In the 19th century, British colonists faced several challenges in India, [...] [including] malaria. [...] The imperialists needed an answer to the problem and they found it in quinine. [...] [T]he British promptly embraced quinine, consuming tonnes of it every year by the mid-1800s. [...] Quinine was so bitter that soldiers and officials began mixing the powder with soda and sugar, unwittingly giving birth to “tonic water”. [...] [I]t prompted Winston Churchill to once proclaim, “The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen’s lives, and minds, than all the doctors in the Empire.” [...] If by some good fortune malaria did not claim them, plague, cholera, dysentery, enteric fever, hepatitis or the unforgiving sun could. Preserving and protecting the body was [...] crucial to the success of the colonial project. As historian EM Collingham aptly summarised in her study, “The British experience of India was intensely physical.”
One way the colonists tried to deal with this challenge was through food and drinks. “The association between food and the maintenance of health was a concern of Anglo-Indian doctors, dieticians and the British authorities throughout the duration of colonial rule [...],” writes Sam Goodman in Unpalatable Truths: Food and Drink as Medicine in Colonial British India. [...]
---
The Medical Gazette, for instance, recommended treating dysentery with a “low diet” comprising thin chicken soup [...]. Botanist-physician George Watt too extolled the virtues of sago. In A Dictionary of the Economic Products of India (1893), he wrote that sago is “easily digestible and wholly destitute of irritating properties” and in demand [...]. For fever, weakness and sundry ailments, beef tea [...] was considered an ideal remedy. And for cholera, The Seamen’s New Medical Guide (1842) prescribed brandy during the worst of the sickness and half a tumbler of mulled wine with toasted bread and castor oil [...]. Ship masters and pantrymen would stock their vessels with foods with known medicinal benefits such as sago, arrowroot, lime juice, desiccated milk and condensed milk (the iconic Anglo Swiss Condensed Milk tins, later known as Milkmaid, enjoyed a permanent spot on British ships).
---
Businessmen too recognised the precarity of life abroad and realised that therein lay a perfect commercial opportunity. By the 19th century, numerous companies had cropped up across Europe, including in England, that would sell food in hermetically sealed tin containers.
One of these was Messrs Brand & Co. Recommended highly in Culinary Jottings for Madras by Colonel Robert Kenney-Herbert, Messrs Brand & Co had several offerings [...]: essence of beef, concentrated beef tea, beef tea jelly, meat lozenges, [...] potted meat, York and game pie, and A1 sauce [...]. Another company, John Moir & Sons, focused mostly on canned soups [...], selling oxtail, turtle, giblet and hare.
---
By the late 19th century such was the popularity of canned foods that rare would be the pantry in a colonial home that didn’t store them along with medical provisions like opium, quinine, chlorodyne and Fowler’s solution (an arsenic compound). [...] As Flora Steele and Grace Gardiner wrote in The Complete Indian Housekeeper and Cook, “A good mistress will remember the breadwinner requires blood-forming nourishment, and the children whose constitutions are being built up day by day, sickly or healthy, according to the food given them; and bear in mind the fact that in India, especially, half the comfort of life depends on clean, wholesome, digestible food.”
To assist the British woman in this ostensible duty, there were a number of cookbooks and housekeeping manuals [...]. The Englishwoman in India, for instance, published in 1864 under the pseudonym A Lady Resident, had a whole section with recipes for “infants and invalids”. These included carrot pap cooked into a congee with arrowroot [...] and toast water (well-toasted bread soaked in water). Steele and Gardiner too had a few recipe recommendations [...], including champagne jelly (“most useful in excessive vomiting”) and the dangerous-sounding Cannibal Broth (beef essence), which they said should be consumed with cream [...] to treat extreme debility and typhoid. [...]
