Sir/Madam,


Please publish following report in your esteemed publication and
obligeBhakti


Goa Carbon Limited Goodwill Ambassador and Woman Grandmaster Bhakti
Kulkarni continued riding on the success wave when she was declared best
woman player of Vaujany International Chess Festival in France today after
she defeated International Master Lucian Filip of Romania after 7 hours’
struggle in the 9th and final round.

Bhakti, the newly crowned Commonwealth Champion from Goa scored 6 points
from 9 rounds and was way ahead of Woman Grandmaster Sabina-Francesca
Foisor  (4.5) of USA. She drew with Grandmaster Horvath from Hungary on the
way to win her beautiful trophy. “I am amazed by the profound understanding
of chess this girl has shown,” commented the GM from Hungary after he
proposed truce in their battle.

Veteran French trainer Jean-Pierry Mercier was more eloquent. “I can see
Bhakti among the top women players of the world in two years if she
continues in the same manner,” predicted the veteran who trains 100 French
players every year.

The Commonwealth Woman Champion from Madgao gave the credit of her string
of successes to her trainer and Dronacharya Awardee Raghunandan Gokhale.
“Sir has transformed my game by making me play more aggressively,” Bhakti
said.

“Bhakti deserves civic reception for her Commonwealth Woman Championship”,
Gokhale commented.”It is not everyday occurrence that a Goan wins
International Gold in senior category.” The Central Government will honour
Bhakti for the Gold medal, according to the coach.

*Nitish Has Big Impact*

While Bhakti was busy collecting 31 Elo points from her showing, Geno
Pharmaceuticals Brand Ambassador and Commonwealth Under 14 Silver medalist
Nitish Belurkar shocked International Woman Master Renata Gazik  of Poland
in the final round. “It was big experience for 12 year old Nitish to play
among the elites of European chess and he surpassed my expectations by
gaining 37 International rating points,” remarked ace coach Raghunandan
Gokhale before adding “I am expecting Nitish to come out and play fighting
chess to give justice to his talent in his future tournaments.”

Nitish will take part in Dubai Open Junior Chess Championship next month
and eyes medal in World Youth Championship in South Africa in September.

URGENT PRESS STATEMENT 



Dolphy Dsouza, Convenor Police Reforms Watch- Mumbai reactions:  POLICE 
REFORMS WATCH-Mumbai condemns the Governor of Maharashtra's decision to give 
his assent to the regressive Maharashtra Police Amendment Bill, 2014. It has 
been confirmed that the Governor has signed the Bill which was passed by both 
Houses of the Legislature on 14th June 2014, with no changes. The Governor has 
given assent even after meeting a civil society delegation led by Shri Julio 
Rebeiro, accompanied by Mr. Satish Sahney, Ms Maja Daruwala of the Commonwealth 
Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) and Mr. Dolphy Dsouza -Police Reforms Watch, 
which met him on June 30 to express how brazenly the Bill denigrates police 
reform. The delegation had urged the Governor to invoke his powers under 
Article 200 of the Constitution to send recommended changes for the 
consideration of both houses of the State Legislature.

This Bill, now set to become law, is not in the interest of the state. It 
is anti-police and anti-people. The political class has had its way. The right 
thing would have been for the Bill to amend the Maharashtra Police Act 1951 to 
incorporate the directives of the Supreme Court in the Prakash Singh case. But 
the Bill is brazenly designed to defy every single one of the Court's 
directives. Besides the stakeholders in this case, the Citizens were totally 
ignored before this Bill was passed. 

The public are going to bear the brunt of such a bad law which will lead to 
policing completely captured by political compulsions. 

PRW Mumbai expresses its grave disappointment at the failure of the 
Governor to use his high constitutional authority to prevent this Bill in its 
current form from becoming law. 

Our next course of action:

We will now take the campaign against the Bill in the people's court. We 
will organise meetings with citizens, various womens groups and ngo's to raise 
their voices against such a regressive Bill. We will also be interacting with 
the different political parties and their leadership demanding that they 
include a better law for policing in their manfesto. And if they come to power 
they will amend this bill which is not in the interest of the public for better 
policing for a safer mumbai/maharashtra.

We want to make this a poll issue and demand ABKI BAAR SACCHA POLICE 
SUDHAR.

Maja Daruwala Director of CHRI which closely monitors police reform said in 
reaction to the news that the Governor had signed the 2014 Maharashtra Police 
Amendment Act.  


 To say that the Governor has signed a law that goes completely contrary 
to the Supreme Court directions while pretending to comply with it is to say 
too little. This law is a disaster for the police and the public. It has never 
been discussed in public and is to my mind a fraud on the public.  It reduces 
the possibility of good policing to zero and in the end endangers everyone's 
security. All this pious stuff about ensuring better safety for women is an eye 
wash when you look at the brazen way the new law politicises the police. All 
the bad practice of interfering with the everyday functioning and management of 
the police has now been enacted into law. The Governor was wrong not to advise 
caution and reconsideration. It is an extremely sorry situation for a fine 
State like Maharashtra.

Re: [Goanet] What does your school PTA say about admitting kids with HIV?

