Re: [Goanet] Sack Goa's Chief Town Planner S T Putturaju for colluding with violators: GBA
The Dy. Town Planner of Vasco Mr. Shrikant is more dangerous. He too should be sacked...

The GBA quoting excepts from the order pointed out that the High Court has clearly censured the Town and Country Planning department for choosing to side with the violators, instead of standing on the side of truth, even as it termed the part of the construction falling within 100 metres of the High Tide Line as illegal. The Chief Town Planner, S T Putturaju, who has been directly involved in the illegality committed by Goan Real Estates Pvt. Ltd., by filing the false and fraudulent affidavit in Court, thereby conniving... as rightly pointed out in the order, be asked to step down immediately from the post of Chief Town Planner which he has denigrated by his action, or he should forthwith be 'sacked' by the Chief Minister who is also the Minister for Town and Country Planning, the GBA demanded. The court has already said that Like Goan Real Estates Pvt Ltd the other authorities before the Court - the TP, the VP and the MEF - have all sung the same song. It is only the petitioners who have alone steadfastly opposed the wholly illegal construction of respondent No 6 in the NDZ of the CRZ within the 100 m setback line. The petitioners have justifiably contended that there is connivance between the government authorities and Goan Real Estates Pvt Ltd. We are shocked that the Chief Town Planner in his affidavit tried to confirm the project as being approved as a hotel project in 1995 (plan 122) and not a Residential Project (Plan 117) as it was then approved, the GBA said. It may be recalled that the Panjim Citizens Welfare Trust has been fighting a seven year long battle in the High Court, against the Aldeia de Goa Hotel against the authorities working across several governments both the Congress and the BJP. None of the governments has been on the side of truth and the petitioners have had to resort to the judicial system after successive governments failed to uphold the law. The second Judge, F M Reis, has agreed with the findings of Justice Dalvi, that the plan at page 117 is the plan that was duly approved and not 122 that was illegal, Justice Reis has expressed his inability to agree with the findings with regard to the demolition of the construction. Justice Reis has found it appropriate to quash the NOCs as well as the construction licences issued to the respondents, GBA said. The GBA however is concerned that this will allow the present illegal construction to go on. He has placed the ball in the Court of the same Statutory Authorities (Town Country Planning, Village Panchayat, etc) that have obviously connived and colluded to examine the revision/re-validation of the plan afresh on the basis of the plan at page 117. This effectively allows for the respondents to finally get what they wanted through the blatantly false affidavit of the Chief Town Planner of Goa, the GBA said. Punish lying, corrupt, town planner says angry GBA, now is the time for change (Target Goa) 20, Mar 2014 Goa Bachao Abhiyan held a meeting to deliberate on the issues that emerged in the recent High Court judgement on Writ Petition 403 of 2007 in the Aldeia de Goa (Hotel Grand Hyatt) matter. Two plans one legal and one illegal bear the same date. The Chief Town Planner caught out on falsehoods. The main issue that emerged was the conclusive evidence of collusion of government officials with the builders to allow illegal constructions in No Development Zones. The collusion is evident with vital files going missing, false affidavits, despite complaints from the public, no action by TCP officials and other government bodies. The complaints were regarding hill cutting and eco zone violations. The meeting resolved to highlight the blatant falsehoods in the affidavit sworn in Court by Mr S.T.Puttaraju Chief Town Planner in November 2012. Putturaju actually endorsed a fraudulent illegal plan as the legal plan. The GBA demand stern action against Putturaju. GBA is aghast at the deception of Mr Putturaju. On the one hand he kept assuring GBA delegation that he is against illegal constructions in the Aldeia case and then he brazenly colluded with the builders by making false submissions in their favour in his affidavit sworn on oath. The writ petition was filed by People's Movement for Civic Action and Goa Foundation represented by Patricia Pinto (PMCA) and Claude Alvares(GF) against Aldeia de Goa (Hotel Grand Hyatt0 and

[Goanet] ‘Amchi Bhumika Sompta’ - Tiatr review (different story, worth watching)
The world is a stage and we are the performers. Oldrin Sequeira, in his maiden presentation titled ‘Amchi Bhumika Sompta’, presents the tale of a man who is a stickler for the truth but ends up messing his life as well as that of his family. Mr Sapeco, a widower with two children, Kenneth and Lizzie, is a businessman. Kenneth hates liars and is ready to cut off all relation with anyone who tells lies. Mitsy, the only daughter of Sapeco’s friend, marries Kenneth and the household is extremely happy. One day Mitsy tells Kenneth that she wants to visit her father and instead goes to see a friend due to some emergency. When this is revealed to Kenneth he accuses Mitsy of lying without even asking for an explanation and cuts of all relations with her. The father intervenes and using the support of another lie tries to bring about a reunion between the estranged couple. The script has some good lines and the presentation is quite sleek. In fact, Oldrin scores in the direction extracting good performances from the entire cast. Tracy does a wonderful act as Mitsy. Watch her emote, especially in those scenes depicting pain and helplessness. Olga is Lizzie, also playing the hearted sister well. Mini Mario is perfect as Sapeco and so is Anil Pednekar in a subdued performance as Kenneth. Oldrin and Anthony de Verna lend good support. Jane, Marcos and Pedda provide the humour. The comedy plot is based on retired Kuwaitkar who now runs a Bar in Goa. The sequences of these three - Cyril Almeida and Marcus with Oldrin - are extremely funny. A D Diniz has given good music for the opening song by Olga as well as other songs by Jane, Anil, Coney-M, Marcus, Inas and Mini Mario. Solos by Oldrin and Cyril Almeida need mention. The play has a different story and is definitely worth watching. (Navhindtimes.com) Borgeee

[Goanet] Dempo to play at Sharjah - AFC Champions League
All the Goans in U.A.E please come in full force support Dempo Sports Club. Defending I-League champions, Dempo Sports Club are confident of getting a positive result from Wednesday?s AFC Champions League play-off match against Al Sharjah club in the play-off match, which kicks off at 7 p.m. local time. It will be a do or die battle for both teams, as the winners will qualify for the group phase of the prestigious competition, which has been revamped by the AFC this year. The vibrant Dempo SC had the first feel of the local conditions on Monday evening as the entire team led by their dynamic coach Armando Colaco, practiced at the Al Sharjah SC complex at a lush green playfield. With the plush complex hosting the Sharjah club?s own floodlit stadium, the Dempo team was more than satisfied with the day?s practice, although it was light in nature. Keeping in mind that the team had to endure the travel hassles and also overcome tiredness after playing their previous I-League match on Friday against Air-India at the Cooperage, coach Armando Coalco said he opted for a light practice just enough to keep the players warmed up for the day. With the weather quite apt for the 4 p.m. training on Monday, the team is looking forward to tomorrow?s 7 p.m. training at the main stadium, which should give them the right kind of acclimatization needed for match day. ?The boys are doing fine and we are all prepared for the all-important clash on Wednesday,? stated Armando Colaco after Monday?s training. India?s most renowned club coach also added that playing in the AFC Champions League competition was also a matter of great pride for Dempo club. ?Right now the entire focus is on winning the match against Al Sharjah and the boys are trading their guns on that job,? a confident Armando said. The team has also watched a CD of Al Sharjah?s recent match and going by that Armando feels that Dempo have the credentials to beat them. ?It may be advantage Sharjah as they are playing on home ground. But let me tell you it?s all about creating chances and putting the ball into the rival net. That?s the ultimate thing,? Armando asserted. On Al Sharjah, Armando, said: ?They seem to be a good side. From the CD evidence I feel they are content with crowding tactics and might opt for a defensive plan. But we too have a definite plan to counter them.? Team manager, Custodio Alemida added it is a matter of great pride for Dempo SC to qualify for the AFC Champions League and having already made history last year by making the semis grade of AFC Cup, the club could not have asked for more exposure at this level. ?The AFC exposure over the last two seasons has definitely made the team more mature and I am confident of a positive outcome on Wednesday,? Almeida added. Meanwhile, if the Dempo-Al Sharjah match ends in a draw in regulation time, the result will be decided in extra-time and if the deadlock persists, tie-breaker shall be employed as it is a play-off tie. source : navhindtimes.com