---
One dish born of this encounter was the pish pash. The pish pash is considered an invention of the colonial cook, who adapted the kedgeree – the colonial cousin of khichdi – into a light nursery food. The famous Hobson-Jobson defined it as “a slop of rice soup with small pieces of meat” [...]. None other than Warren Hastings, the first governor-general of Bengal, gave confirmation of its efficacy when in 1784 he wrote to his wife from the sick bed [...]. There are enough records to show that the imperialists counted marh (starch water from cooked rice) and bael (wood apple) sherbet among their go-to remedies and benefited from the medicinal qualities of chiretta water and ajwain-infused water.

Mr. No. 01 : All About George South And My Personal Experience With Him
Hey Everyone! I wanted to write this special article for a legend whom I’ve met multiple times! The legend is , ‘ Mr. No. 1 ’ , George South . I wanted to write this because today is his birthday!
George South has been wrestling since 1984. He made his in ring debut the day after Christmas, which was December 26, 1984 at Championship Wrestling from Florida ( CWF). He was in a tag team with his partner being Mike Allen. They took on the team of Pretty Young Things , which consisted of WWE Hall Of Famer Koko B. Ware and Norvell Austin. However , South and Allen lost the match. South’s next wrestling appearance was in Bill Watts’ Mid- South Wrestling. Mid-South Wrestling was rebranded into the Universal Wrestling Federation ( UWF ) in 1986. South was in a tag team with Rocky King in a match against Kamala in a Two-On-One match in 1985. The same year , South found his way to Jim Crockett Promotions and made his debut on the Inaugural episode of World Championship Wrestling ( later to be known as WCW Saturday Night ) on April 6,1985.
On the episode of WCW, George South would team with Greg Stone to face the team of Ivan Koloff and Krusher Khruschev. A week after making his debut, he would face Magnum TA , the most popular wrestler in JCP. This was his first singles match, Magnum would defeat him. Thus , he would have his very first match against the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, ‘ The Nature Boy ’ Ric Flair , on June 1,1985. This match would be a non-title match , which meant that Flair wouldn’t have to defend his championship. Flair would go on to say that South was his favorite Enhancement Talent to work with and praised him for being a Great Worker. On September 14,1985 , South would earn his first victory against Mack Jeffers. He would also work for Georgia Championship Wrestling and would also become the NWA Junior Georgia Heavyweight Champion in 1986 as he continued to work for JCP. He would also appear in Central States Wrestling out of the Midwest. Central States Wrestling was an affiliate of the NWA in the Heart of America/ Central States Territory. His appearances there would be in the Fall of 1986. He would have matches against talents such as Colt Steel and Mark Fleming. South would form a tag team with Gary Royal upon his return to Mid Atlantic Wrestling. They would be known as the Gladiators , Cruel Connection, and the Mexican Twin Devils. They would be masked and would be an Enhancement Tag Team. South would continue to wrestle for JCP.
In August of 1988, George South would debut for the World Wrestling Federation ( WWF). He did so as he continued working for JCP. He was used as an Enhancement Talent in a match for the Honky Tonk Man for ‘ WWF Wrestling Challenge’. He would also wrestle against The Blue Blazer on the same show on August 24, 1988. This match would mark Owen Hart’s first TV match for the WWF. He would have matched against talent such as The Ultimate Warrior, The Rockers ( Marty Janetty and Shawn Michaels) , Jake ‘ The Snake ’ Roberts, Sam Houston, and many other popular WWF wrestlers . His final appearance for the company would be in 1990. Thus , he would also appear in WCW once more. He would have matched against The Great Muta and other talent such as Johnny B. Badd ( Marc Mero). George South would find his way back to the WWF in 1993 at a taping against Tatanka. Thus ,a year later, he would face Tatanka on the January 17,1994 episode of Monday Night RAW. In February, he would face Doink The Clown. In April , he would go against Lex Luger. He made his final WWF appearance in 1996 , being in a match against Jake Roberts on ‘ Superstars ’.
