Synopsis

The great displacement that occurred in 1996 Sri Lanka shook the foundations of many people’s lives. Kavari was one of the victims. Kethees loved her, faced challenges, and tried to overcome them. But the circumstances of that time led to misunderstandings.

Eventually, they overcame everything and fulfilled their parents’ dream by getting married.

---

Treatment

Kanthasamy, father of Kavari, was a contractor in their hometown. They were doing well, but they lost their property and wealth during the displacement in 1996. When they returned home as the peace talks started, Kavari lost one of her legs and her mother to landmines near their house entrance. As she used a Jaipur Leg for a long time, she did not appear disabled. But Kanthasamy became a heart patient.

Later, with some help from distant relatives, Kavari and her father shifted their lives to Negombo. As Kavari had attended a sewing training course organized by an NGO during their displacement, she was able to earn some income for the family. Kanthasamy became an active land broker, and Kavari worked in a tailor shop. Together, father and daughter developed themselves with the help of their knowledge and friends.

After years of hard work, Kanthasamy bought a three-wheeler on lease with the bank manager’s recommendation. He became a three-wheeler driver as well as continuing land brokering. He was known as KK, “Kaani Kanthasamy.” The vehicle also helped with his daughter’s transport.

Katheeswaran, called Kethees, was 30 years old but looked younger. He worked in a textile shop as a salesperson in Negombo town. Kethees lived with his parents; his father was a retired mathematics teacher, and his mother was a housewife. In his mind, Kethees dreamed of owning his own textile business. His ability and interest in business encouraged his boss, Sundaram, the shop owner, to support him. Kethees often visited Colombo with his boss, sometimes alone, for business purposes.

In the late 1990s, Sundaram decided to expand his business into ready-made and tailor-made garment manufacturing. While developing this idea, Kethees met Kavari. As she was hardworking and active, she caught his interest. They became friends—business friends and family friends.

Later, Kethees learned about her disability and her family situation. He helped her start her own tailor shop and arranged for her products to be sold in Sundaram’s shop.

One day, Kethees expressed his love for her. Initially, Kavari pretended to accept his love, but later she said she had no intention of marrying and that her father meant everything to her. Kethees became sad and hopeless, and his performance at work declined. Sundaram noticed and discussed it with him. With his boss’s encouragement, Kethees decided to speak to KK.

When Kethees talked to Kanthasamy about his love for Kavari, KK respected his feelings but gave him a challenge: Kethees must own a house before marrying Kavari. If he could do that, KK promised to convince his daughter. Kethees agreed and promised not to disturb them until he owned a house. But Kavari knew nothing of this arrangement, even as her feelings for Kethees deepened.

Kethees discussed the matter with his boss, who agreed to help him financially and look after Kethees’s family for a while. Kethees then left Negombo for Colombo.

During the peace talks, property development in the capital boomed as many migrated Sri Lankans wished to invest. Numerous flats were being constructed in and around Colombo. With his business talent and textile contacts, Kethees decided to supply curtain materials to the new flats. Thanks to his pricing, wide range, and quality, he became a known supplier to leading companies and property developers.

Meanwhile, Kavari and KK were also doing well and learned of Kethees’s progress. Kethees had selected a house with land and updated Sundaram, who informed KK that Kethees might marry soon. KK began expecting Kethees’s visit.

However, at the same time, Kethees’s father fell ill. To care for his parents, Kethees moved to Dehiwala, postponing his house purchase. KK, upset by the missed visit, believed that Kethees had abandoned his daughter because of her disability. He grew ill from worry.

Eventually, Kethees resumed his house search and located a property in Wattala. But before he could finalize it, KK suffered another heart attack and was admitted to Negombo hospital. The day Kethees came to speak to KK, doctors had already advised transferring him to Colombo. KK was taken by ambulance while Kethees followed later by van. Their vehicles crossed, but neither realized.

When Kethees reached Negombo, neighbors told him KK had been moved to Colombo. On his way back, he met Kanesh, who wrongly claimed KK had promised his daughter to a Colombo textile businessman, and that Kavari’s love for a local man had caused conflict and KK’s heart attack. Heartbroken, Kethees returned to Colombo, refusing to meet KK or Kavari.

