Re: [Goanet]Typical Goan 'XIRAP' - gender bias?
Good Morning Cecil...! We must accept the fact that Our Indian Society (Goan Included) thinks as follows : 1. If a Woman sleeps with TEN Men she is likened to a prostitute (kolvont mure tem..!, sogleanim kaloilam mure teka...!) 2. If a Man sleeps with TEN Women he is likened to a Hero (Pezad Sarko mure to...!, Vhodlo kombo mure to!) 3. A woman's beauty/attractiveness is limited to a certain age (are teka 35 vorsam zalim mure - atam kazar ani fuichem...) - while a Man is considered evergreen...Men are never considered over the Hill!

Saurabh Singh beat 200,000 students worldwide to top the prestigious International Scientist Discovery exam conducted by the National Aeronautical and Space Administration. The other two Indians who passed the exam are President APJ Kalam and the late Nasa astronaut, Kalpana Chawla. President Kalam was seventh in 1960 and Chawla 21st in 1988. Dingy study Now politicians, administrators, social workers and teachers are all vying to fete the boy from Ballia district. All this attention is so funny, says reticent Saurabh. His study is a dingy corner in a dilapidated house Saurabh's feat is all the more impressive because he hails from a backward district, with few passable roads and irregular electricity, in one of India's poorest states. His father is a teacher while his mother is a health worker with the local government. His study is a dingy, poorly-lit corner in a dilapidated house in obscure Narhi village, 55km (35 miles) from Ballia town. After scoring 72% in his school leaving exam, Saurabh left for Rajasthan state to prepare for his engineering school papers. He read about the Nasa examination in a newspaper and decided to take it. I had never even heard of Nasa before I saw the newspaper advertisement. I realised I was familiar with the subjects as they were part of my school syllabuses. So I decided to take a chance, says Saurabh. Grit and determination He says he studied up to 18 hours a day preparing for one of the world's toughest exams. Father Ram Keshwar Singh and son attend many ceremonies He was put on a 100-strong shortlist to appear for the final papers. When the results came in, the reticent young boy from Ballia had excelled in all five subjects - scoring A++ in four and A+ in one. Saurabh has now met President Kalam and cannot wait to go to Nasa. After reaching Nasa there will be no looking back for me. I will devote all my time to science and would love to return to India and work for my country, he says. For the moment, his father takes him from one ceremony to another in Uttar Pradesh. Everyone wants him to celebrate his success, says Ram Keshwar Singh. Even the state's legislators have decided to donate a part of their wages this month to set up a prize fund for Saurabh. Saurabh's recipe for success is simple - Where there's a will, there's a way, he says. Of course, honesty and determination should never be lacking. A Good Day to You.

Following are the few goa netters that i met up with : Frederick Noronha - Ever Smiling 'Fred' was the quiet 'Master of Ceremonies' and introduced everyone to everyone.

He used to be the Chief Guest at our college functions on several occassions. Silviano Barboza - 'Babush' as we know him is also a regular Chatter on Goacom chat. A very unassuming man - talented that he is. He released his book The Sixth Night at the meet-up and was kind enough to autograph a complementary copy for me in exchange of which I have promised him a couple of CDs of Mangalorean Konkani Hits. Babush and me goa long way and have interacted a lot on goanet as well as on chat and it was a great pleasure meeting him in person. Babush is a great lover of Konkani Music and has also produced a konkani music album called Classic Goa (if i got the name right) which also included songs sung by Lorna. Vivek Menezes - aka VM was there too - a lookalike of Sabeer Bhatia (the Hotmail guy). VM is a Hot Male too. He declined to be photographed - dunno why ! Desmond Nazareth - Originally from Mangalore - he is into film making and told me he makes documentaries and films (not the commercial bollywood ones). Quiet guy with a half Sai Baba hairdo. Melinda Powell - We all thought she was married to an Englishman (Lord Baden Powell) or an American (Colin Powell) - actually she is married to a south indian who is a Master Mariner and presently sailing with a Hong Kong based Company. I have a special affinity for anyone who is in the same business as me (Shipping). I expected Melinda to be this snooty, pouting woman (she is an ex-Air India Air Hostess and Air Hostesses always have had a bit of head weight) - but she turned out to be just the opposite - sweet, smiling and gentle. Good going Melinda. Bosco - Goanet Volunteer remembered exchanging mails with me and was there with his writing pad taking down the names of all those who had turned up. Daniel De Souza - He is from Vasco and I was meeting him for the first time though he is a vasco-car like me. Daniel happened to travel back to vasco with me after the meet-up and we had the opportunity to discuss issues pertaining to Goacom on our drive back. Joel D'Souza - the guy who sends us all the news clippings was accompanied by his son. Joel is the quiet behind the scenes man who was busy clicking all the action on his digital camera. I am sure he will have some of the pics circulated soon. Keep up all the good work Joel and thanks for your daily clippings. I also met up with Vivian D'Souza, Mario fernandes, Mario Dias, Margaret Mascarenhas, Brian Pinto, Floriano Lobo - those are the names I can recollect and many others too. Though I expected more members to show up - It was all in all a very nice afternoon and well worth the 7 + 7 hours drive from Mangalore and Back. Thanks once again to everyone who made a difference at Ernesto's. Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year in advance. With Warm Wishes, Vincent Andrade Mangalore

Once again we see Mr Aires Rodrigues using this forum to put forth his news reports (thats what it looks like). Check out the begining and abrupt ending of his post. Why did this post get passed by the moderators. We know the whole story so there is no need for the same to be repeated time and again. Besides that we also read newspapers and Joel's News - so where is the need for Mr Aires Rodrigues to post such repeats here ? The more he writes - the more convinced i am that his intention is not to inform the readers about the case - but just to malign someone's name. Dont stoop so low Mr Rodrigues - you are making a fool of your ownself by using this forum for your vested interests. We have had enough of this ! Vince _ Searching for your soulmate?