George South would join the PWF ( Pro Wrestling Federation) in 1991 as he was continuing to work in WCW. He would become the PWF Junior Heavyweight Champion in the Summer of the same year. He also reconnected with Gary Royal and Cruel Connection was reformed. South was crowned the PWF World Heavyweight Champion in 1995 after defeating Star Ryder. He also made an appearance in Jim Cornette’s Smoky Mountain Wrestling. In 1999, South would open his own wrestling promotion, Exodus Wrestling Alliance. He is a born again Christian and says one of his greatest accomplishments is giving Hulk Hogan a tract to help him with his faith. He often gives these out to fans at any show he is booked at. South also works with legends such as Nikita Koloff at Christian based wrestling shows. As a Heel , South says that he doesn’t use profanity, or become vulgar in order for fans to boo him. He also uses his style of wrestling to salute the wrestlers of the past such as Blackjack Mulligan.
George South is also affiliated with AML Wrestling. He made his NWA return in 2019 in a dark match against Colby Corino. This was before the taping of the December 15,2019 episode of ‘ NWA Powerrr ’. He also trains new wrestlers at Rings Wrestling Training Facility. South has trained wrestlers such as Tessa Blanchard , the daughter of Tully Blanchard and the stepdaughter of Magnum TA.
My Personal Experience With George:
George South is one of the nicest people I have ever met. I first met him back in 2022. I’ve also learned a few things about the business from him, and I’m not even an in ring talent. I got to work his merch stand at a show one night and it was an honor to do so. I even got to watch him perform in the ring and it was excellent! I have to say , he’s a great Heel and an even better person. He’s also pretty fun to watch in a deathmatch. So, happy birthday, George! Love ya! - Kay

Kräht der Hahn auf dem Mist…
... ändert sich das Wetter oder es bleibt, wie es ist.  | 14.03.23
Eben noch im Frühstücksfernsehen die Wetterkarte genau besehen, an der Küste strahlender Sonnenschein. Aufziehen der Vorhänge, tiefes Grau. Na, mal sehen, denke ich und mache mich wie gestern zur Konditionsgymnastik Herzpatient fertig. Schicke Jogginghose, die ich geschenkt bekam zum letzten Geburtstag, T-Shirt, Sweatshirt, Joggingjacke. Überlege noch kurz, ob Mütze… Handy sagt 10 Grad, also nein und gehe hinunter. 7:30 Uhr soll es losgehen. Therapeutin kommt, jeder nimmt sich einen Stock, wir messen Puls, 72, prima und los …
5 Schritte mit dem Stock ohne Anweisung. Platzregen! So dermaßen, dass wir uns ins Haus retten. Morgengymnastik fällt wie gestern aus. Hallo? Universum? Eine halbe Stunde später lichteres Grau, kein Regen mehr. Also kein Damm, keine Hunde, die uns begrüßen .. Frühstück.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Und apropos Hahn … das neue Frühstück im Kreis dieser Testosteron-Spitzmäuse finde ich sehr merkwürdig. Ich spüre, dass ich in meinem gesamten Leben immer besser mit dem weiblichen Geschlecht konnte … also sozialen Umgang, nicht etwas, was man jetzt missverstehen könnte. Frauen haben einfach seltener Profilneurosen und müssen sich seltener mit eigens erworbenen Tricks in den Vordergrund schieben. Die Frauen, die das handhaben, sind natürlich auch besonders unangenehm, weil oft besonders hinterhältig und falsch.
Bei den Frühstücksherren wurde wieder über halbnächtliches Jogging, Yoga am Strand, Schlafen mit weit aufgerissenem Fenster die ganze Nacht sich gegenseitig etwas vorgeprahlt… uff. Gut, dass da noch mein netter Norddeutscher Kurschattenjäger war.