At the hospital, doctors required funds for KK’s bypass surgery. After deep thought, Kavari contacted Kethees for help. Understanding the situation, Kethees provided the money without conditions. The operation succeeded.

KK later sold his three-wheeler to repay Kethees. When they visited Kethees’s home, his parents revealed how much hope he had placed on KK and Kavari, and how devastated he was by the misunderstanding. After clarifying the truth, everyone realized the mistake and set out to find Kethees.

They found him at the house he had planned to buy, just after he had canceled the booking. There, the truth was revealed to him.

Kethees married Kavari. He bought land in Wattala, and both families attended the house foundation ceremony together.

How CSS class attributes have to be ordered

How to order a CSS class attributes.

The poll result of http://css-tricks.com/poll-results-how-do-you-order-your-css-properties/ shows many uses or suggest to order them by Randomly or Grouped by type.
But here is my point, when you have number of attributed stacking up, there are changes for attributes to get duplicate. see the following example

.selector {
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 10;
    top: 0;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    padding: 10px;
    border: 10px solid #333;
    margin: 10px;
    background: #000;
    color: #fff;
    font-size: 16px;
    text-align: right;
    display: inline-block;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 10px;
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

Padding is duplicated on the above sample, which is bit difficult to find it out. So Randomly is a bad habit.

My selection will be Alphabetic, where you got to know A-Z to sort them up and will easily out the above issue.

.selector {
    background: #000;
    border: 10px solid #333;
    bottom: 0;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    color: #fff;
    display: inline-block;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 16px;
    height: 100px;
    left: 0;
    margin: 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 10px;
    padding: 10px;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0;
    text-align: right;
    top: 0;
    width: 100px;
    z-index: 10;
}

Yes, as sampled here https://github.com/necolas/idiomatic-css#format, grouping by type is cool. But I still recommend to sort by name with in the group.
So my finals will be


.selector {
    /* Positioning */
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0;
    top: 0;
    z-index: 10;
   
    /* Display & Box Model */
    border: 10px solid #333;
    box-sizing: border-box;
    display: inline-block;
    height: 100px;
    margin: 10px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 10px;
    width: 100px;
   
    /* Other */
    background: #000;
    color: #fff;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 16px;
    text-align: right;
}


I have no plan to discuss about Line length here as its the baddest way, I think.

24 Hours of Australia - The Book

On 2010 Feb 3rd, I have been to Brisbane city council library on the next week of my arrival, rather than talk about the library now I wish to mention about a a book. I have red, seen and heard about many books but I do remember some of them only. May be those are the ones impressed me, a lot.

I wish to make a record of a book here, 01.01.2000 – 24 Hours of Australia. This is a collection of photographs around thousand numbers by may be two hundred Australia's leading photographers. The specialty of the photos are they have been taken between mid-night 31 December 1999 to mid night of 1 January 2000, yes on the millennium day; the first day of this 20th century.

What an idea, its actually sponsored by Fuji Films. As you think it contains photos from party, fun, celebration, events, people, hope, diving, underwater, recreational activities and happiness. Although contains floods, accidents, deaths, injuries, eyes with expectation, a doctor on his way by an aircraft while speaking to the patient over the phone until he reach him as so many. Because for the nature it is just another day.

A better way to show, Unfortunately Java script is disable in your Browser

Introduction

For better user experience and for great user interface .. bla bla ...
Enabling JavaScript is A must on each websites.(period)

Scenario

Let me point out the issues on notifying the visitor to enable JavaScript if that is disabled on the current browser.
There are enough sites pop-up to guide you when you Google it.

But let me walk you through the tricks of handling it.

1. We should be able to place a text on the web page it self. as follows

Unfortunately JavaScript is disable in your Browser. We suggest you enable JavaScript for a better web experience.

