SCHOOL SOCCER – KUWAIT.
JABRIYA MEETS ENGLISH SCHOOL FAHAHEEL IN FINAL.
In the first semifinal at Sour Ground on Friday 19th of this month at 8.30
A.M. Jabriya Indian School defeated Indian Central School by 3-0. From the
beginning itself Jabriya started playing very aggressively in which their
forwards especially Kevin on the right flank with bustling moves created lot
of openings for his colleagues but due to poor marksmanship by the center
forwards they failed to forge ahead. However, in the 15th minute of first
half, receiving a pass from his colleague on the right flank, Kevin dribbled
past two defenders and nicely fed his colleague Mahmoud Nasir in the box and
Nasir without wasting a single moment hit a powerful shot into the far left
corner of the net. Earlier Munif missed a nice sitter when his right footer
went over the bar. In the second half ICS mounted heavy pressure on the
citadel of Jabriya but with firm custodian under their bar and reliable
defenders Jabriya thwarted all the clever moves initiated by ICS. In the
20th minute of this half Jabriya again mounted pressure on ICS and succeeded
in increasing the tally to 2-0 thru Munif with a fine goal scored from left
flank. The third and final goal was scored five minutes before the final
whistle by Nasir again. This match was refereed by Eric Almeida who was
assisted on the lines by Pillay and Alvaro. Before the start of the match
the chief co-coordinator of the tournament Mr. Fidelis Fernandes introduced
well known Indian philanthropist and great sports lover Mr. Mathews the
Chairman of the JIS along with Inacio Faleiro ex president of KIFF and Mr.
Amaldo the president of Curtorcares United to both the teams.
The second match between Indian Community School - Kheitan and Gulf Indian
School was just a drab affair in which ICS easily won the encounter by
scoring 4 goals without reply. With this victory ICS qualified to compete
for the third place play-off before the final at the same venue. The
scorers for this match were Naveen Kumar, Nighaut Kumar, Agai Jacob and
Amaldo Fernandes. This match was refereed by Joe and he was assisted on the
lines by Tony and Viegas. Before the start of this match again Fidelis
Fernandes introduced Mr. Cajetan Pereira The President of United Friends
Circle and Mr. Thomas The Principal of New Indian School to both the
participating teams.
The final of this match will be played on Friday at 4.00 p.m. between The
English School Fahaheel and Jabriya Indian School. Before the final at 3.00
p.m. Carmel School will play against Indian Community School for the third
spot.
As an added attraction on the same day and at the same venue before the
beginning of both the matches and also during the intervals some athletics
items will be conducted namely 100 metres dash, Shot Put and Tug of War
which is going to be between GOA XI led by Justinho and REST OF INDIA XI led
by Lawry Pinto. The prize distribution for the winners and runners-up and
also for Basket-Ball tournament will be done immediately after the grand
finale thru the hands of some of the distinguished guests and dignitaries
including Mr. Sodhi the Councelor-Indian Embassy and Mr. Adeeb Shuaibher who
will be attending this sports festival at Sour Ground. These activities are
organized to mark the Silver Jubilee of the establishment of United Goans
Centre.

That's a good one, Sunila! I remember the Americans
trying to patent neem and basmati rice.