[Goanet] Women Want German girl to undergo test or Aires to apologise
Want German girl to undergo test or Aires to apologise Oheraldo.in - MARGAO, OCT 29 Women and youth on Wednesday expressed their solidarity with Warren Alemao and charged social activist Aires Rodrigues for dragging the younger Alemao in a rape case with the sole intention to target and malign the image of his uncle and PWD Minister Churchill Alemao. They demanded that either the minor German girl should undergo medical examination to prove the charges of rape or her mother and Aires Rodrigues should apologise for tarnishing the image of Warren by levelling baseless charges of rape. The women said Rodrigues has tried to malign the image and damage the reputation of the parentless child, whose father was brutally murdered and whose mother recently expired after prolonged illness. An effigy of Aires Rodrigues was also burnt as a mark of protest for what they called as false and defamatory allegations against Warren. Most of the women and youth, who turned up for the press briefing hailed from Alemao’s home village of Varca and Navelim constituency. Warren’s uncle Ciabro was seen outside the city hotel where the press conference was held. Addressing a press conference in the city here, the women maintained that they have come together to tell everyone that Warren is totally innocent and demanded to know why a budding youngster is being targeted in a bid to target his politician uncle, Churchill Alemao. “In this hour of agony and sufferings of this parentless child, we stand solidly behind this youth to enable him to withstand the onslaught against him”, they said. A minor girl from Navelim sought to know how the German girl can claim she is raped when she has refused to go for medical examination. Celina Goes wondered what would be the future of Goan youth when youngsters like Warren are being targeted without any evidence, while Damiana Pereira expressed shock that Warren has been accused of rape. Demanding to know why Aires Rodrigues is supporting the German mother, She suspected a political conspiracy to target the Alemaos. The women also questioned the German mother for letting her daughter go for discos and night parties, saying “as concerned mothers, we will not let our daughters just go out for discos and parties”. Nicole Coutinho said no mother would have remained quiet for 15-20 days if her daughter was raped and demanded to know how Warren could be blamed for rape when the girl is not ready for medical examination. Similar sentiments were echoed by Matilda D’Silva and Francisca Fernandes. Francisca said the people of Goa would not keep quite if the mother of the German girl and Aires fails to apologise. Nelly Rodrigues said the girl’s mother should apologise for making the baseless allegation against Warren, saying the youngster has been unnecessarily dragged and implicated in the case. Farrel Furtado, Maria Rebello, Mumtaz Turki and others also spoke. Youth leader from Varca Alario Fernandes and others demanded the arrest of Aires Rodrigues for defaming Warren with rape charges. He and others questioned why Aires is not taking up issues affecting local youth abroad and in Goa. Giving a clean chit to Warren, Solomon D’Souza sought to know from Aires what would be the future of Goan youth if such baseless charges are made against them. Walter Pereira, Shanil D’Costa, Menino Caido, Joseph Rodrigues and Borges Rebello also spoke and came down heavily on Aires Rodrigues.
[Goanet] Churchill Alemao's nephew sexually abused the German Girl?
German girl's mum accuses another Goa minister’s kin of rape 23 Oct 2008, 1419 hrs IST, PTI PANAJI: In another twist to the rape case of a German, the girl's mother on Thursday told police that State Public Works Department minister Churchill Alemao's nephew, Warren Alemao, had also sexually abused her 14-year-old girl along with education minister Atanasio Monserratte's son Rohit. We have submitted to the photograph of Warren in compromising position with the girl traced on the net, Aires Rodrigues, counsel for the mother, told a press conference here where the German woman was also present. We have passed on the entire information to the police who are investigating the charges against Rohit. If police demands, we will give a formal complaint. But I don't think the complaint is required as the investigating agency is probing the matter from all the angles, Rodrigues said. The German mother on October 2 had accused education minister Atanasio Monserratte's son Rohit of raping her daughter. The Police, after initial delay, had booked Rohit on October 14. She said that she came to know recently about Warren's involvement in the case and promptly passed on the information to the police. The mother said that she had heard about Warren being her daughter's friend but never met him. She has a big friends circle and its intermingling. I had heard these names (Rohit and Warren) but never met them, the German woman, who is in Goa for a research project, said. Rodrigues stated that during one of the telephonic conversations, Alemao had conceded involvement of his nephew in this case. He had named Warren's elder brother. But in the photograph we have found his younger brother, the legal counsel told reporters. He said that the police have taken all the email addresses of the victim girl and they are checking the details.

While Utt Goenkara has nothing personal against Mr. Monseratte, it is time to start the cleansing of the degenerated and rotting public life. We agree with Mr. Monseratte that you need no educational qualifications to be a Minister, but the issue is that Mr. Monseratte had lied on Affidavit that he was S.S C when he knew very well that he had not passed the 8th std.

