Subject: [Goanet] Blessed Vaz website
Dear all,
Denver Pinto (no relation, but I wish), is a great admirer of Blessed Vaz. He has
designed this
website as a tribute to a great Goan, Blessed Joseph Vaz.
http://www.josephnaikvaz.org/
The website is, as Denver says, evolving and will change over time.
On behalf of the Joseph Naik Vaz Institute I would like to thank Denver and the many
Goan and
non-Goan supporters of the Institute who have inspired us to carry on. It is my
sincere hope that
Venerable Agnelo and Blessed Vaz will be canonized soon, perhaps other Goans too.
Regards,
George Pinto

Subject: [Goanet] Bouncing messages
Netters - you probably all know that whenever a post "bounces" it comes
to me to fix. Many MANY posts have been bouncing lately due to the Klez
Worm. If your computer is infected and you send a message to GoaNet, it
will bounce and come to me in a message 132bytes large, and garbled.
Unfortunately I CANNOT send this back to the sender for correction, so
it just dies then and there.
So, if you've sent a message to GoaNet and you haven't seen it posted
AND you haven't heard from me, it's possible you're infected.

06 May 2002
FILING OF NOMINATIONS: The filing of nominations for the Goa Assembly polls
starts today with the issuance of a notification by the governor. (GT)
TRAJON LIKELY FOR SALIGAO SEAT: GPCC general secretary Trajon D'Mello has
been finalized as the candidate for the Saligao constituency by the Pradesh
Election Committee. The PEC decision comes at a time when talks for seat
sharing between the Congress and the NCP were on. (GT)
THE CASTE CONSIDERATION: The caste system has set in the electoral system
of Goa. It is not the character and the performance of the candidate that
decides the electoral outcome. On the contrary, it is the case
consideration that has turned out to be the vital winnability index. The
intricacies of caste and religious politics in Goa are so acute that had Pt
Jawaharlal Nehru contested in North Goa, he would have been rejected for
being Brahmin and in South Goa for being Hindu. (Ravindra Kelekar in NT)
PAWAR DOUBTFUL ABOUT ALLIANCE: Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad
Pawar yesterday expressed doubts about the formation of a united front of
secular forces to face the coming State assembly elections in Goa. (H)
KIDNEY CASES ON THE RISE IN CANACONA: Kidney failure cases are on the rise
in Canacona. As many as 20 cases of "mortality" due to renal failure have
occurred in the talukas. As per the information available, about 41 cases
of renal failure were reported ruing 1996, while 2000 witnessed 26 cases.
In 2001, the figure shot up, as 38 cases were reported. (H)
SIMPLY SCINTILLATING: If rock means pounding music then 'Deep Purple'
surely rocked Goan waters last evening. The band was at its best and a 5000
strong crowd swayed to the heavy and scintillating music of the Rock kings.
(GT)
RESTRICTED WATER SUPPLY: Water supply will be restricted to all the
consumers of Tiswadi and Ponda talukas and all the enroute villages,
including industries and defence establishments on May 6 and 7, due to
maintenance work on conveying mains at Opa. (NT)
HEAVY SHOWERS: After a very hot Sunday night, with a couple of blackouts
thrown in Goa, several areas in Goa experienced heavy showers, accompanied
by thunder claps, early today morning. (GoaNOW)
TREE UPROOTS: In a freak accident on Saturday, 18-year-old Salu Pereira
narrowly escaped being seriously injured when a huge tree topped over at
Altinho-Panjim, trapping him in its branches. (H)
LOVERS COMMIT SUICIDE: LoversKamlakant Datta Naik (32) and Savita Vishnu
Shirodkar (20), who were in love for the last few years, committed suicide
by hanging themselves to the roof of a rented premises at Haldai-Vaze in
Shiroda. (H)
RELEASE OF CHILDREN'S BOOKS: Yugved Prakashan, Margao, will be releasing 13
children's books at the hands of Power Minister, Digamber Kamat, on May 7
at 5.30 pm at Yugved Pustak Ghar at Aquem in Margao. (H)
FM MUSIC: The FM Channel of All India Radio, Panaji, since yesterday, is
already on air during noon time in addition to the morning and evening
sessions. (GT)
POINGUINIM RESIDENTS DEMAND RDA WORK FILES: Residents of Poinguinim have
demanded that files of the works completed under Rural Development Agency
should be made accessible them, so that they can be aware of the works
being undertaken in the village. (H)
POWERLESS MLAS ARE BOUND TO DEFECT: Strangely, in a highly educated state
like Goa, the people expect powerless MLAs to do the job of panchayats,
municipalities or government departments. (Nandkumar Kamat in Glimpses-NT)
ENGG COLLEGE LIBRARIAN FETED: Carlos Fernandes, librarian at Goa
Engineering College, was felicitated at the All-India Konkani conference,
which was held recently at Mangalore, for his efforts in getting a separate
classification code for Konkani literature in library science. (H)