Die nette Dame vom Nachbartisch auch weg. Mir fiel in diesem Zusammenhang auf, dass die hier im Speisesaal nach Geschlechtern die Tische besetzen. Zu blöde!! Ich würde lieber in einer netten Damenrunde, einem Damenkränzchen sitzen und davon erzählen, dass ich eine schöne Ballettdoku gesehen hatte und ein neues Buch lese über das Schreiben, was mir unheimlich gut gefällt. Das Buch? Eine Empfehlung von einer sehr engagierten Schreibkollegin, Claudia Grothus: George Saunders „Bei Regen in einem Teich schwimmen“ … sehr unterhaltsam und lehrreich! Gefällt mir traumhaft gut.
Ganz nebenbei erwähnt, die Schulung von gestern „Reduktionskost“ hat gefruchtet, habe viel weniger Frühstück gegriffen heute.
Tumblr media
Zurück zu den Hähnen, äh, nein Spitzmäusen, na, zu den sportlichen jungen Herren, die ja hier sind wegen Krebs- oder Herz-Kreislaufleiden. Einer, der mit am Tisch sitzt und sich auch sehr sportlich gibt, wir nennen ihn mal wegen seiner roten Trainingsjacke mit bezeichnendem Emblem: „Hansa Rostock“, war danach mit beim Ergometer Training und ist gerade von 35 auf 40 Watt hochgestuft worden… also das ist gar nichts, Schonstufe sozusagen. Warum geben die Herren sich am Tisch so agil und sportlich? Nun gut, besser als depressive Jammerlappen, ja?
Mein Freund Usman, aus einer streng hierarchischen Kultur stammend, meinte mal, mir hätte in meiner Sozialprägung eine männliche Bezugsperson gefehlt, darum sei ich so, wie ich bin. Darüber habe ich nachgedacht. Ich wuchs in einem Frauenhaushalt auf, meine Eltern ließen sich kurz vor meiner ersten Einschulung scheiden.
Meine Mutter war sehr streng und dominant, meine Schwestern beide jünger als ich. Ich versuchte sehr zu meinem Vater Kontakt zu halten. Suchte ihn zu freien Zeiten in den umliegenden mir bekannten Stammkneipen auf, wo ich beim Betreten von den stinkenden Männern lauthals als „Prinz“ oder „Zarter“ begrüßt wurde. Ich überwand meine Scheu, um meine männliche Bezugsperson zu treffen. Hat alles wenig geholfen. Bis heute habe ich immer mehr gute Freundinnen als Freunde, obwohl es die auch gibt. Hallo liebe männliche Freunde, ich mag euch natürlich sehr! Und ich wurde Frauenrechtler.
Nach dem Ergometertraining holte ich mein heutiges Langzeit-EKG-Gerät ab und plauderte kurz mit der netten Schwester. Dann aufs Zimmer. Später noch Walking, es sei denn es regnet. Obwohl die Sonne gerade versucht durchzubrechen. Also toi toi toi…

Going Nowhere
Movie night in the cellar was fun.
The Cellar was dark except for strands of green, purple and orange Christmas lights, strung across the ceiling, with some decorative low-watt bulbs with large copper coils inside.
There were a large number of ratty chairs, loveseats and recliners arranged in rows for the comfort of a seated audience, and a large wall, painted white, instead of a screen.
Al was wearing part of a Werewolf costume, he'd taken the mask off and forgotten it on a chair, because consuming the livid green punch with lumps of dry ice floating in it was much more important.
He gestured with his still clawed, furry werewolf hands, however, whenever he greeted a new arrival.
Derrik had a flawless Dr. Frankenfurter costume, right down to the wig.
Kayleigh had a plastic viking helmet and a little plastic axe, but had worn her work overalls and not much else to show as far as a costume.
Seth had on a white shirt that said "It's not Racist when I do it." and cheap, Pharoah's headdress, and mummy wrappings for everything but the T-Shirt.
Luke had worn a slutty little black and red ensemble to compliment his red plastic devil horns on his headband, fake tail and feathered wings.
Ray felt overdressed. He was the proud owner of a full stop high quality Tolkien elf cosplay costume. He'd even done the ears today, and carried his replica sword with him to the cellar.
