[Goanet] Women empowerment projects
-- | Add your name to the CLEAN GOA INITIATIVE | || | by visiting this link and following the instructions therein | || | http://shire.symonds.net/pipermail/goanet/2005-October/033926.html | -- Dear Goanetters, It gives me great pleasure to announce that Goanet is starting a women's support group. As you can imagine it's going to be hard to establish a network to support women from scratch. But, we're dedicated to trying our best to succeed. We have a new volunteer who will oversee these projects. Please join me in welcoming Meera Noronha to the fold. Meera lives in Kanpur, Uttarpradesh. She works with special children in the Spastics Centre. She is also involved in different local social organizations.You can reach Meera at [EMAIL PROTECTED] To start, we thought that we'd build up a database of organizations which help abused women. The database will include organizations worldwide so that abused women anywhere can find resources for help closeby. We'd like to request that all those already involved in women's groups to please respond with details of your organisation. Please let us know where you are located and what you do to empower women. We'd also like to invite others to volunteer on this project, especially counsellors. In time, perhaps we could provide some counselling services, anonymous or otherwise, or merely be a point of contact to point women in right direction to get help. Furthermore, if the women on this forum are interested, we'll provide you with a women's only mailing list. This forum would encourage women to discuss issues and help support the women empowerment projects that we undertake. If you have any ideas on how we can go about setting up projects to help women and empower them, please send us your suggestions. Better still, we'd like to encourage you to volunteer to help us establish some worthwhile services. For those involved in any women's groups locally, please respond giving reference to your organization and work place. Please join us in supporting our women and our community. Best wishes, -- Herman
[Goanet] GOANET ADMIN: Launching Goanet-careers
-- | Add your name to the CLEAN GOA INITIATIVE | || | by visiting this link and following the instructions therein | || | http://shire.symonds.net/pipermail/goanet/2005-October/033926.html | -- Dear Goanetters, We are proud to introduce a new mailing list as part of the Goanet family - Goanet-careers! Goanet-careers intends to be a platform where Goans can reach out to assist other Goans by way of career guidance, counselling, job searches, posting jobs, job placement assistance, immigration, accommodation, settling anew... and more. As we all know, many Goans have left India and have become entrenched successfully in the new countries they embraced. Other Goans have emigrated out of Goa to other parts of India and have excelled. And, many Goans have excelled in Goa itself. As such, many of us are in a position to offer someone a job, to advertise openings in our companies/institutions, or to provide some sort of career guidance in a field that is familiar to us. Our Goan community needs a network to link those in the know with fellow Goans in need of such information. Goanet-careers aims to be such a network. Though this seems to be a challenging venture, it is an attainable one. As in other community projects, the success of Goanet-careers will be achieved only by active participation of the Diasporic Goan community and Goans in Goa. We, therefore, encourage you to assist Goans worldwide by playing an active role in the Goanet-careers network. Please send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to subscribe to this mailing list or subscribe at: http://www.goanet.org/listinfo.php?name=Newslist=goanet-careers Thank you Herman Carneiro http://www.goanet.org where Goans connect

Dear Goanetters, On behalf of all those on Goanet it gives me great pleasure to congratulate Mr. Gorgonio Lobo on celebrating his 100th birthday in Goa. Mr. Lobo celebrated the big day on September 9th, 2005. Mr. Lobo, we wish good health and happiness. May you have many more. Attached to this email is a copy of an email to us from Mr. Lobo's daughter, Sybil de Quadros. Following that is Mr. Lobo's birthday speech. Please join me in congratulating Mr. Lobo. Sincerely, -- Herman Carneiro - Forwarded message from Sybil Novarro de Quadros - Dear Fred Herman: I returned from Goa on Sept. 11th, after celebrating Dad's 100th birthday, on Sept. 9th. We attended a Thanksgiving Mass at 9 a.m. After which Dad thanked his friends who were not able to join us at the reception later that evening. The reception was held at Emerald Lawns. Dad typed his speech my son, Conrad had it re-typed in big block letters to make it easier for him to read. Dad did very well in delivering it. I thank you on behalf on my sisters, brothers all our children. God Bless! Sybil - Subject: Gorgonio Lobo - 100th Birthday September 9, 2005 - My parents, Angelo Libania worked in Entebbe, Uganda, where I was born in 1905. I was the eldest of their 4 sons. Although my parents 3 brothers have gone to their eternal reward they have left me with many happy memories and blessings. In 1915 my parents returned to Goa. I joined St Joseph's High School Arpora in 1915 achieved my Matriculation in 1923. My first job in 1929 was as Clerk, with the Ministry of Health. I was appointed to Hospitals in Jinja, Soroti, Masindi, Entebbe, Masaka Kampala, rising to the rank of Medical Superintendent. In 1963, I retired after 34 years service with the Govt. After which I joined the Kampala City Council as a Graduated Tax Officer, until 1971. In 1936 I married Priscilla De Souza from Calangute. Together we had 5 children. As parents we fostered in our children a love for our Faith, the importance of education, enjoyment of music a sense of community The upheaval following the seizure of power by Idi Amin caused the dispersal of my family - Arthur Judy to Perth Australia, Sybil Alfred