[Goanet] Fwd: BELARBINO REMEDIOS - Persona Grata

[Roland Francis]

Bel, as he is popularly known, is a soft-spoken and mild-mannered Goan born
in Kisii, in the highlands of western Kenya, about 300 kilometres from
Nairobi, to parents from Saligao who had strong roots to their ancestral
village though they lived most of their lives outside it. Kisii a small but
vibrant town, is home to most of Kenya's marathon runners.


At a tender age as there were no schools in Kisii, he was sent to Dr.
Ribeiro's in Nairobi and after finishing high school, his parents provided
him the opportunity to study pharmacology in England. After one year in
Plymouth and then in a full program in the old,  established Sunderland
School of Pharmacy, a part of Sunderland University, he graduated as a
pharmacist, going to work for Boots, a pharmacy retail chain. His
internship and experience there gave him the solid foundation for later
business life. It was in this span that Bel made a lasting friendship with
two Goan Kenyan lads, both of whom went on to become pharmacy
owner-operators in the U.K.  After working in Boots'  various stores as an
Associate, he was about to be given charge of his own pharmacy but by that
time he had made up his mind to emigrate to Canada.


Though Kenya was not in turmoil, the movement to replace Asians, even
native-born, with black Kenyans had already started.  Bel's parents and
sister had decided to move to Canada while he was still working in England.
Visiting once, he made up his mind that country presented better
opportunities for him and after a year he left Britain. The year was 1969
and he was 29.


Coming to Canada, Bel lost no time in qualifying for an Ontario
pharmacist's licence after a course in jurisprudence. He was fortunate that
Canada had a history of bias towards British education and that worked
nicely for him. Other international qualifications until very recently were
not recognized and the equivalencies provided were quite abominable. For
example an undergrad of Bombay University was given the equivalency of high
school although Indian education and indeed of all Commonwealth countries,
closely mirrored that of England in those days. If you ask anyone who has
completed degrees in both places for their opinion, as I asked,  you would
be told the Canadian education side paled in comparison.


After a six month internship on his arrival in Toronto with Shoppers Drug
Mart, the biggest pharmacy chain in Canada, he served as an Associate again
in various SDM outlets culminating with being given his own store in east
end Toronto as an owner-pharmacist. The challenges were many and the work
hard. There were shifts to manage, increases in store profit to constantly
meet and this took a toll on the time he had available to indulge in the
hobbies he loved. Coming to the notice of management, he was offered
another outlet with good potential, one with wealthier clients but a
 measly bottom line. Bel was known for his turn-around expertise. A few
years of his hard work and the suits in SDM were not disappointed with
giving him that store.


He hung up the white apron of his own volition in 2004 but was requested to
continue as a consultant until 2007 by which time he was mentally ready to
cut off all work ties and pursue a different but equally full life in
retirement.


Bel comes from a musical family. His father was trained in the discipline
and although his mother Lena Remedios and later Nunes was not, she was a
people person and sang, danced and entertained small and big crowds at
every opportunity until she died a few years ago. Lena was a pillar of the
community, an outstanding Konkani culture afficionado and one of the
founders and active participants of the Goan Cultural Group along with
Maggie Francis and her tri-generational family  and a few others. Lena also
taught Konkani to those enrolled for it. She is sorely missed in the city's
Goan and senior citizen circles.


 Bel plays the piano-accordion, his wife Melba is an accomplished pianist,
a Toronto University music B.A., and his daughter Maya an excellent
flautist. His son Nolan has done a TED Talk in Vancouver.


Bel loves making wine and has been doing it from his days in Boots. He
makes wine from virtually any fruit, fresh or dried and a good blackcurrant
wine from Ribena concentrate. At his Boots locations he would hold an
in-store wine making demo that was so popular with his customers that they
increased his sales in other products when they came in to see the demos.
He likes drinking wine but avoids it now because of arthritis. He has
always been a helpful advisor and answerer of questions of health and
prevention not only to clients, but friends as well. He was a
pharmacist-advisor from the days when it was not a value-added feature.