2. But we need ti display this message only when the JavaScript is disabled

<noscript>
    Unfortunately Javascript is disable in your Browser. We suggest you enable java script for a better web experience.
</noscript>

3. Ok, where do we need to place this snip on the html. Yes, with in the <body>, But placing it at the top is not a good idea for SEO. So place it at the bottom, but before </body> tag.
4. But we need to hilight this piece of text and show up on the browser, here we need css to come in.
4.1 First lets add a <div > to the text
<noscript>
    <div id="noscript">
        Unfortunately Javascript is disable in your Browser. We suggest you enable Javascript for a better web experience.
    </div>
</noscript>
4.2 Now we need css to target #noscript to show up this.
#noscript {
    clear: both;
    left: 0;
    padding: 4px 10px;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: 2000;
}

4.3 If I add some colours to this, then
#noscript {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #000;
    clear: both;
    color: yellow;
    font-weight: bold;
    left: 0;
    padding: 4px 10px;
    position: absolute;
    text-align: center;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: 2000;
}

5. Cool, but we need to hide this again if javascript is enabled, let use js to hide this when document is ready

<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#noscript').hide();
    });
</script>


6. Enjoy

10 Laws of Productivity

You might think that creatives as diverse as Internet entrepreneur Jack Dorsey, industrial design firm Studio 7.5, and bestselling Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami would have little in common.

In fact, the tenets that guide how they – and exceptionally productive creatives across the board – make ideas happen are incredibly similar. Here are 10 laws of productivity we’ve consistently observed among serial idea executors:

1. Break the seal of hesitation.

A bias toward action is the most common trait we’ve found across the hundreds of creative professionals and entrepreneurs we’ve interviewed. While preparing properly as you start a new project is certainly valuable, it’s also easy to lose yourself in planning (and dreaming) indefinitely. We must challenge ourselves to take action sooner rather than later. The minute that you start acting (e.g. building a physical prototype, sharing a nascent concept with your community), you start getting valuable feedback that will help refine your original idea – and move forward with a more informed perspective.

2. Start small.

When our ideas are still in our head, we tend to think big, blue sky concepts. The downside is that such thinking makes the barrier to entry – and action – quite high. To avoid “blue sky paralysis,” pare your idea down to a small, immediately executable concept. Can you trial the idea of a multi-day festival with a smaller performance series? Take an idea for a skyscraper and model it in miniature? Work out the flow of an iPhone app by sketching on paper? Once you’ve road-tested your idea on a small scale, you’ll have loads more insight on how to take it to the next level.

3. Protoype, prototype, prototype.

Trial and error is an essential part of any creative’s life. As Ze Frank says, usually when we execute an idea for the first time, it kinda sucks. The important thing is to synthesize the knowledge gained during the process to refine the idea, and create a new-and-improved version. Serial idea-makers like Jack Dorsey, Ben Kaufman, and Studio 7.5 all attest: Prototyping and iteration is key to transforming a so-so idea into a game-changing product. Rather than being discouraged by your “failures,” listen closely and learn from them. Then build a new prototype. Then do it again. Sooner or later, you’ll hit gold. To avoid ‘blue sky paralysis,’ pare your idea down to a small, immediately executable concept.

4. Create simple objectives for projects, and revisit them regularly.

When working on in-depth projects, we generate lots of new ideas along the way. This can lead to a gradual expansion of the project’s goals, or “scope creep.” This insidious habit can make it impossible to ever really complete anything. The best way to avoid it is to write down a simple statement summarizing your objective at the start of each project. (If you have collaborators, make sure there is agreement about the objective.) And then – this is the part we overlook! – revisit it regularly. When scope creep starts to happen, you’ll notice.

5. Work on your project a little bit each day.

With projects that require a serious infusion of creative juice – developing a new business plan, writing a novel, or just learning a new skill – it’s incredibly important to maintain momentum. Just as when you run everyday, the exercise gets easier and easier, the same thing happens with your brain. Stimulate it regularly each day, and those juices start to flow more freely. As Jack Cheng argues in a great blog post, “Thirty Minutes A Day”: “the important thing isn’t how much you do; it’s how often you do it.”