[Goanet] Snake on an Air India Plane
Times of India NEW DELHI : Crew on an Air India passenger jet discovered a snake coiled up under a seat and were unable to catch it as it slithered around the plane, the airline said on Thursday. The snake was disturbed during a routine check on the Air India A319 aircraft, which had landed at Delhi airport after a domestic flight from Srinagar. It evaded capture by slipping into an air vent and could not be found even when staff unscrewed panels inside the fuselage, opened all the doors and fumigated the plane. There was commotion which scared the snake and it went further inside, an airport official quoted. Reports that the snake was a venomous cobra were denied by an Air India spokesman. The aircraft was parked at Delhi airport for maintenance purposes. There was a snake but not a cobra, he told. We have no details of what kind of a snake it was, or where it is now. We have taken up this matter with Delhi airport authorities. He denied reports that the snake had caused the plane to be grounded or that its next flight, to Mumbai, had been delayed. The incident, which occurred on Monday, echoed the plot of 2006 hit film Snakes on a Plane starring Samuel L Jackson and Julianna Margulies
[Goanet] Life is a misery for “Married Bachelor s” in UAE
Life is a misery for “Married Bachelors” in UAE Leaving their families and children in their home countries, a large number of expatriates are forced to live a bachelor’s life in the UAE. They are unable to bring their families here because of high rents and the spiralling cost of living.They miss their children as much as their children miss them back home. The suffering is part of their deal for a better future as they try their best to cope with the situation, which is not always possible. T Ramavarman speaks to a number of expatriates to know their views. When 33-year-old Jose Landicho, who works as a surveyor in a private firm in Dubai, receives a call from his two-year-old son back home in Manila, the Philippines, his heart aches. However, he quickly recovers and consoles his son with the usual ploy, 'I will come home tonight, and bring a gift for you.' Discreetly he tells his wife over the phone to buy a gift and give it to the son the next morning. The following day, he makes the child believe that he had come home late at night and had left a couple of hours later. The case of 40-year-old Hussein, a store-keeper-cum-accountant in a foodstuff firm in Abu Dhabi, is no different. His six-year-old daughter yells over the phone from his home in Goa, India: 'Papa, be with us. All my classmates are accompanied by their dads when they come to school. Why are you not here to drop us at school?' 'There is no life when the family is not with you. I can't bear this any longer. I'm planning to go back for good when my current contract comes to end by November,' says an exasperated Hussein. Helmi Mohammed Saleh, 32, who hails from Yemen, leaves his family at Ajman to work in the Human Resources Division of the Gulf Contracting Company in Abu Dhabi. 'I'm very upset over being away from my family. But it is very expensive to get a flat in Abu Dhabi. So I stay here as a single and go to Ajman over the weekends to join my family. My mother is there with my wife and three children,' he says. 'I feel sad as well as happy to be staying here alone,' says Saud Afroze Khan, who works as an accountant with the firm, Olenter, in Dubai. Saud left his wife in Karachi, Pakistan, soon after his marriage. 'Happy because I can lead a casual life without much personal responsibilities. I can devote more time to work and entertainment. But I feel sad because I miss a partner in life, especially on holidays,' he says. Mohammed Baroodi, who hails from Hartoon in Sudan, says he has been here for the last 21 years working in the purchase section of a private firm. 'I had to send my wife and three children back about seven years ago because of the rising costs here. I miss my family. Initially it was extremely difficult, but now I've learnt to adjust with the predicament,' he adds. These are only miniscule representation of the plight of the phenomenally rising population of 'married bachelors' working in UAE. With the sky-rocketing rents and cost of living they cannot afford to bring their families here. Unfortunately, the rising cost of living has not yet reflected in the wage levels of the expatriates in the region. And with the growing travel expenditure, frequent travels to home have been curtailed. According to recent reports, a survey by Arabian Business indicated that nearly 60 per cent of the expatriate population in the Gulf region are contemplating moving away from the region in the wake of the rising cost of living here. The worst hit are those in the lower-middle class. For the low-income workers, labour camp accommodation and minimum level of food provide some solace. But those who earn between Dh2,000 and Dh7,000 struggle to find accommodation and lead a decent life. 'Until two or three years ago, it was possible to lead a comfortable life and make some saving, even in a salary of Dh2,000 a month. But now you can't get a single room accommodation in less than Dh3,500. In areas like Abu Dhabi there is also an acute shortage of rooms,' says Muralidharan from Kerala, India. Muralidharan, who works as a designer with Emirates Steel Wool in Abu Dhabi, said he was now sharing a room with four 'married bachelors' at Electra. 'If the landlord asks me to vacate, I will have no option but to go back home. At the new rental levels I will not be able to take up a fresh place, unless my salary is doubled,' he said. Some of the expatriates complain that the rent hikes are arbitrarily imposed on them by the landlords. 'Take it or leave it' is often their attitude. 'My landlord almost doubled the rent three years ago from Dh26,000 to Dh48,000. I was compelled to pay that rent. I could not have relocated to a new place with my family,' says Piroz Khan from Kerala, who works as accountant with a private firm in Abu Dhabi. Piroz says he has now sent his family back to Kerala as his son wanted to study there, after completing the higher secondary
Re: [Goanet] Astoria, The Hotel
Hi Selma, The Goan Cultural Society and Goan Sports Club is not active. We don't know who is taking care of the funds they have approx. Dhs 200,000/= plus. About Astoria - Only one dance is organised every year at this place during the Bandra feast. The place in now gone in dogs. The bars are full of prostitutes from diffrent countries. It has become a pick-up joint for many. Last year Siolim Boys organised one dance in Dow Place hotel the seamens club organises annual San-Joao feast rain dance. regards, Frankieee --- On Mon, 7/21/08, Carvalho [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Carvalho [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Goanet] Astoria, The Hotel To: Goa's premiere mailing list, estb. 1994! goanet@lists.goanet.org Date: Monday, July 21, 2008, 11:54 AM Astoria, The hotel There are places of worship that become museums, landmarks that become a visible chronicles of history, monuments that come under the protection of UNESCO’s World Heritage Center, and then there is the Astoria. A three-star hotel in Bur Dubai, known to every Goan within a 500 mile radius. For the Astoria is the chosen venue for almost every Goan function. When I turned thirteen, my parents decided I should be initiated into that all-important Goan rite of passage, The Goan Dance. There in the darkened ballroom of the Astoria hotel, in my white dress with polka dots and butterfly sleeves, I had my first glimpse of this ritualistic ceremony of excessive drinking and frenzied dancing. Unfortunately for me, my under-aged Goan consciousness was permanently marred by an over-zealous and heavily drunk Goan uncle who insisted on dancing half the night with me, and punctuating his jokes with a wink which I mistook for a congenital twitch. Over the course of the years, the Astoria would become the venue for many rites of passage, such as learning the Birdie dance, ignoring the buttery bad breath on my partner, falling in love, breaking-up and finally having my best-friend get married and abandon me. Through it all, we danced, sang mandos, hollered out the first two lines of Auld Lange Syne, ate sorpatel, Russian salade with may’naise and Bebinca sometimes brought it all the way from Goa. Here a special mention must be made of the Goan Cultural Society and Goan Sports Club, who worked tirelessly by arranging cultural events, New Year’s Eve dances and the more renowned Goan football tournament held during Ramadan, to keep the Goan cultural spirit alive in the Gulf diaspora. Some years later when my parents in their omniscient wisdom decided that my brother would finish his education in the US and I in Goa, I didn’t sulk. I was elated. I was going back to the mother-lode of kurruddin, jive, heart-breaking renditions of Sting’s Roxanne and every diaspora mother’s dream, a gene pool of good Goan boys. This time hopefully without the congenital twitch. - Info on the current status of the Goan Cultural Society and Goan Sports Club would be appreciated. selma

Narvekar, along with eight others, were charged on Thursday under various sections dealing with cheating, criminal conspiracy, forgery, for the purpose of cheating, and causing disappearance of evidence. The Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC), Margao (south Goa) Pooja Kavlekar framed the charges in the infamous case which had rocked the state during an India-Australia ODI played on April 06, 2001 at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Fatorda (Panaji). The match had witnessed chaos outside the stadium when fake tickets were reported and eligible ticket carriers were not allowed to watch the game. Following ruckus at the gates, the police had resorted to lathi-charge to disperse the crowd. Narvekar has been charged in the capacity of Goa Cricket Association (GCA) President, who was heading the organisation of event. The case will come up for hearing in the first week of July. Charges are also framed against GCA's former Secretary Vinod alias Balu Phadke, Treasurer Ramashankar Das, ticket contractor Chinmay Falari and five others.

[Goanet] NRI groom? Rejected!
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/3088517.cms NRI groom? Rejected! Hot careers, independence, wanting to be there for their families. Just some of the reasons eligible Indian women wont up and move abroad after marriage. Which explains the decline in the demand for NRI grooms, once considered most-desired prospects on the marriage market. Make-up and hair expert Swati Gupta says theres no way shes moving out of Bangalore, leave alone India. Doing anything outside Bangalore is out of the question for me. Im professionally established here. I dont want to throw all this away for an NRI husband, she says. Career apart, Swati is keen on being there for her parents. After a few years, I want my parents to travel while I keep things going here. So its definitely a Bangalore groom for me, she says. Senior sales executive in a media services company, Sonia B, also says commitment to family is one of the reasons she wont consider an NRI groom. Besides, with someone who lives so far away, the picture is always hazy. Its too risky to marry someone nobody knows anything about, she says. Haribabu Injam, who runs a matrimonial services company, concedes that increasingly, career women are not interested in NRI grooms. Girls here have good jobs in MNCs and earn fat salaries. They dont want to give that up and settle for an NRI groom, who more often than not having lived in an alien culture is shy, introverted and unable to adapt to the girl, her friends and family here, he explains. Usha, learning professional in an IT company, refuses to accept the sense of displacement that comes with marrying an NRI. I wouldnt have the courage to give up my job, get married to a person living abroad and do nothing there. I may be open to doing the same here because its familiar territory and easy to get back to where I was if I wanted to, she says. Despite such clarity among women, Velayudhan AP, who runs a matrimonial services and astrological research company, says women looking for spouses online tend to tie the knot with NRI grooms. Its dangerous because after 2-3 months, these women realise that the men are not suitable and file for divorce. NRI grooms have usually had pre-marital relationships that havent worked out and finally concede to marrying a girl from here. Also, they dont always tell the truth about their jobs and salaries. Some are in deep debt and demand dowry. No smart Indian woman will put up with such duplicity, he says.