to Canada. Bertha had married and joined her husband in Switzerland. The opportunity to go to England or Australia were forgone as the pull of my ancestrial home water from my own well was strongest. My wife I returned to Goa. Later we spent 2-1/2 in Perth with our family many ex-Ugandan friends. After my return to Goa, I was able to contribute to the community teaching violin the organ supporting the Parish of St Anne. My contributions in Uganda: President Founding Member of the Parent Teacher Association in Entebbe Kampala. Member of the Advisory Board of Asian Education, Kampala; Member of the Central Goan Council President of the Goan Institute, Entebbe. Member of the Asian Widows Orphans Pension Fund, Kampala. Member of the Uganda Defence Force (2 yrs.) in 1941. Many have asked the secret of my longevity. It is ultimately the Blessing of God. However the constant use of mind body kept me going, i.e. teaching music, keeping up to date with current affairs, managing my own finances. Maintaining a large home demanded a daily routine of activity. Until 2003 I rode my scooter drove my car to Mapusa the church in doing so, maintained an independent lifestyle. The regular visits from friends their children has renewed the bonds of great friendship we created fostered in Uganda. Sadly my wife of 67 years passed away on November 22, 2003. I look forward to be a Centenarian as I target my 100th Birthday would like to request all my dear friends to participate spiritually in my Thanks- giving Prayers to Almighty God for granting me a long lease of life. I am happy to be celebrating my Birthday on September 9, 2005 in the company of my children and grandchildren from Geneva, Switzerland, Perth, Western Australia Montreal/Toronto, Canada friends.

[Goanet]GOANET ADMIN: ANNOUCEMENT of INITIATIVES
Dear Goanet members, In connection with Goanet's 10th anniversary, and plans to become even more meaningful to our readers in cyberspace, we have been working on a number of ideas over the past few months. Over the past few years, we have launched the Cybermatrimonials network. It puts interested people in touch with each other, and builds links leveraging cyberspace. This, together with the 'birthdays/anniversaries initiative', has been well appreciated by our readership. In the coming weeks, we will be announcing some new initiatives. But the immediate one is the launch of Goanet News Service and a network called Goanet- Careers. We are currently finalising the launch of the Goanet News Service, which will bring in some special and exclusive coverage from, on and about Goa. We are specially looking at how we can go beyond the mainstream, newspaper- based news circuit in Goa. We see Goanet as contributing to play a positive role in creating more space for the average Goan (and friend of Goa) to express themselves. We also look forward to bringing out more content that would be relevant to Goanetters of diverse age groups, interests and nationalities. News has long been a vital input for Goanet. We recognise its importance in keeping the Goan diaspora connected with Goa, in helping them understand their roots, and in playing a more critical role in making a difference to Goa and the lives of the people of the region, wherever they may be currently living. We are in the process of revamping our news setup, and should have better options shortly in place. You can expect to see the impact of the changes within the next fortnight. In the meantime, we would like to thank Joel D'Souza (GoaCom) and wish him well, for the news-summaries he has been offering our readers. Joel has followed the footsteps of Vishwas Chavan and Frederick Noronha, and has been one who has sent out daily news to the members of Goanet. Joel moves on to pursue other endeavours. His last news clippings will be posted at the end of January. We appreciate his contribution! Goanet-Careers is oriented towards career-related issues for our readers. More information will follow. How you can help Goanet: * Be a volunteer to report news happenings in your Goan community. * Be a volunteer to draw Goanet's attention to breaking news in cyberspace. * Opt to volunteer as a 'Goanet Overseas Ambassador', a 'GOA' island wherever you're located, building links between Goanet and the wider community of Goans and people interested in Goa. * Give feedback and suggestions regarding Goanet and its content. * Forward copies of news and postings to non-Goanetters (family and friends), and suggest that they sign-up if they'd benefit from this service. It is important to us that you give us feedback during this process so that we can tailor our services to provide you with the information you want and to do it efficiently and effectively. Your feedback matters! Thank you Goanetters for your support in the past decade as we continue to undertake our innovative journey in unchartered cyberwaters. Yours sincerely, Herman Carneiro Chair Goanet Admin GOANET -- BUILDING SOCIAL CAPITAL SINCE 1994. Social capital refers to the collective value of all 'social networks' and the inclinations that arise from these networks to do things for each other, according to Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone and the concept's leading exponent. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_capital

[Goanet]RIBANDAR thread
Dear Aires and members, I think it's clear that most of our members are tired of hearing about the Ribandar case over and over, especially when there have not been any significant developments. With that in mind, we're going to partially close the discussion. If a post is made about a significant development in the case we'll approve it. But, we'll only do it if there is a SIGNIFICANT development. Those of you who are interested in the case and would like updates, I suggest that you contact Aires directly. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to contact the Goanet Admin (copied above). Sincerely yours, Herman Carneiro Goanet Admin
RE: [Goanet]Betting odds?