6. Develop a routine.

Part of being able to work on your project a little bit each day is carving out the time to do so. Routines can seem boring and uninspiring, but – on the contrary – they create a foundation for sparking true insight. In his recent memoir, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, famed Japanese author Haruki Murakami writes about how a rigorous routine – rising at 5am and going to bed at 10pm every day – is crucial to his impressive creative output. (In a side note: Alex Iskold derives a series of lessons for start-up entrepreneurs from Murakami here.)

7. Break big, long-term projects into smaller chunks or “phases.”

To help manage expectations and stay motivated for year-long or even multi-year endeavors, break each project into smaller chunks that only take a few weeks or a month to complete. The dual benefit of this approach is: (1) making the project feel more manageable, and (2) providing incremental rewards throughout the project. It’s crucial to pause periodically to take stock of what has been accomplished – even if there’s a long way to go. With projects that require a serious infusion of creative juice, it’s incredibly important to maintain momentum.

8. Prune away superfluous meetings (and their attendees).

Few activities are more of a productivity drain than meetings. If you must meet (and this should be a big “if”), make sure everyone knows what needs to be accomplished from the outset. If people are present who don’t help out with achieving that objective, let them leave. Qwest COO Teresa Taylor, recently interviewed in the NYT‘s Corner Office, starts her meetings with the question, “Do we all know why we’re here?” and then follows with, “Does everyone need to be here?” To trim the runtime of internal meetings, you can also try the standing meeting.

9. Practice saying “No.”

Creative energy is not infinite. Seasoned idea-makers know that they must guard their energy – and their focus – closely. Take author Jim Collins for example. His books Built to Last and Good to Great have sold millions of copies. His business acumen and insights are in demand. Yet, “even though Collins demands over $60,000 per speech, he gives fewer than 18 per year.” More than that and Collins wouldn’t have enough time to focus on the research and writing that yield those bestselling books. When you’re in execution mode, keep in mind that “unexpected opportunities” also mean distraction from the work at hand. Saying no is an essential part of the productivity equation.

10. Remember that rules – even productivity rules – are made to be broken.

Did we say develop a routine? This and other tips here should only be followed as long as they are working. If forward motion has become impossible with your current routine, try something else. Whether it’s taking a long distance trip, popping into the art museum, walking around the block, or talking to a perfect stranger, make sure you occasionally shake up your normal routine. Breaking habits offers new perspective and helps recharge us to head back into the fray.


How About You?
Is there an idea you could break the “seal of hesitation” on and start executing right now?
Are there other rules of thumb you’ve found particularly useful for making ideas happen?

'Tsunami Bomb' - The water bomb for distruction

The United States and New Zealand conducted secret tests of a "tsunami bomb" designed to destroy coastal cities by using underwater blasts to trigger massive tidal waves. The tests were carried out in waters around New Caledonia and Auckland during the Second World War and showed that the weapon was feasible and a series of 10 large offshore blasts could potentially create a 33-foot tsunami capable of inundating a small city. The top secret operation, code-named "Project Seal", tested the doomsday device as a possible rival to the nuclear bomb. About 3,700 bombs were exploded during the tests, first in New Caledonia and later at Whangaparaoa Peninsula, near Auckland.


The plans came to light during research by a New Zealand author and film-maker, Ray Waru, who examined military files buried in the national archives. "Presumably if the atomic bomb had not worked as well as it did, we might have been tsunami-ing people," said Mr. Waru.


"It was absolutely astonishing. First that anyone would come up with the idea of developing a weapon of mass destruction based on a tsunami ... and also that New Zealand seems to have successfully developed it to the degree that it might have worked." The project was launched in June 1944 after a US naval officer, E A Gibson, noticed that blasting operations to clear coral reefs around Pacific islands sometimes produced a large wave, raising the possibility of creating a "tsunami bomb".

Waru told the UK Telegraph:

“Presumably if the atomic bomb had not worked as well as it did, we might have been tsunami-ing people,” said Mr Waru. “It was absolutely astonishing. First that anyone would come up with the idea of developing a weapon of mass destruction based on a tsunami … and also that New Zealand seems to have successfully developed it to the degree that it might have worked.”

