Guest guest Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Dear Anita, no wonder you had a problem finding out the issue because instead of the subject some of the BCC adresses have got into the subjectbar... I don't know how, then my battery also went down in the middle of sending the mail, so probably not everyone got it. aapn does not publish attachments, but the mail to your address should have four attachments, in those you can find all the necessary background informations. Please let me know if you have not received them, then I will send them again. I wish anyone of us knew how to design a web-page and how to update it regularly, that would make it easier for Non-Sri Lankans to get to know about the ongoing conflicts here regarding the dog-population-control-efforts. I hear it's not so difficult, but right now I have no free time at all to learn about website-design.. Today was fullmoon-day, so probably they were scared to kill. Dr.Jayasinghe, being a Buddhist, knows pretty well that, if the Buddha's teaching is true, he will go to hell, that's why he does not send his staff to kill on a full-moon-day, but fact is: the Buddhist precepts have to be kept every day, not only duing festive seasons. This much at least I know about the Buddha's teaching even though I was not born here, but was already 25, when I came to live here 25 years ago and got to know the Buddha's teaching then and started practicing it. Even though we still hold on to our hopes for a humane programme launced by the Central Government, the fear , that they may start killing again our community-dogs is weighing our hearts down. However we will not just sit and watch it happen, but continue to do what is possible to prevent it. If there is no news from us tomorrow, it is good news, because that means we continue our usual work, without being disrupted by the municipality.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Try www.freewebs.com, it is easy and you can have it done in just a few hours. I do have knowledge of web design or computers in general, freewebs makes it very easy to start a website if only to get the word out. Hope this helps.
