No food, just pills in Michael Jackson’s stomach: Report
LONDON: The leaked autopsy details of Michael Jackson show that the pop icon was a virtual skeleton as he was barely eating and only had pills in
his stomach when he died, according to a new report. ( Watch )
According to the detailed autopsy reported by The Sun, Jackson was bald, bruised and had broken ribs. Singer's hips, thighs and shoulders were riddled with needle wounds which are said to be result of injections of narcotic painkillers, given three times a day for years.
Experts found that the harrowing details of Jackson's deteriorating health while investigating his sudden death in Los Angeles on Thursday.
The examination showed that the star had plunged to a "severely emaciated" state. It also said that anorexic Jackson had been eating just one meager meal a day.
Pathologists found that his stomach was empty and only had partially-dissolved pills which he took before the painkiller injection which stopped his heart.
The report also claimed that the pop star was wearing a wig when he died and pathologists said that a little more than "peach fuzz" covered his scalp.
A scarred section of skin above his left ear was entirely bald which is said to be the result of a 1984 accident when his hair caught fire while shooting an ad for Pepsi.
According to the newspaper, Jackson also suffered several broken ribs as rescuers pumped his chest after he collapsed in cardiac arrest.
Four injection wounds were found above or near to Jackson's heart. All appeared to have resulted from attempts to pump adrenaline directly into the organ in a failed bid to restart it.
Three of the injections had penetrated the heart wall causing damage but a fourth missed and hit one of the 50-year-old singer's ribs.
The autopsy also found unexplained bruises on Jackson's knees and on the fronts of both shins. There are also said to be cuts on his back, indicating a recent fall.
The King of Pop's face bore many plastic surgery scars, while the bridge to his nose had vanished and its right side had partially collapsed.
As the investigation of Jackson's death focus on his personal physician Dr Conrad Murray, a source close to the Jackson entourage said, "Michael's family and fans will be horrified when they realise the appalling state he was in. He was skin and bone, his hair had fallen out and had been eating nothing but pills when he died.
"Injection marks all over his body and the disfigurement caused by years of plastic surgery show he'd been in terminal decline for years. His doctors and the hangers-on stood by as he self-destructed. Somebody is going to have to pay," the source added.
Cardiologist Murray was thought to have given Jackson the final injection of painkiller Demerol.
Murray is said to be facing serious questions about his resuscitation attempts, which began when he started as Jackson lay unconscious on a bed. Basic first aid guidance says patients must be face-up on a hard surface before compressions.
Experts wondered that how a trained cardiologist could have made such an error, potentially wasting vital minutes.
Additional damage was believed to have been caused by oxygen masks and tubing inserted during resuscitation attempts. However the probe also found that Jackson was recovering well from skin cancer with an operation to shave cells from his chest.

Funny press release by LTTE peace secretariat after the SLAF bombing at X-Ray base, Iranamadu
Sri Lankan news theater is full of incidents these days due to the intensified military activities all around the island. On 23rd of this month(January) SLAF bombed an LTTE base called X-Ray base in Iranamadu area. This base was believed to be the hideout of LTTE chief V. Prabhakaran, and many speculations were aroused about the fate of Prabakaran. After a dead silence of about 9 to 10 hours LTTE began to talk about the bombing incident. First the military spokesman of LTTE described it as a bombing a civilian settlement. This was something always happened after every bombing raid carried out by SLAF
See this news article on Asiantribune about his comments on the bombing raid- http://www.asiantribune.com/?q=node/9264

Extensive bombing over forest areas in Kilinochchi
In three separate sorties spread over 20 hours, Sri Lankan Air Force carried out extensive bombing over Ambalahamam forest area in Kilinochchi destroying vast extents of forests.At 11.30 am and at 5.20pm on Wednesday and again at 6.45am on Thursday Sri Lankan Air Force dropped more than 16 bombs over the Ambalahama forest area damaging around 10 hectares of forest land.
The Forest Protection Division of the LTTE has undertaken extensive forest replanting in recent times. These young plants as well as many old forest plants were destroyed in this mindless bombing of the Sri Lanka military.
Speculation is strife among Kilinochchi residents about the rationale behind the bombing of forest areas which only results in the destruction of the environment.

