[Goanet] Imran khan and David Frawly

[Frederick Dsouza]

While Imran Khan had access to very good education he could not absorb much
as he is thick headed! He was brought into power by the Pakistani Army and
Judiciary with the backing of CIA, and the Jewish Lobby. In his case the
CIA and Jews have common interests. Imran is very close to the Jews he
stays with his ex-mother-in-law in the UK and was lobbying for the brother
(Zac Goldsmith) of his ex-wife for the post Mayor of London. It is no
secret that the Christians believe that Christ (though a Jew) was killed by
the Jews. The Jews often mention that Christ did not exist.  Imran is just
pushing the views of his beloved Jewish (he is very close to them) mentors.
Nothing to be surprised about: Pakistani PM Imran Khan claims Jesus "had no
mention in history" https://www.rt.com/news/444699-imran-khan-jesus-remarks/



P.S. The disciples of the fake  वामदेव शास्त्री have been now dispatched to
India:

  Self-bestowed Sanskrit title: वामदेव शास्त्री, IAST: Vāmadeva Śāstrī)

Born September 21, 1950 (age 68)
Wisconsin, United States
Nationality American
Occupation Vedacharya, Ayurvedic teacher, Vedic astrologer, writer
Spouse(s) Yogini Shambhavi Chopra

My views are independent as I only belong to Bharat and have no links with
the Congress Party or BJP. Yet it is sad what is happening in Bharat . By
now the Jews have an invisible hand in the affairs of Bharat. We can engage
the Jew but should not let them take over things. A seasoned con-man David
Frawley have been decorated with the Padma Bhushan by the Modi government.
His degrees are also fake. This man (Frawley) along with his plants of
Bharati origin are out to corrupt our youth and to create a new form of
decadent Hinduism for us. Now his Bharati origin disciples (some have been
given a huge amount of money) have been sent to Bharat to do the job and
Modi could decorate these idiots as well, and ignore genuine Bharati
nationalistic people!  Hindus respect all religions (however we shall
liquidate the terrorists) but follow only our own and this Jewish person in
India is spreading he is a Catholic!
Frawley is a fraud close to the level of the other Jew:

[Goanet] Dog meat?

[Frederick Noronha]

In the news is this report which talks about a Burmese restaurant in Goa
being raided because of a still-unclear-from-whom complaint that the
restaurant sold dog meat!

Can we see this as another form of the local racism we see so much of here

Frederick,

Why this sudden interest in hotels owned by politicians?

During 2006-2009 I was posting photographs of new construction projects
(most of them illegal) from all over Goa virtually every day. At that time you 
and your ilk had nothing but snark for me. You claimed that my alarm over
the construction frenzy was "exaggeration" and insinuated that it was 
actuated by something nefarious. Your main interest then was certainly
not the concretization of Goa but instead questioning of the motives of
those like me who were opposing it.

Now that the horse has bolted the stable, Frederick is concerned 
about some hotels being owned by politicians from other states.

Earth to Frederick: It's over, fella.

Well said Rajan. Pretending to be a very "positive" is no virtue on the part of 
the person. Seeing faults is NOT a "negative". More so if a journalist wants to 
walk the thin line. Obe must understand racism, and not mix it with 
behaviourial attitudes.
The High Priest of Progressiveness can rest himself in the cocoon he's 
inhabitating.

[Goanet-News] Going beyond xacuti and cafreal, an old cookbook serves the delights of Goan Catholic cuisine (Anisha Rachel Oommen & Aysha Tanya. Scroll.in)

[Goanet Reader]

Going beyond xacuti and cafreal, an old cookbook serves the
delights of Goan Catholic cuisine

The 'Goan Cookbook' by Joyce
Fernandes has been the kitchen
guide for Goans over the past
few decades.

Oct 11, 2018 · 11:30 am
Anisha Rachel Oommen & Aysha Tanya

In 1510, a Portuguese expedition led by Afonso de Albuquerque
conquered Goa, forever changing the cultural and economic
landscape of what is now India's smallest state. From the
16th century until 1961, when Goa ceased to be a Portuguese
colony, the influences of the Estado da Índia Portuguesa
permeated every walk of life. To this day, it is seen in the
pillared porches (balcãos) and inner courtyards (saquãos) of
a house in Fontainhas -- the old Latin Quarter in Panjim --
to the xacuti one might eat at a homestay by the beach.

The confluence of lusophone traditions with local Hindu
customs has created a culture and community that have a
distinct identity that is obvious from even a cursory glance
at a Mario Miranda painting, or even the laziest Bollywood
trope of the fun-loving Goan Catholic.

