[Goanet] Goanetters meet, Cricket and TriMooli ki Sabji

2012-01-04 Thread J. Colaco jc
1: Thanks FN for those pics of the Goanetters meet. I concur with
Mervyn. It is always good to put a face to a name. Ema and I had
planned to come to Goa for a family event. Unfortunately for us, the
dates clashed with our assigned leave. This is the second wedding in
the family we missed because of a clash of dates. The last one was a
couple of years ago in midApril. Even so  we were happy to see the
pictures of the many names who post.

2: The cricket scene is heating up. It is good to see Pakistan making
a come back. They are a talented lot who have unfortunately got
involved in this sutta-bazi. Sri Lanka should do better once they
correct their 'issues' and make the right team choices. Bangladesh are
a young team and they need some experience. India needs to allow the
older players to retire gracefully. There appears to be significant
talent in the regions and too much load is being placed on the older
players. India also needs to drop the Kohlis and Harbhajans of
cricket. There is no room for 'over-heated folks' in professional
settings.

3: Like my good friend Floriano Lobo, I admire Dr. Wilfred de Souza as
a friend, counsellor, teacher (at GMC) and surgeon. I have yet to come
across a better surgeon, anywhere, than Dr. Willie. I know that he has
made significant personal sacrifices in the hope of making Goa a
better place. He (correctly) believed that Bandodkar and the MGP were
the root cause for the 'ghettoization' of the previous GMC hospital
and the degradation of the standard the health-care delivery provided
at GMC. That, sadly, appears to be the case even till this day.  Even
so and as I have stated repeatedly to Dr. Willie, he (Dr. Willie)
would have done more for health care in Goa (Bandodkar, the MGP and
the less-competent deputationists, notwithstanding) by staying OUT of
partisan politics, and IN medicine.

4: I have NO good vibes about this T-mooli outfit. Even so, like in
cricket, it is time for the senior players of politics, to retire and
do the next best thing.

Malign you?    N.  Your post was very funny (chuckle here).
 
Perhaps I was not clear.
I was actually complimenting your attempt to broker peace [albeit with a 
metaphorical bat] between the one vociferous complainant now threatening to 
vamp (Yo vixen!), and the as yet silent recipient of invective.

I hope Uncle Mario will not get a heart attack when he reads this one. I need 
him alive for another little while so that he gets to see $1,650 
gold :-)

Mario responds:

Young Mervyn, One of the fundamental building blocks in finance is known as the 
Time value of money.  If you were familiar with this concept you would know 
that it is not only what level the price of an investment or commodity will 
reach but also when.  Both are critical in evaluating whether an investment was 
worth making relative to other investment opportunities.

When you predicted %1,650 for the price of gold you said it could be anytime 
between March of 2008 when it reached $1,000 per oz. and you made your 
prediction, and when hell freezes over.

The time it takes to actually reach $1,650 will determine whether it was a good 
investment relative to other investment alternatives that were available at the 
time.  Between March of 2008 when you made your prediction and October of 2009 
gold was a lousy investment, and we didn't hear a peep from you about gold.  
Then your socialist icon, Barack Hussein Obama's policies started to kick in.  
Whether Obama will be able to continue to debase the currency beyond 2010 when 
his wings are likely to be drastically clipped in the mid-term elections is an 
open question.

In the meantime, it may behoove you to familiarise yourself with these 
investment basics.  I hope this link helps:

You know I am extremely fond of you but I want to make two things absolutely

1) As a fellow Goanetter, I'm not interested in what upsets Cecil Pinto as just 
about anything can upset the man.

2) I will never attend anything either organised or headed by him.

[Goanet] Goanetters Meet

2009-12-28 Thread Tony de Sa

Hi every one,
This is being sent out after the Goanetters meet which was held today at
4.00 p.m.

First of all, congrats to Moderator Frederick (FN) Noronha for organizing
this stand alone meet as opposed to the meet held last year which was piggy
backed on the Goa Sudharop meet and which for this reason earned the ire of
Goanetter Cecil Pinto.

The first person I saw when I entered the seating area was Goanetter Vivian
A. (Socorrokar) A Lobo in a cap with Goa Netter written on it. For a
moment I thought that Rico - sorry FN had organized caps for us all, but it
was Vivian's own creation.