But aside from his family, his real love is photography. His first camera
was a Kodak Retinette given to him by his parents which still works and
which he cherishes. He recalls how he used this 'people picture' camera to
take pics of landscapes which was

Ok a pile on is it?

I asked simple questions to support statements made in a 
forum...Anything wrong with that?


I didn't expect someone to seemingly go crying home, shouting don't ask 
me questions about my stories and claims, I'll not answer them.



Having been involved in these kind of things, I believe the moderators 
and administrators are doing a wonderful job.


It a tough job. They have taken the liberal position...less moderation 
is better...give a silliness enough rope, and it will soon move to hang 
itself.


Hot balloons always burst when pricked by simple questions of reality.

There is no room for unsubstantiated claims on the internet. It's a two 
way street. Make claims, questions will be asked. Willful exaggeration 
will be called out.  Be a blowhard, and people will laugh.


GoaNet is a place of learning. We learn from the intelligent 
contributions, and the stupid ones as well. This liveliness is what 
makes GoaNet viable and the kind of venue that has survived and 
remaining vibrant for over two decades.


This is far, far more that most internet ventures have lasted, and far 
more than the length of contributions of individuals ...

Roland Francis,
This project is something that you could excel in and I wish you well.

It would be a nice idea to note down all the facts when you are gathering
information. It is of no use to write an article only to have the persona

[Goanet] Get Thee Backstage, Playwright! (Isabel de Santa Rita Vas)

[Goanet Reader]

Get Thee Backstage, Playwright!

Isabel de Santa Rita Vas
isabelsr...@gmail.com

Story-teller, yes. Always. Playwright? Not in my wildest
dreams. How on earth did I get to write for the stage?

  The truth is, I stumbled upon this playwriting
  stuff, having knocked about theatre as a teacher of
  young adults and a student of literature. The plays
  we began to stage were fascinating pieces by famous
  playwrights.

Works by Miller, Chekhov, O'Neill, Dattani, were followed by
adaptations from novels, films, poems. All these grounded us
firmly on a love of great literature and offered us a taste
of various genres, including some basic modes of viewing
life, i.e. comedy and tragedy, and many offshoots, revolts
and experimental forms.

A day came when the life around and within our own little
world demanded to be performed. And since no ready scripts
were at hand all wrapped up in fame, literary or theatrical,
our theatre group found itself at a crossroads: Either we
keep staging stories situated in other places or times, or...

Or what?

That was when I began to scratch out my own plots, create
characters, ponder over themes, and factor in the audience
response. It was not too painful a task, actually, since the
journeyman adapting for the stage now offered vital insights
and a measure of confidence. Now, I had a new brief: to give
voice to our own stories. And so I wrote A Leaf in the Wind,
my first play. Since it was written to be performed by The
Mustard Seed Art Company to which I belong, this very first
play I scribbled did find life on stage; as did most of the
35 plays that I have written over the years.

Writing for the stage has nudged me, implacably, to listen to
life as it unfolds in my immediate universe, demanding of
myself that I discern the significant from the trivial, and
that I hone in on stories and images and themes and tunes and
people that might offer a horizon for contemplation and
questioning. A crowded marketplace!

  Sandals on the Doorstep grew out of a newspaper
  report on a pair of young boys in a Goan village
  who murdered their old grandmother to steal and
  sell her jewelry to bet on an IPL match. A frenetic
  road-rage seemed to fit into this weft and warp of
  mindless violence taking monstrous shape within our
  homes and streets. The story had to be told. A
  picture that imprints itself in the mind's eye, a
  fragment of a story vaguely remembered, a character
  that has taken form within the half-light of one's
  consciousness, all these can pursue the playwright
  until the page and the stage make room for them.