A good fight may keep you and your marriage healthy
ANN ARBOR, University of Michigan ---A good fight with your spouse may be good for your health, research suggests.
Couples in which both the husband and wife suppress their anger when one attacks the other die earlier than members of couples where one or both partners express their anger and resolve the conflict, according to preliminary results of a University of Michigan study.
Researchers looked at 192 couples over 17 years and placed the couples into one of four categories: both partners communicate their anger; in the second and third groups one spouse expresses while the other suppresses; and both the husband and wife suppress their anger and brood, said Ernest Harburg, professor emeritus with the U-M School of Public Health and the Psychology Department, and lead author. The study is a longitudinal analysis of couples in Tecumseh, Mich.
"Comparison between couples in which both people suppress their anger, and the three other types of couples, are very intriguing," Harburg said.
When both spouses suppress their anger at the other when unfairly attacked, earlier death was twice as likely than in all other types.
"When couples get together, one of their main jobs is reconciliation about conflict," Harburg said. "Usually nobody is trained to do this. If they have good parents, they can imitate, that's fine, but usually the couple is ignorant about the process of resolving conflict. The key matter is, when the conflict happens, how do you resolve it?"
"When you don't, if you bury your anger, and you brood on it and you resent the other person or the attacker, and you don't try to resolve the problem, then you're in trouble."
Of the 192 couples studied, 26 pairs both suppressed their anger and there were 13 deaths in that group. In the remaining 166 pairs, there were 41 deaths combined.
In 27 percent of those couples who both suppressed their anger, one member of the couple died during the study period, and in 23 percent of those couples both died during the study period.
That's compared to only six percent of couples where both spouses died in the remaining three groups combined. Only 19 percent in the remaining three groups combined saw one partner die during the study period.
The study adjusted for age, smoking, weight, blood pressure, bronchial problems, breathing, and cardiovascular risk, Harburg said.
The paper only looks at attacks which are considered unfair or undeserved by the person being attacked, said Harburg. If the attack is viewed as fair, say an abused child or woman who believes they deserved the attack, then the victim does not get angry, Harburg said.
Harburg stresses that these preliminary numbers are small, but the researchers are now collecting 30-year follow-up data, which will have almost double the death rate, he said.

Pyramid scam again in Sri Lanka?????
About an year ago Sri Lanka government banned a pyramid scheme in the name of GoldQuest. And recent reports indicates that it has started again using the name "Lotus Marketing".
The previous Gold Quest scheme had spread across Sri Lanka, marketing gold coins for double their worth. Sri Lanka's Central Bank noticed that the equivalent in their currency of millions of dollars had left the country, a drain of much needed currency. They also realized that many of the $400-transactions were done with credit cards and that many people were effectively loaning their cards' use to other people in order to make the offshore payments. The financial losses suffered by Sri Lankans were acute since average incomes in Sri Lanka are under $1,500 per household.
But at that time Sri Lanka took extraordinary measures to stop the flow of currency and the personal losses to citizens. Its Central Bank applied a law that prohibits the loaning of credit card usage and it persuaded local banks to stop facilitating transactions involving the scheme. The president of Sri Lanka issued a national warning to the citizens to beware of the scheme's folly and pledged support for new laws to prohibit pyramid schemes in the marketplace.
The National warning issued against Pyramid Schemes by Central Bank of Sri Lanka.

The Lotus Marketing in Sri Lanaka has opened their new office at No. 209/10 SSS Best Bulb Building, 2nd Floor Union Place, Colombo 02. They have started selling a range of new products like Bio Disk, Pendent etc...(This time not Gold Coins). It is said that this scam tooo belongs to QuestNet and few training seminars also had been held in one of the Hotels in Sri Lanka. Go to www.questnet.com or www.lotus-mktg.com to check there products. QuestNet is an illegal company in Sri Lanka and that's why they have registered them selves in a new name. Now Some sales representatives have already started their businesses and few other small scale training seminars had also been held in some part of the country.
There are rumors indicating that some high ranking government officers are also behind this scam.
So please be aware of this new development and be vigilant.
