The Guardian - Never Let Go
Saturday, August 16, 2008
Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live?
Can you take what you need, but take less than you give?
Could you close every day, without the glory and fame?
Could you hold your head high, when no one knows your name?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say.
We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.
Can you lose everything, you ever had planned?
Can you sit down again, and play another hand?
Could you risk everything, for the chance of being alone?
Under pressure find the grace, or would you come undone?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say.
We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.
Never let go, Never let go, Never let go
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.
We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, 'but you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Song Lyrics
Pray for me brother
Pray for me brother
Pray for me sister
Are you searchinÂ’…
Pray for me brother
LookinÂ’ for the answers To all the questions In my life
Will I be alone Will you be there By my side
Is it something he said Is it something he did
I wonder why He is searchinÂ’ For the answers
To stay alive
Could you ever listen Could you ever care
To speak your mind
Only for a minute For only one moment
In time
The joy is around us But show me the love
That we must find
Are you searchinÂ’ For a reason to be kind, to be kind…
He said… Pray for me brother
Pray for me brother Pray for me sister
Pray for me brother Say
what you wanna say now
But keep your hearts open
Be what you wanna be now
LetÂ’s heal the confusion
Pray for me brother
DonÂ’t let me take When you donÂ’t wanna give
DonÂ’t be afraid Just let me live
DonÂ’t let me take When you donÂ’t wanna give
DonÂ’t be afraid Say what you wanna say now
But keep your hearts open
Be what you wanna be now LetÂ’s heal the confusion
Pray for me brother Pray for me brother
IÂ’m ashamed ah, brother be dying of poverty
when he down on his knees its only then he prays
And itÂ’s a shame ah, brother be dying of ignorance
cos the world is a trip and everybodyÂ’s a hypocrite
Need to stop ah , taking a look at the other
IÂ’m not ashamed of poverty
need to be making his life better
So think about it, think about it once more
cos life is a blessing and itÂ’s not justa show, ah
Round and round the world is spinning around
We need to be singing a prayer, we need to be singing it now
Round and round the world is turning around
We need to be singing a prayer, we need to be singing it now
Need to be feeling the power, need to be feeling the faith
We need to coming together just to win this race
Need to be feeling the power, need to be feeling the faith
We need to coming together just to win this race (twice)
Are you searching for a reason to be kind ?

ජාතියම බත බුලතින් පෝ‌ෂණය කරන්නට අපේ රජදරුවන් වැව් අමුණු ඉදි කලහ. පෙරදිග ධාන්‍යාගාරය නම් විරුදාවලිය ලැබීමට තරම් ආදී අප සිංහලය බත බුලතින් පෝ‌ෂණය වී තිබුණේය. පුරාවෘත්තයන් වලට අනුව සොරබොර වැව ඉදි කරනලද්දේ බුලතා යෝධයා විසිනි. මෙම සටහන බුලතා යෝධයා පිළිබදව පැවසීමට නොව එවන් යෝධ වැඩක් කරන කුවින්ටි මාමා ගැනය. හේ තනියම වැවක් හදන්නට වෙරදරයි. අද වැව් තැනීමට අදහස් කරන අය බොහෝය. නමුත් ඒවා හුදෙක්ම අදහස් පමණි. නමුත් කුවින්ටි මාමාගේ වැවෙහි වැඩ බොහෝදුරට අවසන්ය. මේ ඔහුගේ කතාවයි.
මෙම සටහන ඉඩම් බිම් වල් ගසින් පිරෙද්දී කම්මැලිකමෙන් බලා සිටින මිනිසුන් සිටින යුගයක අනුන්ගේ ඉඩම් අස්වද්දන්නට දියවර ලබා දීමට වෙහෙසෙන ඒ ඔහුගේ වෑයමට උපහාරයක් ලෙසිනි.
උපුටා ගන්නා ලද්දේ රිවිර පුවත්පත.

In London, Muttiah Muralitharan received a standing ovation when his name was mentioned at the 'We, Children of the Pearl' cultural show held at Imperial College on 15th December 2007. Murali was hailed as a wonderful example of diversity in action in Sri Lanka.
Alston Koch has recorded the only tribute song officially endorsed by Murali himself.Alston told World Music Central that he has also released a music video to go with his 'Murali' song. It has been played by radio and TV stations in three continents and been even mentioned on the BBC's 'Test Match Special.'
He is the only Sri Lankan-born singer song-writer to be signed to an international record label and have success in Australia, Asia and Europe with Platinum & Gold record status.

IR – Decoder for Sony Remotes
Sunday, January 13, 2008
It is not my intention to teach you how to program a PICmicro, therefore, throughout this article; it is assumed that you already have some knowledge of either assembler or PicBASIC Pro. And that you have a means of programming the PIC16F84. For more information concerning the PicBASIC range of compilers, as well as an assortment of programmers, visit Crownhill Associate’s dedicated web site at www.picbasic.co.uk. For information concerning assembler programming, visit Microchip’s web site at www.microchip.com.
Here is the circuit diagram. I successfully built this.
The out put of RS232 is like this
IR_BUT<Button Code>\rIR_DEV<Device Code>\r
Button Code is the value assigned to the button i.e E00(in hex) is the value for for Number 1 button
Device code is the value assigned to the device.
Source Code written is PICBasic
