( 1961 ) Response: Yes, I supose it could be done today even if one has not been to Savantwadi or Karwar.. Let us begin: There is one thing common between Goa and Savantwadi/Karwar (SK) and that is they all speak a common language Konkani; But there were quite a number of differences . In Goa they revere Christ whereas in SK they believe in Rama, Krishna, Shiva etc. In Goa common people wear pants and shirts, in SK they wear dhotis. In Goa they lived in small mud houses,and in a few thatched huts, in SK they lived mostly in huts and in a few mud houses. One could go on and on. But then the question arises; Is the improved superficial appearances of Goans vs SK entirely due to the Portuguese influence in Goa ? One does not know. It could perhaps be due to the gloriosa missao civilizadora de Portugal and its Patriarch who was ably assisted by local sacerdotes belonging to the highest Hindu caste. Here I could introduce my humble suggestion that it all could have been due to postal remittances of thousands and thousands Goans who toiled hard in the then British India and also on board of ships.

However, I did notice many times, that they do appear on the above days only. Mam or Sorop (Snake) story also goes with it or with some type of Mushrooms. 'Rovonn' or 'Rovnnikode' words are also associated with it. There are another type of mushroom, similar but very tiny and they would bloon abudandtly. Again, Sunday/Wednesdays. If one neigbour sees it, he/she will inform all. Seen people collecting them with 'Sup' or other small baskets. We either made chilly fry or made 'Dall' or 'Goddxem' of it.

Books will be available for sale and signing. September 3, 2009 7-9 pm Aicon Gallery, 35 Great Jones St., NYC. Suggested donation at door: $10 Essay by William Darymple Published by Seagull Books Synopsis provided by Publisher: Located on the west coast of India along the Arabian Sea, Goa officially became an Indian state in 1987 after nearly 500 years of Portuguese rule. This conflict of cultures is captured by Indian photographer Prabuddha Dasgupta in The Edge of Faith. The book’s 70 striking photographs create an intimate portrait of the Catholic community in Goa rarely seen before—a portrait of people torn between their fidelity to a history of Portuguese faith and culture and their post-Independence Indian identity. In addition, acclaimed travel-writer William Dalrymple provides an accompanying text that explores both the history of Goa’s Catholic past and its struggle to deal with its multi-cultural, multi-religious present. The Edge of Faith captures Catholic Goa in a haunting, but beautiful impasse—caught in a time warp between comforting nostalgia and a doubt-ridden, insecure future. About Prabuddha Das Gupta: Prabuddha Dasgupta is a self-taught photographer who grew up in the cultural chaos of post-colonial India. In 1996, Prabuddha Dasgupta broke a taboo by publishing 'Women' (Viking Books), a controversial collection of portraits and nudes of urban Indian women. With that gesture, he reinstated the nude to its rightful place in the Indian cultural discourse; after 200 years of Victorian morality imposed by the British colonialists had almost erased sexuality from artistic expression... in the very home of the Kamasutra. In the decade that followed, Dasgupta pursued a variety of photographic projects, while unapologetically straddling the two worlds of commissioned and artistic work, bringing to both, a bold, individualistic sensibility that very quickly placed him in the ranks of major photographic talent in the country. Dasgupta's work has been exhibited internationally, both in solo and group shows, and published in Indian, French, English, Italian and American magazines. His second book 'Ladakh' (Viking Books), a personal exploration of India's frontier wilderness was published in 2000 and his work is included in many books publications including 'Nudi' (Motta Editore, Milan) and 'India Now - New Photographic Visions' (Textuel, Paris). He is also the recipient of many grants and awards, including the Yves Saint Laurent grant for photography in1991, and his work is in the collections of many individuals and institutions, like the Museo Ken Damy, Brescia, Italy, and Galleria Carla Sozzani, Milan, Italy. Dasgupta is represented in India by Bodhi Art and lives between New Delhi and Goa. About Mira Nair: Accomplished Film Director/Writer/Producer Mira Nair was born in Bhubaneswar, India in 1957. Educated at both Delhi University and Harvard University, Nair began her artistic career as an actor before turning her attention to film. She found incipient success as a documentary filmmaker, winning awards for So Far From India and India Cabaret. In 1988, Nair’s debut feature, Salaam Bombay!, was nominated for an Academy Award, Golden Globe, and BAFTA Award for Best Foreign Language Film. It also won the Camera D'Or (for best first feature) and the Prix du Publique (for most popular entry) at the Cannes Film Festival as well as 25 other international awards. Nair’s next film, Mississippi Masala, an interracial love story set in the American South and Uganda, starring Denzel Washington and Sarita Choudhury, won three awards at the Venice Film Festival including Best Screenplay and The Audience Choice Award. Subsequent films include The Perez Family (with Marisa Tomei, Anjelica Huston, Alfred Molina and Chazz Palminteri), about an exiled Cuban family in Miami; and the sensuous Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love, which she directed and co-wrote. Nair directed My Own Country based on Dr. Abraham Verghese's best-selling memoir about a young immigrant doctor dealing with the AIDS epidemic. Made in 1998, My Own Country starred Naveen Andrews,