[Goanet] AI to resume Goa-Dubai service to be resumed in the next 10 days
AI to resume Goa-Dubai service soon NAVHINDTIMES.COM The air services from Goa to Dubai that were discontinued abruptly in the recent past are expected to be resumed in the next 10 days, with the Air India authorities working out their schedule. The station manager of National Aviation Company of India Ltd, which now operates under the brand name of Air India following the amalgamation of Air India and Indian Airlines, Mr Anil Kaul said that the flight would be operated twice a week. He said that besides working out the schedule, the authorities have to complete some other formalities such as landing permission, etc. He also said the Air India would operate an Airbus 320 service on the sector, adding that once the formalities were completed the services would resume. The national career was operating three services to the Gulf region including Sharjah, Dubai and Kuwait, which has sizable number of Goans in the region and who preferred to take direct flight to and from their homeland from the places where they work. While services to Dubai and Sharjah were discontinued, but to Kuwait is still operational. The service to Sharjah was unlikely to be resumed as it was just half an hourâs drive from Dubai, but there was possibility of increasing the frequency of flights to Dubai. With the state government making all out efforts to promote Goa as a tourists destination to people in Arabian Gulf, resumptions of flights to Dubai and starting of flights to other destinations would help the state in its endeavour as people would be able to avail direct flights to enter and exit Goa.

[Goanet] Now, an Internet 10,000 times faster than broadband
Now, an Internet 10,000 times faster than broadband - OHERALDO LONDON, APRIL 7 (Agencies) The scientists who invented the Internet have now built a lightning-fast successor that can download a full-length feature film in five seconds, with a speed around 10,000 times faster than a normal broadband connection. Cern, the particle physics centre that created the World Wide Web, says what they have named The Grid would have the power needed to transmit 3D holographic images; allow simultaneous online gaming with lakhs of players; and offer high-definition video telephony for the price of a local call. Professor of physics at Glasgow University David Britton, who is a leading figure in the Grid project, says: With this kind of computing power, future generations will have the ability to collaborate and communicate in ways older people like me cannot even imagine. It is to become operational this summer, when Cern scientists switch on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a new particle accelerator they have built to probe the origin of the universe. The Grid has been designed to capture the gargantuan amounts of data it generates. Cern, which is based near Geneva, in Switzerland started working on the Grid seven years ago, when researchers realised the LHC would generate data equivalent to 56 million CDs each year if they were stacked one on top of another, the pile would be 40 miles high. Cern was where Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented the Web in 1989. But it is not powerful enough to handle this much data if it was used, the entire Internet could crash worldwide. Thats because the Internet is linked by cables and routing equipment that was originally designed for telephone calls. It lacks the capacity for massive high-speed data transmission. But the Grid has been built with dedicated fibre optic cables and modern routing centres. There are no outdated components to slow the data. Over 55,000 servers have already been installed to store the data, and this network will expand to 200,000 within two years. Technical Director of the Grid project Prof Tony Doyle says: We need so much processing power, there wouldnt be enough electricity to run the computers if they were all at Cern. So the new network has to be powerful enough to send the data instantly to research centres in other countries. This parallel Internet is now built, using fibre optic cables that run from Cern to 11 centres in the United States, Canada, the Far East, Europe and around the world. From each centre, further connections radiate out to research institutions, using existing high-speed academic networks. Britain alone has 8,000 servers on the Grid system in theory, any student in these chosen institutions should be able to hook up to the Grid rather than the Internet by the end of this year. Grid project leader Ian Bird says grid technology could make the Internet so fast that people could stop using desktop computers to store information and keep it all on the Grid. It will lead to whats known as cloud computing, where people keep all their information online and access it from anywhere, he said. But the real goal of the Grid is to work with the LHC in tracking down natures most elusive particle, the Higgs boson. Predicted in theory but never yet found, it is supposed to be what gives matter mass. But even at optimum performance, The LHC will generate only a few thousand of the particles a year. Analysing the mountain of data is such a huge task that it will keep the Grids gargantuan capacity busy for years to come. The bad news is that the Grid itself is unlikely to be available to domestic Internet users, but the good news is that many telecoms providers and businesses are already introducing its pioneering technologies. One of them, dynamic switching, creates a dedicated channel for Internet users trying to download large volumes of data such as films. In theory, a standard desktop computer could download a movie in five seconds using this technology, rather than the three hours or so it takes today. But the Grid will be made available to academic researchers, including astronomers and molecular biologists. Cern scientists claim it has already been used to help design new drugs against malaria. Researchers used the Grid to analyse 140 million compounds, a task that would have taken a standard Internet-linked computer 420 years. Projects like the Grid will bring huge changes in business and society as well as science, experts say. The history of the Internet shows one cannot predict its real impacts, but they are bound to be huge. You rock.

Goan crazy — a place I would recommend everyone visit.
Goan crazy By Vidhya Venkat - gulfnews.com http://www.gulfnews.com/explore/Journeys/10202990.html Published: April 05, 2008, 00:34 After spending months planning our holiday to Goa, one that we had been dreaming about for ages, the time had finally come when we were all ready to discover a new world. Only a speck on the world map and situated on Indiaâs western coast, Goa is popular as a major tourist destination. Just last year, my parents, cousin and I visited this magnificent paradise, which filled our hearts with ecstasy even before we set foot there. We travelled business class on Emirates â a truly luxurious experience. The seats transformed into full beds with footrests. In-built massage options were just a click of a few buttons away. In natureâs lap From the airport, we were chauffeur-driven in a black limousine to The Leela Palace Hotel, one of the most awe-inspiring and opulent hotels in town. Perched on a rock face, the hotel was cradled by two strikingly majestic and unspoilt beaches on which we spent most of our holiday sunbathing and sun-basking, gazing at the panoramic views around us. It was an overwhelming experience â waves crashed on rocks while the sunlight glinted on the rough surface of the ocean and melted into occasional shades of lemon yellow and reddish-orange. Elegant swans circled the shore while the wind whistled through the coconut groves. The blue sea stretched to the horizon and as I dug my feet into the soft white sand, the salty air stinging my face, ruffling my hair and the swirling waves tickling my toes, I could not imagine a better place for a honeymoon or a holiday. Romantic cruise Apart from the beaches, the lovely, romantic dinner cruise on the river Mandovi, with an appetising and authentic Goan cuisine, fantastic ambience and live disco karaoke, was a special treat for everyone. I loved every moment of the holiday and now that Iâm back home, I find myself yearning for more. The pleasant memories of this visit are so vividly etched in my mind, it seems as if it had been yesterday. Memories galore The first impression of the place is that of a land of golden beaches dotted with coconut trees â a place I would recommend everyone visit. It will leave them with beautiful memories and a longing to return to its shores. You rock.

