Dean of the Faculty of Medical Sciences
I got an inkling that I was appointed as the Dean of the Faculty of Dental Sciences..

There were two reasons, I joined Nawaloka Hospital Administration.

CATS, DOGS and SQUIRRELS
TRINGO
Family Crisis, TRIN-GO the Trigger Mechanism of the Crisis.
Because of our industrial action, I have decided not to share publicly, except privately, any humour, anecdotes and many amusing stories that crop up when we do not Care for Work, like politicians, take a real vacation even though, it was premature by 6 months and enjoy the life as if there is only a few days to live in a year when the World is predicted to end as predicted by an Oracle.
But the focus was only on the Strike in spite of many obstacles.
Telling all my near and dear do not get depressed but try creativity which politicians lack and teach them a lesson, even it is not the time and the midterm of a aimless regime except glorifying and consolidation of the power base.
I was of the opinion that midterm was the best time to take industrial action since one can get a sleeping, lethargic and partisan administration to change its ways and be responsible and responsive. There was no pressure for those in power politically in midterm and extract what ever it may be desirable.
Equally, one can “Test The Mentality” of those in power and their corrupt officials giving them wrong and ill advice strategically.
I also warned them that it will take a political trend which I am technically or strategically against but not morally though, since there are many who will piggyback on US and take political mileage.
In a democracy if we remain silent and passive partners, the the cradle of democracy will crumble. It crumbled since Tamils were silent when atrocities were enacted on them from both sides of the divide.. It is going to crumble if Muslim and Sinhala communities remain passive participants. Thank god Muslim community has realised it even very late.
They are been globally and systematically suppressed by American and British engineered propaganda which France is cohesively and covertly participating.
All due to OIL but nothing but OIL, the energy crisis looming.
I also told when politics not policies takes precedence, the final outcome is dicey and it will be a long drawn out and painful “Industrial Action” for both sides of the divide.
There is no Win-Win outcome.
The longer it gets into the deep end of the rotten and muddy pool of politics, the worse the outcome is.
Slowly and surely the bureaucrats have muddied the pool. All my predictions have come true except a viable solution.
This long preamble is to explain the newly coined name of our newly adopted grandson who is a squirrel who even had not opened its eyes. Again the full story will come after the strike is over and one has to wait.
We have kept a diary of him and that will come out when we are back at work, academically.
I need some diversions from the main stream to wear my creative hat when in full gear.
After I have attended to the emergency need half with my wife’s help, I was out in the town enjoying the new found Freedom.
I let the tiny one relax and go to sleep since my wife had frightened it so much, only sedative I could assure was dark room conducive for sleeping. I went to sleep myself and when I got up, the next thing was to name it.
GO was vital and I had decided that it had to GO when he is ready.
I won´t get attached to it.
TRI is that it had to survive the from CATS, and my DOG and Ants.
It also has stripes not three but many on its back.
I made a note on a little notebook for my daughter to attend and again went back to town to find a suitable pen.
Quite by accident the name rings on me the way we handle Reconciliation.
We are like CATS, DOGS and SQUIRRELS,
They cannot live in one house or in a restricted pen. We are so deeply divided, this country will never prosper.
TRIN-GO reminds me, the election results of the TRINCO, too.
Without any amendments the new name was endorsed by the adopted family and the poor squirrel family has to be satisfied one minus but soon the juvenile will be roaming on rooftops and trees.
The question is why cannot we enjoy our new found Freedom?
Why it is only for One Dominant Party?
Why there is no reconciliation but only power politics?
Political power when absolute takes away prudence and cohabitation.
We are worse than CATS, DOGS and SQIRRELS.
In spite of the oddity in nature they somehow survive near human habitation. Only rarely one has to intervene.
When one is young, blind or injured we have to help.
Soon he has to be released to the mother nature.
That was my resolve and no attachment.
One should not get attached to Power, too.
Even our Buddhist monks are deeply entrenched in this Power Game. That is the sad part and we do not have philosophers to take their place.
Even the philosophy of live and let live is hijacked by the modern Buddhists. and their political leaders.
Why?
I do not know.