Contact: goaengineer...@aol.com *This article was published in the Herald of today but I cannot read it in the web version.. Any reasons..?? * *We are the Church* *By. Almir de Sousa* Because of his intelligence and expertise in historical matters I had certain regard for Teotonio R. De Souza. I lost it today after reading his Article “Church in Goa: Servants, slaves and rebels”. ( Herald, 29 August, 2009) The article is not worth of any person of certain standard much less a Historian and Professor of Teotonio’s calibre. It is full of insinuations, undocumented quotations and calling of names to those who oppose him. At the end of the article I asked myself , “ Why this personal attack in the garb of a ‘historical lecture’? Would Teotonio have a personal grudge against the Archbishop?”, Because the whole article comes to that. According to him all the members of the Church could be divided into three categories: servants, slaves and rebels. ‘Slaves’ would be those who defend the Church and attack him; ‘Rebels’ would be all those who attack the Church. All the others would be ‘servants’. He would place himself in the category of “rebels” and carve a glorified niche for himself together with others like Fr.Dupuis or Fr. Bermejo. The last two may have had their own difficulties with Vatican Authorities but they remained in the Church to serve her with all dedication, because they did not love themselves but the Church. We should avoid two types of Pharisaisms: one to be in the Church, observe all the laws and regulations to the last detail and consider ourselves as ‘ perfect ones’ and condemn all others as ‘publicans’; the other one is of those who for reasons of their own opted to be outside the Church but consider themselves and boast as the ‘perfect ones’ and call the ones who are still in the Church ‘slaves or chamchas’. Both equally wrong and to be condemned. The article of Teotonio is full of insinuations: regarding the ”loyal servants of the Church in Goa, both clergy and laity,” belonging to “dominant castes” of “the finance and other administrative committees” including the “relatives of priests” and “ of the archbishop”. He seems to be basing his article on hearsay and quotes the opinion of one person as if that opinion was sacramental and infallible: Just two examples: 1. *“Someone even mentioned the Bishop’s pastoral visits as useless exercise…”* It may be true, there are always a few who will not do anything themselves and whatever others do will find as “useless exercise”. So what to conclude from there? Should the Bishop stop his pastoral visits? And what about all others, hundreds of them, who have exactly the opposite view? I can quote for one: in my Parish a well reputed Teacher, housewife and Mother of three children, after the pastoral visit of the Archbishop ,told me that she had attended all the talks of the Archbishop and that she did not feel bored at all on the contrary they were of great help to her personal and family life. She is not a ‘chamcha’ neither she teaches in a Catholic School. This is just one example. 2. Again Teotonio quotes “some parishioners of the new Porvorim parish” who “approached” him during his “brief stay in Goa” and “revealed their discontent over the lack of transparency and accountability of the generous funds collected from the parishioners for extending the parish residence”. Instead of going to the press with such insinuations would it not be better if he had sought clarification directly from the Parish Priest of Porvorim, who happens to be his co-villager? For that matter how would Teotonio like if I had written to the Papers saying that “someone has approached me” and revealed that Teotonio had mismanaged the Funds of the Xavier Centre of Historical Research when he was at the helm of that Centre? It looks that Teotonio and a few like him want to divide the Church in Goa in two classes: Priests and Laity and incite the Laity against the Clergy. The picture of the Church given by Teotonio is all wrong. There are no “Servants, slaves and rebels” in the Church . There are sons and daughters in the Church. The Church is the Body of Christ and we, the Bishops, Priests and Laity are the members of this Body; the Church is the People of God and we all are this people, we belong to the Church, *we are the Church.* Though the Church is founded by Christ yet it is human and consists of human members. These human members, Pope, Bishops, Priests and Laity, are

