[Goanet] Fr. Anthony Saldanha, S.J. - Patron Saint of St. Peter's Church Altar Boys -RIP
Hi Everyone, It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you all of the passing away of Fr. Anthony Saldanha of St. Peter's Parish, Bandra, Bombay last night. It was Fr. Saldanha who whipped the St. Peters' Church Altar Boys group into shape and made them an exemplary Altar Boys' Organization for all the world to emulate. During my experiences in parishes around the US, I know how much the altar boys would wish for an administrator like Fr. Anthony Saldanha. A Goan and a Bardezkar, Fr. Saldanha was a long term resident of Bandra. His family had a quaint little cottage on St. Cyril's Road. In testy Bandra, where rivalry between the East Indians and the Goans was always at an all time high, Fr. Saldanha, who was a part of both worlds (Goan and long Term Bandra Resident) was the voice of Mediation and Moderation. He always organized the St. Peter's Altar Boys picnics in Manori, Vasai etc. (East Indian strongholds) so that we the Goan Altar Boys of St. Peters would better understand the East Indian guys. I bet many of the East Indian altar boys at St. Peters did'nt even know that Fr. Anthony Saldanha was a Goan, because of his fluency in Marathi and his non-parochial demeanor. Fr. Saldhana was also a consistent source of Soccour to the old Goans of St. Peter's Parish. They always were revved up after Sunday Home delivered Communion or meeting with Fr. Saldanha. In these days when Goan-East Indian rivalries are flourishing world wide in far flung places like Australia, Canada and the US, etc. Fr. Anthony Saldanha's life should be an example for all. I recognition of his devoted, exemplary service to altar boys, I think we should start a campaign to fast track him to sainthood as a patron saint of Altar boys the world over. There amy be a patron Saint of Altar Boys honoured by the Catholic Church, but whoever he is, he will not have done as much for Altar Boys as much as Fr. Anthony Saldanha ! Best Regards, Dr. Carmo D'Cruz, Indan Harbour Beach, Florida. ___ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
[Goanet] JUSTICE FOR SPORTSPERSONS.
JUSTICE FOR SPORTSPERSONS. This is in reply to Floriano Lobo goasuraj Pratima Gaonkar. (goasuraj) write up on 29.10.06 in response to my article on the suicides of sportspersons Angela Gomes and Pratima Gaumkar and harassment to Dr. Susane DSouza by Goa Sports Minister Maddkaikar. Florian I highly appreciate your comments on the said subject. I find in you and your party someone fighting for the cause of Goa and Goans dedicatedly. This I have seen with my own eyes. Your party is not like any other party in Goa that looks only for the election gains. You take up causes of public interest. I know your efforts to raise funds for Pratimas poor mother and while you were raising funds for her, Maddkaikar and others were sleeping in Goa. What have they done for the poor family members of Pratima? Why till now the person who has driven Pratima to commit suicide is not brought to trial? Where are Madkaikar and Congress Party? You said your Party will revive the cases into the deaths of Pratima Gaonkar and Angela Gomes and bring the culprits to book. This is a promise the Party makes to Sports loving Goa and Goans. I and innumerable friends of mine support you and your party on this subject and if necessary I will stand by you on this issue. The two suicides of Angela Gomes and of Pratima Gaumkar must be probed and guilty not only exposed but also punished. About Dr. Susane DSouza, she was my colleague at St. Xaviers College Mapusa for 4 years and also at Post Graduate Center Panjim. Besides a very good student throughout her academic career, she was an outstanding sportsperson and was a champion athlete in High Jump. She did very well even at All India level. She played number of games and participated in many athletics events at School, College, Goa and National levels. She possessed high moral character and was a disciplined girl during those days maintaining her high integrity. Madkaikar has no reason to punish her because Dr. Susane will not merit any such action from her superiors because of her high morals and other high grade characteristics. She has devoted so much of her youthful life for the cause of Goan sports and for such a person to punish in this way is a crime. SAG and Madkaikar will have to answer this question during the election time which is due shortly. I have already spoken to many of the people in Madkaikars constituency and they have also vowed to make this issue during the election time. I will also speak to Nirmala Sawant to make this as an election issue during the forthcoming election. Nirmala Sawant was an opponent of Mudkaikar during the last election. Three days back I called Tiatrist William de Curtorim to tell him to sing another song hitting hard Madkaikar for being revengeful towards Dr. Susane. Earlier in one song William praised Madkaikar and made him unnecessarily popular. Not only Dr. Susane but her great father Joviniano and her younger sister Yolanda brought laurels to Goa and Goans thru sports. Her father was once one of the top Goan footballers in Goa and also in Bombay while playing for Tatas. Arpora School during those days rarely produced such a gigantic and brilliant athlete and footballer. He was the pride of Arpora School then. His was one of the photos adorned the Display Wall of Arpora School during those days. Only the photos of outstanding sportsmen of Arpora School were displayed that time. Yolanda Dr. Susanes younger sister was also a good athlete and a top footballer representing Goa and even captaining Goan team. Dr. Susanes family members have given so much for the cause of Goan sports and to treat such a person shabbily by Madkaikar is like committing a crime which should not go unforgiven. I thought people from Calangute will raise this issue forcefully in Goa when their own daughter was treated shabbily by Madkaikar but surprised no saner voice came out from anyone in Calangute. Earlier Calangute was known to raise its voice for justice but now no, because the villagers of those days fighting for justice are no more in that village now, it looks. Florian Bab you said in your reply that Needless to say that the Party is distressed at the way Dr. Suzane D'Souza has been humiliated at the hands of the SAG and now the untimely death of Angela Gomes. That Dr. Suzane D'Souza had to knock at the doors of the High Court of Bombay at Goa to rectify the injustice over her emoluments is another thing altogether. Who are these guys who treat our persevering Goan athletes in this manner? The people of Goa and largely the sporting fraternity in Goa must make it a point to read the Chapter X (at Page 62) of the Party's ROAD MAP FOR GOA under Sports Leisure. Florian Bab, I have read your Road Map for Goa and am sure you will fight for justice not only to Dr. Susane, Angela Gomes and Pratima Gaumkar but also to all other such sportspersons. Now coming to young Goan

