[Goanet] NEWS: Distilling a bit of Brazil: Cachaca in Goa... Jason Soares in NT

2013-10-07 Thread Goanet News
Distilling a bit of Brazil

Published on: October 6, 2013 - 22:17

More in:

Business and Commerce

By Jason Soares | BC

Cachaça is to Brazilians as Feni is to Goans. However, the Brazilians
coming to Goa during next year’s Lusofonia Games will surely not miss
sipping their favourite local spirit, for they can raise a toast to their
winning teams with DesmondJi Pure Cane, the ‘desi’ version of the Cachaça.

“We plan to offer our product to the Brazilians visiting Goa and hope to
pleasantly surprise them,” says founder of Agave India, Desmond Nazareth,
who is the brain behind the Pure Cane product that was launched in Goa
earlier this year.

What is interesting about DesmondJi’s Pure Cane is that it is made from
freshly pressed 100 per cent pure sugarcane juice, using a specially
selected species of sugarcane growing around the company’s site on the
Deccan Plateau. The cane extracts are then fermented and double-distilled
in Agave India’s small batch pot-stills to produce a smooth, clear spirit
that belongs to the international family of sugarcane spirits, like
Brazil’s famous artisanal Cachaça and Rhum Agricole from the French West
Indies. Surprisingly India, one of the world’s oldest and largest growers
of sugarcane, was until now, not known for producing high-end sugarcane
spirits, except perhaps in some unregulated ‘country liquor’ form.

“We are making an artisanal spirit which has a completely natural flavour
and odour, capturing it from freshly harvested cane and preserving it in
our packaged designer bottles. We manufacture the Cachaça-style spirit,
using processes and equipment similar to Brazilians, at a very affordable
local price, while maintaining international quality,” explains the IITM
techie turned spirit connoisseur.

DJ Pure Cane is currently available only in premium retail stores in Goa,
but will be launched in other markets like Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Daman
and Puducherry from November – December onwards. “Goa is a great test and
‘fan-out’ market for DesmondJi products. People taste our products here and
often take them home. We have been working on our Pure Cane product for the
past five years,” Nazareth highlights.

The Pure Cane represents a brand extension for the company in distilled
spirits, says Nazareth. “In Agave India, we focus on creating liqueurs,
spirits and easy-to-use alcoholic cocktail blends. We are planning to
launch a few more products in the market, starting as always with home-base
Goa. One of these is a charred oak finished spirit, to give the spirit
unique sensory characteristics.”

Agave India currently has production facilities in Andhra Pradesh and Goa.
The agro-facility and micro-distillery arm of the operation is located at a
44-acre plot in the Chittoor district, Andhra Pradesh, while the bottling
and packaging unit is located in South Goa.

“We are targeting urban middle-class consumers, so we focussed more on
making the ingredients of home-based party shots and cocktails, including
those much enjoyed by the under-served women’s niche market. The DesmondJi
brand has seven products in our current portfolio, which can be used to
make several of the world’s most famous cocktails, including the
‘Cosmopolitan’.

In just over two years, the DesmondJi brand has already made a significant
national and even international impact. Interestingly, it attracted the
attention of a famous but reclusive liquor baron, Switzerland-based Martin
Grassl, who sources and markets super-premium spirits around the world
under his own ‘Porfidio’ brand. Grassl tasted DJ 100 per cent agave abroad,
and highly intrigued by the DesmondJi brand story, even visited Nazareth in
Goa about a few months ago, to share experiences.

 “It’s been 13 years since I had the original concept for the products. We
are now a guerrilla alcobev company, with an outsize brand that is up
against powerful and deep-pocketed international companies and brands.
DesmondJi’s popularity has spread mainly through consumer driven
word-of-mouth, because of our affordability and quality vis-à-vis imported
competitors,”says Nazareth as he signs off

For long, Goa has been viewed as a soft state and one manifestation of that
was the recent mujra performance leading to the arrest of a Samajwadi Party
legislator not in some obscure hotel/bar/shack/ house in the coastal hub,
but Panjim’s Campal area.