[Goanet] New technology could rid Dubai of wast, including plastic bags, forever.
New German technology could rid Dubai of waste By Kevin Scott, Gulf News Reporter Dubai: A team of German scientists say they have developed the technology to rid Dubai of waste, including plastic bags, forever. The city has been targeted as an ideal strategic location for Ecocycling, a revolutionary new concept developed by scientist Franz Philip. The process involves turning waste, both household and toxic, into a raw material that forms the basis of a new product that can be used in the construction or oil industry. The new technology could transform plastic bags from being an environmental menace into a substance with many benefits. Gulf News has been campaigning against the use of plastic carriers and is urging people to say No to Plastic Bags. Waste-free Michael Engelhardt, Managing Director of Clean Planet Limited, the company with exclusive distribution rights to the pioneering technology, said the UAE had the opportunity to become the first waste-free country in the world. We have invited Techno Park, a subsidiary of Dubai World, to come and view this absolute zero-waste technology. It would have tremendous benefits for everyone living here and the impact of future developments on the tourism industry would be fabulous. It would dramatically change the city's environmental situation. Ecocycling is a cold mineralisation process where waste is torn apart and molecules are encapsulated in the resultant silicate structure. Numerous materials can be developed from C.M500. It can be used as a basis for road construction, desert greenery or to produce Xment, a product much harder than standard cement that can be shaped, like plastic, if Xfibre is added. C.M500 can also be used as a revolutionary new oil binder because the mineral sucks up sludge when poured on to an oil spill. Data from the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) shows the UAE has between 30 and 40 million tonnes of highly toxic and dangerous oil sludge. Engelhardt said Ecocycling was a much better alternative to dumping, incineration and normal recycling. He said: Waste in Dubai is being dumped in landfills in the desert. It has become a huge problem because the landfills are located in important development and residential areas. This technology would particularly benefit Dubai as it already has a very severe waste problem that will only get worse as the population continues to grow. A test plant is currently in operation in Wurzburg, near Frankfurt, and they are awaiting final approval from the German government. ECOCYCLING this is how it works Ecocycling is a cold mineralisation process where waste is torn apart and molecules are encapsulated in the resultant silicate structure. The waste is transformed into a mineral called C.M500, a non-toxic product suitable for applications in the construction or oil industry. Household waste, including plastic, is put through a huge shredder and reduced to small pieces about 10 centimetres in size. Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are separated before the waste goes through a grinder to reduce it even further. Toxic waste is then added to the household rubbish, which produces a chemical reaction. Magic powder containing nine basic additives is the final ingredient added to the mix. The process, which has no effect on the environment, creates the mineral C.M500. You rock.

[Goanet] Mickey Pacheco under fire, - US, Japan, Russia .....
--- 2008 International Goan Convention Toronto, Canada Early Bird Discount Registration closes March 31, 2008 http://www.2008goanconvention.com --- While the rape and murder of Scarlett Keeling has led to Britain updating its travel advisory to Goa, on March 7, other countries like the US, Japan, Russia and Israel have all separately questioned the Goa Tourism Ministry with concern. Foreign offices of the above countries have written to the Goa Tourism Minister Mickey Pacheco asking why they shouldnt issue travel advisories declaring Goa unsafe. In the wake of frequent foreigner deaths, and with causes of over 50 such deaths in the last five years still remaining a mystery (still awaiting laboratory reports), and reports of a thriving drug mafia, Im being asked questions about action taken. The foreign offices of Britain, US, Japan, Russia and Israel have all written to me about Goa turning into a unsafe tourist destination, Pacheco told Sunday MiD DAY. The Association of British Travel Agents (ABTA) in London has already dashed cautionary messages to their clients traveling to foreign countries. Pachecho added that he would constitute a tourism task force to allay their fears. And while the tourism ministry is trying its best to prevent Goas image from being maligned as an unsafe destination, the home ministry in Goa has blamed the tourists themselves. With the Scarlett case generating interest with questions being asked, not just about the deceased, but now also about her mother Fionas past the Goa government does not have a clear answer. However, Goa Chief Minister Digambar Kamat does not think tourism will be affected due to a few isolated cases, which, he said, had been blown out of proportion by the media. Talking to Sunday MiD DAY, he said, Goa has always attracted tourists from different parts of the world and is safe as always. Kamat had earlier controversially said that foreign women tourists had to be careful, and that they couldnt just do these things and then blame the government for the consequences. On this, he clarified that all he meant was that as we take precautions when visiting a foreign country, tourists visiting Goa needed to be cautious too. Meanwhile Goa home minister Ravi Naik told Sunday MiD DAY that he was in the possession of a criminal investigation department (CID) report which highlighted the fact that foreign tourists wore beach outfits even while walking down the Anjuna market road stretch. These foreigners also use their children as carriers to transport drugs, Naik said, blaming Fiona Mackewon of using her children for the purpose. The home minister accused Scarletts mother Fiona of having drugs on her while making a trip to Karnataka. This will soon be proved, he said. Fiona has denied this. Though Naik, who has been accused by Fiona of trying to hush up the case to protect a few influential people (read drug mafia), refuses to acknowledge that Goa has turned into a hotspot for the drug cartel, he claims that it was always the tourists who were involved. The involvement of tourists is evident from the fact that nearly half of the people arrested in narcotics cases are foreigners, he said. The inspector general of Goa Kishan Kumar said, In 2007, the death toll from drug abuse was 59. And 55 foreigners died in the previous year, Kumar said. Records however reveal that in half the cases, touching 350 in the last five years, the cause of death still remains unknown since the viscera report is yet to received. In 2008, the number of cases sent for viscera analysis is six of twelve deaths, the head of forensic medicine, Goa Medical College (GMC) Dr Silvano Sapeco said. All the cases were referred to laboratories in Hyderabad and Mumbai, because drug abuse was suspected. All these cases pertain to foreigners, Sapeco said. The viscera report establishes whether death was due to presence of drugs or poison in the stomach. Goa does not have such a laboratory. Till reports arrive, it is difficult to invoke Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code (murder), Nerlon Albuquerque, the police official suspended in the Keeling case, said.

Re: [Goanet] Come on Ravi....your reputation is our reputation

[Goanet] 7Days Dubai : Police say British teen was ......
Article printed from 7DAYS General and Local News | Dubai Abu Dhabi | UAE: http://www.7days.ae Police say British teen was murdered in Goa Monday 10 Mar, 2008 Police in the popular Indian resort state of Goa have launched a murder investigation and arrested three local men after the partially naked body of a British teenager was found last month on a beach. The announcement came after doctors conducted a fresh autopsy and concluded that 15-year-old Scarlette Keeling was murdered, and did not drown as local police had initially insisted. We are investigating it as a murder case, senior Goa state police official Kishan Kumar told reporters yesterday, the morning after a panel of three doctors conducted a six-hour examination of the body. There will be detentions now, he added, without providing details, although sources say the owner of a cafe on popular Anjuna beach where Keeling was last seen alive is likely to be questioned. But Kumar denied allegations by Fiona MacKeown, Keelings mother, that police had tried to hush-up the murder. Police never failed in their duty. They were right on the track, Kumar said. MacKeown pointed to the large numbers of bruises on her daughters body to bolster her call for a second examination after an earlier autopsy concluded the girl drowned in the Arabian Sea. The first autopsy found only five bruises on Keelings body, but Saturdays examination discovered as many as 50, with many of them believed to have been inflicted before she died. The family suspects Keeling may have been sexually assaulted before she died.

[Goanet] Tiatr : He Goynche Put - a good presentation!!
Inacio de Canacona presents He Goynche Put a drama based on the sacrificial life of a priest, his brother and parents. A different story and a good presentation!! Anushka and Lazarus have two sons. One has been ordained a priest and deputed to a place with plenty of communal violence but also with a need of a missionary. The other son, Derrick, was a no good womaniser but has turned a new leaf with the prayers of his brother as well as some good advice. He is going to marry Riya, daughter of PI Braz, a honest cop. On the day of the wedding the family awaits the arrival of the priest, who is supposed to celebrate the nuptials. But there is some terrible news.Watch the rest in this impressive drama that has a nice message at the end. The title He Goynche Put refers to Fr Agnel and Fr Jose Vaz and the director exhorts the Goan youth to emulate these holy priests. The Script has some good dialogues especially between the young priest and the leader of the religious bigots. The cast has a couple of veterans but mostly fresh faces; Natty makes a fine debut on the Konkani stage with a beautiful performance as Riya. Her stage presence, dialogue delivery and overall acting are very good for a newcomer. Keep it up Natty, we hope to see more of you on the stage. Jessie plays the role of the mother in her usual confidence and Flavia acts as the nun. Neville is perfect as the young priest and later as the Vicar, and so is Baptist as the unfortunate Derrick and Inacio as the leader of the communal goons. Peter de Merces is the father, Lazarus and Gabriel, the honest cop. Marshall is the sacristan in the Church. The tragic tale is offset by good comedy from Rumaldo, Pitush and Allwyn, who present some good fun. The opening song is rendered by Inacio with music provided by Braz de Xelvona. In between the acts there are some nice songs form Inacio, Jack, Rosario and an impressive trio from Inacio-Neville-Baptist.