2014-07-19 Thread Jose

 jc (3) : My experience with HIV kids is surely not as vast as yours. Even 
 so, please advise us: 
 [A] Were THOSE HIV+ individuals CD4 regularly monitored and treated with 
 anti-retroviral 
 medications?  
 [B] Were THOSE HIV+ individuals TB tested and treated if necessary? 
 [C] Were THESE HIV+ ORPHANS managed according to the same regimen THOSE 
 individuals were/are?
 
 On Jul 18, 2014, at 8:22 PM, Mervyn Lobo mervynal...@yahoo.ca wrote:
 
 Doc, the short answer is that HIV+ people are monitored much more closely 
 than those without HIV. The reason, I am told, is that HIV+ people are much 
 more susceptible to diseases. TB being the leading cause of death for them. 
 Again, since HIV+ kids are monitored much more closely, I feel those with TB 
 will be identified much more faster than kids who are not HIV+. In other 
 words, there is a greater danger of finding a TB Mary in the non-HIV 
 population than in the HIV+ population.

Dear Mervyn,

Let us make a deal.
As I do not understand much about Gold et other investment, I will NOT debate 
with you on the topic of financial investment.

As I am NOT sure if you know enough about whether or NOT these Rivona HIV+ve 
kids were adequately monitored and managed, I will not debate further with you 
on that topic either.

I'd suggest, however, that there usually is a serious difference between the TB 
contracted (and transmitted) by an HIV+ve person and that by a non-HIV+ve 
person. Though, in many parts of the world, India included, that difference is 
being blurred.

BTW: I notice that a BJP personality has chosen to abuse the Church with this 
HIV issue.

BRAVO !

[Goanet] what are the parent`s expectation in educating children?

2014-07-19 Thread Nelson Lopes
   What are the parent`s expectations?

Happines is the primary aim of education, which connotes various other
derivatives

Only those  that are in a happy state of mind  , will  be able to transmit
this trait effectively in their offspring’s.  The present generation with
all the scientific progress and amenities seemed to be more stressed and
depressed in comparison. The time saved on monotonous, routine activities
is spent in front of T,V. Hence the ratio of depressed individuals is one
in five for women and one in six for men and is very alarming. We make
these choices willingly and consciously at most time and hence suffer the
consequences.

The main focus of the parents is study, scoring and faith in tuitions right
from K.G classes. It builds tremendous pressure to excel under all
circumstances. There is hardly any time for the children both at school and
home to engage in sports and other creative activities. The accent should
be on effective concentration, which could two hours daily. ,In stead the
students learn to waste time, disinterested , develop hate and aversion
with academic pursuits at all times

Happiness must spring from within through involvement of creative
activities, rather than momentary pleasures What are the parent’s
expectations

.

 The basic reason to educate children is to make them happy and which
connotes various derivatives. If the parents themselves are not happy
individuals in their relationshipsderived by activities from outside
(listening to music, T.V. video games, and mobiles)

Health is another factor that contributes to happiness. Unfortunately the
clamour for junk food has led to the development of life style diseases in
children too early in life. like obesity, heart , kidney, blood pressure
and diabetes Emphasis on healthy diet is the urgent need. Both the Parents
and children need to have regular exercise and permit children to actively
engage in sports. Children imbibe the habits from parents The schools too
give precedence to academic results more than sports participation in their
appreciation, recognition, rewards, Fortunately this mentality is
undergoing a sea change with sports achievements given credits

 Interpersonal relations help to resolve conflicts and problems
satisfactorily. Looking beyond ourselves gives a broader perspective and
meaning to life. In ability to manage conflicts leads to unhappiness and
violent explosion in behaviour. Parents that value, encourage interpersonal
relations lay a good foundation, In chasing happiness the satisfied
attitude leads to stagnation and hence creative, fulfilling tasks elevate
abilities with satisfaction to a new level

Finance too has bearing on happiness, Parents slog to meet the un called
for  demands and satisfy children   and as a result have less interaction
with them .

Happy, confident children are the dream of all parents. To realise it ,they
must effectively and actively engage in studies and  sports, Healthy diet,
health, exercise interpersonal relations and finance, time management can
achieve the desired state of happiness, which is the ultimate goal of
education



Dr Bevinda Viegas Muller is a practicing psychiatrist, a multi faceted
personality, a writer, columnist  a sports enthusiast. The synopsis is the

The history of early Goan emigration needs to be written   
By Eduardo Faleiro
lokseva...@gmail.com

Sometime ago, I visited several villages and towns in the neighbouring 
districts of Maharashtra and Karnataka to meet people of Goan origin settled 
there. During the 16th and 17th centuries thousands of Goans, both Hindus and 
Christians, left Goa to escape religious and cultural persecution.


GL responds:

Goan emigration over the eras (including Portuguese era) stemmed from:
1. Religious and Cultural persecution (as mentioned above).
2. Wars and / or threats of wars.
3. Epidemics.
4.  Droughts and famines.
5. Economic opportunities.

