Nice weekend folks ! :)

Vavuniya is the sort of place you go on the way to somewhere else. Though it`s in the centre-north of Sri Lanka - a bindi on the country`s forehead - it has the hallmarks of a border town, with trucks churning dust and policemen multiplying like mosquitoes.

Away to the south are Sri Lanka`s famous tea plantations and sun-kissed ruins, Anuradhapura, and palm-fringed beaches such as Tangalle.

Above Vavuniya, all the way to Jaffna on the country`s ravaged peninsula, is a great green terra incognita.

In the wake of Faculty Board refusing to admit nine fee paying students to the Peradeniya Medical Faculty, lecturers have asked the Higher Education Ministry to stop the controversial move and ensure that students are admitted only in keeping with the University Grants Commission criteria.

Addressing a media conference at the Colombo University Faculty Club, President of the Federation of University Teachers` Associations, Dr. Nirmal Ranjith Dewasiri said that the government had already planned to admit fee paying students, not only to the Peradeniya University, but also to the Rajarata Medical Faculty.

Dr Vivek Jawali, chief cardiovascular surgeon along with his team at Wockhardt Heart Hospital at Bangalore have set a global benchmark by performing the first coronary bypass surgery along with an aortic valve replacement without using general anaesthesia or ventilator support while the patient was on a heart lung machine.The technique of high thoracic epidural analgesia is a highly precision based methodology which involves injection of micro doses of local anaesthetic in the epidural space around the spinal cord which anaesthetises only the chest region while the rest of the system is fully awake.

It`s not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy
You`re still young, that`s your fault,
There`s so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down, if you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old but I`m happy
2. I was once like you are now
And I know that it`s not easy
To be calm when you`ve found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot, why think of everything you`ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow but you dreams may not

One of my favourite places on Earth. Friendly people, rich in culture
