The Thing About This Is...

I never did get into Strictly Come Dancing when it was launched a few years back - but now I am a totally devoted fan (of two years). I like ballroom, although this isn't strictly ballroom but it has enough ballroom in it to keep me happy. I thought I'd share two of my favourite dances (I have many). I'm very partial to the Latin dances it seems... Here's Mark Ramprakrash, the Cricketer and Matt DiAngelo, the Eastender. The Argentine Tango The Paso Doble

This is hilarious and completely geniusesque!! Sadly, this may mostly appeal to mathematicians but even if you don't get the mathness of it, it is still a great tune! :) Enjoy! Update: After having listened to it quite a few times I have to say I find it rather romantic. Yes, romantic... Finite Simple Group (of Order Two) by The Klein Four Group The path of love is never smooth But mine's continuous for you You're the upper bound in the chains of my heart You're my Axiom of Choice, you know it's true But lately our relation's not so well-defined And I just can't function without you I'll prove my proposition and I'm sure you'll find We're a finite simple group of order two I'm losing my identity I'm getting tensor every day And without loss of generality I will assume that you feel the same way Since every time I see you, you just quotient out The faithful image that I map into But when we're...

This is my vain attempt in covering the politics of Bangladesh. I don't even have time for this blog never mind another. But, now that I have set it up it may give me the incentive to do something on it. I just need to figure out how to extend the days by a few hours; Bernad's watch would come in handy... 'Shomaj' means society in Bengali, 'Tomaj' is just a word that rhymes with 'Shomaj' to give it some emphasis, something that we do a lot in the Bengali (and other Southasian) language(s). This could also mean 'Society and etc.' which is what this blog is largely about, because politics isn't just restricted to the happenings of the parliament but society at large, our every action/thought is a political act. As Aristotle says, we are all political animals by definition... Do check it out, not much on it at the moment, but hopefully soon!

He's finished the deed, used all the food analogies (one could think of) and is now promoting it on the web space... I enjoyed most parts of the blog (story/journey), although there were times when I thought "{raised eyebrow motion} hmm...? " Some things didn't sit well with me (and some were not funny ), but all in all it did make me laugh. The food linkages were hilarious and very clever I thought. Here's a quote: "The cakes of the West are symbols of their hatred. The croissant is an Islamophobic crescent, referring to the Crusades. And the Victoria sponge is named after a Queen who ruled the British Empire which helped destroy the Caliphate! Even the Rich Tea biscuit is a veiled insult, a symbol of the rich exploiting the poor tea-pickers of the subcontinent." The final post, 'The End: Let this learn us all' was published today along with two other penultimate ones. The series is in 15 parts and it makes a good light hearted read, if a...