Arun Pandey, director, ARZ (Anyay Rahit Zindagi), which was conceived in
1997 and is committed to combating trafficking for sexual abuse and
commercial sexual exploitation (CSE) in Goa, says that the mujra
performance at a hotel on August 27 by six girls coming from places as far
off as Delhi, Ghaziabad, towns in Punjab and Jharkhand/Chattisgarh, is a
new trend.  The man who had “supplied” the girls went absconding.

It’s no secret that the RSS thinks the assassin of Mahatma Gandhi is a hero.
So with the BJP ruling the State and with a CM who took his first political

the mouth is.  Least of all the government, whose promised subsidy scheme
that was launched on June 24 this year by Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar,
has been mere lip service.  And before that, no government did anything for

Late last month a 28-year-old Delhi businessman was arrested in Anjuna for
possession of 1.8 kg of charas.  He had been living in Goa for the past six
months and intended to start his own restaurant.  The building he stayed in
was taken on lease.  The Goa Police true to form did not reveal his name,
their excuse being that it would help their investigation further
notwithstanding the fact they had gladly announced his arrest to the media.
The words we believe they used were “because of the sensitivity of the

Anjuna, and that he wanted to set up a restaurant in Goa.

exactly how.  On my last broadband bill of Rs 1,038.21, the tax component

[Goanet] Restriction on Judokas revoked, Trials now in all categories

2013-10-07 Thread Sandeep Heble
Restriction on Judokas revoked, Trials now in all categories

Judokas hold heated protest; Court verdict expected today

sports@ herald- goa. com PANJIM:

The Goa Judo Association today revoked the ` suspension’ on the 14
judokas besides deciding to postpone the selection trials to a further
date, after engaging in a heated verbal discussion with protesting
judokas at the indoor stadium, Campal.

The decision was announced by a member of the Judo Association Sudesh
Pivrekar in the presence of the Association secretary Siddeshwar Naik,
SAG coaches and parents of the athletes including members of the Right
To Information forum, who were there in support.

The 14 judokas, some of who are believed to be medal winners for the
State of Goa, today unitedly protested against the unjust manner of
the Association in restricting the judokas from participating in the
Lusofonia Games.

According to information furnished this evening to the Herald, it is
learnt that tempers rose at the Indoor stadium, where the judokas were
protesting against the arbitrary decision of the Goa Judo Association
to suspend the 14 Judokas, who had filed a petition in the High Court
pertaining to the selection process for the Lusofonia Games. They also
opposed the Association's decision not to conduct selection trials in
some categories.

SAG coach Deepak Netardikar confirmed that it was announced by the
Association to revoke the restriction on the judokas and postpone the
selections trials to a further date. Another decision also taken by
the Association is that the trails would be held in all the
categories.

Judo association secretary Siddeshwar Naik revealed that the judokas
had protested in a very disturbing and un- sportsmanship manner with
banging and jumping on tables and that he would be reporting the
unruly and high- handedly behaviour of the judokas to the Association
Executive Committee.

Gurudatta Bhakta, President of the Goa Judo Association categorically
clarified that there was no ban on any judokas and that only 6 junior
players were restricted from the selection trails pending the decision
of the court case.

“ We now have however decided to revoke the restriction pending the
verdict of the High Court.” “ The juniors, whose performance are much
below par, want to compete in the Lusofonia Games along with the
seniors,” pointed out Bhakta, who preferred not to speak much on the
issue, the matter being sub- judice.

The High Court in all probability will be delivering its verdict
tomorrow , September 7th, on the case petitioned by the aggrieved
judokas.

[Goanet] Systems of distributing PORTFOLIOS.

