It is always sad to see people defiantly maintain the falsehoods that they
propagated in the first place, even after being shown evidence that they are
wrong. What is worse in the present case with Noronha is that he is stealthily
moving the goal post by slipping in a new claim while making a fa

developed some minimal sense and discontinued (at least overtly) the
practice of asking for money and more money. Everyone understands that

OK FN, I'm correcting you. War memorials are put up in countries to honour
Nascy is not wrong, considering the social mores of the time he is talking
about. Social advancement is a process that is coaxial to progress around.
In a manner of saying, for instance, my family has a long ways to go but
that does not mean they are not advanced socially in certain ways.

This piece will give people a sense of high intrigue and manipulation, and
its not just the Catholic Bishops, but other horrendous parties in play
here. And so it goes, with the power they have to dictate and alter peoples

I was given to understand that there were "differences of opinion" between the
so-called freedom fighters and the Fundacao Oriente, which had commenced works
on putting mosaic paving in the Portuguese style, which caused the works to
come to a dead-halt. Is this correct or is it a myth?

BICHOLIM, NOV 10
A 40-year-old man from Ona-Maulinguem, Bicholim, committed suicide by
hanging himself to a fan at his residence on Tuesday.
According to Bicholim police, one Santosh Kudnekar from New Wada,
Ona-Maulinguem, who was upset due to some personal reasons, hanged himself
One of the Goans who joined the British Army and saw action in Germany (as a
commando IIRC) was Alfredo de Mello, the son of Dr. Froillano de Mello, and the
author of "From Goa to Patagonia".
A number of Goans also were involved in Angola as members of the "tropa", but
that is another story.

Correct me
Simply Awesome for the Spaniards to recognize Mario Miranda and his
contribution to his culture and that of India. Hopefully India will
recognize that this means that a part of the world is watching one cradle of
India and that is Goa very closely, and hopefully take this as a sign to
clean up its

I was in a hurry last night when I wrote the post. I want to add that the site

Dear FN,
I don't believe that Portuguese or Brazilians would be in the Indian Army as
they would not be eligible to join. Some could be Mangaloreans but then
Mangaloreans are originally Goans who left Goa a long time back to escape
Portuguese rule.
