[Goanet] Deepen your Faith series during the Novenas to Saint Francis Xavier
“Deepen Your Faith” Series at the Basilica of Bom Jezu The Jesuit Fathers of Pedro Arrupe Institute, Raia will be conducting a “Deepen Your Faith” Series during the Novenas to Saint Francis Xavier at the Basilica of Bom Jezu, Old Goa. These 30 minutes sessions will be conducted in English every evening after the English mass. These sessions are aimed at allowing an ordinary lay catholic to deepen the understanding of his /her own journey with the Lord through the study of the many journeys in the Bible and in the Church. The topics will include Scripture (Old and New testaments), the Tradition of the Catholic Church, Eucharist, Reconciliation and the Spirituality of Saint Francis Xavier. 24th of November, 2011: Day One – Our Faith Journey “Always have your answer ready for people who ask you the reason for the faith that you have” (1 Peter 3:15b). What is our faith journey and how can we prevent it from becoming superstition? Am I personally convinced in what I believe in? Through an overview of the many journeys in the Bible and the Church we will learn to discover and deepen in our own faith journey. 25th of November, 2011: Day Two – The Journey of the Old Testament The Old Testament was the scriptures of Jesus and the first Christian community, and hence is also important for the Christian community as the New Testament. The Old Testament reminds the Jews after Exile that just as God had lead the Israelites long ago from slavery into the Promised Land, so also will He once more build them up into His people. 26th of November, 2011: Day Three – The Journey of the New Testament “ ‘And you, who do you say that I am?’ Then Simon Peter spoke up and said, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God’.” (Mt 16:15-16). The journey of the New Testament reflects the confession of our faith in Jesus Christ. We will discover how the early Christians recognized Jesus as the Messiah, the Christ, which the Jews were waiting for. 27th of November, 2011: Day Four – Tradition of the Catholic Church The faith of us Christians depends upon the Apostolic tradition which the Apostles first handed down to the Church and which has successively being handed down from one generation to another to this present day. Much of our Catholic faith is from this living tradition. 28th of November, 2011: Day Five – The Eucharist we celebrate Why do we go for Mass? Out of obligation or out of conviction. What is the Catholic understanding of the Eucharist? We will reflect on the Eucharist as a Meal, as a Sacrifice, as a Memorial and as the Real Presence. 29th of November, 2011: Day Six – The Eucharist in the Scriptures There are four accounts of the Eucharist in the scriptures. They reveal to us why Jesus chose the symbols of bread and wine, that is, a meal, to represent his life. What is the meaning of the bread and wine today as revealed to us by the New Testament? 30th of November, 2011: Day Seven – Called to Reconciliation We are all made in the image and likeness of God. At the same time, we are called to prefect ourselves in God's image and likeness. Sin is when we choose to move away from God. God calls us to reconciliation, to metanoia, to change, to turn back to him. 1st of December, 2011: Day Eight – The Spirituality of Saint Francis Xavier “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, but loses his own soul?.” (Mk 8:36) Francis Xavier had planned to devote himself to the intellectual life, but at a strategic moment he surrendered to God, who had long and patiently pursued him. That surrender changed the course of his life and the course of history as well. How can this faith journey of Francis Xavier reflect in our lives too? --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---
[Goanet] Taxing unoccupied NRI homes
Dear Vivian, It is not going to be just unoccupied NRI homes, it will be all unoccupied home. The original idea was to penalise the Mumbai and Delhi buyer but because it has now become the NOT tax, NRI homes will fall under the purview of this tax if it is implemented, unless they make some exemption for NRIs which legally speaking they cannot. So the government in order to remedy one problem is actually creating a multitude of problems for itself. Collection of this tax will become a nightmare as how does one decide non-occupancy. If the flat is let out for one month of the year, does this constitute occupancy? If it is let out for six months? Second home owner buyers from Delhi and Mumbai will conveniently find the loophole while NRIs will be hardest hit. Also this tax will really not solving the housing problem in Goa. The renters market and the buyers market are entirely different. I wonder why the government can't get one single thing right? Maybe they need some NRI to advice them :-) Best, Selma --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---

Dear Freddy, I must admit the reason I pointed the error is to show that we make mistakes writing in a hurry and without giving much thought to our writing. Since we were debating the issue of Catholic Goans not using good English, I just happened to come across yours. You should not excuse yourself for having limited English as I find you are good at writing. I don't read all your pieces thoroughly but I do glance over them. Keep up writing here and for OHeraldo.