Dear Tim, Ron and Mario, Point taken. A few responses preceded by ***. Quoting Tim de Mello [EMAIL PROTECTED]: (Copying this to Herman Fred as some of my posting to Goa-Net mysteriously disappear.) *** It's not fair to say that your posts mysteriously disappear as if we discard them underhandedly. We have nothing to gain by doing that. If an email is rejected from the forum an email automatically sent to you automatically by the mailing list program. We add comments informing you why it was rejected. If this is indeed happening, please send us an email and we'll look into it. Quoting Tim de Mello [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Most of the exchange of e-mails on the political stance of the US in Iraq, etc has been put forth by by some right wing leaning members. The have been well ariticulated and for the most part these discussions have been carried out in a civilized manner. The counter arguments have been put forward by many of our members who are very well regarded by the general membership. They have articulated and presented well balanced counter arguments. This debate, as far as content goes, IMHO, surpasses many other discussions that have taken place on this forum. These discussions have taken place between Goans who consider these arguments important. To take such arguments offline, as some of them did, deprives others of the discussion taking place. *** We, too, thought that the debate was being carried out in a civilized manner, which is why we let it go on as long as it did. However, we demand a certain etiquette in participating in debates because we need to be considerate to all our members. Sending 10 posts in an hour arguing every minute point is unacceptable. You and I might find the email load acceptable, but many of our members who do not have good internet connections do not. They simply unsubscribe depriving themselves of this and other discussions. I don't think that is fair. We repeatedly asked the participant involved to argue in a more concise manner, which he did not do. Furthermore, not all the members on the list were welcomed the debate. One well-regarded member asked Is this Goanet or Iraq-Net? We, therefore, decided to put and end to the debate. Quoting Tim de Mello [EMAIL PROTECTED]: There are many posts that keep popping up with fair regularity that I consider annoying and of little merit either to Goa or to the general membership. Consider, for example, the self promoting posts of Rene regarding Goa Day. Is it the opinion of the GoaNet Admin team that as long as the post contains the word Goa in it, any such drivel is acceptable? The decision to stop the debate is nothing more than small minded thinking by the Admin Team. And ridiculous! *** We have a difficult task of moderating posts. The decisions we make will never please everyone. But, all of you know full well that we do have debates that are of general interest but not related to Goa. One has only to browse the archives to be convinced. I think it's important for members to send us some feedback so that we can accommodate suggestions to improve the forum. Perhaps it's better to send us a discrete email rather than to single out people publicly. -- Herman Carneiro Goanet Admin

With many thanks and kind regards, Yours sincerely, (Prof. Newman Fernandes) Principal ST. XAVIER'S TOPS GOA UNIVERSITY RESULTS Students of St. Xavier's College have done extremely well in the University Exams and secured First Rank for TYBA, TYBCom and TYBSc, 2004 exams. Indeed, it is for the first time that students of these 3 streams have bagged first position in Goa University results, in this College or any other college in Goa. Ms. Yolanda Lobo and Ms. Ramona Soares obtained the first position in TYBCom with 538 marks each out of 700. Ms. Trupti Chodankar secured the Third rank for the same exam with 533 marks out of 700. Last year also, two students from our College had shared the First rank and secured Third rank too. Ms. Yolanda Lobo is the daughter of Mr. Francisco Lobo and Ms. Patty Lobo from Calangute. She is a distinction student throughout her academic career. She has participated in several contests and her performance has been always extremely good. She is going to pursue a career in Management at Goa Institute of Management Studies for which she has already been selected. She wants to specialise in Finance. Ms. Ramona Soares is a very popular sportswoman and has represented the College in many sports disciplines. She is the daughter of Mr. Roque Soares and Ms. Elsa Soares from Caranzalem. She takes active part in cricket, table tennis, basketball and handball. She intends to become a Company Secretary. Yolanda and Ramona represented the College at the South Indian Level Business Contest ACME 2003 held in Mangalore and were exposed to what is happening elsewhere in India. Ms. Trupti Chodankar is very hard working student and hails from Colvale and is the daughter of Mr. Dinanath