Tim McInnes: A Canadian Neo-classical composer with American Ragtime passions

August 22, 2023 by thebengali

I don’t quite remember the first time I heard Scott Joplin’s ‘The Entertainer’. It was probably around the age of 15 or 16. But I do remember that it felt natural, as if I had always known the musical style. When I first heard the tune – and for at least half a decade thereafter – I did not know that it was a genre called ‘Ragtime’. By the age of 10, I had a fair understanding of the term […]

Team Selection: Pujara, Rahane, Kohli … the answer may lie in a different set of numbers

July 3, 2023 by thebengali

Today I realise I would have dropped Cheteshwar Pujara too. There is an explanation why Ajinkya Rahane is vice captain. There is also a logical reason why the coach and team management keep picking Jadeja over Ashwin. This may be a complete waste of time but let me start at the beginning. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) recently announced the test squad for the West Indies tour. This was just after the terrible loss of the […]

Conscious Deliberate Differentiation is the ability to make a non-choice or make a choice that is not the outcome of an analysis or make a choice that is not the apparent right choice knowing that it is not the right choice. It is Conscious Deliberate Differentiation that gives us plurality.

Red Snapper and Shark

June 12, 2022 by thebengali

Fresh red snapper is a good option for a quick side with steamed rice. Especially if you have a Shark stirfry with a hint of gravy on the other burner as a main course. The recipe for tonight was quiet simple: mustard oil, snapper fillets, sprinkle herbs, salt and chilly flakes, close and cook for ten minutes. Open lid, turn and cook for five more minutes. The shark stir fry is simpler. Mustard oil, garlic, chilly, shark meat chunks, salt, […]