[Goanet] Anna's dictum on drinking. . .
Yes, it is an unhappy turn for him. Even as an outsider resident in India I have taken a keen interest in the Anna movement. I'm also much in favor of effective social control of alcohol consumption. But I'm afraid that Annaji disappoints now.

[Goanet] Video: Pro-mining agitation in the city ended up in Police Lathi Charge
Video: Pro-mining agitation in the city ended up in Police Lathi Charge It was peaceful all the way to the Panjim Ferry, opp Collectorate building (From Merces Circle) but the agitators (near Thomas Cook), suddenly started blocking both side of the busy Dayanand Bandodkar road thus paralysing the entire traffic. At first, it appeared that CISF or CRF started (upon provocation?), few minutes later, agitators were lathi charged again until all run away for life. Soon the crowd started gathering at the same spot – some heard asking Police ‘who gave them Lathi-Charge order?’ Some leaders seen calling back all the dispersed agitators back on the road but not many came forward despite several requests. (once beaten twice shy?). Which was followed by court arrest. Meeting were still going on after 1pm but on the pavement (promenade) this time. All this was happening not very far from the Collector and Dy. Collector’s offices.

[Goanet] [JudeSundayReflections] 1st Sunday of Advent
22-Nov-2011 Dear Friend, Whether we like it or not, whether we are prepared or not, we spend a major part of our lives waiting for things to happen to us or to the people around us. Waiting can be boring when we are not interested in the people we are waiting for, but it can also be exciting if the person we are waiting for is a loved one. Waiting can be very important for us, especially when we wait for God! Waiting for God is prayer! Waiting for God enhances life! Have an exciting weekend anticipating for His coming! -Fr. Jude Sunday Reflections: First Sunday of Advent-Being ready and prepared for His coming! 27-Nov-2011 Isaiah 63: 16-17, 64: 1, 3-81 Corinthians 1: 3-9Mark 13: 33-37 The first reading, is a poem written by a returned exile, entreating God to come and save his people. He recalls God's goodness and mercy towards His people, he pleads with him to save them from their present sinfulness and misery. The prophet humbly acknowledges the sinful ways of his people. We are never worthy of meeting God and God seems to have turned his face from his people but he is a merciful God and will come again to save his people. All we have to do is wait eagerly for his coming. Waiting for the Lord Once I went to see my parents after a long absence. My mother lovingly scolded me saying, Do you know how long we have been waiting for you? I said, I understand, mother, but do you know how long I was waiting to be born? All of us wait to be born, to be nourished and to be loved. Travelers wait for buses and planes; students wait for the exam results. Waiting is part of life. Life is not like instant coffee, there is always more to life than we can fully grasp at any one time. If it is so with the life of a human being, what of the life of God, whose glory shines not in one world but in ten hundred thousands of infinite globes? -If alert, we can find the Lord popping up in the ordinary activities and possibilities of life. If I am watchful, he may be tapping me on my shoulder when I meet my neighbour. If only we have those eyes that see, those ears that hear (Is 64:4), we can meet him in his supreme visit which he makes in a thousand ways. If we look wide-eyed at all creation, which reflects God, when the flowers of the earth are springing, the birds of the sky singing and a world of blended beauties smiling, we can sense through the sacred feelings they arouse in us the rustling of his garments and the coming of his feet. Even when the wintry winds are howling and the heavens darkly scowling, we can feel the awesome majesty of his giant steps. Yes, to meet the Lord, we must be prepared for life, not just for death. Vima Dasan in 'His Word Lives' In Mark's gospel Jesus warns the people three times to be watchful and awake. Be watchful! Stay awake! This call to stay awake is a very appropriate call for us now at the beginning of the new liturgical year. The gospel today has a short parable about the householder who has servants to whom he assigns particular tasks before he sets of on a journey. He singles out the doorkeeper with a special warning. Be on your guard then, because you do not know when the master of the house is coming. If we were to focus our gaze on the door keeper alone we would realize that perhaps the greatest danger facing him is not so much that