Chodankar and Ms. Pushpavati Chodankar. Her hobbies include reading, gardening and tailoring and she aspires to be Company Secretary. Ms. Natasha Braganca secured First Rank for TYBA obtaining 557 marks out of 700. Her specialisation papers were Economics and Psychology. She is the grand daughter of the famous poet Nascimento Mendonca. She is the daughter of Mr. Roy Braganza and Ms. Halina Braganca and hails from Mapusa. She was born in Berlin and has just proceeded to Dubai where she received the news of her excellent performance with great joy. She plays the keyboards with a rare perfection and is the member of the family singing group. Ms. Faminda D'Souza had the privilege of securing First Rank with 618 marks out of 700 at the TYBSc examination with specialisation in Computer Science. Her performance has been constant at Distinction level throughout her academic career just like Natasha. She is the daughter of Mr. Francisco D'Souza and Ms. Eudes D'Souza from Calangute. She is proactive and was crowned as MISS XAVIER for the year 2003-2004. This is an extraordinary event where there has been a convergence of ranks at St. Xavier's. All these 5 students attribute their success to hard work, God's grace, parents' guidance and teachers' support. They vouch for the role the College has played in terms of creating a conducive environment for their all round development. - End forwarded message -

[Goanet]SPORT: India claim historic win (Cricket)
Third Test, Rawalpindi, day four: Pakistan 224 245 lost to India 600 by an innings and 131 runs India secured a historic first series win in Pakistan after strolling to victory by an innings and 131 runs in the third Test in Rawalpindi. Anil Kumble cleaned up the tail to return 4-47 as the hosts were dismissed for 245 soon after lunch. Asim Kamal struck a brave 60 not out despite batting with an injured elbow. The verdict sees Sourav Ganguly move ahead of Mohammad Azharuddin as India's most successful Test captain with 15 victories. It also capped India's first series win away from home since they defeated Sri Lanka 1-0 in a three-Test series in 1993. The hosts, 49-2 overnight, put on 148 for the loss of five wickets in an eventful first session, with Lakshmipathy Balaji striking twice to return 3-108. They slumped to 95-4 before Kamal, who took a pain-killing injection at the crease to treat an injured elbow, put on 81 for the sixth wicket with Yousuf Youhana, who made 48. Enough action was crammed into the first hour of play to befit a full day's play, with three wickets, six dropped catches and an array of curious strokeplay all potential highlights material. The fireworks started in the first over, with nightwatchman Kamran Akmal hitting Balaji for three boundaries and still finding time to be given a life by a snoozing first and second slip. The normally ultra-reliable Yuvraj Singh then dropped the easiest chance he will ever get at forward short-leg, but Kamal ran out of lives in the third over when Balaji uprooted his off-stump. Pakistan's predicament required some prudence, but Yasir Hameed was having none of it, offering two chances - to Sachin Tendulkar and Anil Kumble - which India politely spilled. Ironically, it required a catch of true quality to remove him, keeper Parthiv Patel taking a one-handed gem down the leg-side in Ashish Nehra's one-over first spell. Skipper Inzamam-ul-Haq, who pledged to lead Pakistan out of the mire after play on the third day, was given an early life by Rahul Dravid in first slip off the luckless Balaji. But he soon went - reducing the hosts to a parlous 94-5 - faintly edging Balaji to Patel and walking, despite umpire Rudi Koertzen looking motionless before offering a raised finger. Pakistan looked set for a quick death with two new batsmen at the crease, but Youhana and Kamal showed some welcome fight. The sixth-wicket pair traded largely in boundaries, taking the score along to 175 and offering the home crowd some hope. That hope disappeared with the dismissal of Youhana, caught and bowled by Kumble. The leg-spinner found himself on a hat-trick in his next over after having Mohammad Sami caught by Dravid for a first-ball duck. Shoaib Akhtar swung hard at the ball for a streaky boundary down to third-man, and kept swinging to take 18 runs off the over before Pakistan lunched on 197-7. The end soon came after the break, with Shoaib and Fazl-e-Akbar falling to Kumble to take the leg-spinner's career haul to 397 wickets. Indian players were sent into rapturous celebrations when Tendulkar's removal of Danish Kaneria, caught by Ganguly, ended the match. Pakistan: Inzamam-ul-Haq (captain), Imran Farhat, Taufeeq Umar, Yasir Hameed, Yousuf Youhana, Asim Kamal, Kamran Akmal, Mohammad Sami, Shoaib Akhtar, Danish Kaneria, Fazl-e-Akbar. India: Sourav Ganguly (captain), Virender Sehwag, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, Parthiv Patel, Irfan Pathan, Lakshmipathy Balaji, Anil Kumble, Ashish Nehra.