Tears down my dog’s eyes
My Android Cellphones from Android 5 to 13
My Android Cellphones from Android 4 to 13
My Cellphones
I have a collection of phones from year, 2009.
I have the habit of donating cellphones to poor guys.
My first android phone was GreenTel.
It had a very good camera.
It works well even to this day.
My first tab was a Linux Suse, which I bought in Ceylon. That was the first tab that brokedown.
Later I bought a Lenova tab in Singapore and it brokedown after a single update.
Why it did bust I did not know.
I go to Singapore often when I want to do some shopping, including cellphones.
The expensive cellphone I bought for my better half with sealed battery is defunct now.
I bought a few ZiGO phones.
The second GreenTel I bought for less than Rs.6000/= was good.
I decided to go for Nokia in 2015 and I have 5 Nokia cellphones working well with different Android versions up to 4G.
Now to the cellphone Servce Providers and the supply chain.
MobiTel is hopeless.
Dialog is equally worse and the broadband Internet I bought year ago is still inactive after paying the arrears of Rs.5000/=. I am going to take it to the retailer and thrash it on the floor to pieces, so the video of that incident is flashed on TV for public view. That is after the New Year Break.
I switched to Hutch and they provide a good service but bit too, expensive.
I bought an AirTel SIM ages ago and finished it's data in one night updating my first Chinese Ameo Tablet.
The Ameo is still working with a damaged SIM slot. I updated it before damaging it's SIM slot. I play kids games on it.
So paying a lot for a cellphone where local communication suppliers have not upgraded their services, even to 4G is ridiculous.
They are still in LTE infrastructure.
So, buy a cheap phone with basics not an Apple for heaven's sake.
Even buying a Samsung is a is waste.
I will stick with basic Nokia but it's latest phones costs Rs.800,000/=.
By the way, my TV is original SONY with three year warranty.
GNU Emac
What happened to Coding Applications GNU Emac and Vim of GNOME?
They are very heavy.
My suggestion is:
Geometry in Action
Coding for the Brave
Science in Action
Insights in Linux
New Frontiers
Linux Never Miss
When I install GNOME Desktop, I do not find Vim or GNU Emac incorporated with it.
I do not do any Coding at all but nevertheless, it is a routine for me to install LyX.
I did not have the time to invest on LateX or VIM as a medical guy doing on call duty.
My time on Latex was limited.
It had the best page layout.
LyX was the closest substitute to Latex.
Let me list a few of those coding applications.
Yes, Visual Basic of Linux.
Never tried it.
5. Bluefish
That is the one I used during 32 bit days.
By the way simple little Editors can do bulk of the work.
1. Gedit
2. Geany
3. Gnome Edit
4. Jedi
5. Joe's Editor
Yes, AI is right it is back.

Celebrations without Microsoft
Is there anybody other than Anuradha doing work only on Linux in Sri-Lanka?
Please post an email or comment below so that we can have a private party.
I was trying to catch 100 students (school leavers to train free) from Kandy.
That was a total failure.

Value, Design and Future Perspective
Value, Design and Future Perspective
Our current values will decide the basis of our intended designs of the future.
If we go on, without an objective, we would end up, in a blind alley.
This is so in economics, politics and even worse, in social realm.
It is pretty obvious in Ceylon and US we are heading for the cliff edge.
Sometimes, I think we are going backward, politically.
Simply because we do not have potent democratic values and a correct political design of flexibility.
We are groping in the dark.
The movement is generally, unidirectional and never multidimensional and that is also only towards the future.

We were not ready for the current predicament suddenly exposed by the Coronavirus.
I have no inclination on probing the biological, economic and social arenas.
There are lot of guys already driving their efforts on those fields.
Dr. Fauci, is trapped in medicine, including immunology.
I need to say few words about him here, for posterity.
His dress is smart.
His sporting hat was fitting but not his throw.
I believe, the ball given to him had lead weight in it.
Should have been given a tennis ball, instead.
His composure was solid.
By the way he had many political slips.
It seems he was almost rivaling President Trump.
His scientific design and presentation were excellent.
His composure was solid.
He does not go round beating about the bush like politicians.
The recent senate hearing or review was indictment on all the journalists, including CNN, who were making their own political slips through.
The scientific facts were not evident.
I prefer, more of abstract dimensions that will even envy Steven Hawking.
I would fit in with the 5 dimensions out of the 13 postulated in mathematical terms.
That will lead me to dark energy and dark matter and shape shifting technology.
I would like to ponder on those matters and thinking of a way of getting to the nearest galaxy outside our own, at least in theoretical or philosophical sense.