he may fall asleep on the job as that he may grow so accustomed to it, that it will become just a job and nothing more. We know that gate keeping can become boring and routine can set in and take over in the best of circumstances. We can get used to anything, we can get used to the Sacred as well, we can get used to God, and then smugness, skepticism creeps into our lives. We can become Christians by habit and routine and we can keep up the external ritual and routine but we don't encounter God anymore but only our own emptiness. Each of us is the doorkeeper, whom God has put in charge of our own lives as well the lives of our brothers and sisters, our community, our church, our society. Advent calls us to stand ready and prepared for his coming. We stay alert by living the values of the Redeemer in our own time and place. We can only welcome Jesus into our life if we are alert and attentive to Him. Are we ready? Advent is God's rallying cry to his people before Christmas. Isaiah highlights how limited we are without the power of God and he compares us to clay in the hands of a potter. He pleads with God to rescue us from our inadvertence to him. The gospel cry of Jesus to be on our guard and to stay awake alerts us to the reality that self-interest always hinders our response to God. On the other hand, Paul is loud in his praise and thanks the converts at Corinth who have responded so fully to God's gifts to them. Together there is a pressing invitation to be attentive during these weeks to the wonder of God among us. Let us make space and time for him
[Goanet] Political Mileage From Public Works
Political Mileage From Public Works With the elections nearing, hot-mixing of roads in south Goa has started at a frantic pace, looking at which, it almost makes me believe that it would be a blessing to have elections every year ! Roads in south Goa are getting a shinny black look and for a change roads are being tarred soon after the rains instead of just before, thanks to the elections, our people will get good roads for a longer period of time this year. The PWD stands for Public Works Department and is funded by public money for public purpose and is surely not a charity institution funded by any Minister or bureaucrat. The Ministers may be allotted ministries by the Chief Minister for reason best know to him but that does not give them the right to act and think that they own the department by their birth right, to do as they please, what they please and when they please. As ministers they should realize that they are answerable not just to the people who elected them but to every Goan, as Goans everyone has the right to a better life and better facilities and not just a select few constituents. Goan politics is in shambles at the moment and it will get only worse if we keep on electing these ignoramuses over and over again. It's been proved beyond doubt that none of these elected MLAs are capable of working for the cause of Goa and Goans but they have already achieved their goal of joining politics, they done what they set out to do and more. They have made enough money to last them a few generations at the cost of Goa and Goans, unfortunately they are not done with it yet and still continue to fool gullible Goans. Conniving is an act that our Goan politicians have mastered to perfection over the years. They will go to any length to draw political mileage, especially in times of disasters, man made or otherwise. They are like the soaring eagle in search of a morsel and when it locates one it makes a dive and goes for the kill from any height, so to our politicians, a whiff of something and they go for the kill, I mean for political mileage. The stand off between the Banaulim MLA, Mick Pacheco and the PWD Minister, Churchill Alemao is a typical example; the charade at the hot-mixing site highlights the paucity of their inane mentality, each trying to take political mileage of the public works that are in progress. In Benaulim the PWD Minister has been hot-mixing roads in the presence of his daughter Valanka, who is a potential candidate for Benaulim, as though the hot mixing is being carried out with his or her personal funds, on the other hand Micky Pacheco has been breaking coconut after coconut for public works that are in progress in his (supposedly) area as though he has been paying for it from his own pockets. Oh, how I wish they would break their own heads instead of coconuts ! Are we Goans fools enough, to fall for such cheap crap and elect such imbeciles ? Or are we ?

[Goanet] Pak Telecom Authority writes to The CSF on Jesus Christ in the banned list. Two Imp. Announcements