He received many hoots of approval from the ornery and slightly tipsy inhabitants of the cellar, and was warmly received by a few he'd not met yet.
One was an immense punk goth from Ghana. George introduced himself with few words and a noticeable accent. He had everything going on that Blade had aspired to, but not quite managed, and his own clearly goth edge. He was Kayleigh's gym friend, and lived in the unit next to her. He was also over seven feet tall, and had to move about in the cellar with his left hand beside his temple to keep from hitting the lights or the rafters. The tattered black jean vest he was wearing had to weigh twenty pounds from all the spikes and safety pins in it.
"Good to meet you, Ray. Kayleigh told me that you were like a hot elf Guy, but I was not expecting it to be true."
Ray laughed, as Kayleigh hit George in the ribs.
Damian, who was undoubtedly the youngest person in the room grinned at both of them. He was wearing a Tae Kwon Do Gi, and had a green belt.
He introduced himself to Ray, and mentioned that he lived in the apartment next door.
"Oh, nice to meet you. Surprising that I haven't run into you in the hallway yet then."
"I'm usually out the door by 05:10 every day, and I work after school, so not really home all that much. I'm studying Zoology, and it's my freshman year, so I am really still trying to get into the swing of college." He made a solemn face. "It's really eating into my video game time..." and then he smiled at his own joke.
Ray smiled with him. "I'm doing Biology with a Botany focus, but Zo-o is fascinating too. I almost went with Micro or Myco."
Al started the video and the chatter quieted somewhat.
Mystery Science Theater 3000 rules were clearly in effect during the film. Much good natured heckling took place. There were a few water pistols that saw use in the next hour, and popcorn was thrown at members of the audience with the worst puns.
A good time was had by all.
Ray was very glad he'd attended.

100 wonderful quotes
Tumblr media
100 wonderful quotes 100 wonderful quotes and aphorisms by famous and great authors and writers to help improving your ideas and thoughts, to inspire and motivate your behavior. Why is every silence sacred? Because the word, except in exceptional moments, is a profanation. Emil Cioran Everyone gets the experience. Some get the lesson. T. S. Eliot Awareness of ignorance is the beginning of wisdom. Socrates We are all like the bright moon, we still have our darker side. Khalil Gibran I have a theory that the moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself. Henry Miller The high-minded man must care more for the truth than for what people think. Aristotle If you cannot do great things , do small things in a great way. Napoleon Hill Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy. Isaac Newton Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder. Rumi Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other. Carl G. Jung The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. Confucius Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. Anais Nin Truth can never be reached by just listening to the voice of an authority. Francis Bacon The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately. Seneca Nothing is more deceitful than the appearance of humility. Jane Austen The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury. Marcus Aurelius Nothing is miserable unless you think it so; and on the other hand, nothing brings happiness unless you are content with it. Boethius Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it. Mark Twain It's frightful that people who are so ignorant should have so much influence. George Orwell I can't believe what you say, because I see what you do. James Baldwin Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart. Haruki Murakami If you don’t know, ask. You will be a fool for the moment, but a wise man for the rest of your life. Seneca Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it. Albert Einstein Bees don’t waste their time explaining to flies that honey is better than shit! Anonymous Who questions much shall learn much and retain much. Francis Bacon You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget. Cormac McCarthy This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn, and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief. Rumi It is no advantage to be near the light if the eyes are closed. Saint Augustine If my eyes could show my soul, everyone would cry when they saw me smile. Kurt cobain There is no person so severely punished, as those who subject themselves to the whip of their own remorse. Seneca Use your pain, don't let your pain use you. Motivational quote Life begins on the other side of despair. Jean-Paul Sartre Our memory is a more perfect world than the universe: it gives back life to those who no longer exist. Guy de Maupassant Nothing makes a man so adventurous as an empty pocket. Victor Hugo The worst part about being lied to is knowing you werent worth the truth. Jean-Paul Sartre Love begins with song and music and ends in a sea of tears. Italian Proverb Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant. William Arthur Ward It is the duty of every man, as far as his ability extends, to detect and expose delusion and error. Thomas Paine Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness. Bertrand