It was nostalgic for the older folks present and an opportunity for the younger generation particularly of Mumbai to have a peek of what Konkan culture is all about. The skit Ghotallo was a sort of suspense with a lot of humor. The audience enjoyed every bit of action particularly the dialogues. GRAF promotes Konkani in big way. Besides the cultural programmes, there were literary competitions conducted during the year. WKD'09 was a big opportunity to honor and recognize the winners with rewards. The following were the winnersof Konkani literary awards: In Konkani essay writing: Jose Silveira - first Prize and Alisha D'Costa - consolation Prize.

President of GRAF- Fausto V. da Costa in his welcome address stressed on the importance of the unity of all Konkani speaking people and preserving the rich heritage of Konkanis for posterity. The chief guest Fr Francis Ramesh, director of Kalangan called upon the gathering to use their mother tongue Konkani and spread it among the new generation by speaking the language. Entrepreneur and renowned Banker Mr. John D'Silva graced the occasion as the guest of honour. In the keynote address of the day, Mr. Lawrence D'Souza, Kamani highlighted the rich treasures of the Konkani language and the progress it has made so far. The cultural programme was followed by dancing sessions in which the gathering took part enthusiastically and took away a number of spot prizes. All in all this WKD , for all the people attending the function , about 300 people, was a day of learning the significance of WKD. Besides this everyone enjoyed the display of the rich Konkan heritage and culture. Last but not the least the delicious Konkan culinary treat was enjoyed by all. (Renato Pereira)

They have fairly elaborate lists of Goa-related (mostly English focussed) books-in-print available with them. For obvious reasons, books are more affordable if purchased (in Rupee prices) in Goa itself. And some more additional details: Manoharrai Sardessai's Sahitya Akademi-published book is a steal at Rs 160. You can find part of the book free for an online read at Google books: http://books.google.com/books?id=1YILeUD_oZUCprintsec=frontcover#v=onepageq=f=false The General is Up is one of the Goa-related books hidden away at the P. Lal-run Writer's Workshop of Kolkata. Waiting to be bought and stocked for sale in Goa itself! Available at 25% discount, cash down for wholesalers, but the freight has to be borne by the buyer, Lal told me recently. I think the OIBS at Mapusa also has Peter Nazareth. When Agnelo Pereira's hb book was published nearly a decade ago, I thought it was a bit overpriced at Rs 300. Now it's good value for money. Fascinating illustrations of the Goa that was in the yesteryears. It's available at the OIBS too. Goa in the 20th century, another good book (has essays on Emissora de Goa and even the student movement of the 1970s-1990s) can be got from the Institute Menezes Braganza. I don't know why institutions simply hand over the job of book-selling... to booksellers! PS: This list is incomplete.