He can kill for a �Sorpotel� and loves �Feni�
There is No Better Venue than Goa for the IFFI by Christina Viegas navhindtimes.com In a one-to-one with Christina Viegas. Kabir Bedi, Indias popular International actor, says that he can kill for a Sorpotel and loves drinking Feni Striding towards me with the magnetic royalty of the majestic lion itself, actor Kabir Bedi is all smiles when asked about his relationship with Goa. In regal style, he states, I have been coming to Goa for the last 30 years. Even when I was abroad, I made it a point to come down to this beautiful place. I was even present when Goa hosted the International Film Festival of India, for the first time. So, what draws him to this maravilloso paradiso? Bedi replies, Everything about this state is beautiful its people, the atmosphere. I love drinking the feni, while, I can kill for a sorpotel. I mean there is such a wide range of Goan delicacies to satiate the taste buds your vindaloos, xacutis, cafraels, everything. Quickly, he raises his voice, I plead with the legislators to pass legislations that will necessitate that the builders who buy land have to build houses in true traditional Goan style. This has to be strictly followed otherwise they will ruin the landscape of this beautiful place. What is the stars take on Goa being announced as the permanent venue for the IFFI? The lion roars, I feel there is no better venue to host this festival. The festival has definitely grown. This year 176 films from 46 countries were screened, 117 were foreign films and 49 were Indian. The organisers deserve to be praised, everything was very well organised and this can go on to become one of the most important festivals in the world. But, this calls for a long term vision, and for the involvement of huge corporate funding. While most felt that this year the IFFI was more cinema oriented devoid of carnival activities, the actor opines that these activities should not be done away with entirely. He explains, The festival is about films, but it is also about showcasing the Indian culture, whether it is the floats from Goa, or the Bhangra from Punjab. Full of life, Bedi is extremely excited about the closing ceremony of the festival where he plays host. He says, It is definitely not going to be a song and dance kind of ceremony, but more focused on the awards. And, it is so appropriate to have the Spanish film Fados as the closing film. With Lisbon as the iconic backdrop, it involves music and the culture of the Portuguese which ties it to Goa and is very much in sync with Goa. Get easy, one-click access to your favorites.

My response: Had there been a prize for the champion jumper to unwarranted conclusions you would have won it hands down. Sample some of your feats of just the past two weeks: 1. The KBM mentions the words Romi Konkani in its press release regarding a workshop for budding Konkani writers in Roman script. Ergo, you scream: KBM MALICIOUSLY uses the phrase Romi Konknni (15 Nov/11). And this expression is something the group you have been rooting for has been using day in and day out for the last two years and more; but you never ever noticed. But when you noticed the letters KBM, immediately you saw malice. By the way, I attended the function held to release Marcos Gonsalves Konnsam at Margao Residency on the evening of Sunday, 25 Nov. (The function concluded the publishers shibir for budding Konkani writers in Roman script that was held during the day at the same venue.) Tomazinho Cardoso, who released the book, used the expression Romi Konknni several times during his short speech. So did Agnelo Alcasoas and Michael Gracias in theirs. This only means that you have not succeeded in educating even your cronies on the MALICIOUS connotations of this expression. Unless, of course, these worthies too bear malice towards Konkani in Roman script! 2. You found that, at the Condolence Meeting held in Panaji to mourn the late revered Fr. Moreno, some persons whom you expected to attend were missing. Ergo, you say that they BOYCOTTED the meeting. (25 Nov) Have you ever heard of anyone boycotting a condolence meeting before this? I havent. And why should anyone boycott a condolence meeting? A boycott is essentially used to record protest, resentment or, at least, displeasure; and one generally announces this or at least tells some people; without this formality, the boycott becomes meaningless. Did anyone who, according to you, is supposed to have boycotted the meeting tell you that he/she/they had boycotted it, whether before or after the meeting? Else, how did you jump to this conclusion? And why would anyone even think of boycotting the Condolence Meeting for a saintly (even if senile in your reckoning!) priest like Fr. Moreno? Even sworn enemies dont do that. 3. The Condolence meeting on 24 Nov. ORGANIZED by Konknni Ekvott was HELD at KBM School Hall. The reason for choosing this inconvenient venue was that the Margao Municipal Hall is closed for repairs/renovation and hence not available. But you jump to the conclusion that it was KBM that ORGANIZED this meeting (25 Nov). You further propose that the reasons for converting a workshop into a seminar be DISCUSSED AT THAT CONDOLENCE MEETING. My dear Miguel bab, is your head in the right place? Are such issues or anything for that matter, ever DISCUSSED during a Condolence meeting? 4. And now, you have jumped to a gem of a conclusion. I said this proposition is at least A rational one, and not THE rational one. And you jump to the conclusion that I support that proposition! All I meant is that this proposition is rational compared to the stupidity that you have been pursuing for the last few years. Was the meaning so difficult to discern? Or is this too much to ask of a columnist writing exclusively for English readership?

Siolim fought back for Reynold Agnelo to put them on level 1-1 with a brilliant 20-metre free-kick. The referee for this match was not up to the mark.

Mog assundhi!! borgee Goan Soccer in Dubai Mr Eugene Correa thanks for that update, the goan soccer tournament in dubai is organised so sheepishly that it is shameful to see a small cotorie of people fumble all the time. Over the years things never improved, infact the rebel soccer tournament organised last year at al nasr was so professionally organised that the one at iranian club should take lessons from them. Goans abroad are never united, unlike their other counterparts. they act typically like the crabs in the basket...the social organisations in dubai related to goa are excellent examples. Thats the exact reason that unlike kuwait, qatar and other gulf countries, Dubai doesnt host any great goan event of its own, except an occassional tiatr. Further more, the senior organisers try to put obstacles in the way of others when you try and organise an event. Having personally being involved in events management and hosting them, i have seen it personally. Also, as you try to paint the current soccer organisers in bright colours, can you tell me or the world why was a certain media man (a close friend of mine) not allowed to play for a team he wanted to, despite being medically fit...were the organisers biased there to deny this great footballer a chance to play just because he belonged to a media house in Dubai that didn't cover your football event?

(Ph: +91-832-2452805 to 10) Online Media Partner: http://www.GOANET.org Utt Goenkara has expressed deep concern and anger over the total breakdown in the law and order situation in Goa and has demanded that the recruitment, promotion and transfer of police personnel should be free from any political interference. Utt Goenkara has stated that a lawless Minister like Mr. Vishwajeet Rane and a criminal minded police officer like Old Goa Police Inspector Mr. Vishwesh Karpe were bad role models. Vishwajeet Rane was a fit case to be sacked from the Goa cabinet and Mr. Vishwesh Karpe deserves nothing less than compulsory retirement. Ridiculing Goas governments expectation that religious institutions and shops should engage private security, Utt Goenkara has stated that very soon every Goas Aam Aadmi would have to fend for themselves with help of private security. Utt Goenkara has questioned as to whether the police would be left only to provide illegal and unprecedented security cover to politicians and their nefarious henchmen. Police officers that cannot uphold the law due to personal or political compulsions should be compulsorily retired and allowed to be employees of politicians of their choice. On 26th September 2007 in a notice sent to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, it has demanded immediate disciplinary action against Mr. Vishwesh Karpe, the Police Inspector of Old Goa Police Station, for grave dereliction of duty in grossly delaying registering of the F.I.R in connection with the threat issued by Health Minister of Goa Mr. Vishwajeet Rane. When a copy of the notice was sent to the Old Goa Police Station on 26th September, Police Inspector Mr. Vishwesh Karpe refused to accept the notice and verbally abused the messenger Mr. Atanasio Menino DCruz who was delivering the notice. Police Inspector Karpe told Mr. DCruz that for being after Mr. Vishwajeet Rane that he (police Inspector Karpe) would teach Utt Goenkara activists a lesson and finish them off. Inspector Mr. Vishwesh Karpe by threatening to finish social activists off had committed an offence punishable under section 506 (II) of the Indian Penal Code. The conduct of Police Inspector Vishwesh Karpe was unbecoming of an officer in charge of a police station and contrary to Chief Minister Digambar Kamats assurance that the Goa Police will be sensitive to Public complaints and deal with the Aam Aadmi in a very courteous and caring manner. Goa's DGP has been told that if there was any attack on social activists or on their families and properties, the said Police Inspector Mr. Vishwesh Karpe along with Health Minister Mr. Vishwajeet Rane should be treated as prime suspects in view of the threats issued by them. On the Dayanand Social Security Scheme, Utt Goenkara has stated that the scheme which was launched six years ago on October 2nd 2001 was subject to political interference and administrative mismanagement and therefore in dire straits and in need of a total revamp. The scheme, which was meant to be Freedom from Hunger, had stopped processing applications received from April 2007 and Goa has run out of funds to make even the September payments to the existing beneficiaries. Demanding that the scheme should give an enhanced financial benefit to only the most vulnerable sections of society, Utt Goenkara has wondered as to how MLAs and MPs were allowed to certify the income, age and residence of the applicants, given that such information had to be certified by the local Mamlatdars on a report submitted by the Talathi of the area.