Re: [Goanet] Panjim or Panaji
We need to accept that there are different names for the same place in different languages. Bicholim/Dicholim, Margao/Moddganv (not MADgao), Chodan/Chorao, Divadde/Divar, Salgaon/Saligao, Haldone/Aldona, Kankon/Canacona, Kongotte/Calangute. The list goes on. Of course, you can't just mispronounce a name out of ignorance and hope to make it the norm. As former Indian minister Maneka Gandhi did when she told us of her growing up days in Bam-bo-liM (with a stress on the last M)! This changes across time too. Candolim is believed to have been Kand'halli (influenced by the Kannada suffix 'halli' for village... if one recalls right). So we have three options: (i) push whatever we see right (given our historical, political, linguistic, communal biases) (ii) accept what is obviously wrong, because of all this confusion, and an inability to face reality (iii) accept that diversity means that the same place could well have different names for different people. It works for people too. People know me as Frederick (in journalism), Rico (since schooldays), Frederico (at Britto's), FN (in some techie cicles), Freddy (while studying in Berlin) and, gosh, even Fred (a name I never adopted myself, but was forced to because in 1994 email systems simply didn't nine-alphabet log-in names on the Unix-based system I was then using).

Re: [Goanet] Quick reply from Goa NRI Commissioner's office. That's efficiency!
Silviano, Frederick is quite right. Don't be too happy with the quick response. Lets see what they put into action as opposed to what they mouth. It may be a classic case of good salesmanship but bad delivery. But I suppose you rejoice since compared to past experiences, there is at least salesmanship where there was only lethargy and rudeness before. I read the Gulf newspapers on-line and compared to what the Kerala Govt has been doing for its expats, the Goa Govt should be ashamed of themselves. Kerala offers its NRIs preference for good real estate opportunities, quick disbursement of remittances, identifies genuine businesses they could invest in, arranges for smooth burial proceesses of Keralites dying overseas, takes up legal cases of Keralites victimised in the Gulf countries and offers poor labourers good insurance coverage so that their families in Kerala are not impoverished should the bread earner perish. The list could go on and on. We Goans do nothing but talk. The Keralites do nothing but act. Roland.

[Goanet] MONDAY MUSE: A LITTLE MORE...
MONDAY MUSE (6 November 2006) A LITTLE MORE... In Don Bosco High School, an Italian priest, Fr Gatti, taught me English in the tenth standard. He was huge, humourous and a highly effective teacher. My language skills prospered under his nurturing. Although, he taught me only for a year, I continued interacting with him for three more years until he passed away. He had a lasting impact on my life and more specifically to the way I looked at life. He opened my mind's eyes towards seeing things around me with a larger and deeper perspective. During one such interaction, Fr. Gatti asked me, At what temperature does water boil? Promptly, I replied, 100 degrees centigrade And at what use can you put this 100 degrees boiling water To have a bath Fr. Gatti had a hearty laugh, You will get burnt all over if you bathe with 100 degrees boiling water Chastened and wisened, I spoke, You can make tea... cook vegetables... boil an egg... Correct! Now increase the temperature of the water by one degree. What will happen? The water will be transformed into steam! And what use can you put steam to? Fr Gatti queried. You can run a steam engine... you can run a ship... Exactly! Fr Gatti interjected, By just increasing the temperature by one degree, the result is magnified to thousand fold... from boiling a little egg to moving a huge ship or train. So often we speak about our frustration that desired results do not flow from what we believe to be our hundred percent efforts. Our sincerity and our efforts may be perfect. We are doing everything right... we are on the right track... but if results are not as desired, surely we need to put in that extra degree of effort... that extra degree of enthusiasm... that extra degree of persistence. That extra degree will help us achieve greater goals. May success not elude us because we have given up even when we are in striking distance! A little extra transforms ordinary into extraordinary Speak through action must be a continuous story! Regards Pravin 6 November 2006, Goa.