Russell The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less. Socrates There will always be suffering. But we must not suffer over the suffering. Alan Watts A high degree of intellect tends to make a man unsocial. Arthur Schopenhauer In a word, I was too cowardly to do what I knew to be right, as I had been too cowardly to avoid doing what I knew to be wrong. Charles Dickens All human beings have three lives: public, private, and secret. Gabriel García Márquez Learn what is to be taken seriously and laugh at the rest. Hermann Hesse The aim of argument, or of discussion, should not be victory, but progress. Joseph Joubert Don't ever judge anyone on how they handle a pain you've never felt. Anonymous It's far better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone, so far. Marilyn Monroe Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt. William Shakespeare Concern should drive us into action and not into a depression. No man is free who cannot control himself. Pythagoras It’s time you realized that you have something in you more powerful and miraculous than the things that affect you and make you dance like a puppet. Marcus Aurelius Good decisions come from experience, but experience comes from making bad decisions. Mark Twain Sometimes a question can hurt more than an answer. Sarah Dessen Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school. Albert Einstein The man who makes everything that leads to happiness depends upon himself, and not upon other men, has adopted the very best plan for living happily. Plato I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires, rather than in attempting to satisfy them. John Stuart Mill I would rather excel in the knowledge of what is excellent, than in the extent my power and possessions. Plutarch Artificial intelligence will be Man's most important conquest. Too bad it could be the last. Stephen Hawking Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead. Benjamin Franklin, If you don't have ideas, read. If you have ideas, but can't articulate them, write. If you have ideas, and have the clarity to execute, build. Dan Koe Knowledge is no guarantee of good behavior, but ignorance is a virtual guarantee of bad behavior. Martha C. Nussbaum. The word - instrument of the elevation and fall of man. Man should have the freedom to open his mouth only from time to time. And the primary function of society should be the extermination of chatterboxes. Emil Cioran Some people will never like you because your spirit irritates their demons. Denzel Washington When everything is easy one quickly gets stupid. Maxim Gorky Time takes it all, whether you want it to or not. Stephen King The price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men. Plato It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong. Voltaire There are more copies than original among people. Pablo Picasso Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win. Stephen King When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It's only painful & difficult for others. The same applies when you are stupid. Philippe Geluck Women are meant to be loved, not to be understood. Oscar Wilde The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not. Seneca I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying. Charlie Chaplin The man who fears death will never do anything worthy of a man who is alive. Seneca Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth. William Faulkner Education, the path from cocky ignorance to miserable uncertainty. Mark Twain Never throw mud: you can miss the target, but your hands will remain dirty. Dorothy Parker No one is more hated than he who spoke the truth. Plato The more man meditates upon good thoughts, the better will be his world and the world at large. Confucius To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour. William Blake I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library. Jorge Luis Borges Privilege is invisible to those that have it. Anonymous An optimist may see a light where there is none, but why must the pessimist always run to blow it out? Rene Descartes When all else fails, give up and go to the library. Stephen King The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding. Leonardo da Vinci Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society. Aristotle Children must be taught how to think, not what to think. Margaret Mead It is unrealistc to expect people to see you as you see yourself. Epictetus Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary. Oscar Wilde It is not enough to have a good mind; the main thing is to use it well. Rene Descartes Great man is hard on himself; Small man is hard on others. Confucius True friends stab you in the front. Oscar Wilde It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. Epictetus Much learning does not teach understanding. Heraclitus Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence. Leonardo da Vinci An investment in knowledge pay the best interest. Benjamin Franklin The highest activity a human being can attain is learning for understanding because to understand is to be free. Baruch Spinoza The left wing and the right wing belong to the same bird. Native American saying While you can't control someone's negative behavior, you can control how long you participate in it.