TRI Continental Film Festival - Dona Paula, Goa, Sep 28 - Oct 2, 2007 http://www.moviesgoa.org/tricontinental/tricon.htm For public viewing. Registration at The International Centre Goa. (Ph: +91-832-2452805 to 10) Online Media Partner: http://www.GOANET.org DUBAI The Indian national football team hope to ride on their recent Nehru Cup success when they launch their 2010 World Cup qualifiers, starting next month. The Indian team are in Dubai for a ten-day training exercise before flying to Lebanon for the first leg match in Beirut on October 8. The return leg is scheduled for October 28. As part of their training stint in Dubai, India will face Al Nasr at the Al Maktoum Stadium in Dubai on October 1, at 9.30pm. National team coach, Bob Houghton, speaking to Khaleej Times yesterday, said: Winning the Nehru Cup had boosted the confidence of the team. The players are more confident than before. Since last December, we have played 14 matches and lost only two. India stunned Syria, ranked 123 in the world by a solitary goal in the final of the the five-team tournament held in New Delhi last month. India are ranked 145 in the Fifa ranking. Houghton sees the first leg qualifier against Lebanon as another great test for the team. We have watched some videos of the Lebanese team and their style is similar to Syria. The Syrians, according to the head coach, beat Lebanon in June. On Indias chances, he said: It is going to be a difficult match. If you had asked me a year ago, I would have said no chance. But this time I am confident we can do something. A draw in Lebanon will be a great result for us. All the players, Houghton confides, are in superb mental shape except one or two players who have slight injuries. The boys are happy and looking ahead to the challenge ahead. The Englishman thanked Al Ahli Club for their kind gesture of giving them the grounds to train. Predip Chowdhary, manager of the team, said the players are in good shape and in fighting spirit. The team have been transformed and enjoying the success of the Nehru Cup. It is a great achievement for winning the title for the first time after thirteen attempts, he said. Against Lebanon, Chowdhary said it would be a tough match. But we hope to fight hard for a win, he added. The squad: Goalkeepers: Sandip Nandy, Subhashish Roy Choudhury, Subrata Paul. Defenders: Irungbam Surkumar Singh,Mahesh Gawli,Syed Rahim Nabi, Samir Naik Nanjangud Shivnanju Manju, Debabrata Roy Midfielders: Ajayan K Nair ,Climax Lawrence, N.P.Pradeep,Clifford Miranda ,Steven Benedict Dias Mehrajuddin Wadoo, P.Rennedy Singh, Bungo Thokchom Singh, Gouramangi Singh. Forwards: Bhaichung Bhutia (Captain), Sunil Chhetri, Abhishek Yadav, Manjit Singh, Tarif Ahmed. The officials accompanying the team are: Predip Chowdhary (team manager), Antonio Pacheco (goalkeeper coach), Colm Toal Joseph (technical director) Tapan Bhattacharya (physiotherapist), Suresh Babu (physical trainer), Dr Arya (doctor) Prithi Kumar (masseur).

(Ph: +91-832-2452805 to 10) Online Media Partner: http://www.GOANET.org DUBAI Jonathan DSouza came in the second half and struck three goals to help CAC Cansaulim to a crushing a 5-0 victory over Nuvem Al Seer in their Group D match of the 4th All Goa inter-village football tournament at the Iranian Club stadium yesterday. Remedios Rodrigues Remedios Furtado were the scorer of the other two goals. It was Nuvem Al Seers third successive defeat having lost to St. Anthony Siolim and St. Anthonys Pernem 2-0, 3-0 respectively. Cansaulim took the early initiative forcing the first corner of the match in the first minute. Nuven keeper Hermito was in fine form to divert a shot for Cansaulims second corner of the match in the 4th minute. Simon Andrade missed an easy chance after Renfert Philip had failed to clear a pass. But the most glaring miss of the day was by Remedios Rodrigues in the 10th minute after beating a defender and Hermito. With an open goal, Rodrigues went wide on the right as he struggled to control the ball hitting into the side netting. Hermito came to his sides rescue a few minutes later as he tipped Cruz Dias free-kick over the bar. Remedios Rodrigues, however, opened the scoring for Cansaulim when he finished off a move by Remedios Furtado from just five metres. But Rodrigues was booked by the referee for his wild celebrations and for removing his shirt. Jonathan DSouza, who was named man of the match, struck three goals in succession for a 4-0 lead before Furtado sealed the scores with the fifth. Bonnie of Nuvem (who is also in the orgainzing committee) got the second yellow card marching orders for abusing the referee. The spectators booed Bonnie for his behavior on the field. what a shame! for orgainzing committee.

(Ph: +91-832-2452805 to 10) Online Media Partner: http://www.GOANET.org DUBAI Godfrey Rebello scored a goal and created another as St. Anthonys Pernem Asemco crushed Nuvem Al Seer 3-0 in their Group D match of the 4th All Goa inter-village football tournament for the Pehla Cup at the Iranian Club stadium yesterday. Peter Carvalho opened the scoring for St. Anthonys Pernem Asemco after 14 minutes in the first-half. Rebello, who was voted man of the match, created the second goal for Renato Fernandes to raise the tally 2-0, ten minutes on resumption. Rebello sealed the scores with the third goal five minutes later. St. Anthonys Pernem piled on the early pressure for Rebello to miss the target with a shot from the right. Shoan DSouza gave a lot of support with a series of fine runs down the right. One such effort and a cross in the 14th minute beat the Nuvem keeper Hermito for Peter Carvalho to knock into the empty net for the opener. Carvalho had another chance a few minutes later after a pass picked him clear but Hermito managed to smother his effort. St. Anthonys Pernem kept the same pace after the break forcing Hermito off his line at one stage for a save. St. Anthonys Pernem went on to force two corner kicks in succession but the defence weathered the storm. Nuvem Al Seer, however, made one major break through Julius Noronha from the centre but a quick reaction from St. Anthonys Pernems keeper Uze Rodrigues saved the situation. St. Anthonys Pernem, however, doubled the scores in the 10th minute of the session when Renato Fernandes knocked in from close range. Rebello then sealed the tally with the third following a goalmouth scramble. Siolim United, meanwhile, recovered from a goal down to beat SFX Old Goa 3-1. Constance Nunes put SFX Old Goal ahead in the 15th minute.

