The chief guest was Mr Michael Choi, Parliamentary Secretary for Natural Resources, Water & Energy and Trade. Mr Anton Swan, Honorary Consul read the New Year message sent by Ms Sashikala Premawardhane, Acting High Commissioner for Sri Lanka. The celebrations started with the traditional practices of lighting of the oil lamp to the beat of Magul Bera, boiling of milk, drumming of rabana and serving of rasakevili (kavun, kokis, bibikkan). Mrs Prabha Harvey was invited to boil the pot of milk, a tradition observed for thousands of years in Sri Lanka. These were followed by a colourful cultural concert which included both Low Country and Up Country dances, Bharatha dance and modern dances performed by children of various ages. A group of children presented a traditional drumming performance where they displayed their talents of playing Gatebera, Thammattam, Dhawula, Cymbal, Flute and Conch shell. Ms Shilani Piyasena was the compere for the night and has to be congratulated for a job well done. Our thanks go to Dr Sagarika Attuduwage, Mrs Amara ratnayake, Mrs Jayanthi Tennakoon for choreographing and co-ordinating the dances and Lumani & Vinuri Edirisinghe for presenting the Bharatha Natyam Dr Palitha Wickremasinghe did a fantastic job with the floral arrangements and has to be commended.

  • Features White Flour and Are at High Risk for Dia- Betes
    10 Wednesday 27th October, 2010 The Island Features white flour and are at high risk for dia- betes. If you can't handle the taste of natural garlic, you can take it in widely available supplements. Aloe vera [Komarika] is also a traditional diabetic remedy in the Unani system of Arabian medicine, and its thera- peutic characteristics are now gaining worldwide acceptance in the treatment of diabetes. According to both human and animal research studies, aloe vera lowers blood glucose levels by a mechanism that’s still unclear to researchers. According to the Clinicians Handbook of Natural Healing, this natural hypoglycemic effect extends to over a period of 24 hours. Adding onions to your diet (along with gar- lic and cinnamon) can also significantly reduce your blood sugar level. Additionally, according to the book: The Healing Power of Herbs, studies have demonstrated that ginseng controls blood glucose in both dia- betic humans and diabetic laboratory ani- mals. It all comes down to asking if putting yourself at risk for diabetic coma, blind- ness, limb amputation and death is it worth eating white bread. If you're willing to risk your quality-of-life and your life itself, then go ahead and eat all the foods made with refined white flour you want. However, if you want to stop poisoning yourself with alloxan, a known toxic chem- ical, then make a few simple dietary changes. Eat groceries made with whole- grain wheat flour and other acceptable and more nutritious substitutes, not processed wheat (white) flour. What you have read so far are the unvar- nished facts about the effects of eating refined wheat (white) flour products, the most common and widespread of which is bread.