  The Goan Catholics make up about 25% of the state's
  population. They are behind many of the popular
  Goan delicacies -- xacuti, chicken cafreal,
  vindaloo and chourico. Their cuisine is a marriage
  of local dishes with a burst of Portuguese
  inspiration. The poi or Goan bread is a perfect
  example of this. Lizzie Collingham, author of
  Curry, writes that the Portuguese began to make poi
  in rice-centric Goa, using toddy as a replacement
  for yeast, to satiate their bread (or pao as it is
  known in Portuguese) cravings.

Taste of the sea

One characteristic of the Goan Catholic cuisine is the use of
toddy vinegar or coconut vinegar. The sweet and sour flavour
of the vinegar is what gives so many of Goan dishes its
unique piquancy. The Hindus of the region though, prefer to
use kokum as a souring agent.

As Goa is by the sea, seafood is an important part of the
everyday meal in a Goan Catholic home. "A daily lunch
consisted of rice, curry, vegetable, meat, fried fish, prawns
or any other seafood as per availability," said Jaqueline
D'Souza, an avid cook and a resident of Porvorim. Coconut too
plays a leading role in the cuisine -- the famous fish curry
of Goa is an example of a dish that gets its velvety lushness
from ground coconut.

A cookbook that provides an insight into the cuisine, without
being intimidating for a beginner is Joyce Fernandes' Goan
Cookbook. The first edition of the cookbook came out in 1984
and has been a constant on the bookshelves of Goan housewives
since.

PHOTO: Sopa De Camarão or prawn soup.

It is the first of four books written by Fernandes. D'Souza
says it was the first cookbook she owned and is very
sentimental about it. Jean Cardoso, a Goan who now lives in
Bengaluru, feels similarly attached to her well-worn copy and
says that it was the book she bought as a newlywed learning
how to cook. On *Traditional Goan Foodies*, a Facebook group
with 1.48 lakh members, pictures of dishes cooked from
Joyce's books pop up frequently. Back in the pre-social media
days though, when the books were published, it is said that
Joyce had a rather clever way of promoting her books --
through hair salons in Panjim.

The book is 71 pages long, with 105 recipes. It is not
divided into sections, and therefore, Bimbli Balchao sits
next to Lover's Pudding, segueing without pomp, splendour or
grand announcements -- into the dessert section. What it
lacks in frills, it makes up for in clarity and an easy,
relaxed instructional voice. There is something to be said
for finding a recipe to make sausages that does not come with
a litany of warnings that are meant to reassure, but in
reality make the process more harrowing.

As with many cookbooks from the decade, not a lot of emphasis
is placed on timing. To be fair, however, on several
occasions, the instructions state the signs to look for --
cook until the onions are brown, for example.

PHOTO: The Marie Biscuit Cake.

Although it may seem like Goan Cookbook might be a book that
values practicality above all else, Fernandes writes in the
introduction to the 1990 edition, "the original names of the
recipes have been preserved for sentimentality" -- and
sentimental, romantic and quirky they are. Lover's Pudding,
Tipsy Cake, Angels' Wings, Cobwebs and our favourite for what
appears to be a meringue, Sigh. We would not expect anything
less from a book that features a recipe for chocolate salami.

  The first dish we make from the book is Sopa De
  Camarão or prawn soup. In today's style of recipe
  writing, this is a recipe that would have taken at
  least one page of directions. But in Joyce's clear,
  to-the-point writing, in less than 200 words, the
  instructions for a foolproof prawn soup are conveyed.

The second recipe that we try is The Marie Biscuit Cake.

[Goanet] Brown-on-brown racism

[Frederick Noronha]

I'm sure many Catholics in Goa spoke (or still speak) as contemptuously of
Hindus, or "upper" castes of "lower" castes, men about women, etc. At the
end of the day, this is a lot of bias, bile, and hate-speech against the
"Other". We can always compare what we see as the negatives in someone else
with the perceived positives we think that we have a monopoly over.
More importantly,  I think we're missing out crucial questions about luxury
and other 'investments' in today's Goa.  I'm therefore eager not to get
derailed off the topic due to invectives of a personal kind. Do we know how
many hotels along the Goa coast are owned by politicians from other states?
How many Goa politicians own ventures-we're-willing-to-lose-money-on in
other states? FN

[Goanet] Anthony Tony) or Neville de Mello?

[nestor carvalho]

I'd be inclined to believe Eric Pinto's Anthony at this link, concerning the 
famous Goan cricket personality of Mumbai.