[Goanet] Of Goa and Literature: Unexpected Growth + Dividends

2014-07-19 Thread V M
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/Of-Goa-and-literature-Unexpected-growth-and-dividends/articleshow/38637759.cms

Meena Kandasamy had many suitable places to choose for her book launch
last month. The brave, brilliant poet, translator and activist's first
novel was already garnering serious acclaim in the UK—where she spends
much of her time—and her hometown is Chennai, while India's publishing
capital remains New Delhi.

But all of those places lost out to Goa, and 'The Gypsy Goddess' was
released at the International Centre in Dona Paula, with Padma Shri
awardee Norma Alvares enthusiastically recommending the book to a rapt
audience that went on to buy several dozen copies.

This kind of event was unthinkable just a few years ago. India's
smallest state was widely regarded as a cultural backwater, and even
authors based in Goa would strive to showcase and launch their books
elsewhere. More than just perception, it was a reality that there
weren't very many sophisticated readers or book buyers anywhere to be
found. But like other aspects of life in the fast lane of the 21st
century, this scenario has now changed dramatically, and we are now
actually witnessing the emergence of Goa as a new cultural capital for
the region.

Goa is such a literary place, said Amitav Ghosh rather generously at
his book reading some years ago at Literati bookshop in Candolim. One
of the world's most distinguished novelists and writers, he had begun
to spend some months each year in the state. His endorsement
immediately had a perceptible ripple effect on other writers and
artists who seemed to wake up en masse to the potential of living and
working part-time in Goa. Today there is a sizable contingent of
India's best creative talent quietly sheltering in villages across the
landscape—Literati itself has hosted a frankly astonishing array of
bold face names from Nobel prize winners on down—and Ghosh's kind
words have become established conventional wisdom.

One of the reasons for this very new perception of Goa as a premium
cultural space is undoubtedly the Goa Arts and Literature Festival
(which this writer helps to organize). Without state or corporate
support, this unique annual event hosted primarily at the
International Centre has consistently pursued a theme of different
ways of belonging (the phrase is from a poem by the great Goan poet,
Eunice de Souza) to build formidable showcases and lasting bridges to
the margins: the North-East, Kashmir, Pakistan, translations,
poetry, graphic novels. In recent years, the festival and its
organizers have pulled off a series of startling coups, including many
significant India debuts (Nigerian-American novelist Teju Cole,
Punjabi-American rapper Himanshu Suri) and exclusive book launches (by
Bilal Tanweer, Amruta Patil, Ranjit Hoskote, Jerry Pinto, Naresh
Fernandes, dozens more).

But even more significant developments are taking place across the
breadth of Goa's scene, spurred by terrific private initiatives and
public policies. By far the most important is the renewed, highly
creditable emphasis given by the department of art and culture to the
state's entire library network, with special focus on the superb new
Central Library at Patto. The new building is widely acknowledged as
the best of its kind in the country, and, amazingly, it has tripled
membership in two years, with much of the increase being children.
Huge, lasting credit is due the department of art and culture's
director Prasad Lolayekar for his visionary leadership and
contribution here.

However, cultural revolutions of the kind Goa is experiencing cannot
be sustained by one or two centres of excellence.

In fact, many engines have emerged for the steady growth and
development of literary awareness and readership in Goa. The
non-profit Bookworm takes books into schools across the state,
ceaselessly promoting early readership. Commercial bookshops like
Literati and Broadway Books also do a fine job promoting the
burgeoning catalogues of the state's own, increasingly able boutique
publishing houses like Margao-based Cinnamon Teal (which hosts
Publishing Next, the annual national conference on the future of
publishing), Saligao-based Goa 1556, and Panjim-based Rajhauns.

Groups like the Goa Writers group and Goa Book Club actively discuss
and debate books from and about Goa, creating a level of awareness
that simply did not exist a few years ago.

In an age of global digital distraction and falling readership, every
publisher knows that India is one of the few places where the love of
books is actually growing, with ever-larger numbers of readers and
buyers. Though entirely unanticipated, it is impressive to see Goa
repositioned squarely in that limelight.

Dear Dr. Falcão,

Thank you. 

One error, some among us are making is that of automatically assuming that 
STANDARD protocols are being followed OR that the protocols are unimportant.

good wishes

[Goanet] WHY THERE SHOULD HAVE ROTATION FOR TOP POSTS IN GMC?

2014-07-19 Thread Stephen Dias
Dear Editor
Navhind Times

Dear Sir,

I have read the news report from Navhind Times dated 20th July 2014 title 
HEALTH DEPT PROPOSES ROTATION OF TOP POSTS IN GMC AND GDC ;  please note
my comments;

This message may be published as you wish  Sir,  in the interest of public.


COMMENTS;

I do not understand why there should have rotation first of all. Was there
any drawback from these higher posts of Dean GMC and  Dean Goa Dental
College?  If rotation is approved by Goa Government would there be any
continuity of work or duties assigned by previous Heads? Will there be any
accountability of what the new head will be doing? If this proposal goes
through than  definitely going to be a fiasco in the administration of both
the Institutions and ultimately the patients, doctors  and students might
have to bear the consequences. Will the Goa Govt will scrutiny or study
this case before it get sanctioned?
If I say there should be also rotations in GOA Health Ministry and within
their own MLA's;  Will they agree?
