    The High Priest of the Thirukoneswaram Hindu Temple in Trincomalee, Sivasri Kugarajah Kurukkal was shot down by unidentified gunmen at Vidyalayam Road in the town of Trincomalee yesterday around 6.00 p.m.  The 43 year old priest was riding a motorbike when he was shot. Verwelkte roos

    The priest had received two bullets on his head and according to police report he died instantly.

    Thirukoanesvaram Temple is located inside the Fort Frederick, where the Trincomalee Government Agent's office and the Gajaba Regiment of the Sri Lanka Army are located.

    Sivashri Kugaraja Kurrukal had been the High Priest of one of the oldest Saiva Temple, ThiruKonesvaram for the last five years and according to the Media Centre for National Security (MCNS) he was highly respected by the Hindus as well as other religious communities living in the area. He had been maintaining a very cordial relationship with the law enforcement authorities in the district and had performed a great service in building peace and harmony among the different communities.

    As u all know i want to go back to Sri Lanka, but as long as these killings are there my husband dont agree with me.

    Common sense...over feelings....

    God bless , Sivasri Kugarajah Kurukkal

    Blind

    A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.
     
    A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
     
    Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'

    The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.'
    What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'
    Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
    Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?
     Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

    Strings of explosions in Delhi kills 14 & injures more than 40.

    At least fourteen people have been killed and more than 40 injured when five explosions rocked various places in New Delhi today evening. Police and witnesses said two went off in dustbins in and around Connaught Place, a shopping and dining area popular with tourists and locals in the centre of the city. Others exploded in busy markets around the city, within minutes of each other.

    The blasts struck within about an hour of each other within a six-mile (10 km) radius. The blasts at Ghaffar market in Karol Bagh, at Connaught Place and Greater Kailash took place in a quick succession, police said. In Barakhamba Road, one of the bombs was suspected to be placed near Nirmal tower. Another blast in the CP took place near Gopal Das Bhavan and another in central park

    Once upon a time on planet earth

     
    In 2007 Ron Modro ( the founder)  started with a project  that became a world wide adventure
     
                                     ONCE UPON A TIME ON PLANET EARTH
     
    I quote his words
     
    in January 2007, I wanted to find a venue to exploit the Internet as a force of global change for peace and understanding. How could we use the blogosphere to change and help re-shape governmental policy? How can the Internet influence the biggest issues of our time?

    This process lead to the birth of “ONCE UPON A TIME ON PLANET EARTH” which began on a small scale on my blog MOROCCAN DREAMS and has blossomed into a global effort. The project is designed to explore the ordinariness of daily life, which apparently seems otherworldly to world leaders who are unable and/or unwilling to responsibly sit down at the negotiating table to settle their differences.

    I give u the link of the beautiful  web site ONCE UPON A TIME ON PLANET EARTH.

    http://www.littlebookofman.org/

    AS I AM ONE OF THE FOTOGRAPHERS I FEEL  HONOURED TO SEE MY NAME THERE. ( U can find me on Chapter two..........................)

    First challenge was on  august 6 2007  the atomic bombs on Hiroshima 1945.

    And now  We remember 9/11

    I wish all  my  fellow fotographers goodluck making a significant pic..with strong words.

    And also a Thumbs  Up for Ron....We gonna make it... Rode roos

    and these last months  im confronted with a lot of so called  LAST MAILS. ( I invented this word haha)
    Mails like  
    ohhhh  i cant stay in contact with u coz my fiance would not accept  friendship with another female. Ohhhh  ..
    It seems that even when he  turns his head, when he sees another woman she will cut off his balls   
     ( sorry for the  sex words)
    and he will be in serieus trouble.
    and then i start to think, what is the meaning of this?  im still thinking Denkend  Cant find  a reason.
    but i feel sorry  coz friendships of so many years ........ gone.Verwelkte roos
