# Bodhisattva statues of Sri Lanka

Although currently a Theravada Buddhism flourishing country, the Mahayana cult of worshipping Bodhisattva statues has existed in ancient Sri Lanka. Archaeological evidences show that Bodhisattva cult had existed as a secondary cult inferior to worship of Buddha during the Anuradhapura period. This can be assumed by the surviving Bodhisattva statues.

## History

During the middle Anuradhapura period, Bodhisattva cult became very popular in Sri Lanka. In the early period, Sri Lankan Buddhism was predominantly flourished with Theravāda Buddhist ideas. Later, Mahāyāna aspects were developed. In the Mahayana Buddhism, Bodhisattvas were worshipped with a major significance. During the Anuradhapura period it is mentioned that, King Mahāsēna had built Bodhisattva images. Also King Dhatusena (459–477 CE) had built a statue of Maitreya. Several inscriptions mentioning Avalokitesvara has found from the Anuradhapura period.
During 7th–10th centuries AD, Mahayana Buddhism had spread along the Sri Lankan territory. This is evidenced by many surviving Bodhisattva statues and carvings belonging to the period. It is mentioned that King Dappula I of Anuradhapura had built a 15 cubits-high Maitreya image in Ruhuna. This image is believed to be the recently restored Dambegoda Bodhisattva statue. This is an evidence for the strong Maitreya cult in ancient Sri Lanka.
King Bhuwanekabāhu IV of Gampola has built Maitreya and Nātha (Avalokitesvara) statues in Lankatilaka Vihara. It is mentioned that King Kirti Sri Rajasinghe had built a Maitreya image in Ridi Viharaya. Dambulu Viahara thudapatha, a text dated to1780 CE mentions about some Maitreya and Nātha images of the temple. These images can be seen flanking the standing Buddha near the central entrance of Dambulla cave temple.

## Types

Both male and female Bodhisattva images has found from Sri Lanka. Avalokitesvara images play a significant role among the statuary. Also various statues of Tārā, the wife of Avalokitesvara has found. It is assumed that cult of Tārā may have been popular in ancient Sri Lanka. Images of Maitreya are also common. Statues of Bodhisattvas Vajrapani and Manjushri has found in Sri Lanka.
Bronze, stone and ivory has used as the medium to create Bodhisattva images.

## Examples

The Veheragala Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, currently displayed at Colombo National Museum, is considered as the finest Bodhisattva image ever found in Sri Lanka. This bronze statue belonging to Anuradhapura period is delicately designed. Also the Statue of Tara, which is now housed in British Museum is considered as a masterpiece of Sri Lankan art. This image was originally found in Trincomalee district, Sri Lanka. The 33-foot (10 m) high Dambegoda Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva statue is also famous. Statues of Avalokitesvara, Maitreya, Manjushri and Tara can be seen at Buduruwagala. Kushtharajagala Bodhisattva statue of Weligama is another example for Sri Lankan Bodhisattva images. Another fine Tara image can be seen at Colombo National Museum. This statue of Seated Tara was found from Kurunegala district. It is dated to 8th–9th century AD.

# Gevokizumab

Gevokizumab is an experimental monoclonal antibody, developed by XOMA Corporation, with allosteric modulating properties. Gevokizumab binds to interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, and downmodulates the cellular signaling events that produce inflammation. IL-1 beta has been implicated in cardiovascular conditions, lung cancer, and auto-inflammatory diseases.
On August 25, 2017, XOMA Corporation licensed the global commercial rights to gevokizumab to Novartis. Under the license agreement, Novartis will have worldwide rights to gevokizumab, and will be solely responsible for the development and commercialization of antibodies and products containing antibodies arising from gevokizumab.