Prominent among those present were  former speaker Tomazinho Cardozo,
Director of Education Dr, Celsa Pinto, Wendell Rodrigues and band master of
yester years, amcho Moidecho ganv bhav, Micky Correia!

FN has promised to post the full list of attendees.

Though FN has done a wonderful job of organizing this meet, I have a few
personal suggestions you are free to argue them or reject them:

In future let us form a committee to organize the meeting. The meeting could
take place in a small hall and we could have a theme for the meeting with a
guest speaker. This could be followed by a brief discussion and some light
entertainment. Today's performance by Rui Lobo was excellent. There could be
refreshments. I do not think the netters would mind contributing towards
snacks and beverages. Those who want to partake of spirits to put themselves
in the mood could pay for their own poison. Souvenirs of the meet could also
be given. I would like to suggest Cecil Pinto as one of the organizers.

It was sad to see that some of the more active residen Netters prominent by
their absence: I could name a few: Augusto Pinto, Albert D'Souza, ..

Thanks Frederick once again.

Though FN has done a wonderful job of organizing this meet, I have a few
personal suggestions you are free to argue them or reject them:

In future let us form a committee to organize the meeting. The meeting could
take place in a small hall and we could have a theme for the meeting with a
guest speaker. This could be followed by a brief discussion and some light
entertainment. Today's performance by Rui Lobo was excellent. There could be
refreshments. I do not think the netters would mind contributing towards
snacks and beverages. Those who want to partake of spirits to put themselves
in the mood could pay for their own poison. Souvenirs of the meet could also
be given. I would like to suggest Cecil Pinto as one of the organizers.

It was sad to see that some of the more active residen Netters prominent by
their absence: I could name a few: Augusto Pinto, Albert D'Souza, ..

Thanks Frederick once again.

[Goanet] Goanetters Meet

2009-12-28 Thread Carvalho

Dear Tony,
You know I am extremely fond of you but I want to make two things absolutely 
clear.

1) As a fellow Goanetter, I'm not interested in what upsets Cecil Pinto as just 
about anything can upset the man.

2) I will never attend anything either organised or headed by him.

As an active Goanetter, I strongly request that we keep Goanet as uncorrupted 
as possible.

Best,
Selma

2. Are you threatening to really attend this soiree next year or are you just 
blowing smoke?

3. I have no idea what is bugging you two but this love-hate relationship has 
to stop.  You and Cecil need to air-kiss and make up.  Collaborate on a funny 
essay, why don't you?  Or write a book together.  Send some flowers through 
Cecil to Tony whom you are so fond of.

4. As the lone voice of reason, truth and peace on Goanet, you need to convert 
all this negative energy into some positive energy.  Don't you know the 
Himalayan icecaps are melting already?  Don't make me bring my baseball bat and 
sort this out:-))

5. Are there no peacemakers in Goa?  Vivian?  Tony?  Ana Maria?

Selma,
Ok, now we know where your uncorrupted self stands.
We also know your fondness to Tony and lack thereof to Cecil.

The purpose of this post is to find out if you can get one Mario Goveia to 
attend a Goanetters Meet.

If so, I will send a post detailing my feelings about you and Mario.

Re: [Goanet] Goanetters Meet

2009-12-28 Thread Cip Fernandes

Dear Tony,

You know that I am neither extremely fond of you nor fond of you. The good 
thing among us that neither you nor me will pass by, without saying hello. If 
I am not mistaken, you was the first one to stop and exchanged greetings before 
going to the Goanetters meeting on Monday. You are perfect gentleman! Bless 
you! Now, let me make few things crystal clear.

1) As a fellow Goanetter, I am very much interested to know what upsets 
professional journalist Mr Cecil Pinto as he will never ever gets upset easily. 
He will never get upset for any factual base priori conclusion or statement. 
However, Cecil Pinto may get upset for bad attitudes like those of typical 
Goemchem Mana, lies, ignorance and emotional based false statements.

2) In the past, I attended functioned organised by Cecil Pinto. Two years 
passed he organised a function at Aldona Institute and I attended that 
function with more than 17 friends, including Goa-netters. All my friends have 
enjoyed the function very much and often they remember the good time they 
had. All tickets were sold out in advance. Cecil, please organised more such 
function and I promise you that I will attend with more friends and Goa-netters.