Speed change on AVAYA voice mail system

Today I was checking the other features of AVAYA aura voice mail box system and came across the play back speed option which is really interesting.

You are free to change the play back speed of any recorded voice in your inbox, which probably help the listener in to skim  through the unread messages.

The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People

The author of  the book 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People'
Stephen Covey died today.

The 7 Habits

Independence or Self-Mastery
The First Three Habits surround moving from dependence to independence (i.e., self mastery):

Habit 1: Be Proactive

Take initiative in life by realizing that your decisions (and how they align with life's principles) are the primary determining factor for effectiveness in your life. Take responsibility for your choices and the consequences that follow.

Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind

Self-discover and clarify your deeply important character values and life goals. Envision the ideal characteristics for each of your various roles and relationships in life.

Habit 3: Put First Things First

Prioritize, plan, and execute your week's tasks based on importance rather than urgency. Evaluate whether your efforts exemplify your desired character values, propel you toward goals, and enrich the roles and relationships that were elaborated in Habit 2.

Interdependence

The next three have to do with Interdependence (i.e., working with others):

Habit 4: Think Win-Win

Genuinely strive for mutually beneficial solutions or agreements in your relationships. Value and respect people by understanding a "win" for all is ultimately a better long-term resolution than if only one person in the situation had gotten his way.

Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood

Use empathic listening to be genuinely influenced by a person, which compels them to reciprocate the listening and take an open mind to being influenced by you. This creates an atmosphere of caring, respect, and positive problem solving.

Habit 6: Synergize

Combine the strengths of people through positive teamwork, so as to achieve goals no one person could have done alone. Get the best performance out of a group of people through encouraging meaningful contribution, and modeling inspirational and supportive leadership.

Self Renewal

The Last habit relates to self-rejuvenation:

Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw

Balance and renew your resources, energy, and health to create a sustainable, long-term, effective lifestyle. It primarily emphasizes on exercise for physical renewal, prayer (mediation, yoga, etc.) and good reading for mental renewal. It also mentions service to the society for spiritual renewal.

Welcome to 'Space'

Professor Colless joins the University after a long and highly-distinguished career in astronomy, most recently as Director of the Australian Astronomical Observatory. He has published more than 230 articles which have notched up nearly 15,000 citations. Four of his papers are in the 1000 most-cited astronomy papers of all time, and since 2007 Professor Colless himself has been ranked in the top 250 most-cited researchers in space sciences in the previous 25 years.

His awards include the Professor MK Vainu Bappu Gold Medal in 1994, being a finalist in the Eureka Prize for Scientific Research in 2001 and 2002, receiving the Royal Astronomical Society Group Achievement Award in 2007 and being made an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society in 2009 for his work on galaxy structure and evolution.


One of Australia’s foremost astronomers, Professor Matthew Colless, has today been announced as the new Director of the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics at The Australian National University.

Israel, Do you mean Palestine

What will you get when you search on Google for 'Israel', yes a bunch of links which talk about the country Israel. But in an Arab fashion the result is different.

Israel, Do you mean Palestine. But here in the fashion text google, the leading search engine used to indicate the world of politicians, but just a search engine.

Two academics from ANU to the Royal Society of London

Two Australian National University academics are today been elected to the Royal Society of London, the longest standing scientific academy in the world.

Professor Brian Schmidt of the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics and Professor Hugh O’Neill, Associate Director of the Research School of Earth Sciences, are among 44 scientists from around the globe who have been honoured by the Society for their contribution to science.

Professor Schmidt was elected for his part in the discovery that the Universe is expanding at an accelerated rate; this work was also recognised with a Nobel Prize last year.

The Society elected Professor O’Neill for his contribution to the field of geology. Professor O’Neill’s work includes research into the chemical composition of the Earth and how the Earth differs from other possible planetary compositions, the origin of the Earth-Moon system, and how melting in the Earth’s mantle relates to global tectonics and Earth history.