Subject: [Goanet] Ancestral Home Remedies
Hi Goans Everywhere
Her are a few more ancestral home remedies:
1. Kokam or Binda -- a small pharmacoepia --
The skin dried and salted -- (bindi che sola) -- good
anti-allergen
The fat from the seeds -- bindel -- very good to soften skin --
if you could get enough cosmetic manufacturers would love to
use it as the base for lipstick
The pulp of the ripe fruit -- made into a syrup -- Amrut
okam -- good to bring down blood pressure
2. Pumpkin seeds (yellow variety) -- dried and pounded with gur and copra
and formed into ladus -- very good to get rid of worms of all
types -- Goans who eat pork roast (from Goan pigs) with the centre portion
a lovely pink colour could get tape worms, which work themselves
into the brain eventually
3. Nashni or Ragi -- specially the dark red variety we get in Goa --
very rich in iron and easily digested -- ideal for
building up strength after an illness -- with gur as TISAN -- or
with salt as AIMIL -- you could add grated fresh coconut,
raisins, etc to make it interesting for kids -- sprouted nashni, dried and
powdered, is even more nutritional
4. Caju feni -- with hot water, lime and sugar -- ideal for colds and
coughs
5. Aloe Vera -- that spiked lily-like plant found in most Goan
ompounds -- good for blind boils, whitlows and the jelly like
stuff inside I am told also for spreading over burns
6. Leaves of the "four o-clock flower " -- good for putting on a blind
boil with castor oil -- brings the boil to a head
drawing out all the pus
7. Fibrous, juicy internal stem of the banana plant -- the juice extracted
from this dissolves stones in kidneys, bladder, etc -- should be
tazken for at least fifteen days -- a small glass each morning
8. Drumsticks, leaves and flowers are supposed to be good for a hundred
and one ailments -- dried drumsticks are very
good for filtering out toxic contents of water
9. Hot water with salt and haldi powder -- even better than only hot salt
water -- for clearing up blocked nasal passages and relieving
a sore throat
10. Warm salt water (water should have been previously boiled and
ooled -- not raw Bombay municipal water) -- poured through one
nostril and allowed toflow out of the other -- clears out all the
accumulated pollution and also clears nasal passages blocked
with cold mucus -- good specifically for people having sinusitis
11. Dishti che panna (I do not know the English equivalent) but could show
the plant to you if my cousins have not destroyed it at our
Nachinola house -- ground with vinegar and FENI and applied to any
sprained or swollen joint -- reduces the swelling almost
instantaneously
12. If you are visiting and forgot to carry a toot-brush -- take a
mango leaf -- pull out the centre stem -- roll eachhalf and rub
you teeth with this roll
13. If you want to sham -- try putting a raw onion in your arm-pit and
sit in the sun for a while -- I have not tried this but at SMHS,
Mount |Abu this was said to be effective -- you get a high fever
14. Marlon was lucky -- he sucked cod liver oil capsules -- I had to
take cod liver oil straight from the bottle -- but it did give me
resistance to colds and coughs at SMHS, Mount Abu -- now doctors
prescribe fish oil for reducing
cholesterol -- I have a permanently high cholesterol lever
(triglycerides of the level of 700 and above)
If I remember any more I shall add them to this list -- but all you Goans
everywhere please think and put down your own memories -- maybe someone
will accumulate all of them -- and we can make a fortune selling these
remedies when the world's scientists reach the acme of the antibiotic and
the germs continue to build resistance to these antibiotics -- we started
with penicillin, then tetrcyclines, then chloramphenicol, them omnicycline,
now nopflox, each more powerful than the last -- eventually we have
reached a stage where we are taking a huge mallet to kill an ant and end up
bashing our own toes
Cheers

Hi Wild Goans!
Southern Birdwing will conduct another "Wild Goa"
natural history field trip to the Cumbarjua mangroves
by boat on 28 April, Sunday. This is the penultimate trip by boat.
Our recent sojourn to the cumbarjua produced excellent sightings
of Peregrine Falcon, Osprey, Brahminy Kite, Blackheaded Ibis,
Woolynecked Stork, Night heron, Green Heron, Slatybreasted rail,
Whitebellied sea-eagle, Blue-tailed bee-eater,
and varoius species of kingfisher like the storkbilled kingfisher,
blackcapped kingfisher, lesser pied kingfisher
and even the rare collared kingfisher !
A few crocodiles and the common jackal were also spotted .
As part of a serious committment towards nature conservation,
this trip will also include the planting of mangrove saplings
along the banks to conserve the declining mangrove cover.
The trip will commence at 7 30 am from the fuel pump
at the Cortalim ferry point and end at approximately 12 15 noon.
Participants will be charged Rs 125 per person.
Those interested in joining up can contact email us
at [EMAIL PROTECTED] to confirm their participation.
Only those who confirm their participation
by email or phone will be admitted, as there are limited seats.