If the images below do not display correctly, please click here http://ch.spinnakerpro.com/run/v3.aspx?x=7803711-48-245 FW: From the Desk of... Joseph Dias, General Secretary, The CSF Catholic-Christian Secular Forum www.thecsf.org http://www.thecsf.org/ ^Ecumenical ^Evangelical ^Interdenominational Pakistan Telecom Authority (PTA) Responds to Christian forum complaint PTA takes Jesus Christ off the SMS list of obscene words PTA Director Ahmed Pirzada writes to Joseph Dias about it We have yet another reason to Praise the Lord. We added our little bit, by merely emailing, joined by thousands. It shows how little it takes for the LORD to bless one with success - Little is much, if it is placed in HIS hands. To God be the glory - The Catholic-Christian Secular Forum (CSF), the Mumbai based activist Christian NGO had in a letter to the Pakistan President, Asif Ali Zardari; Communications Minister, Dr. Arbab Alamgir Khan and the PTA Chairman taken strong exception to Pakistan Telecom Authority (PTA) including Jesus Christ in the list of obscene words in text (SMS) messages. The CSF general secretary, Joseph Dias said it raised serious concerns about basic freedoms, like that of expression and religion in Pakistan. If such an action was taken by a non Islamic or secular nation, singularly naming a god of any other faith, there would have been a furore in the communication emailed to the Pak authorities. In a reply to Joseph Dias, a copy of which was forwarded to the Pakistan authorities concerned, Ahmed Shamim Pirzada, PTA Director said the list forwarded to Cellular Mobile Telephony Operators (CMTOs) is tentative and under review. Your point is considered and rectified in the revised list which has assured The CSF that words Jesus Christ were off the obnoxious list. Earlier in his letter to Pakistan's authorities, Joseph Dias referred to a letter by PTA's Director General (Services) Muhammad Talib Doger said the order was legal under a 1996 law preventing people from sending information through the telecommunications system that is “false, fabricated, indecent or obscene”. It also stated that free speech can be restricted “in the interest of the glory of Islam.” How does the words Jesus Christ fit the above description? asked The CSF general secretary. One wonders why gods of other religions have not been mentioned in the list and Christians, who are already facing persecution in Pakistan have been singled out for such treatment? This has hurt our religious sentiments and hence urged that Jesus Christ be removed from the list. The CSF expresses solidarity with the Pakistani Christians and had taken up the issue, since it is difficult for them to raise a voice on the same said Joseph Dias. He thanked the Pakistani authorities for their prompt gesture and hoped that such acts would not be repeated in the future. Pl Note: 1.) Bangalore Meet: The CSF general secretary is going to be in Bangalore for a day on 24th November, 2011 to meet activists.

[Goanet] ICICI marketing insurance as 3 yr deposit
ICICI misleading Scheme The agents promoting the scheme are misleading the customers. The scheme is palmed of as deposit of a fixed sum yearly It is assured that it is better than Bank deposits with better interests rates and can be withdrawn after three years When the document is sent, it is shown as an insurance, which fact is hidden while marketing the product It was operating from then premises of BOI Chinchinim and was casually recommended as a good bargain At the end of the 3 year period, they demand more agreed premium payment, under the threat that 5% will be deducted on payment or else you have to wait for another two years At the moment of surrendering it was told that final amount payable depends upon the sensex It is therefore not guaranteed as it is linked to market fluctuations Hence another uncertain wait to be able to recover your investment, forget about the promised interest Like me many a customer , who parked the funds as deposit for 3 years are in for a shock The promoters/agents representatives have long left the service after fooling the customers on false representations It is better that you should be beware of the marketing of the said scheme as deposit, which in fact is the insurance It could be also converted into annuity ,if one so desires , but that was not the purpose under which one joined. Some have even lost initial deposits for not receiving the reminder for the payment of the second annual installment Nelson Lopes Chinchinim --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---

[Goanet] VASCO HEAVEN FOR DRUG TRAFFICKERS
VASCO HEAVEN FOR DRUG TRAFFICKERS Be carefull!! it may so happen that one fine morning you get to know that your child has fallen prey to drugs. Today the state of affairs in the port town has been a total dismay, due to the blessing from the Politicians and government officials. One can notice that school and college going girls and boys of the port town have fallen prey to this vice. There are many drug dens in Vasco, but the latest hot place which has seen a very high traffic of drug trafficking is at the dead end road in Mangor hill, Vasco near Aristocrat apartment. Come evening and there a bikes zooming down to this place as it looks like a honey comb. Girls and boys from good families flock down to have their share in the party. The residents of that area are terrified and don’t even come out in the evening due to fear. For sure the Vasco police are well aware of what’s happening, but are giving a deaf ear to this. Today, the root causes of most of the crimes in the port town are related to drugs. I would request the local MLA, politicians and government officials to take this issue very seriously and put a zero tolerance stance on drugs trafficking or elves it will be too late till Vasco turn to be a drug trafficking hub of Goa.