The Facebook messenger to chat from your desktop

 

This is not the first application from facebook which is running out of the browser, even though it says Messenger, its covers the other main features from your fb account, notification messages and friend request.

 

The 'docking' function is really cool. Like the 'always on top' in other application this docking will enable the messager window always on left, so the other running application will fill and work on the rest of your screen. But still the user may need an 'always on top' behavior where the actual chat window - which pops out when you click over your friend - goes behind the other application. Also this program will show a pop-up notification when your friends 'Like' and 'comment' your posts.

Mobile Device Application

I did a small analysis about available technologies and possibilities related to the Mobile application development, and the available options are..

1. Apple iOS application
2. Google Android application
3. jQuery Mobile with HTML (Web page)
4. Standard web development using CSS3 and HTML5 (Web Page)

Requirements – Apple iOS development

1. Apple developer licence - basically cost $100 per year to host the application with App Store – This may be not needed if we are planning to run the application without apple server ( I have to confirm on the possibility of this)
2. Mac OS machine (iMac or Mac Book) to develop the XCODE.
3. This works only in Apple Mobile devices

Requirements –Android

1. PC with android SDK is needed to develop on this platform – this can be done in-house.
2. Android also need a developer license for developing applications and hosting on the Android Market ( This may be not needed if we are planning to run the application without Android Market , I have to confirm on the possibility of this)
3. This only works in Android powered mobile devices.

Requirement – Option 3 and 4

1. The tools and computer what we have are enough to develop mobile web pages using CSS and HTML. Basically these are web pages behave like touch response application.
2. This will work in any smart phones/devices.

Conclusion
Native mobile application (apple or android) seems to be stable than a web page act like a mobile application. But the easiest and quickest method is to go for a mobile friendly web page.

Opening a Bank account

It was a friday on the 5th of 2010, I have been to Commonwealth bank of Australia to open an account for my self.

Does it need to have yellow as the main colour for a bank which acts the national bank in each country?
This is the third time I am facing it. Now it is ‘Commonwealth bank of Australia’. It is not national bank anyway, but it looks like.

To open a savings account they requested on my passport. An the lady who was handling my request was polite, her granddaughter’s was really pritty in the gymnastic session photos was decorating her grandma's work place. She said that my Debit Card will be delivered to the postal address after commenting about the big letters (AUSTRALIA) of my t-shirt.

I placed sum amount of money into my account as an initial deposit, and collected the temporary password for the internet banking. They gave me two letters for my employers to transfer my salary to my account where I haven't a Job. Ha.. Ha..

I felt I am so lucky

I got up in the morning - my first wake up in Australia - and looked out through the window, I saw a land full of trees has grown taller, and the sun rays was measuring the height of them. I felt I am so lucky – what else you need in the life of a human being.

It is a pleasure to be a part of them, But I took my digital SLR and shot them down.

The truth is every body is lucky, it might take some time to release that, period.

I haven’t done much in my first day of Australia except eating and sleeping. 

Dream it, it will happen

Exactly two years ago, my flight hit the ground quickly from eight thousand feets over the sky, seems it took only half a minute, then it ran on the runway was proportional. These wild things happened within a minute. In the next second i have landed in Brisbane.

Australia has seven states as main land territories. Brisbane is the state capital of Queens Land, of cause the largest city too. It is also the third most populated city in Australia.

Australia was my dream land from some known days nevertheless it took such a long days to happen. I had a successfull carrier in my country, even though I wish to move out. My first choice was Australia and it was the second too.

My father use to say ‘dream it, it will happen’. I belive that is true.

The first post

I was thinking for a long time of starting a new blog of my day-to-day experience, but the time never came up in the right way to start a “write way”. But soon or later I realized that I if want it either I should start now, neither never.

Then the focus turns into what to write about. Actually every one has a story and new ideas every day. So finally I decided to just blog about things around me.

Then I came up with another question, when to start from , as I am a good question generator. The day 11th November 2011 has been selected. On that grate day, with a wonderful mindset nothing happened, as usual. Four days later, finally its happened.

Yes I post my first post to this blog.
