Random posts- star wars (you can mind-move), sri lanka, firefox 3.5 release

Concerns about the situation in Sri Lanka:

The continuing concentration of over 250,000 people in the camps both blocks the search for answers to these questions, and itself constitutes a most serious crime. If the doors are not opened quickly, this will raise questions of whether the government seriously intends a restoration of Tamil society in the conquered zone. This would indeed pose a question of genocide, in the sense of the deliberate destruction of a population group in its home territory.

And the ultimate supernatural act, Siddhi, is made possible by technology (kids can do it):

Later this summer, anybody anywhere will have the ability to physically move stuff with their minds like characters do in "Star Wars." No joke.
A new toy that harnesses the same technology doctors use to monitor brain waves will arrive in stores in August. The toy moves when it senses a change in the user's brain-wave patterns.

    LTTE s killing of Rajiv, breaching indo pact by joining hands with SL govt. played a major role in the current condition of their people.

  5. It is tragic, what is happening... People are either wilfully blind or ignorantly blind... Talk about race is behind all these problems. We need someone who can rise about this issue, not someone who takes advantage of this.
