PRESS RELEASE - Goa Sudharop launches new project with fashion designer Verma 
D'Mello

Goa Sudharop Covid 19 project

Goa Sudharop's Thread-Up team based in Goa is a partnership between Goa 
Sudharop and Goan fashion designer Verma D'Mello which trains village women in 
the clothing industry. They are going to make and donate various types of 
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) designed for different categories of 
frontline workers in Goa to help them stay safe and protect their health during 
this Covid-19 pandemic. 

We also appreciate all the risk being taken by garbage collectors and so safe 
PPE wear is being designed specially for them too.

The protective masks and gowns will be made from unspunbonded polypropylene 
fabrics as it restricts transmission. These items will be made by the village 
women trained by Ms. Verma D'Mello on sewing machines donated by Goa Sudharop.

Goa Sudharop had previously provided food to Goan villagers impacted by the 
pandemic

B.I.B.L.E. - Behold I Bring Life Eternal



Galatians 5:16-18
=


16 I say, then: live by the Spirit and you will certainly not gratify the
desire of the flesh.

17 For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the
flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you may not do what you
want.

18 But if you are guided by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

managed welfare state, a state the gives tremendous impetus on
Healthcare, Education and good Governance. To my mind the things that
has worked for Kerala is Literacy, Communal harmony and the fact that
people hold their public and government office bearers accountable.
Reward them for their achievements and punish them if they err. Public

[Goanet] GOD SAVE OUR STUDENTS WITH KONKAN RAILWAY HAVING NOW EMERGED AS CORONA RAILWAY

2020-05-18 Thread Aires Rodrigues
With the COVID-19 cases in Goa escalating by the day, the government is
displaying its sheer and reckless arrogance by having decided to go ahead
with the SSC exams while putting the lives of our young children at risk.

The authorities should have carefully thought of a way to deal with this
issue. Even if a scholastic year was lost it would be better instead of
putting in peril the well- being of our young beacons of hope.

These are turbulent times demanding high levels of caution and
watchfulness. Having failed on so many occasions in handling various issues
during this lock-down, the authorities would be solely responsible for the
consequences of their short-sightedness in holding these exams during this
raging pandemic. The government needs to chart its way forward guardedly in
battling this deadly virus as on account of any skewed approach we may end
up setting more COVID-19 hospitals in the State.

Don’t our young students deserve Justice, protection and compassion in a
civilized society? This will weigh on our consciences forever. Protecting
and safeguarding its people is the fundamental and main duty of any
Government. This pandemic has wreaked havoc throughout the world. For five
months it has humbled the best and the worst, the powerful the arrogant and
the lowly. The worst medical scientific and economic crisis in a hundred
years. We must treat COVID 19 with the seriousness that it demands.

We may not see the virus due to its invisible minute size but that does not
mean we should turn a blind eye to its destruction by succumbing our
children and people to reckless knee jerk decisions. Exams can wait. Life
and death cannot!

[Goanet] Indian Writers In Goa

2020-05-18 Thread Roland Francis
While Goa is being robbed of its culture, peace and environment by the extreme 
poverty entering from the rest of India and by greedy individuals both from 
within and outside, it is also enriched by the skills and talents coming there 
from other parts of the country and the world.

Many years ago when I met Valmiki Faleiro of Margão, he told me that what is 
happening is nothing but a reprise of what used to happen before the Portuguese 
consolidated their power and rule in the territory. Which proves the two old 
adages of history repeating itself and how the only guarantee in life is 
change. How the butter churns and finally takes shape, is anybody’s guess.

Linken,
Probably you were right, your grand-uncle Manuel Alphonso did provide
music for 2 films but not Mogacho Aunddo or Bhuierantlo Munis
it was Sukhachem Sopon and Cortubancho Sounsar.
https://konkanicinema.com/movie/kortubancho-sonvsar/

The details of Mogacho Aunddo was fresh in my mind as I recently (Konkani
Cinema Day celebrated on 24th April) posted on FB details about this film.
Also I pvtly asked Idsidore Dantas, who has done research on Konkani cinema
more details about this film as I was aware he was working on this film.
He did provide me some details, but the completion details is
with family of Al Jerry Braganza.

On Manuel Alphonso
Those days a lot of info was posted on Goanet on Konkani Music.
I cam across this post on Manuel Alphonso
https://www.mail-archive.com/goanet@lists.goanet.org/msg79850.html
Since I am into collection of Konkani songs, I came to know that Manuel
produced 4 audio albums, of which I have only 2, that is
1. Goa  and 2. Saudades de Goa.
I also came to know that Alfred Rose was a close friend of Manuel and
and on his 50th Wedding Anniversary Alfred Rose Composed a song
'Ponos Voros Sarlim'. I am not sure if Alfred Rose sang it but its in
Album 'Saudades de Goa'.
Both these CD's have the best of Traditional Goan Mandos.
I understand Manuel Alphonso had also published a book with lyrics
of all the songs, not sure anyone has the copy.