There was no need to hide the clerical prefix. It is also strange that he should identify me with just one role, as if a historian or a professor cannot have other social functions to perform! He failed to respond to most questions raised. Questions raised just by one or few persons do not become less valid or relevant than questions raised by a crowd. Floriano's lone voice is less relevant than of the large parties? But Floriano saw Fr. Almir's logic differently! And there is the oft repeated clerical defence of presenting the church as a body of sinners and liable to make mistakes! Are the priests any privileged sinners and beyond correction as any normal citizen? Almir seems to read Herald only when it suits him. The classification of servants and rebels was used by Dr. F.E. Noronha in the concluding para of his Opinion column in Herald. Almir attributes the originality to me and the whole harangue follows! Also several other conclusions he draws are emotional and non sequitur. Teotonio R. de Souza

Was just reading today that three Goans -- Milagres Pereira, Valentine Coelho and Anna Coelho -- received awards at the Couple to Couple League International Convention at North Carolina USA a few months ago. Quote: Vally Anna Coelho are the Co-Directors of the Couple to Couple League of India. They have a pro-life institute called 'Be-Attitudes' at Porvorim, Goa. They promote Natural Family PLanning, an abstinence-based birth regulation method -- that is highly effective, healthy and has no side effects -- through their involvement in Marriage Encounter and Engaged Encounter. They also conduct Theology of the Body programs, La Leche League meetings tos upport breastfeeding mothers, childbirth education classes, chastity programmes in schools and colleges and fertility awareness classes. Closequote. (Renewal, Nov 16-30, 2008.) Of course it's fine to find some option that fits into our worldview (religious, political or whatever). But I wonder about how effective this approach is, and also on the other hand the pressures on anyone taking such a stand in a world where the pressures of modernism and science are all that strong...

This Loh Purush had these melted in Mumbai to turn these into cooking utensils for his home. This is according to none other than his own daughter-in-law who was up in arms against this mad-man but he was successful in appeasing her afterall, just like he did the same with Liberhan Commission. The Commission report was timed in such a way (after 17 long years) by the time it was released, he expected to be sitting on the PM's chair. This Jako must go to jail, even if it is a token one day affair for the demolition of the Babri Masjid. 'Jo karne Gaye, who karke ayem' . These are his words according to his daughter-in-law. And he has the cheek to deny his involvement in the demolition. I had seen through this evil person a long time ago. When Manohar Parrikar's brother Audhut told me that I should consider joining the BJP ( circa 1993/4), as a good friend of course, I had said 'why not'? But there was one condition I had told him. Advani must be shut inside Tihar Jail. He had never pursued this or any other topic with me after this. I have openly declared that if Advani became India's Prime Minister, I, floriano lobo, would spit on his face if I got the chance. And I would do it too. You don't melt Gods that are gifted to you.

The Navhind Times reported under that title the release of Medieval Goa on 21st August, and to my personal protest with the journalist R. Raikar who interviewed me, he said that the title was decided by the Editor and not by him. My reference in the Concluding Chapter of the book is to a Jesuit report of the end of the 17th century in Salcete, describing how the great majority of the natives lived on bare sustenance. I sought to present this contrast at the end of two centuries of the Portuguese which are described in tourish brochure histories of Goa as Golden Goa, an expression popularised by the art historians. There was no idea of writing against the Portuguese as someone called Hennrique Salles da Fonseca who pops up occasionally on Goanet tried say in his intervention in the debate. Also his accusation that the University in Portugal is paying me goes to show that the Universities in Portugal have better standards of reesearch than what some such pseudo-patriots of Portugal wish to promote. Besides, the recognition of research nowadays is not the privilege of any one country and its political predilections. I only wish the debate does not extend unduly my conclusions about 17th century to later periods and more modern times.

One way of describe such a manner of lived reality / existence is being, vervetish -- after the vervet, a monkey species -- cercopithecus aethiops pygerythrus. They do not try to be like the striped-palm squirrel. Remember Lankeswar -- and the squirrel who helped Rama and the Vanara Sena at Adi bridge? Funabulus palmarum. They cannot be like that squirrel offering its mite. They cannot do it. They simply cannot include in their moral package a dose of egalitarianism, and it horrifies me to even say it — it would take them to a whole different level. They would be beloved. No question about it. As the Marathi proverb says, jitiachi khod mela shivai zat nay/nahin. Forget the maya in lan/m in Lanka -- ten soddunuch di, bhai mar hin kalpana, pun sanggonk zai, mhunnonk zai, shikovnk poddta. Yetolo deunchar ani kortolo sounsar. Oxxem mhuntlyar zata??!!