CAC Cansaulim were in virtual command of the match but found the well-organised defence of their opponents hard to beat. Raias keeper, Manuel George, was the hero as he produced a string of saves, especially in the second-half, to earn his side a valuable point. He was later voted man of the match. In the second match of the day, Dino Dias and Noel Fernandes were on target to give Vanxim Divar a 2-0 victory against ABC Benaulim. Russel Rodrigues of Vanxim Divar was named man of the match. Cansaulims early pressure could have earned them one or two goals through Remedios Rodrigues and C. Dias but both woefully failed to apply the finishing touch. Raias keeper Manuel George produced a fine save in the last minutes of the first session to deny Jonathan DSouza. Cansaulim continued to hold the edge as they pressed for the opener after the break. Luis Fernandes once volleyed over the bar from just ten metres while Remedios hit the crossbar midway of the session. But Georges brilliant saves kept Raia in the match.

Though Siolim defended for the most part of the match, Sylvester Fernandes and Manuel Fernandes had few chances to have put their side in front. Siolims Roland Coutino was declared man of the match.

Jose Fernandes, however, stabbed in the equaliser four minutes later to grab a point for AVC Moses Eleven. The first-half was fairly balanced with both sides missing some scoring opportunities. Avinash of Anjuna hit the bar after a fine work from the centre. AVC Moses Elevens Vane Dias also went close but his weak shot was cleared by a defender. In the third match of the day, Paul Fernandes and Joe Coelho struck in each half to give St. Anthony Siolim a 2-0 victory over Nuven Al Seer in their Group D match.

Strength lies in unity � Watch �Mhaka Tumchi Ghoroz Na�
http://www.GOANET.org This month's Goanet operations sponsored by Mrs. Daisy Faleiro http://www.navhindtimes.com/articles.php?Story_ID=012233 By J P Pereira -NAVHIND TIMES. Inacio de Canacona, after the acclaimed Hi Porza (in which a Priest solves a murder mystery), now presents a family melodrama of jealousy and misunderstandings where love finally triumphs in Maka Tumchi Ghoroz Na. There is this family of Gaspar, his wife Rosita, sons Steve and Cliff and Steves wife Assumta. The family is close-knit and God-fearing. Steve, a military man, receives a telegram to report at the border, as the impending war has begun. Steve leaves that very day, leaving his one-day old wife, in the care of his parents and younger brother. Sooraj a no good loafer, who wanted to possess Assumta, tries to woo her in the absence of her husband with the help of his alcoholic father, Faria. The two are unsuccessful and so they hatch a plot to destroy Assumtas happiness. Meanwhile, Steve is reported missing on the warfront. Sooraj uses Faria to poison the minds of Gaspar and Rosita, with false tales of Assumta. Soon the much-loved daughter-in-law becomes a victim of the plot that is going to destroy her. Cliff, who has joined the police force returns home to find his once upon happy household in a turmoil. What happens later is to be watched out in this drama, which emphasises that a united family cannot be destroyed by external forces. The play moves at a fine pace, with some good dialogues and songs during the acts. The cast comprising mostly of new faces, perform quite well. Fatima as Rosita and Bushka as Assumta, one a veteran and the other a budding talent, give fine performances in their respective roles. Gabriel Mascarenhas as Gaspar acts well, but should curtail the excessive movement of his hands. Nevil as Steve, Baptista as Cliff and Inacio as Sooraj act well and Peter as the drunk Faria is perfectly irritating! The humour is provided by Romaldo as Calor. He gets a lot of support from the other cast and raises some good laughs. Braz Rodrigues music is average and there are songs in between the acts by Inacio de Canacona and Putush de Panchwadi.

Re: [Goanet] The Three Kings Feast in Cansaulim - These Three Kings belong to any particular so-called Caste?

God bless them Borgeee == --- JOANITA FERNANDEZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Father Zeserin D'Souza, a priest at the Our Lady Remedious Chapel, Cansaulim talked of the universality of God. God is not God only of Catholics but the God of all the nations and of all the people irrespective of creed, caste and religion, he said. On 06th Jan the Cansaulim Feast was great and very impressive, attended by many Hindus as well, however, later in the day I learnt that these three persons who dresses-up like Kings on the horse-back always belong to a particular caste. Can any netter confirm the above statement? If this satement is correct then it appears that the majority of Catholic Cansaulimcars appear to be very backward encouraging to divide Catholic religious ceremonies based on caste system? Is this what Jesus thought them to practice in 21st century? What Fr Zeserin D'Souza, a priest at the Our Lady Remedious Chapel, Cansaulim gave a statement to the press is completly different to the above fact? It appears to be sermao sangta to, vonieng nuim When these type of people including Goan Catholic priests and Bishops will practice casteless Catholic religion in Goa? after their death? Have these Goan priests Bishops any social responsibilities in this 21st century? Or would it be better these Goan priests and Bishops who encourage and take part on caste based Catholic religious ceremonies should leave Catholicism and join Hinduism, the religion of their ancesters?

[Goanet] Situation in DUBAI - read and think
Truly Something to read and think about current situation in DUBAI! Ahlan Dubai... Welcome Dubai... With so many Indians hopping the next flight to Dubai (or U.A.E in general) to make their dreams happenlife would turn out to be a shocker here. The common problem for youth in India is that they want tomake too much money in too little a time. They are willing to leave India on the first offer from any country of repute (or even without repute) without considering the pros and cons. As for the millions of U.A.E aspirants in India ..guys hold on do a self assessment based on the under mentioned facts:- v Just don't multiply the AED salary by 13 and convert the same in to rupee earnings. That would be the first of the many mistakes are likely to make. The conversion if at all should be done for savings and not gross earnings. v If you a married person, consider the cost of family accommodation in U.A.E and more importantly in Dubai. The minimum requirement of a one BHK (bedroom, hall, kitchen) flat would cost you a minimum of AED 4,000/- per month (not per annum, guys) any where in downtown Dubai. Add a minimum of 10-15% annual increments in rent. Don't expect the salaries to rise by even half that %. v If you are smart enough to realize that you can look for apartments outside Dubai (Sharjah, Ajman , RAK) to save AED 1,000 - 1,500 per month in rent , please allow yourself three to fours hours for commutation every day(given the present traffic situation, which can only degrade with influx of millions of immigrants every year).Add that to a normal 10 hours day would mean you would end up spending around 14-15 hours a day on job..and you thought family life would be so much fun in Dubai. v Be prepared to shell out AED 100/- for a routine check up at doctors in UAE. If you are lucky you will not fall ill, but god forbid if you do, then you will have a big hole in your pocket. v If you aren't used to summers of north India and hail from places like Shimla, then you are in for a treat of your lifetime. Temperatures can run up to 50 degrees on a normal sunny afternoon and such days are pretty regular. And did I mention the humidity levels of 95% I am sure I did. v If you don't have children you are lucky..bcos if you a 2-3 children going to school..add at least AED 12,000 (per annum per child) to the cost of living in U.A.E v You thought petrol here is cheaper and so would be the taxies...try taking a cab from airport to your hotel the meter would touch AED 75-100/- before you will be able to make yourself comfortable in the Camry. v You might have the fanciest of all cars available here, but when it comes to parking the same, you might regret buying one. Imagine roaming around the streets of Dubai for 1 hour just to find a parking space...alas.even that's not free.don't forget to display your parking ticket ...else a fine awaits you. v Last but not the least of all woes is a triple call rate to your loved ones in India. INR 30 per minute from U.A.E to India.whereas as INR 8 per minute from India to UAE .it must give you an idea what awaits you in Dubai. Don't you dare think you can use skype in Dubai .guys its banned and its illegaleven sites like Orkut are banned here...so much so for the communication. v So if you are fascinated by the growing number of glam malls in Dubai .the ever-changing skyline all the hype and glory that surrounds this place ...the bollywood stars flocking to Dubai every Thursday night .the cute cars the chic cafés BURJ DUBAIBURJ AL ARAB ..Dubai Marina; think twice buddies !! (Remember what you take home after a lifetime in Dubai are the clothes on your back and the fils jinging in your pocket ). No matter how long you stay here you will still be an expatriate ..no UAE passport .no home. Trust me, there's nothing like home!!! ___ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
