SL Army capture Ltte carder
MULLAITTIVU: TROOPS of the 7 Sri Lanka Sinha Regiment (SLSR), poised to forge ahead towards the eastward after their recent capture of KATKIDANKU area in the MULLAITTIU district are beset not only by terrorist attacks, but also due to torrential rains and ankle-deep waters, as the photos in this story depict. As late as Tuesday (9) afternoon, troops commanded by Lieutenant Colonel KITHSIRI LIYANAGE had to face an unexpected ordeal while his troops were advancing, as scheduled. A rain of enemy fire took them by surprise, but alert troops responded to the challenge effectively and managed to neutralize the enemy- fire within a few minutes. That was not the end. Troops went further closer to the enemy hideout and were shocked to come across an injured Tiger terrorist, lying by the side of the same LTTE hideout.

Humanity overrode all terrorist concerns. Brave and concerned troops immediately rescued the injured Tiger who had received bullet wounds to his ankle and miserably found immovable due to nature of his wounds. Troops changed their stance on the terrorist swiftly, instead for a moment showed him the wealth of compassion and kind -heatedness that troops themselves, have inherited. They lifted the wounded terrorist and carried him on wooden planking to troops-held areas across gushing waters before medical treatment was given to him. Looking so dejected but inspired by human touch, the captured Tiger afterwards began to narrate his tale.

Fight and flight - The LTTE's air cargo ambitions By Duncan Woodside -->
Satellite imagery has revealed a number of runways in LTTE-controlled areas of Sri Lanka. This could either show civilian aspirations towards statehood or a desire to fly in weapons. Jane's looks at the evidence and suggests the latter is more likely.
The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) is losing its war for an independent state in Sri Lanka. Since the effective resumption of the conflict in 2006, it has lost control of the Eastern Province and seen its forces slowly pushed back in the north. The LTTE's priority must now be to ensure a continued supply of arms and ammunition to prevent further defeats.
Given this situation and having suffered heavy losses to its ocean-going smuggling fleet, the LTTE now asppears to be preparing to fly in supplies to its stronghold in northern Sri Lanka. Commercial satellite imagery obtained by Jane's confirms that between 2004 and 2007, the rebels constructed two airstrips that can handle cargo aircraft capable of transporting weapons from Central or Southeast Asia.
While the imagery does not confirm the airstrips are in use, the investment of significant resources suggests the LTTE has developed facilities that can serve air logistics needs at a critical time in its three-decade war with the Sri Lankan state. Jane's can also confirm that the LTTE has made at least one attempt to arrange for a consignment of artillery rounds to be flown in.

A drunk phoned police to report that thieves had been in his car.
"They've stolen the dashboard, the steering wheel, the brake pedal, even the accelerator!" he cried out.
However, before the police investigation could start, the phone rang a second time with the same voice came over the line.
"Never mind," he said with a hiccup, "I got in the back seat by mistake."

Joke
A police officer pulls over this guy who's been weaving in and out of the lanes.
He goes up to the guy's window and says, "Sir, I need you to blow into this breathalyzer tube."
The man says, "Sorry, officer, I can't do that. I am an asthmatic. If I do that, I'll have a really bad asthma attack."
"Okay, fine. I need you to come down to the station to give a blood sample."
"I can't do that either. I am a hemophiliac. If I do that, I'll bleed to death."
"Well, then, we need a urine sample."
"I'm sorry, officer, I can't do that either. I am also a diabetic. If I do that, I'll get really low blood sugar."
"All right, then I need you to come out here and walk this white line."
"I can't do that, officer."
"Why not?"
"Because I'm drunk."

"We will only rest after defeating LTTE and till then our campaign will continue", Army Chief Lt. General Sarath Fonseka, was quoted saying during the launch of 'Wanni Satana', a book written by Defence Columnist, Tissa Ravindra Perera at the National Library and Documentation Services Board on Thursday(25).
"The Army will fire its first rounds towards Kilinochchi town by next week, as troops are some four kilometers away from Kilinochchi," said Lt. General Fonseka further adding that, "we can even see some of the buildings in the town."
"They even said that the Eelam war-IV would come to Colombo. But now we can see our forces taking the war to Kilinochchi and now the LTTE Leader is like a caged animal," he said.
"When we commenced of the liberation of the east in 2006, some had said, we can't do it. But we have proved we can, and our forces are near the heart of Kilinochchi," he said.
"We have done our duty during last two years as promised," Lt. Gen Fonseka said, adding, "we need the support of the media institutes, for the sake of the country and to show we are strong enough to stand by ourselves."
Also speaking at the occasion, Air Force Commander Roshan Goonetilake said, that the Air Force would continue to hunt for the LTTE Leader.
"We are getting intelligence and information about the whereabouts of Prabhakaran; we will continue with our raids, targeting those hideouts", he said.
Earlier, the author had published two books about the ongoing military campaigns. Director General of the Civil Defence Force (CDF), Rear Admiral Sarath Weerasekara was also present at the occasion.
In addition, a dedicated web site for 'war Heroes' (www.srilankanwarheroes.com) was re-launched at the event.

"Good afternoon madame. My name is Walter and I am with W.O.O.P radio station, better know as WOO-P. Perhaps you have heard about us".
The elderly lady squinted over her glasses and in a squeaky voice slowly answered "yes I have".
"Today I am talking to people on the street. Do you mind if I ask you a few personal questions? You don't have to answer if you don't want to".
"I really don't mind" she said.
"Would you mind telling our listening audience how old you are?"
"I will be 97 next month".
"My goodness that is wonderful. How long have you been a widow?"
"I'm not a widow young man-----".
"You mean to tell me that your husband is still alive?"
"He sure is".
"How old is he?"
"109" she answered.
"I have also wanted to ask an older couple a very personal question but I must tell you that it is of a very delicate nature. What our listening audience is waiting to hear is the answer to the question do you and your husband have mutual climax?"
She thought for a moment and replied "no I think we have State Farm!!!"

Duck Food?
A duck walks into a store and says "Got any duck food?" The store manager tells the duck, "Get outta here, we don't serve ducks and we don't have any duck food."
The next day the duck is back again asking "Got any duck food?" The store manager says, "I told you yesterday we don't have any duck food!!", and kicks the duck out again.
Third day, same thing. "Got any duck food?" Store manager says "If you come in here asking for duck food again, I'm gonna nail your webbed feet to the floor!!!!"
Sure enough, next day the duck walks in the store and right up to the store manager, "You got any nails???" The store manager says "NO!!!!" The duck then says "Good, you got any duck food????"

NEW BRIDE
A young couple, just married, were in their honeymoon suite on their wedding night. As they undressed for bed, the husband, a big burly man, tossed his pants to his bride and said, "Here, put these on." She did, and the waist was twice the size of her body. "I can't wear your pants," she said. "That's right!!" said the husband, "and don't you
forget it! I'm the one who wears the pants in this family!"
With that she flipped him her panties and said, "Try these on." He tried them on and found he could only get them as far as his kneecap. He said, "Hell, I can't get into your panties!" She said, "That's right! And that's the way it's gonna be until your stinking attitude changes!"