2013-10-07 Thread floriano lobo




The brouhaha about the impending re-distribution of ministerial portfolios 
has taken some space in today's  Navhind Times and OHeraldo, but has been 
rightly given a wide berth by Times of India [Goa] and the Gomantak times as 
insignificant news to be published. The Goa Su-Raj Party commends the 
respective managements of these two newspapers for considering the 
re-distribution of portfolios being the internal matter of the Government 
that does not warrant any wide publicity, but only to make them aware about 
the infighting for the plum portfolios.


Goans can see the how ministers are clamoring for those portfolios which 
will be beneficial for them to expand their vote-banks, ensuring their win 
at the next hosting with headlines like these:


NT- 3 Ministers expected to lose major portfolios in reshuffle.
H - Ministers eyeing plum portfolios?

Contrast the above system of dishing out goodies, making the CM as the whole 
and sole Majordomo in the field to pat his favorites on their backs and sock 
those who he likes not in their noses, with the system designed by GSRP:


The distribution of portfolios [all] will be one of the secondary tasks in 
the Party Convention [after the election results are declared] which 
convention will select the CM as well as the Cabinet of 5  in one go and 
also distribute all, repeat all, portfolios to the 5 member cabinet at the 
outset, giving just one week's time for portfolios to be interchanged 
between ministers if they so want before sealing the portfolio charts for 
the next five years, where the  Ministers may change but their  portfolios 
will not.


At the Convention:
Electoral College will be  the  composed of the Party Executives, 
Constituency Working Committee delegates [2 for each constituency] plus 10 
rank outsiders possibly but erudite personages of Goa, irrespective of their 
party affiliations. Elected representative only sell themselves to the 
electoral college but cannot choose themselves any positions. Portfolios 
will come as a matter of collective choice thro' selection of a chart of 
portfolios on offer i.e. 5 charts where portfolios are evenly distributed.


All elected representatives may contest but only 9 will be short listed by 
the electoral college in the first ballot.

The second ballot will select 5 out of 9.
The highest scorer in votes in the second ballot is the CM, the rest 4 being 
the minister's in the 5 member cabinet.
CM's chart of portfolios will have 'Finance' and 'Home' and this chart will 
be handed over to the CM elect by the chairperson of the convention.
CM elect will then take the chair and call on the next highest voted 
minister to choose from the remaining 4 charts until the last is taken by 
the 5th member of the cabinet.


One week will be given for ministers to swap the portfolios among themselves 
before they are sealed  and published.


End of the story.

Let the Goan public decide if this is what it should be. GSRP considers 
every one of it's contesting candidates as CM category candidates.


Cheers

are in public domain.***



  *Apart from the R.T.I (Amendment) Bill, *2013, the Committee
discussed Prevention of Corruption (Amendment) Bill 2013 and Judicial
Appointments Commission Bill 2013 in Committee's meeting in Chennai.



   Political parties such as Indian National Congress, Bhartiya Janata
Party, Shiv Sena, MNS, BSP, SP and other political parties gave their
inputs on RTI Amendment Bill. Chief Secretary of Maharashtra, Shri
Jayantkumar  Banthia, Advocate General Shri Darius Khambata, Law Secretary
Shri Vijay Achliya  ,members of bar, senior advocates and NGOs, appeared
before the committee on the bill dealing with judicial appointments, RTI
etc.



  Committee will also hold meetings in Mumbai and Jaipur from 6th to
10th of this month, Mr Naik said. In Jaipur apart from the three bills, the
Committee will hear the views on *Rajasthan Legislative Council Bill 2013.**
*



  **

* *

 Mr Naik said that as regards RTI, Committee is examining  the scope of
the definition of public authority in the Act as passed by Parliament and
whether the Commission *has expanded the definition, which has resulted in
Parliament *introducing , the bill as a corrective measure.



 Further Mr Naik said  that the committee is also examining whether the
*exhaustive information which is required to be given under RTI if provided
to be given to the *applicants ,what will be scope of such information and
consequences of such disclosure on functioning of National and State
parties in India.



