General Election Coming Up

As usual in Sri Lanka as soon as the presidential election is over the general election is coming up. It is very amusing to watch people who supported each other in the presidential election now going up against each other. It is really funny to see UNP candidates having a go at the JVP. I think this general election will spell doom for JVP and they have wisely teamed up with General Sarath Fonseka. It is really sad to see the current state of the such a heroic figure. It just goes to show how downright dirty our politics and politicians really are. Government is giving there best to get 2/3 in the parliment so they can change the constitution and by looking at the way current there using the power now I really don't feel like giving them 2/3 in the parliment.
I think one of the main reasons it is hard to develop this country is this constant power struggle. From morning to night the opposition is looking for ways to topple the government so goverment have to be constantly be on the lookout for such a coup. If the politicians focus 10% of that energy to develop this country this will be a much better place to live. I can't forsee this happening in the near future and that is the most sadest thing of them all.

New very simple Theme

Although its nice to have fancy looking themes you should never underestimate the power of simple elegant looking themes so I decided to go for a a new theme. This one I found out through a link in one of my LinkedIn groups. And after testing it out I must say it is pretty impressive. And even if you are not technical person there are clear instructions on how to modify the template to your liking. Although simle looking its packed with great features. You can link to your favorite social profiles , has a navigation panel that is easy to modify and has a four column footer so you can fill it with almost anything. You can find it in this free web templates site , there are few more on offer so you should check them out even if you don't like this one.

Whats the biggest problem in Sri Lanka

Politics bore me and I have no interest in following what is happening in the field of politics. But how much you try you just can't avoid it. So I usually get to hear to same story with different views plenty of times. After listening to them for a while I can only come to one clear conclusion. No one is certain about what is truth and what is false and that seems to be the biggest problem of them all. There doesn't seem to be any unbiased trustworthy media. So everyone is clinging to there own opinions and its hard or almost impossible to change since there are no verified facts. I sometimes wonder whether I'm stupid to ignore the things around me just because they aren't affecting me yet , maybe they will affect me later and I will regret it. So far the political turmoil surrounding this country doesn't seem to affect me and hopefully it will never affect me

Finally got rid of those annoying folders

For some reason after I installed Microsoft Sql Server there were few folders with hexadecimal name left over. Strangely they were created not in the drive I installed MSS. It wasn't easy to find the solution with lots of different recommendations , some even suggesting you buy some software. But I found a simple solution in , How to remove annoying hexadecimal folders , this stuff works and it want cost you a cent.

The Party Mentality

Tomorrow is the the election and judging by people's reaction nobody is sure who will become the president. Although there are some people who have not yet decided upon who to vote I think most have made up there minds long ago. The sad thing is people tend to support parties more than anything. So whatever said and done very few really change there minds. There are already allegations of that this will be one of the most corrupt elections ever which is a sign that the government is not so sure about themselves. Hopefully the election will be without violence but I highly doubt it.