Contact: goaengineer...@aol.com Thanks Lapit, But it is still not clear who gave the ‘Melody King ‘ title to Lawry. Could it be Menezes Dramatic Troupe- members themselves? There can be so many princes but usually there is only one King. One cannot takes the King’s place automatically upon the death of the King. It’s not something like Indra Gandhi dies and Rajiv takes over or Rajiv dies and Sonia takes over. Lawry may be a King of other sorts but not the ‘Melody King’. There should not be hurry to fill up the vacant post. It’s not something like when one CM dies in the plane Crash, the next day another one become a CM. Let there be no Melody King for now. I am not saying, after Late Alfred Rose, no one should take his title ‘Melody King’ but at least for now , there is no one worth becoming Melody King. Lawry may be a best singer or one of the Melody Princes but definitely not the Melody King, at least not yet. I can agree with the titles like Man of thousand Faces, Dream Girl, Tragedy Queen, Tragedy King, Comedy Queen, Melody Prince, Charlie Chaplin, Master Character etc but not the Melody King.

Contact: goaengineer...@aol.com http://www2.macleans.ca/2009/08/27/do-you-notice-anything-shrivelling/ Excerpt: The other day CTV reported the astonishing statistic that in the whole of Canada there are just 33 sperm donors. That seems awfully low for a nation of 30 million people. Three sperm donors per province plus one per territory? Surely we can do better than that. All hands on deck! Ah, but it’s not as simple as that. Apparently, the 2004 Assisted Human Reproduction Act makes it illegal to pay donors for sperm. I mean, it wasn’t even the usual Canadian Wheat Board-type racket whereby you’d only be able to sell your seed to the Canadian Sperm Board at a price agreed upon by representatives of the federal-provincial Semen Commissions. Instead, they just nixed the whole deal, and, once Johnny Canuck found out he wasn’t going to be remunerated, virtually the entire supply dried up. As a result, this once proud Dominion now has to import sperm. According to CTV, 80 per cent of Canadian women who conceive through donor sperm are getting it from the United States, mainly from men in Georgia and northern Florida. Canada’s future is now in American hands. [end of excerpt]

Make up your own minds. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1210109/Prisoners-better-diet-Health-Service-hospital-patients-scientists-warn.html Excerpt: Patients in Health Service hospitals are far more likely to go hungry than criminals in jail, scientists warned yesterday. They say frail and elderly patients do not get the help they need with meals, and nobody checks whether they get enough to eat. Despite years of Government promises to tackle poor hospital nutrition, food still arrives cold, and patients often miss out because meal times clash with tests and operations. [end of excerpt]
[Goanet] Important information for Goan cancer patients

Contact: goaengineer...@aol.com Here is some important information regarding cancer that Goans and Goanetters should know because cancer is a serious disease that affects the lives of many Goans. Objective evidence obtained by rational and empirical research has shown that cancer is permanently curable if treated as early as possible and proper modern scientific medical treatment sought, without relying on anecdotes, gossip, false beliefs and fairy tales. By conducting painstaking and rigorous scientific research over the past decade or so, genuine cancer physicians and epidemiologists, prominent among whom is Prof. Hermann Brenner of Heidelberg, have determined that the permanent cure rate for all common solid cancers is 38% to 59% in women and 21% to 47% in men. For specific common cancers the cure rates are as follows: Breast cancer - 55% to 73% Prostate cancer - 14% to 63% Colon and rectum cancer - 25% to 49% Stomach cancer - 9% to 30% Lung cancer - 4% to 13% These cure rates were calculated by a European Working Group of 168 scientists, including Brenner, by studying registry data from hundreds of thousands of patients in 18 countries of Europe. If anybody wants to read this paper published just 4 months ago, I would be happy to send you a copy. Here's the reference: Francisci, S., R. Capocaccia, et al. (2009). The cure of cancer: a European perspective. Eur J Cancer 45(6): 1067-79. I would also be happy to provide data on other cancers, and explain how cure rates are calculated. It should be a good exercise to counter the bogus information disseminated through this public forum. Cheers, Santosh
