing the job they love, the job done would have
benefited every other malawian even those not working. In denying the
employees holidays, we create unhappy employees. Unhappy employees do
the worst job than employees on leave. I believe 15 days leave a year
is not enough. I love google they give their employees one day off a
week to do their personal work. And this is apart from saturday and
sunday which are naturally holidays.

I will now educate the ministry of education textbook ideas on plannig
an education for the country: simple architecture, history, statistics
to plan on educating a nation.

Planning a school: how many students do we need on this school? x
students. How many teachers? Suppose student teacher ratio is a:b. We
need (x/a)b teachers. Plan a school to hold x students, hostels to
accomodate x students. Build houses to accommodate (x/a)b teachers. To
refine the plan: let's dig up our previous experiences to come up with
x. Is a:b really an optimal ratio? History answers most of those
questions from the trends. Statistics comes in to quantify historical
trends for proper planning. This by the study of the population growth
of areas in which to build schools.

How about the headmaster? He is like a father taking care of his
teachers: he has y teachers but he needs z more. Finds good
accomodation for his teachers and his students, of course. Are the
extra z teachers I need going to find good accomodation? If there is
non, he could arrange some to be rented of course. The community love
him for he helps their children get education. A teacher hunting on
her own will take the whole year hunting without finding one. A
headmaster can easily mobilise a community he so much knows by this
time and will find hundreds of houses available of all kind just for
one teacher to chose from. For the teacher is also a precious
commodity to the community. Seeking on her she doesn't find the house
for they do not know her as the respectable person she is. But if the
headmaster they know introduces are they will protect her day and
night every footsteps she takes. She is that precious.

Zain sends a text message now the game is gone and no internet
connection when the game was on. I had to use twitter to support my
team when I could have used facebook. The sms gives me link for me to
follow soccer results. An insult of sort considering?

Malawi played well and the players have really done the very best they
can. They needed support. Support from us who always they win but
insult them when lose. With the weight of nation on their shoulders,
the fear of torment of the insult for losing, the fear that their
first win might have been false indication of their improvement, the
fear of Mali's performance with Angola, the beginning of the game, the
confirmation of their fears, the lack of external support to build on.

Its time for supporters to play their part of the game for players
have. Football is not only players its also supporters.

Pessions and Salaries

I have just spoken to a relative worrying about the father not working anymore. He used to work what was know as Shire Bus Lines before liquidation but has grown up with it. A good driver/mechanic whom if there had been no privatisation would have been enjoying his pession(though too little for todays financial needs) but would suffice than nothing in old age.

How can these people really be helped? Expect from their children?

To rotate the circle here is a situation I think so much overlooked. A father like him educates a child to get to college and get a job. He expects to rest(retire; not work through the life he has been alive) after that. When the child gets a job he is expected to help the Father who is living on a small pession. But his wages are calculated to suffice only for him. The pession of the Father as well to suffice only for him as an individual. The father has a wife and afew other dependants and relatives at the village. The young graduate has young brothers and a father to take care of. How do we break even?

Now for the father whose company was privatised before any of his children could qualify for university, the situation is worse. He has no pension and no child educated enough to get a break-even salary and support him.

Restructuring: a stastical survey that gives a distribution which is skewed towards the upper quartile for the rich and skewed towards the lower quartile for the poor is bad as bad can be. A normal distribution is required. In restructuring for a salary of a malawian employee the extended family show also be considered other than the household itself. The pension should also consider this. No wonder you find no employee happy with their wages in the civil service.

The law: it seems the law has put fixed amounts in most charges, fines, wages, etc. These things with changing economies deprecate and become useless. Is it possible to put something representative which changes with the changing (is it, inflation rates)? Discount Houses and Banks must have worked these out. It now remains with lawyers to work these out I guess. They don't even have to work alone. We have economists who can help.

Remember also those not receiving pensions from privatised companies.

Of Flag Changes and Meanings

I am chatting with my niece Cathy. Its new year's day seems like we are
the only people who have no where to go. I am going through the
newspaper looking for a vacancy and she has past me the paper and
somehow sees this advert to change the flag. She complains they want to
change the flag! I don't like it I will have to be memorizing again what
colors the flag has.
I thought flags have meanings to its people colors and logos, mission statements, determine the turn people takes. Do we know
the meaning of the new flag? Or How many people have knowlegde of the
meaning of our flag. Many will just says we have black if for the black
people red is for the blood.(Some would put their own meanings of course
because even white people have red blood) there are native white people
in Malawi who have chosen Malawi as their home.
I looked at the flag and thought about words Kamuzu used to say always
talking to the people of Malawi(Kwacha! Ufulu! Mtendere!) I see the sun
against a black background dawn, alright. Why ufulu? Why Mtendere? How
much blood was shed for us to get the enlightment against the oppression
of the white? How much blood to fight for our freedom from the
oppression? Lest we forget now that we are living in peace. People
prosper with a peaceful mind.
Of what meaning is the new flag to the values of the Malawian People? If
stated, we compare and chose what we want to value. In troubled times
memories like these of Kwacha! Ufulu! Mtendere! even in the age of
enlightment, wisdom and knowledge in the absense of rememberance of what
has brought here falling back the dark ages is very easy. Though times
are different some enlightment have been there and some blood as well.
Will the sunset some day? I do believe there are the same processes of
Kwacha Ufulu and Mtendere that we are going through though the natures
of fight of freedom from which blood is still shed are different.

Kansale kokoma kunsinde kowawa pakati komanso kunsonga. So many people
are willing to start at the beginning of the enlightment. Not many go on
when the fight begins. Not many survive to eat the fruits. The born
frees like me would never know the pain if the message of the precious
freedom faught for is lost. Blood really is kuwawa kwa pakati. Green is
really kukoma kwa ufulu so painfully faught for. But it all begins with
enlightment of the ways by which people in pain having endured for long
could be set free.

Even the age of democracy have had its kansale kokoma kunside, kansale
kowawa pakati, kansale kokomanso kunsinde. I would rather the message of
the flag not daluted.

If a leader leads the people to God, God blesses a nation. Tiyende
pamodzi ndi mtima umodzi. Tiyende pamoza na mtima umo. I like the song.

In Unity: The leader says, we are all Malawians. The preacher says we
are all children of God created by God. An individual you and me say, we
are next door neighbours.
