Socio-religious desegregation in an immediate postwar town Jaffna, Sri Lanka Delon MADAVAN PhD candidate and Junior Lecturer in Geography Université Paris-IV Sorbonne Laboratoire Espaces, Nature et Culture (UMR 8185) [email protected] Abstract The cease-fire agreement of 2002 between the Sri Lankan state and the separatist movement of Liberalisation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), was an opportunity to analyze the role of war and then of the cessation of fighting as a potential process of transformation of the segregation at Jaffna in the context of immediate post-war period. Indeed, the armed conflict (1987-2001), with the abolition of the caste system by the LTTE and repeated displacements of people, has been a breakdown for Jaffnese society. The weight of the hierarchical castes system and the one of religious communities, which partially determine the town's prewar population distribution, the choice of spouse, social networks of individuals, values and taboos of society, have been questioned as a result of the conflict.

Sea Cucumber Pen Culture in the Northern Province of Sri Lanka U
190 Sea Cucumber Pen Culture in the Northern Province of Sri Lanka U. Mallikarachchi†, M.A.J.C. Mallawa Arachchi and K. Arulanandan National Aquatic Resources Research and Development Agency, Sri Lanka †[email protected] Abstract: Worldwide increased demand for beche-de-mer encouraged overexploitation of wild stocks of tropical sea cucumbers and it has created motivation to sea cucumber aquaculture. Capture based sea cucumber aquaculture is completely a new experience to Sri Lanka. This research aimed to develop pen culture techniques for sea cucumbers and to familiarize fishing communities on sea cucumber aquaculture in Sri Lanka. Three pens were constructed in Gurunagar and Navanthurai lagoon area and one was constructed in the sea area at Mandaithivu in Jaffna district. Pens were constructed by using PVC net, blue shade net and with coconut planks. The size of each pen was 25m25m. Holthuria scabra juveniles were collected and the net pens were stocked at a density of two individual m-2. The water temperature and salinity were measured in weekly intervals. The average water temperature remained in 300C in all three sites. The bottom water salinity in Navanthurai site varied from 380C to 390C and other two sites shown similar salinity variation between 340C to 350C. The organic carbon content in Gurunagar, Navanthurai and in Mandathivu were 1.07%, 1.5% and 2.18% respectively. In the first four months the growth rates of Holothuria scabra at Gurunagar, Navanthurai and Mandaitheevu were 0.66gd-1, 0.96gd-1 and 1.23gd-1. The highest growth rate shown by juveniles stocked in Mandathivu and lowest growth rate shown in Gurunagar site.

Characterization of Irrigation Water Quality of Chunnakam Aquifer in Jaffna Peninsula
Tropical Agricultural Research Vol. 23 (3): 237 – 248 (2012) Characterization of Irrigation Water Quality of Chunnakam Aquifer in Jaffna Peninsula A. Sutharsiny, S. Pathmarajah1*, M. Thushyanthy2 and V. Meththika3 Postgraduate Institute of Agriculture University of Peradeniya Sri Lanka ABSTRACT. Chunnakam aquifer is the main lime stone aquifer of Jaffna Peninsula. This study focused on characterization of Chunnakam aquifer for its suitability for irrigation. Groundwater samples were collected from wells to represent different uses such as domestic, domestic with home garden, public wells and farm wells during January to April 2011. Important chemical parameters, namely electrical conductivity (EC), chloride, calcium, magnesium, carbonate, bicarbonate, sulfate, sodium and potassium were determined in water samples from 44 wells. Sodium percentage, Sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), and residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC) levels were calculated using standard equations to map the spatial variation of irrigation water quality of the aquifer using GIS. Groundwater was classified based on Chadha diagram and US salinity diagram. Two major hydro chemical facies Ca-Mg-Cl-SO4 and Na-Cl-SO4 were identified using Chadha diagram. Accordingly, it indicates permanent hardness and salinity problems. Based on EC, 16 % of the monitored wells showed good quality and 16 % showed unsuitable water for irrigation. Based on sodium percentage, 7 % has excellent and 23 % has doubtful irrigation water quality. However, according to SAR and RSC values, most of the wells have water good for irrigation. US salinity hazard diagram showed, 16 % as medium salinity and low alkali hazard. These groundwater sources can be used to irrigate all types of soils with little danger of increasing exchangeable sodium in soil.

PTC Course Report, Jaffna, Jan 2004
Primary Trauma Care Course, Jaffna, Sri Lanka January 20 th 22 nd 2004 Purpose of the visit To visit Jaffna in Northern Sri Lanka to teach a PTC course and Instructor course, prior to the attendance of the instructors and others at the Scientific Sessions of the College of Anaesthesiologists of Sri Lanka, whose focus was on Trauma. Executive summary A team of 3 instructors from the UK were joined by Professor Rebecca Jacob from South India and Dr Shirani Hapuarachchi from Colombo to teach the course. The local coordinators had selected twenty doctors from the Jaffna and the Northern province of Sri Lanka, who would form the nucleus of the future instructor body in that region. A two day PTC course and subsequent one day instructor course were run, with in addition a half day BLS training session run in parallel to the morning of the Instructor course. Presentations at the Plenary Sessions of the College of Anaesthetists introduced PTC to a wider audience of several hundred and this was enthusiastically received. Over the past year the PTC programme has been extensively adopted in Sri Lanka and this has also impacted very substantially at a much broader level on Trauma management as a whole in the country. Background In January 2003 a joint approach was made to PTC headquarters by the Colleges of Anaesthesiologists and Surgeons of Sri Lanka for a PTC course and instructor course to be run in Colombo associated with the Annual Scientific Sessions of the Sri Lankan College of Anaesthesiologists. This proved very successful as further outlined below, and following this two of the 2003 instructors, James de Courcy and Sarah Bakewell, were invited back to speak (on subjects other than PTC) to the 2004 Sessions.

Abstract Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the main causes for mortality and morbidity in both develop and developing countries throughout the world. CHD had claimed nearly 7.4 million deaths worldwide according to WHO in 2015. Welle’s syndrome is now being increasingly recognized as a distinct entity causing acute coronary syndrome. The syndrome is due to critical narrowing of proximal left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Identification of this syndrome is paramount important because this is a preinfarction stage of CHD that often progresses to a devastating anterior myocardial infarction within a mean time of 8.5 days . We report a 62 year old recently diagnosed, well controlled diabetic gentleman who presented with ischemic type of chest pain with normal ECG and normal cardiac biomarkers on admission, found to have Welle’s syndrome.