## # If Goanet stops reaching you, contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # Want to check the archives? http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/# # Please keep your discussion/tone polite, to reflect respect to others # ## I fail to understand how the following post of Mr Aires Rodrigues was allowed to be published by the moderators. Did they find this appropriate or are you guys being selective in releasing posts. Mr Aires Rodrigues is making a direct attack on Fr Newton- Yes or No . Fr Newton is 'innocent until proved guilty' and Mr Aires being a Lawyer must know this too well. If someone has launched a website in the name of Mr Aires - he can in turn do the same - but allowing him to wash dirty linen here is not acceptable. I am not questioning Mr Aires' background or his crusade against unlawful acts - but this is not the forum for him to clear his name. Whatever has happened in Ribandar is a legal case and we must allow the law to take its course. No matter how much Mr Aires and Fr Newton - directly or through proxies - try to post explanations - we wont be convinced until the matter is thoroughly investigated by the Police. I am of the opinion that the moderators must close any further posts on the Ribandar episode. Too much has been said by both sides - and this could also be treated as hampering investigations. So please put an end to this. If anyone wants to follow the case they can do so through daily newspapers. And we have heard too many of those statements about what if that girl was your daughter or niece ? WHAT IF YOU FATHER WAS SADDAM HUSSAIN ?, WHAT IF YOUR MOTHER WAS LORENA BOBITT ? WHAT IF !!

WARM WISHES VINCENT - Original Message - From: Cecil Pinto [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2004 3:41 PM Subject: [Goanet]Goenchi-manna - A brief explanation Candice Ezekwe wrote: 'What exactly does goenchimanna mean?' - Dear Candice, How coincidental that you ask this question on the eve of Maundy Thursday which, in the Christian calender, is the day the newspapers are full of advertisements by bakeries for Hot Cross Buns. 'Manna' as we all know is from the Bible. The Israelites were hungry on their flight to Egypt. It was a non-stop no-frills charter flight. What can you expect from Jews? So many centuries later, the Israelis still come to Anjuna the same way. Anyway they prayed to God and he showered upon them insta-vitamin tablets that they consumed. He then showered upon them tablets with rules written on them, which they accepted but ignored. Finally he showered upon them 'kadyo-bodyo' and 'manna'. 'Kadyo-bodyo' are made from pure sugar and cause diabetes, cavities, high blood pressure and tongue discoloration. 'Manna' is slices of the tapioca root deep fried. It is tasteless. If you really want to taste friend root, eat potato chips or try 'capam' that are available with roadside 'boje' sellers. Keep in mind 'boje' or 'bhoje' or 'bhojin' is Goan. 'Bhajias' are non-Goan and consists of only onions in a batter - which also is a root. Coming to your question Goenchin is a Chinese restaurant in Panjim. It is owned by the Kenis. The same family that owns Hotel Mandovi, A Pasteleria, Keni's Hotel, Keni's Petrol Pump and Keni Rogers. In 1943 when Hotel Mandovi was being built the architect was an American Jew named Ismail Knofler from a town named Havin in Texas. Now this Ismail was known to be quite a character. You can call me Ismail he used to roar after drinking at a local bar named 'Mitzvah'. He was also an excellent cook. After Hotel Mandovi was built Ismail was given charge of the restaurant. He introduced a dish named 'Manna from Havin' which was a hot spicy dish with tapioca as the base (according to local rumours Eric Clapton attempted this dish and was inspired to tears in Havin). All other dishes at the restaurant were quite acceptable but not this particular dish. One day the Kenis called for a meeting with Ismail. Ismail said Gajja Keni, the head of the family, we would like you to build us a Chinese Restaurant. Hokay! said Ismail. So Goenchin was built and the Ismail tried fobbing off his 'Manna from Havin dish on unsuspecting customers. Slowly the news spread and everyone knew that it was a dish best avoided. They started calling it 'Goenchimanna in hushed whispers, specially when children were around. That's how the phrase 'goenchimanna' came into existence. It is a word used to discretely say something is distasteful. Eg. Lawrence goes on and on about his goenchimanna book that has more reviewers than buyers! Since then 'manna' has been celebrated in song, dance and movies. Just recently there was a a Sanjay Dutt starrer named Manna Bhai MBBS. We also have the Hollywood comedy 'Throw Manna from the Train. There is a a popular TV serial named Manna ya na manna. Our very own Remo composed a hit song O Meri Manna. Cdez - a nice week! We zen iced cake! Which are both anagrams for Candice Ezekwe Cheers!

Besides, the US in its military and foreign policy is so much in bed with Pakistan ... why not they stop over in Pakistan for RR with their lover country which they are so much deeply in love with. In the current US budget, from George W. Bush, he has alloted USD 300 mil to Pakistan for development progroms ... and just USD 15 mil to India ! When you consider the size and population ratio of India::Pakistan, one would expect a reverse allotment in the budget... that of course assuming that the US had a certain neutrality in its foreign policy, which obviously is not.