   Committee is examining whether proceedings of the meetings of
various confidential nature held by political parties, which are held for
the *short listing and/ or finalising candidates will be required to be
disclosed if the judgment of CIC is made *final and the bill does not
become a law, Mr Naik said.



As regards Judicial Appointments Commission Bill, 2013, the
Committee is examining its scope in the background of the existing system,
which neither gives an exclusive jurisdiction to executive to make
appointments in judicial appointments nor does it proposes to continue the
present system where the judiciary alone has the say in the matter of
judicial appointments.  *The bill, which is a via media is being examined
from that angle.***

* *

* In countries like U.K, U.SA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, NEWZEALAND, SOUTH
AFRICA, SINGAPORE, FRANCE, GERMANY, SRI LANKA, JAPAN  AND RUSSIA, IT IS THE
GOVERNMENTS WHICH PLAY PRIMARY ROLE IN THE MATTER OF APPOINTMENTS TO THE
JUDICIAL POSTS. COMMITTEE IS EXAMINING THIS ASPECT TOO, Mr naik said***

 The bill on the Prevention of Corruption (Amendment) Bill 2013
attempts to improve the existing law by making provision to punish *bribe
giver, make* provision which requires government sanction,  mandatory
for *government
servants, after retirement or *after  they cease to hold office.



Mr Naik said the bill also proposes to *punish persons in charge of
commercial organisations trying to bribe public servants.***



  It also provides for *confiscation of bribe and proceeds of bribery and
attachment of properties accumulated by corrupt means,* Mr Naik said.

Sandra, Theotonio,
Have you'll noted the road named after our Goan Poet, Adeodato Barreto,
from Loutulim, in Lisbon.

I think it is in the Almada suburb, alem da Ponte 'Salazar'.

My notion of its exact topographical location is a bit hazy, because when I 
accompanied his brother, Dr Norberto,  D. Flavia, to honor Adeodato's 
memory, it was after they had feasted me most opulently  copiously. 

My neighbour, of whom I have heard great legends, from his legion Lotlicar 
contemporaries, would have granted me full marks for the mood I was in

Alfred de Tavares,
Stockholm, Sweden.

BTW: Dr Agostinho, the opthalmologist, known to sundry Goa, featuring the 
ubiquituos dois poixe philatelic Estado da India stamp over many years, does 
have a memorial in Lisbon; as well the Avenida Gama Pinto?


 

  

[Goanet] Maulinguem gripped by tension

Samir Umarye

BICHOLIM: Tension prevailed in Maulinguem village on the state's border
with Maharashtra, as a discussion over a property matter sparked off heated
arguments between the stakeholders.

The heirs of the local landlord, late Babasaheb Rane, had called some
villagers from a ward for discussion to settle a property dispute.

When villagers from the other four wards learnt about it, they thought they
may be left out and converged at the scene. Nearly 175 villagers gathered
and demanded that the matter be sorted in a transparent manner. A police
team led by Bicholim PSI Tukaram Walke rushed to the scene.

The trouble started after the heirs to the property started selling plots
in the disputed property. Locals claim they have a stake in the property
while the heirs say they inherited the property from Rane.

A special meeting deal with this issue has been called on Sunday at 10am at
Maulinguem.(ToI)

OHeraldO - October 6, 2013 - MGP REITERATES MARATHI DEMAND [Pg 3]

The Goa Su-Raj Party  is not surprised by the renewed demands made by MGP that 
Marathi be given the Official status in Goa. MGP will have nothing important to 
say than this rubbish as long as this sorry Party's name remains 
Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party. Goans must note that those who are demanding 
Official Status for Marathi in Goa are asli MAHARASTRIAN masquerading as GOANS. 
Goans must remember that  the  KULDEV of these Maharashtrians reside not in  
Goa but in the heartland of Maharahtra. 

