Velu Pulle`s fate
Tuesday, 4 November 2008 - 2:31 PM SL Time
|
Some Tamil Astrologer has predicted that Velu Pulle`s Horoscope is VERY bad, starting from tommorow..
Even if that is not true, this is the fate awaiting for Thalaivar Velu Pulle PIG!
===================================================================
Mussolini and his mistress Clara Petacci were caught by Italian communist partisans on April 27, 1945, near the village of Dongo (Lake Como), as they headed for Switzerland to board a plane to escape to German controlled Austria. Mussolini had been travelling with retreating German forces and was apprehended while attempting to escape recognition by wearing a German military uniform. After several unsuccessful attempts to take them to Como, they were brought to Mezzegra. They spent their last night in the house of the De Maria family.

TamilMutt.com claims that LTTP has sunk a SLN hovercraft
Saturday, 1 November 2008 - 12:33 PM SL Time
|
In June 1998 the ABS M10 LSC (Logistic Supply Craft) successfully passed UK acceptance by its customer, the Sri-Lanka Navy with 50+ knots fully laden showing a performance significantly above target. Production was subcontracted to Vosper Thornycroft Ltd.
The Hovercraft is used for Logistic Supply purposes. Whereas with conventional vessels, the Navy had to circumnavigate the entire Island of Sri-Lanka to travel to its north, the ABS M10 can shortcut the route over Adam`s Bridge (a human built access to the Indian subcontinent) which means a significant time-saving.

My perception of Tamils Part I
Tuesday, 30 September 2008 - 7:03 PM SL Time
|
By Dr. Mala Amarasinghe www.lankajournal.org
Eternal complaint of Tamils, especially those who write to blogs, over minorities being treated second class citizens in Sri Lanka, made me to question my own conscience for its true image of Tamils. Naturally I hate Tamil terrorists and those who support them, irrespective of whether they are Tamils, Sinhalese or Muslims.
I rebuked my learned Sinhalese friends who talked high about military might of LTTE and ingenious war strategies of Pirabaharan. I saw my friends unpatriotic with a colonial mindset of backwardness and besides, selfish, gullible and low material. They spread the word of Tamil military superiority, just by gauging the number of people they killed, ranging from unarmed civilians, children and women, who travel in buses and trains and work their fields in villages, to ministers and heads of states and also the mayhem they created on ground.

Maddona in Prayer.

Maddona in Prayer is a work of Italian painter Sassoferrato (Giovanni Batista Salvi) 1640-50 period. Sassorerrato was a master of pious divotional images. Madonna in Prayer is a classic example of Catholic Church`s ehamphasis during the Counter Reformation on reaffirming devotion to Mother Mary.
I took this picture at the Gallery it was hung. Truely mesmerised by the sheer beauty of the picture!!! I love this picture as it shows love and devotion of a mothers_day.jsp' class=black>mother!

Frescos from Anuradhapura
Tuesday, 23 September 2008 - 6:20 PM SL Time

I am no historian, nor an art critic. I have this photograph which I took at the Anuradhapura museum. It is dated 160-130 BC. I hope people will see that there are even pre-Seegiriya art still found in Sri Lanka.
If you happen to go to Thivanka Pilimageya of Anuradhapura, you could see the frescos of Sasa Jathakaya, belonging to same era!!