Rarely is a play born full-blown in my mind. The germ of an
idea is exciting but tiny. The gestation period is long,
often frustrating, and absorbing of many hours of the day and
night. That's when I scribble on pages that get lost, hunt
for books, Google all manner of related matters, and glance
at my companions in the bus or on the street and see them
peopling my plays. There's reading and research to be
immersed into, headfirst.

My first encounter with a historical personage as my dramatis
persona was within the play Fiddlesticks!, the dramatized
life and times of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Knowing only that
his music resonated deeply and brightly within my soul, all
the rest had to be meticulously studied, the attempt made to
discover a viewing angle, the plunge taken to select, create,
modify, invent, shape, dramatize.

  Other characters from history have worked their way
  into my writing, people who had always intrigued
  me: Tagore (in Rabindrababu at the Post Office),
  Abbé Faria (in Kator Re Bhaji), Mahatma Gandhi
  (Spectacles of Peace), Mother Teresa (It's a Hot
  Day, Thank God), yes, everyday names that never
  grew pallid with familiarity; as also the many
  writers, artistes and other restless ghosts who
  people an ancient library (Ghosts at Large).

Events of historical import often hold you in their grip for
years, until they write themselves into your page, as in the
case of the story of the Liberation of Goa in Playing with
the Eye of the Dragon and the influential Opinion Poll in Goa
in Voices After Me.

These worlds reveal to the playwright new insights as the
voices of the powerful, less powerful or powerful in diverse
ways weave into a pregnant ballad. Small people from one's
childhood surface, such as the nearly invisible bhangi
(toilet cleaner) who used the silent service stairs to carry
away 'night-soil', or the poskem (adopted daughter) bent over
pots and pans while weaving tales of adventure, the wiry old
man wearing a red kashtti (small loin cloth) and a tight
pigtail on his otherwise shaven head who arrived down the
river punting a canoe filled with coconuts; these historical
characters announce their names and

[Goanet] AIFF PREVIEW REPORT: ‘YOUNG INDIA’ READY TO TAKE ON PUERTO RICO + GURPREET NAMED AS CAPTAIN + PIXS (6 ATTACHMENTS).

[AIFF Media]

*GURPREET NAMED AS CAPTAIN*


*‘YOUNG INDIA’ READY TO TAKE ON PUERTO RICO*


*AIFF Media Team*


*MUMBAI: *Figure this out -- 13 Players from the squad of 27 assembled in
Mumbai are below 23 years! When have India been so young? Ever?

A day prior to the match against Puerto Rico in the Official pre-match
Media interaction, National Coach Constantine mentions about the aim of
building the “pool of Players.”


“We are trying to build a pool of Players who would represent India for the
next 6-7 years. In fact, we already have built a sizeable group but there
will be additions,” Constantine stated. “Today there is a healthy
competition for each of the slots,” he states.


Indeed there is. You glance through the team sheet and will find out that
except for Sunil Chhetri, Subrata Paul, Jeje Lalpekhlua, Arnab Mondal and
Narayan Das, none among the 27 had ever played an International match prior
to Constantine taking over. ‘Work hard and play for India,’ has been the
ideology.


“Gurpreet Singh Sandhu will Captain the Team tomorrow against Puerto Rico,”
Constantine announced.


“One of the biggest plusses I have found with the Indian Players is their
thirst for knowledge. They want to learn and get better. It’s not hard to
teach Indian Players and they pick things up quite quickly. But you need to
be repetitive,” Constantine added.


Sunil Chhetri, the highest goal scorer for India in International Football
felt the younger crop stay much “aware of what needs to be done.”

“There are a lot of young ones in the squad. Today’s younger bunch is much
aware and professional as to what they need to do,” he certified.

Constantine also mentioned about the “quality” of Puerto Rico.


“They are a good side with many good Players. Yeah, one may mention about
their landing timing in Mumbai but you cannot take away their quality. Can
you?” he opined. “Puerto Rico were one of the best movers in the FIFA
Rankings. They are a very organised side.”