# Polydiscia deuterosminthurus

Polydiscia deuterosminthurus is a species of mite recently discovered in the autonomous community of Navarre in Spain.
Only the six-legged larval stage is so far known. This lives as a parasite on the springtail Deuterosminthurus bisetosus, which was discovered at the same time as the parasite. The association between the two species only seems to last for a few weeks in May and June. Both creatures appear to be entirely restricted to a single host plant at this stage of their life cycle: the broom Genista hispanica.
These red mites are tiny, less than 0.3 mm in length but are huge in comparison to their hosts, averaging a third of the length of Deuterosminthurus bisetosus, to which they attach piggyback-fashion, the jaws embedded in the joint between head and prothorax. The remainder of the life cycle of this mite remains a total mystery.

| The Rolling Stone Album Guide | |
Ghost Writer is the second solo album by Garland Jeffreys, released by A&M Records in 1977. It was recorded with an all-star lineup of session musicians, including Dr. John, The Brecker Brothers, Anthony Jackson, Steve Gadd, Hugh McCracken, David Spinozza, and Leon Pendarvis. Alongside the tracks specially recorded for the album, it includes Jeffreys' earlier song "Wild in the Streets", recorded with Dr. John and his band and released as a single by Atlantic Records in 1973.
The album peaked at No. 140 on the Billboard 200.

## Critical reception

AllMusic wrote that the album "covers a lot of ground in ten songs, but it never gets lost on its whirlwind ride around the city, and if it became a cult item rather than a mainstream success, anyone who gives this a fair hearing is likely to conclude it's the work of an artist of the first order." The Boston Globe called it "a classic of the era, with hints of doo-wop, easy skanking, and even a little disco, all scuffed up with bankruptcy-era New York City grit."
The album led Rolling Stone to name Jeffreys the "Best New Artist" of 1977.

# Politechnika Warszawska PW-3 Bakcyl

The Politechnika Warszawska PW-3 Bakcyl (Microbe) is a Polish primary glider developed from the PW-2 Gapa.

## Design and development

The Bakcyl is a two seat development of the single seat PW-2 Gapa primary trainer from 1985. The main improvements were the addition of Frise ailerons and an enclosed cabin for pupil and instructor. The wingspan was increased by 33% and, overall, the changes doubled the empty weight. Despite this and the two occupants, bungee launches remained possible and, with the increased weight, the best glide angle improved by 25%.
Over most of the span the two-part wings of the Bakcyl have constant chord and forward sweep but their long tips are trapezoidal, with sweep on their leading edges. Forward sweep has often been employed on two seat gliders to position the rear seat over the centre of gravity, so the aircraft can be flown solo from the front seat without re-trimming; an early example is the Schleicher Ka 2 Rhönschwalbe. Largely constructed of glassfibre, it is built around a single spar with a glassfibre-covered D-box ahead of it and is fabric covered behind the spar. The wings are braced to the fuselage with a single, broad-chord strut on each side. Originally these struts could pivot through 90° to act as airbrakes, as on the PW-2, but they were later replaced with upper surface spoilers, inboard of the ailerons and positioned immediately behind the spars.
The glass-epoxy composite fuselage is in two parts, a forward cabin which ends with a fairing under the wing trailing edge and a slender, square section tailboom just below the wing. Occupants sit in tandem, the student forward and their instructor under the leading edge. A long, one-piece canopy reaches back to the rear seat which has a short, fixed glazed extension under the wing. The Bakcyl lands on a fixed, fully exposed monowheel under the forward fuselage, aft of mid-chord, which has a shock absorber and a brake. A smaller nosewheel and plywood skid complete the landing gear.
The Bakcyl's tail is conventional and similar to that of the PW-2, with a rectangular plan, canvas-covered tailplane mounted on top of the end of the tailboom and carrying a one-piece, narrow-chord elevator. Its fin and rudder, well forward of the elevator, are trapezoidal.

## Operational history

The only Bakcyl first flew on 14 August 1988, followed by a period of flight testing. When this concluded the Bakcyl was used by the Bieszczadzki Aeroclub in Łódź and may still be active.