[Goanet]Goanet's 9th Birthday
Today marks the Goanets nineth birthday. Launched on August 25th, 1994, Goanet was the first mailing list for Goans worldwide. Id like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have helped make Goanet a success. I cannot possibly name everyone who has been instrumental in its success. We've had various organizations host us and given us a platform to grow such as Northeastern University and GOACOM. We have various people contribute to discussions at various times. Theyve made the list interesting and lively. We also have silent members who show their support by just being subscribed to the list and help us when called upon. They play an important role too for we cannot have everyone posting to the list. Many thanks for all of you for your role in Goanet's success. There is a group, however, which I would like to send special thanks to the Goanet admin team. Heres to our present volunteers Vivian Coelho, Fred Noronha, Bosco D'Mello abd Vincente Fernandes, who work hard behind the scenes to ensure our lists run smoothly. Thank you for all your hard work! And, thank you too to all the volunteers who have previously helped us. In the future Id like to see the Goanet community become more involved with Goan communities worldwide. Goanet is a unique tool through which we can work together to help each other. Id also like to see more people to participate in discussions and become more active in our community. Together we can make this list vibrant and more attractive. Goanets birthday is something for us all to celebrate. Id like to invite you to share your Goanet experience with us, whether you are an old-timer or a new comer. Viva Goanet!!!

[Goanet] [Fwd: Basic Course in Naturopathy]

Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2003 22:47:56 +0530 Dear Sir, Greetings from Moira ! Please put this on to your mailing list of Goa Net if you find it useful. Thank you in anticipation. Kind regards, Fr.Prakash OP *** BASIC COURSE IN NATUROPATHY Conducted by Fr. M. Britto Joseph S.J. This is a two-day workshop focussing on the philosophy and principles of Nature Cure. Nature can heal us and enable us to maximise our health, if we allow her to do so. To do this, we need to understand the principles of Nature, for it is in these principles that the keys to our cures are found. The workshop brings a practical awareness of Man's relationship with all the other elements in the living environment, and the interplay between these elements. What happens when there is an imbalance among the elements, and how balance can be regained, which brings health. Simple natural remedies that can cure or alleviate physical suffering are surprisingly to be found in the home itself, in humble herbs and spices usually not thought of. When incorporated into the everyday diet, these articles of food can go a long way in supporting other nature-consonant treatments to cure a variety of ailments. How to handle small everyday health problems that crop up, without having to rush to doctors or pop chemical pills with harmful side-effects? This is a question which young parents are often faced with, as well as people who have a high susceptibility to ailments, and seem to pass from one ailment to another. How can major ailments be avoided, and so unnecessary hospital and medical bills be reduced in the long run? You will be surprised to learn how many simple natural alternatives there are, which when incorporated in your lifestyle, will maintain your state of health, improve it and bring you hope. By following natural principles as a way of life, all these things are possible, as well as that most precious result of health continuing joy! The Glory of God is Man Fully Alive For the first time in MOIRA, FR. BRITTO'S BASIC COURSE ON NATUROPATHY will be held at the Dominican Training Center, (DTC); Near St. Xavier's High School, MOIRA, Bardez on 15th and 16th February 03 from 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. For registration please contact: Fr.