The Goa Su-Raj Party's official agenda is to amend the Language Act, 1987 to 
remove (1) The Konkani Script shall be   in  DEVANAGRI, and (2) Marathi shall 
also be used for all official purposes. GSRP will see to it that the pipe dream 
of Maharastrians in Goa shall never ever be realized.  This is the promise that 
GSRP has made to GOANS when it was born 13 long years ago and will see to it 
that this promise is fulfilled  totally and completely. If Official status for  
Marathi is sought by Maharashtrians in Goa, then let them confer the Official 
status for Konkani in Maharashtra. Goans shall then have no qualms to accept 
Marathi in Goa under these terms. Period.

[Goanet] Goanet Reader: Coconut and Goan Pyramid Jaggery (Shamika Andrade)

2013-10-07 Thread Goanet Reader
Goan Girl on all things Goan on Coconut and Goan Pyramid Jaggery

Shamika Andrade
shamikaandr...@gmail.com

It was August 15, 2013. I still remember the date. My sister
and her kids had just arrived for their summer break. India
commemorated 66 years of Independence and the Catholic Church
celebrated the feast of our Lady of Assumption.

  At home, after early morning mass and a
  multicultural flag hoisting event, we rejoiced like
  every other veritable Goan family by making
  patolleos (pronounced pathayo).  If you are Goan
  and you are reading this, then I'm sure your eyes
  are glowing, your tummy rumbling and your mouth
  salivating by now.

So for our annual patolleo-making ceremony this year, ladies
of all shapes, sizes and age groups gathered around the
dining table.  This included my niece who is six years old to
her Pontimai who is 86.

You see, we had a very important mission at task... Goan rice
was soaked overnight and then ground into a fine paste with a
pinch of salt. It then had to be flattened onto turmeric
leaves and filled with juicy freshly scraped coconuts and
copious amounts of Goan jaggery. And then, this divine
creation is steamed. At this time, the men of my family of
all shapes, sizes and age groups, captivated by the aromas
finally venture into the kitchen.

You can add cardamom if you choose. We choose not to as we
like the raw taste of the Goanness -- Goan rice, Goan jaggery
and even coconuts from our trees in Goa.  Substitute the
jaggery and the rice for anything non Goan and it's just not
the same.

It was a good day. That's all I remember. We all sat by the
table and laughed and talked as we filled ourselves with
fresh coconut and Goan jaggery caressed by rice, embraced by
turmeric leaves and steamed with love...

August came and went. So fast, just like this year.

So one rainy day in September when the clouds were grey and
heavy and the sky looked like it was going to fall, I decided
to surprise my grandparents with alle belle for tea.

Ah ha! Does the word alle belle make you hungry too?

  Delicious, soft, melt-in-the-mouth... this sweet
  Goan pancake is a favourite in most Goan
  households.  It is a favourite at mine.  The only
  tip I can give you is to get the pancake real thin
  and fine, just like a dainty lace handkerchief.
  The type of handkerchief a pretty damsel would drop
  by mistake, so that a handsome prince picks it for
  her and sniffs it for its perfume.

I digress, for cooking makes me creative and happy. Or is it
happy and creative

Like patolleos, alle belle uses freshly scraped coconut and
Goan jaggery.  You could even stuff the pancakes with coconut
and a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of sugar.  If you ask me
my preference, coconut jaggery alle belle wins hands down.

And since October has only just begun, I decided to make
vhonn. semi-solid, smooth, creamy and velvety, Vhonn is
almost like a traditional Goan rice kheer.

But do you know something? I'm out of Goan pyramid jaggery.

Now the thing is, I don't live in Goa. The shops here don't
sell Goan pyramid jaggery And I refuse to use an other
jaggery.

Definately not Manglorean jaggery! Just not the same. Never
the same!

Viva Goa,
Until my next,
Yours truly,
Goan Girl