[Goanet] Jai Nanga .... No, Not a Digambara story ....but one of discrimination
Do not know all the details of this story (yet) but it appears that In Trinidad, an Indian (read, Hindu) state-assisted school run by the Mahasbha 'fired' the principal for not following the directive ... NOT to admit children of African descent to that school. Another shade of Breach Candy! Good Lord! jc http://www.trinidadexpress.com/news/Colleagues_support_Tunapuna_principal-134011588.html In Parliament last week, People's National Movement (PNM) MP Patricia McIntosh produced a letter from Gajadharsingh-Nanga to the Teaching Service Commission in which she stated that general-secretary of the Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha Sat Maharaj had instructed her to not admit black children to the school. Maharaj has denied the allegation, saying he was being defamed by the media and the PNM as a black hater, and the high Hindu population of the school was due to the ethnic demographics of the surrounding area. He said Gajadharsingh-Nanga was not upholding Hindu principles and must resign. On Tuesday, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar said if allegations of racial discrimination at the school were true, they were totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated. She said the Ministry of Education was conducting an investigation into the matter. --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---

[Goanet] ILLEGAL to LEGAL (Mining in Goa)
Can we hold the State to Ransom for forcing the ILLEGAL to be Legal? It appears that this is what the Pro-Mining Lobby want to do, by their actions today 22nd Nov. If this the case, then perhaps the Builders Lobby, Drug Lobby, Prostitution Lobby, Corruption Lobby should also do the same, as surely here also people will stand to lose income significantly. The fact is that the few Mining Barons and MLA's, have made a disgustingly huge amount of money, mostly illegally and used the people getting a pittance from mining profits as Hostages, so as to try to continue their greedy agenda's. The fact is that Goans have to choose between continuing mining and destroying Goa's Environment and precious Water Resources. The solution is to bring to book the mining barons and concerned MLA's, recover the crores of rupees and use this money to compensate the ordinary people, affected by the Mining stoppage. Also Goa is has potential to be a wealthy state, which can sustain all Goans if governed properly and for the same, we have to immediately start to clean up the politics and the disgustingly high levels of corruption!!

[Goanet] COLUMN: Accidental Activist: Here’s our plan
Here’s our plan Why did the government ask the people to participate if it was going to entirely ignore their clearly expressed wishes? By Venita Coelho Moira decided to look at the Regional Plan as an opportunity. The government had invited people’s participation? Well, we would participate with a vengeance, and get exactly what we wanted out of this planning process. The first thing to do was to reject everything the government was foisting on us that was anathema. So hundreds of villagers filled in questionnaires rejecting the ten meter internal roads, the 25 meter District road that would go down the centre of the village, and the classification of the village as ‘ emerging township’. The committee then went around the village for months, carefully recording water bodies, water tables, heritage homes, landmarks, natural cover. We created three maps of our own that showed all that we wished to preserve, marking green lungs, water catchments areas and more. We passed all of this by unanimous resolution in a Gram Sabha and sat back, and waited. The Final RP2021 is here. Every single thing we asked for has been ignored. Every single thing we rejected has been put into the plan. The 10 meter roads and the 25 meter highway is there, along with new proposed 10 meter roads. A huge water tank has been proposed for an area that is highly eco sensitive. Huge swathes of fields have been marked ‘ settlement’. Is this a joke? Why did the government ask the people to participate if it was going to entirely ignore their clearly expressed wishes? Our idea of the future we wished for Moira was expressed through a very thorough and detailed report, through maps, through questionnaires, through a signature campaign, and through Gram Sabha resolutions. All of which got us absolutely nothing. This Sunday we again re-passed exactly the same resolutions at the Gram Sabha and the anger was extreme. One has to wonder at just how stupid this Kamat led government is. If people were willing to get on the roads to fight the RP last time around, did they think they wouldn’t this time? After asking for peoples’ participation did they think people would then be mollified and not question the final plan? Were they thinking of anything at all except how to sneak in big business and construction past the guard of the villages? Moira has not rejected the plan. We have no intention of waiting four years while another one is framed, with no guarantee of what that one will turn out to be. We are determined to get what we want out of this plan. We are doing all that is expected of us – filing objections, a new committee report, Gram Sabha resolutions. We are also trying to meet with the Chief Town Planner to present our point of view. But let no one mistake this for lack of anger or determination to get what we want. We are determined to stave off the concretized future the government is foisting on us. It is time for the government to listen to us and to every single village and take steps to incorporate our real wishes in this plan. If the next step is a show of people’s power on the streets of Panjim and in the election booth – so be it.