But like most other tiatr ads it was said 'Packed house in Panjim' http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=290166486size=l See pics 'BAILANCHI DADAGIRI GHOU RATNAGIRI by William de Courtorim. Like Chruchill Alemao Luizinho Faleiro never see eye to eye to each other, our William de Courtorim also seems similar situation with Lawry ( Osvy). There were at leat 4 songs (sung by others too) on 'Sacrament' or husband having affairs etc. At one spoint, William even gave small 'bashonn' saying Lawry Oswy left their wives ? and that Alfred Rose was the one and only one Melody King and for these he receive a big round of public applause. Crowed was about 500. Tickets were cheap too. Buy 2 and get one free (not really) but Rs. 40 (usaully rs.60) i.e. two ticket you need Rs.120 but you get 3 for 120 for William de Curtorim Tiatr. He also said to boycott all tiatr with Rs.60 and this way the ticket will atomaticlly come down to Rs.40. He also said his new VCD releasing on 25th Nov. He also praised Bardexkars more than Saxttikars and majority of actors were Bardeskars except Maria and her Husband Jack Rodson and another 2. Strangely, his daughter was not seen acting but saw some one like her at backstage helping tiatr setting etc. William sang only three songs. One solo (where he was called back 4 times, evrytime with his typical on the spot composition), one with Mimicry song -Voice of Kid Boxer, Young Meneges, Miguel Rod, Robin Vaz, Anthony Mendes etc and third one being Duo with Hortencio Pereira. http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=290166483size=o It seems more and more Tiatr are staged abroad now a days.

CHINTRNAM NUIM SOPNAM (to release Xmas Time) With Ophelia, Roseferns, Annie, Tari, Dr.Kiran, etc etc It is not by 'Jessie' as I thought earlier.

What ? Carmo proposing a Bardezcar for sainthood ? That will tilt the ratio towards the Bardezcars - tut, tut, cant have that. :) :) May Father Saldanha who has touched the hearts of so many rest in eternal peace.

Anthony Saldanha of St. Peter's Parish, Bandra, Bombay last night. It was Fr. Saldanha who whipped the St. Peters' Church Altar Boys group into shape and made them an exemplary Altar Boys' Organization for all the world to emulate. ___ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
[Goanet] State of Systems Engineering Programs in India and Lunch before Next Shuttle Launch at The Taste of Goa Restaurant in Cape Caneveral
Dr Shaikh, 'India has done very little in field of systems engineering' This was the headline in the Navhind Times which is the major English language newspaper in the State of Goa, India. I will tell my mom to hold the copies of the newspaper for me. This should be a good time to insert an ad for Florida Tech Systems Engineering Program in the educational section of the Times of India or Navhind Times. Also closer to home, I have just been told that the crew of the next Space Shuttle Mission at the request of apna astronaut Sunita Lynn Pandya Williams (MSEM-FIT- mid 90s) has decided to have their lunch before lift off scheduled for around 9pm that night, at my nth cousin Theodore Mazarello's restaurant Taste of Goa on Dec 7. The restaurant is located in Cape Canaveral on AIA just opposite the USA (United Space Alliance) facilities. Theodore did not know what the FBI is upto for this lunch before launch - even if they clear the dining room, he said the Florida Tech Dept of Engineering Management and Eng Systems and the Florida Tech administration is most welcome to have lunch in his spacious kitchen or in the verrandah out side the restaurant. Apparently Sunita has requested him to make some boneless tandoori chicken so that she can have it in space, along with with the Chappatis and Samosas and stash of imli chutney and hot sauce that she plans to take up there. See link to one of the many bios of Sunita on the Internet: http://news.asianweek.com/news/view_article.html?article_id=093d2ca3568045fa121ec4ae481f8be8 So with Sunita in Space, Systems Engineering in the news and our ads, and my trip to India with Balbir Singh, Florida Tech should be front-page news in India in November and December. My be we can gift Sunita a Florida Tech blazer (type-cleared by NASA of course) so she can flash it from Space during one of their widely televised press interviews from Space !

Re: [Goanet] Goanet's Three Generations/response to Roland
Frederick, For that grey beard, try Godrej's carcinogenic hair dye, guaranteed to make you never need a shave again. For that bald or balding pate, try Rogaine, good not only for hair regeneration but also for your blood pressure that arises when Cecil gets as tight as a drum courtesy of Goa's fine liquors. For those lackadaisical feelings, put on Carmo's patented pure silk kashti and stand in his open balcony facing the Atlantic Ocean. Who knows which bubbly American female may be looking up ward from the condo atrium. With regard to the kashti thing sorry, you might have to wait. Carmo had ordered the stars and stripes boldly printed on the front in typical American patriotic fervor, but the manufacturer being a true-blue Floridian told him the order would only be filled if he agreed to the Confederate flag instead. Carmo is now considering whether an Up Yours symbol would do the job. That would increase it's usefulness. If cut off on the I 75 to Miami, one could whip off the kashti and wave it at the offender.