3) I may be an inactive Goanetter in recent days but I noticed someone is 
trying to corrupt the Goa-net. I will never allow anyone to corrupt the Goanet, 
now as well as in future.

4) Active Goanetters become inactive. Some disappears into the thin air like 
so-called Elizabeth.

5) To orgaines functions in Goa, Cecil Pinto is much much better than my friend 
Fred Noronha. 

Who the bleep cares for Hindis and Mohindis

Will never ever allow anyone to corrupt Goanet or attack any decent genuine 
journalist.

Cip

2009-12-08 Thread Tony de Sa
Many  Netters seem to be keen on attending the Annual Goanetters Meet. There
is a suggestion to have it in Margao. I have no objection but the venue
suggested, Longuinhos is simply impracticable because of the parking
problems. If we are to travel from North Goa, then we perforce have to come
by some vehicle, so adequate parking should be a must.

Incidentally, what is wrong with Panjim? After all, it is the capital city.

And why not hold the meet at a suitable place down South say Margao for once.

 Dear all:

 Those of you who have been on Goanet for some time now, would easily
 recall that we hold a face-to-face Goanetters' meet each year in Goa.
 This is usually held around the end of the year -- when we have more
 people (Goanetters included) visiting Goa during the festive season.
 The idea is to meet face-to-face, to share a couple of hours together,
 and to add a face to an email address :-)

and to add a face to an email address :-)

This year too, we are working to have a meet on December 28, 2009
evening. The venue will be announced shortly.

Please let me know offlist if you'd be in Goa this month, and
specially around that date. Already, I've heard from veteran
international journalist Alfred Tavares of Stockholm/Loutolim who's
now in Goa, Menin Rodrigues of Karachi (will be in Colva, but earlier
in Dec) and Stanley Marchon, among others.

As more people get onto cyberspace here too, there are a growing
number of Goanetters in Goa. Like, for instance, former Sacred Heart
Parra principal Tony de Sa tonyde...@gmail.com  who's from Moira, and
who asked just today as to when the meet would be held.

If you have been on Goanet sharing your campaigns and causes, please
do come along for the meeting and tell others about the work you're
doing. If you are an author who has published a book on Goa, bring a
few along for sale, and let's put author-signed books into
circulation! If you're a musician, get along your instrument!

[Maybe the much-disconnected-in-Goa Karachi Goans could also plan a
meet of their own, while Menin is in town. He's a very active
community organiser, the author of articles on the Goans of Karachi
(in the prestigious newspaper Dawn, etc) and founder-member, Board of
Governors
of St. Patrick's  St. Joseph's Colleges, Karachi. Incidentally, Menin
men...@gmail.com wrote recently about St. Patrick's College (Est.
1952): After its denationalization in May 2005 -- after 33 years of
government occupation -- the college is now well on its way to
achieving academic excellence under the watchful eye and guidance of
La Salle Bro. Lawrence Manuel, who has spent more than 40 years in in
the Punjab (Multan) with La Salle institutions.]

Kindly note, this is an unsponsored, unfunded event -- which means
everyone pays for their own eats or drinks. There is no entry fee and
all Goanetters are indeed welcome. See you there!

 You are also wrong that caste is written out from the

 much hope that you will be able to attend! Minimally,
 such a discussion, akin somewhat to what emerged
 peripherally at the last Convention held in Portugal,
 will receive some airing and not, willy nilly be swept
 under the carpet. 

 You might be rather surprised to note that, because I
 have already articulated so much on the topic, I have
 specifically NOT requested a discussion on caste, but
 rather, something else that, is currently A MAJOR
 PROBLEM. Several persons anticipate supplying evidence
 for such a discussion that, hopefully you will
 definitely be able to attend.

 
 
 
Folks,
We have been getting several enquiries to add topics for discussion at the 
convention. If those of you who have registered for the convention send in what 
you are interested in, we could make the arrangements or to point you to 
the appropriate workshop/presentation/discussion.
 
 
For those Goa-netters who want to meet and put a face to the names on the 
emails you have been reading all this time, again send us an email and we can 
arrange a formal or informal meeting.
 
 
Lastly, the University has state of the art electronic facilities. We will be 
recording the debates, workshops, etc. and put them on the website after the 
convention.