[Goanet] Mining: Goa's starving stomachs V/S Goa's choked lungs and damaged kidneys
It was a treat to watch several well fed and double sized pro-mining protestors drive into the city with their posh cars and march through the streets of Panjim with placards and banners appealing to save them from starvation. The appearance of these protestors gives the impression that they have enough body mass to starve even for six months. How long will this farce continue? We all know the hypocrisy and hollowness of the BJP and their faithful anti-mining disciples that tom-tom around town about their love for Goa. We cannot forget that elections are round the corner. So while a miniscule section (portrayed by the media as thousands) cries about facing starvation due to closure of illegal mines, what about the millions that choke from dust polution and thirst due to non-availabiltiy of clean drinking water caused by aggressive and indiscriminate mining? Can someone's Right to Livelihood deny another's Right to Life? -Soter --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---

[Goanet] Woman accuses live-in partner of rape
Woman accuses live-in partner of rape Tweet http://twitter.com/share Vijay V Singhhttp://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/toireporter/author-Vijay-V-Singh.cms, TNN | Nov 23, 2011, 01.03AM IST MUMBAI: A woman lodged a case of rape against her live-in partner after she discovered that he had married someone else. Based on her complaint, the Borivli police recently arrested the accused, Viral Parekh (31). The victim, who is from Hyderabad, and Parekh both worked in Dubaihttp://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Dubai and shared an apartment since 2006. They got into a serious relationship in 2008. The victim said that Parekh forced her to get an abortion three times. The first two times, she came to Hyderabad for the abortion. When she refused the third time, Parekh allegedly mixed an emergency contraceptive with her medication, causing her to miscarry. The victim told the police that Parekh's parents had lived with them for a month in Dubai and that they knew about their relationship. In 2010, Parekh came to Mumbai for his sister's wedding and got married in accordance with his family's wishes. After returning to Dubai, he did not tell the victim about his marriage and instead, continued his relationship with her. A few months later, Parekh decided to move out. When the victim asked Parekh why he was not marrying her, he said that he could not as they were from different religions. He told her about his marriage and allegedly said that he would divorce his wife and marry the victim, a police officer said. The victim discussed the issue with her family members and they approached Parekh's family, asking them to tell Parekh to marry her. Parekh's family refused to accept the relationship. The victim then filed a complaint with the Borivli police. The police also recovered obscene pictures of the victim from Parekh's laptop. On discovering that her live-in partner, Viral Parekh, was already married, the victim accused him of rape. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Woman-accuses-live-in-partner-of-rape/articleshow/10834952.cms COMMENT: I am more than perplexed about this story. When things go awry, then the cry is rape? It is interesting to note that contrary to the belief by many in the U.K., there is no such thing a common law wife or husband or partner. Here is a piece to put people on a warning notice! Cohabitation (Living Together Unmarried) [image: Net Lawman Legal Documents] Cohabitation More and more people, both hetero- and homosexual, are choosing to live togetherhttp://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Legal_Documents/Document_Listing/Marriage_and_Cohabitation/Cohabitation_Agreement without entering into marriage or a civil partnership. Many heterosexual couples believe that they will automatically qualify for some protection under the law if their relationship breaks down. However, as with gay couples (except those that have entered into a formal civil partnershiphttp://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Family_Law/Civil_Partnerships), their relationship with one another is not recognised as having any legal standing, and they have no special status in the eyes of the English legal system. If you are married and are splitting up, our Divorcehttp://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Family_Law/Divorce section offers specific advice relating to these circumstances. If you have just been living together then you should be aware that there is no such thing in English law as a common law wife (or husband for that matter). If you live together and your relationship breaks down then it is each man or woman for themselves. There are 3 essential things a couple who are going to live together should do: - make sure the house/tenancy etc is in joint names, in appropriate shares - set up a simple Cohabitation/Living Together agreementhttp://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Legal_Documents/Document_Listing/Marriage_and_Cohabitation/Cohabitation_Agreement - make Wills http://www.lawontheweb.co.uk/Wills -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes. --- Protect Goa's natural beauty Support Goa's first Tiger Reserve Sign the petition at: http://www.goanet.org/petition/petition.php ---