“They love to keep the ball and play it around. They are technically very
good. Once they are around the box they are very dangerous. Against USA
they split open the rival defence with three touches.”


‘Will India play defensive?’


“We are very motivated to play against a side ranked 114. If you want to go
higher it’s important that you play against stronger sides. I would rather
lose 4-0 to Iran than win 3-0 against a weaker Nation,” he argued.


“There will be no change to our approach. We will play the same manner we
played against Iran. We will play attacking Football.”

In fact, India’s approach against Iran had come in from high praise from
Carlos Quireoz who had said India were frustrated Iran with their attacking
mindset.


Constantine also praised Gurpreet’s attitude of “sticking in Norway.”


“People often say he went out to play abroad. But I would say that he
stayed out there and continued. And in a Country like Norway it’s not easy
at all and this guy has been fighting it out for the last three years.”


Gurpreet mentioned that it was quite a “struggle” to settle down.


“It was cold, extremely cold. I had to live alone which I had never done in
life. I had to use public transport which perhaps I have hardly done. On
top of that I had to cook and train. The initial days were difficult. But I
have settled down now.”


Chhetri pronounced that the Clubs and the National Team setup needs to “be
in sync.”


“The manner in which the very minute things are dealt at the National Team
setup need to be done at the Club level too — the nutrition, the food, the
rest – everything needs to be in sync. It will be much more beneficial when
it happens.”


A match in Mumbai was long overdue. It is a fantastic opportunity. The
pitch looks extraordinary.”


The kick-off at the Andheri Sports Complex on Saturday (September 3) is at
8pm and the match will be telecast live on Star Sports 2 and Star Sports HD
2 with live streaming on Hotstar.

[Goanet] Sankhali locals threaten to take out morcha over power cuts

[samir umarye]

rked over the frequent power failures in Sankhali, the residents of the
town have now threatened to take out a morcha if the electricity department
fails to improve the situation.

Digambar Naik of Sankhali Block Congress, said, “ There is a serious
electricity problem in the town. Electricity bills are sent after four
months and it becomes difficult for the general public to pay such huge
bills”. Coming down heavily on the government for failure to look into the
power problems, former MLA Pratap Gawas said, " There are power failures
for about 20 to 30 times in a day and the situation has been continuing
since the last several days." He said, “ Sankhali, which has three sub-
stations at Sankhali, Pali and Navelim experiences power failures in all
the sub- stations. At many places, there are old wires and poles, which
need to be replaced. But the department is not bothered to replace the
same. There is uninterrupted power supply to industries but households have
to suffer due to the power failures." “ Due to power fluctuations, many
electric home appliances and gadgets have been damaged,” he informed.

" If the situation does not improve, then we will have no other option but
to take out a morcha against the electricity department after the Ganesh
Festival," he warned.

“ Students cannot study during the night as there is no electricity and as
such they cannot concentrate on their studies and the residents too are
forced to spend sleepless nights,” Gauri Malik, a resident of Sankhali said.

When Herald tried to contact the Sankhali MLA Pramod Sawant, he was not
available for his comments.

[Goanet] MHADEI WATER DISPUTE

[Aires Rodrigues]

The Mhadei Water Disputes Tribunal has very rightly advised the Chief
Ministers of Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra to try and reach an amicable
settlement to the ongoing water dispute. The three neighboring states
should in public interest see reason to seek the intervention of Prime
Minister Narendra Modi for a harmonious and peaceful settlement.



The cash strapped Goa has already spent crores by way of legal fees paid to
Atmaram Nadkarni and his bandwagon of advocates. This water dispute needs
to be brought to an agreeable close because it’s dragging on is something
Goa desperately cannot afford.



Let more crores not be poured down the drain on this water dispute between
neighbours. It is a criminal and unjustifiable waste of public funds which
only works to the benefit of the Advocates who are making hay while milking
and drying the State coffers. And Goa’s coffers are already in dire
straits.
