US embassy warns, Females should avoid, traveling in TUK-TUKS alone in Colombo.
U.S. Embassy Colombo has been made aware of an increase in incidents involving Tuk-tuk drivers in the Colombo area inappropriately touching female passengers. The U.S. Embassy reminds all U.S. Citizens to maintain situational awareness when in public and at home to avoid being a victim of crime. Please consider the following security tips:
- Females should avoid traveling in Tuk-tuks alone in Colombo.
- If you have to travel alone (especially at night) use a company that tracks your ride rather than Tuk-tuks and make sure family members or friends know your travel plans.
- Take pictures of the Tuk driver and vehicle license plate prior to getting inside.
- Many of the reported incidents occurred at the end of the ride – be extra vigilant during this time and try to limit time alone inside the Tuk.
- Place physical barriers (bags, etc) between yourself and the driver.
- Do not be afraid to use force if needed – make noise, be assertive, and strike back to defend yourself. Doing so will not only draw attention to the scene, but can also startle the attacker
- Pay attention to your surroundings, and know your location in case you have to call for assistance
- Do not make yourself a target for criminals – flashing expensive jewelry or large amounts of cash can make you a target
- Lock your doors, including when you are at home
- Carry your cell phone and ensure it is charged or carry a back-up charger. Have emergency numbers saved on your contacts list

Trafficking Persons Report : US, Sri Lanka did not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of human trafficking.
therefore, Sri Lanka was upgraded to Tier 2. The government demonstrated increasing efforts by establishing new anti trafficking units and creating a special police division for the protection of witnesses and victims of all crimes. While official complicity in human trafficking persisted, the government investigated 18 officials for allegedly creating fraudulent documents to provide workers employment abroad, and it prosecuted and convicted more traffickers than in the previous reporting period. However, the government did not meet the minimum standards in several key areas. At times, the government’s inconsistent identification of victims resulted in the penalization of victims for prostitution and for immigration violations committed as a result of the victim’s subjection to trafficking. The government provided no specialized services to male victims and sometimes housed child victims in government detention centers. The government maintained specific requirements for migration of female migrant workers including those migrating for domestic work, which observers stated increased the likelihood women would migrate illegally and therefore heightened their vulnerability to human trafficking.

True love , abandonment ? is it captured ?.
True love is not both. true love is the will to feel . it's not a necessity for living . people love living because they love each other to be attracted to themselves and to deceive their hearts. most people do not know about a natural process created by the mind.
nevertheless, it attracts everyone's physical connection, it is similar to animals. sexuality is an exciting, not love .man loves on his own needs.
Otherwise,you would like to have someone else want you. it then recognizes you as a loved one.these facts are not necessary for people to live and happiness, splendor,it is enough to understand how, to feel like the same.
In addition, many other emotions emerge from the mind and are different from each other's external behavior and function.

Where are those who are gender rights.
What happened Buddished government of such incidents, in sri lanka.
Thameem Fatheema Sharmila died “after being tied to a chair, poured oil and set on fire by her abusive husband.”

As the article states below: “Sharmila was both a victim of her husband but also a victim of the Muslim Marriage and Divorce Act (MMDA) and the Constitution,” under which she has no rights.

International Day Yoga and Meditation Yogis.
International Yoga Day will be held on 21 June.
India prepares to break a record.
International Yoga Day on June 21 is expected to see a record participation with nearly 60,000 people performing in unison in a quest for the Guinness record. Daily yoga practitioners from the network of yoga schools in the city did not turn up for the practice as they perform the yogic exercises regularly, but will constitute the core during the main event on June 21.
Yoga’s history
Yoga’s history has many places of obscurity and uncertainty due to its oral transmission of sacred texts and the secretive nature of its teachings. The early writings on yoga were transcribed on fragile palm leaves that were easily damaged, destroyed or lost. The development of yoga can be traced back to over 5,000 years ago, but some researchers think that yoga may be up to 10,000 years old old. Yoga’s long rich history can be divided into four main periods of innovation, practice and development.

Major Characteristics of Public Opinion
It is quite difficult to define Public Opinion because different scholars define it differently. Some define it as the opinion of all the people some others say it is an opinion of leaders, while still others describe it as a majority opinion. But these views do not represent truth.
1. Aggregate of views which men hold regarding matters that affect the community." However, such as aggregate must have for its basis the welfare of the community and only then can it be recognized and respected as public opinion.
2. In the words of Dr. Beni Prasad, "Opinion may be regarded as truly public opinion when it is motivated by regard for the welfare of the whole of society."
3. According to Carol, "In its common use Public Opinion refers to the composite reaction of the general public."
4. Lowell defines Public Opinion,: "In order that opinion may be public, majority is not enough and unanimity is not required, but the opinion must be such that while the minorities may not share it but they feel bound by conviction and not by fear to accept it."
In simple words we can say that public opinion is neither the opinion of all nor it is the majority opinion. It is an opinion which is generally held by all and its purpose is to highlight the welfare of all. It is a consensus opinion which enjoys the support of a very large majority of people. It is even not opposed by the minorities as it reflects a concern for the welfare of all.