Pitch perfect: Goan cricketer Tony de Mello was the soul andspirit behind the 
construction of Brabourne Stadium

https://www.mid-day.com/articles/stories-of-mumbai-s-goans/15360197

Then we have Neville at these ones:
The Brabourne Stadium was built on a piece of land reclaimedfrom the sea which 
Lord Brabourne, Governor of Bombay, presented to the CricketClub of India after 
being tempted with an offer of immortality in the bargain.It was officially 
opened on December 7 1937 following with a match between theCCI and Lord 
Tennyson's team. The idea that the ground would be the Lord's ofIndia (the 
Cricket Club of India was regarded as the county's MCC) was thebrainchild of a 
Goan, Neville de Mello. It was as exclusive as its Englishcounterpart and every 
bit as luxurious - Frank Worrell once remarked that itwas the only place in the 
world where he could watch cricket in his dressing-gownand remove it when it 
was his turn to bat. It was also a multi-sport complexwhich hosted 
international tennis.

http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/ground/58317.html

 

 

 Brabourne Stadium is a cricket ground in the city of Mumbai. Thestadium is 
located near Churchgate Railway Station near south of Mumbai. Thestadium is 
owned by the Cricket Club of India. Brabourne Stadium was built on apiece of 
land, reclaimed from the sea. The stadium was officially opened onDecember 7, 
1937 following a match between The CCI and Lord Tennyson's team.Neville de 
Mello gave the idea that the ground would be the property of Lordsof India. The 
stadium was quite luxurious in the British period. It was also amulti sports 
complex, which hosted International Tennis.

One of the oldest stadiums of India, it was established in1937, this stadium 
seems to have lost its splendour now except for anoccasional first class match 
that is played here. This ground is not as big ascompared to other grounds in 
Mumbai with a capacity of 2. The stadium wasbuilt on a piece of land which 
Lord Brabourne, the then Governor of Bombay,presented to the Cricket Club of 
India after being tempted with an offer ofimmortality in the bargain. It was 
officially opened on December 7 1937 andhosted its first test from December 
9-13, 1948 between India and the WestIndies. Designed by Neville de Mello, he 
wanted this ground to be the Lords ofIndia.

[Gabe Menezes]

A mini series on a Restaurant run by an Aussie, was showing on channel W9
here. Good food and nice ambience?

The Aussie is now opening up a restaurant in Mumbai in an old cotton gin
warehouse. Called the Wine Rack with exceptional dining!

Has anyone been to Antares?

[Goanet] Brown-on-brown something (was Angriya Cruise - Impressions)

[Rajan Parrikar]

In the new bizarro world progressives inhabit, you are not supposed to
observe certain behaviors, especially if the said behaviors originate from
non-white individuals or cultures. The mere act of OBSERVING will get you
labeled a racist, and if you should venture to advertise your crime-think
in print or on social media, that will invite much worse.

Indians, being imitators of everything American, have their own home grown
custodians of the 'proper' mode of conduct, trawling the social media scape
24/7/365 for reasons to be offended.

Observing that Indians have defecated on Goa is a big no-no. Observing that
Indians threaten to obliterate us Goans and our identity through
demographic warfare? That’s racist! Observing that Indians have usurped
Goan land and built slums is a cardinal sin. You are a heartless capitalist
for not caring about the poor! And besides, don't Indians have the RIGHT to
foul everything they touch? Observing that India has brought to the Goan
shores its infinite stores of poverty and misery could get you quarantined
- it’s a violation of the INDIAN CONSTITUTION (something no Indian,
living or dead, has ever read).

And so, when I committed the offense of observing certain Indian behaviors
on the Angriya cruise, it was deemed “brown-on-brown racism” by the Chief
Progressive of Goanet and the pretend-patracar of yesteryear Shri Fredrick
Noronha. Noronha sits at the apex of the virtue signaling pyramid, he's
what I call a “digital humanitarian.”

What exactly is virtue signaling, you may ask. The best and most succinct
definition comes from John Derbyshire (
https://vdare.com/posts/virtue-signaling-a-useful-concept-reaches-the-main-stream-thanks-to-ann-coulter
):

"Virtue signaling is communication of the fact that you are a Good Person,
not a Bad Person. The force of the expression is in the second part.  You
are merely signaling, not actually following through with actions to prove
your virtue.  Virtue signaling is gestural."

For instance, for years I have observed that there is a beggars racket
operating in Panjim. Infirm, often elderly, individuals, or women with
kids, are deposited every morning in the city to emotionally blackmail
pedestrians into giving money, which is then collected by the operator.
Enter the virtue signaler: Noticing all this makes ME a Bad Person. Calling
me out makes Mr. Noronha a Good Person.

Has Mr. Noronha, the apostle of compassion, ever offered any of these
migrant unfortunates refuge in his own home? Or expended even one calorie
to shut this abomination down? No points for guessing the correct answer.

The one thing that Mr. Noronha and the rest of the virtue signalers revel
in is the spread of misery and the hate of those who earn an honest income.
