Subject: [Goanet] Aloysius, nasal lavage, Marlon, cod liver oil and Uncle Tom
Hi Jose,
This is a sort of yogi trick -- the yogi centre next toCatholic Gym Bombay
sells you something like a feeding cup but smaller --you stick the spout in
one nostril bend over your wash basin and tilt your head sideways -- do
not swallow -- the water comes out through the other nostril and on the
way does enter the sinus chambers and tends towashthem clear also -- hence
the need to use water that is previously boiled and then cooled

I think India won the case against the basmati patent. Don't yet know the
status of the case against the neem patent. And I understand the latest is
an American patent on turmeric. Next they will be patenting Mother Nature
herself ;-)

Subject: Re: [Goanet] Parrikar: Engineering another Goa...
Hey, Tim to deal with politicians in Goa, one is forced to be crooked !
Which is one of the reasons why such few good people feature in politics.
Besides I think it's just a figure of speech the CM used to say that he can
get tough if needed.
All said and done Manohar Parrikar as CM is the best thing that has happened
to Goa in a long long time. This election is a good way of judging the
smartness of Goans in Goa. If they do elect the first non-corrupt,
hardworking, smart and sincere CM in a long long time (probably first one
ever) to power again, Goa will be on the way to further progress.... if the
last one year is anything to go by.
Otherwise, we can commence all our moans and groans again over poor
governance resulting in a shabby state of affairs in Goa......after all do
you see an alternative on the horizon ? Here's hoping the people elect
smartly this time at least instead of the usual way over casteist and
communal lines.
Cheers,
Sunila

- ---------------------------------------------------------------
[][][][][][][][][][][][] MAPUSA PLUS [][][][][][][][][][][][][]
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
[] Highlights of issue dated April 16-30, 2002
* Management of plastic is imperative, writes Capt Leo
Lobo, of the People's Movement for Civic Action (PMCA).
If Goa's local population bought home just one plastic
bag per day, we would have 14 lakh bags for disposal,
daily. Bags which are made of thin plastic not profitable
for recycling lie around in the environment for all of
200 to 300 years.
* Cartoonist Mario Miranda on late F.N.Souza of Saligao:
"His early works, which were very much influenced by
Goa, and his early writings as well, are excellent.
He was in Bombay at the best time for Indian art. He
became cynical over the years. But I personally think
he's India's best artist."
* It took courageous young priest Fr Andriao, Mapusa's
current parish priest, to state this year: "Spirit of
brotherhood will be encouraged... alcoholic drinks will
not be served nor allowed in the Church compound," writes
Minguel Braganza.
* Milagres Fest as Mapusa stays a symbol of Hindu-Catholic
amity. Hindu worshippers were seen making offerings of oil
and paying their obeisance to Our Lady of Milagres in the
Mapusa church, at a time when thousands perish nationwide in
flames of religious hatred.
* Mapusa's programme included days of togetherness (April15-17),
live band Man Machine, folk dances, Konkani musical show,
also bands Cream, True Colours, magic shows, etc.
* Teresa Trinidade at Sonarbhat Saligao has launched 'Cause Of
Our Joy' (COJ), a day-care centre for young girls and women
in distress. What is amazing is Ms Trinidade is herself
recovering from the trauma of losing her husband and only
child Patricia in quick succession.
* Ambrose Vaz urges the people of Saligao, Sangolda and Guirim
to "unitedly oppose the large-scale selling of water before
it is too late". Drying of wells in Saligao has been a recent
phenomenon in Saligao, he notes. "Don't you think that priority
of supply of water from the wells in the fields should be to
the surrounding fields, rather than to the hotels and
construction sites?"
* Says Sunil Naik of Mapusa: "The bridge near the Mapusa Church
at the Tar has been recently repaired and painted. The PWD
(Roads) needs to be congratulated."
* All over Goa, specially in towns, garbage is being freely
dumped in open spaces, into adjoining/vacant plots, along the
roadside, where it rots, the breeze wafting plastic bags and
the stink into the neighbourhood, writes John Eric Gomes.
* Sardessai Automobiles at Gaunsavaddo takes up repairs of
old and accident-striken vehicles. Shri Laxmi Sweets is one
of the oldest sweetmarts near the Mapusa taxi stand, and
retails its own brand of assorted Indian sweets. Ann Inst of
Hotel Management at Porvorim has announced a contest on
vegetable and fruit carving for women and men.
* Furtado's is India's leading music house. Offers acoustic
pianos, digital pianos, guitars, keyboards, drums, cymbals,
violins, wind instruments, tablas, sitars, harmoniums,
guitar and violin strings, music software, and much, much more.
Panjim Navelcar Arcade; Margao Grace Estate.
* Golden Rooster at Sapana Gardens, Alto Porvorim offers young
diners a place for a good meal and also where they can
let their hair down on a specially designed dance floor.
* At Aguada, the mariners of yore loaded as much water as the
ship could carry. There was no fear of the ship running aground
as it had already cleared the treacherous sand bar. It could
sail on to Africa.
* YCMOU open university of Nashik to hold its horticultural
diploma course exams at Purushottam Walawalkar HSS in Mapusa.
Details phone 250043.
* Thunder night at Pilerne, April 27 at football grounds.
Goa's Men Machine, Revivals and DJ Omar (Dubai craze) to perform.
* Moira students of St Xavier's are keeping busy during the
summer holidays with a crafts camp. River pebbels, kite paper,
old glossy magazines and a little glue ... is being made into
paperweights. This adds value to waste.
* St Joseph Calangute won the Goa state rural hockey under16
for boys. They beat St Anthony's Majorda 4-0.
* Acupuncture at Mapusa: Spondylitis and backache therapy.