Here are some of the songs from Sukhachem Sopon
3 of the songs lyrics were by Alfred Rose

[Goanet] "Nom de Plume" copacetic on Goanet?

2020-05-18 Thread E DeSousa
I guess the question is how many choose to post under pseudonyms... 

IMHO some of these are quite elegant, but they seem to have the advantage over 
those who use their given names.
Google research: "But one of the most common reasons authors write under 
aliases is because their earlier works bombed".

I find it strange that you think there are many posters on Goanet posting under

The moderators have guaranteed us that this does not happen.

Joao,The pictures I do not miss on social media are those of people eating at 
restaurants. Until yesterday, it seemed that everyone had to take and post a 
picture of food that they were served at a restaurant - before they started 
eating. They also had to report that they were at the airport - before they got 
on a flight. The "crown" virus has changed all that. 

Your original work, above, reminded me of a verse we were forced to study in 
school yesterdecade. It goes like this:


And in the visitation of the winds,Who take the ruffian billows by the 
top,Curling their monstrous heads and hanging themWith deafening clamour in the 
slippery clouds,That, with the hurly, death itself awakes?Canst thou, O partial 
sleep, give thy reposeTo the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude,And in the calmest 
and most stillest night,With all appliances and means to boot,Deny it to a 
king? Then happy low, lie down!Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

[Goanet] GOVERNMENT MUST ACT AGAINST ADULTERATED FOODSTUFF

2020-05-18 Thread Aires Rodrigues
Over the last many years Goa has been witnessing a huge rise in cancer
cases which is partly attributed to the impure food we consume. Now more so
in this COVID -19 pandemic, it is all the more important that we ensure
that nothing we eat is adulterated, unhygienic or substandard.



Over the last few weeks we are seeing anything and everything being
unauthorisedly sold by all and sundry anywhere and everywhere while the
authorities are conveniently turning a nelson’s eye to all this illegal
trade which should be a health concern to all. Even substandard and
possibly formalin laced fish is being sold all over in private vehicles and
along the roads.



It is incumbent on the authorities to ensure that all food items are sold
only at the markets and in the authorized shops. The Food & Drug
Administration must wake up from its slumber and get its act together by
cracking on this sale of adulterated food items to prevent a further rise
in cancer and other ailments. It is imperative that the public in the
interest of their own health should not patronize such road-side sales.



It is futile to have a meaningful Lockdown to control the virus, without a
stringent clampdown on consumer products that can cause more harm in more
ways than the pandemic. This must be a time more than any other for the
authorities to act firmly against unscrupulous traders that want to cash in
on peoples’ vulnerability, frailty and fears and causing more harm than
good even fatal in some instances. Deterrent action must also be taken
against those misusing their office in the building society complexes for
unduly advertising and promoting such unlawful and illegal sales for
apparent selfish pecuniary benefits while prejudicing the health and well
being of the residents.



The famous proverb ‘Prevention is better than cure’ is important and
applicable in our daily sphere of life. It teaches us to take preventive
measures always in our life to get away from all sorts of dangers.
Preventive measures help us to save our health, effort, time and money.
Time the authorities exercised and strengthened without fear or favour the
measures in place to safeguard all the people and the state.

[Goanet] Video from Pratapananda

2020-05-18 Thread Pratap Naik
"500 Hundred miles" a modern popular English song was composed by Justin
Timberlake, Carey Mulligan, and Stark Sands. The tune of this song has been
adopted by Nilanjan Mistry for his lyrics and it is sung by Maitreyee Moon.
The lyrics depict the plight and sentiments of the workers who desperately
want to go back to their home in their village or town. This video depicts
the real India during Lockdown days. When we are safe in our homes,
millions are on roads on their way to go home. How many of them will safely
reach home, is anybody's guess. May God protect them.

[Goanet] Mamãe Eu Quero (I Want My Mama

2020-05-18 Thread Roland Francis
It is today one of the most famous Brazilian songs of all time, synonymous with 
its singer Carmen Miranda. 

Written by Vicente Paiva and Jararaca in 1937, it gained international 
visibility in 1940 when performed as a marching song by Carmen Miranda on 
Broadway in the play ‘Down Argentine Way’. It was taken into every American 
home when connected to the Tom and Jerry and I Love Lucy cartoon television 
shows. 

The song was performed in the 2016 Olympics Closing Ceremony at the Macaraña 
Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

The song struck a chord in most Goan homes from Portuguese times because of the 
language connection and it continues to be included in every singalong medley 
with En Costa Tua Cabeciña, ABC de Coração and the Konkani Mando evergreens.

Here is a modern dance video interpretation by T-Rio, a Brazilian musical group 
of triplet sisters Thaina, Thayana and Thaisa of the song in 2004 from their 
album Choopeta.
