#Reuters 📆 August 7, 2023 #Roscosmos 🇷🇺 said that its #Luna25 #spacecraft would take five days to fly to the #moon and then spend five to seven days in lunar #orbit before descending on one of three possible landing sites near the pole - a timetable that implies it could match or narrowly beat its #Indian 🇮🇳 rival to the moon's 🌙 surface. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-evacuate-village-first-lunar-lander-mission-half-century-2023-08-07/

A bit more #Indian #cooking on a slightly cooler weekend day - also to prep ahead for the week, makes for a mighty fine #lunch of simple (basmati) pulao with peas and shahi jeera (black/mountain cumin), chola daal, sauteed cabbage (w blk mustard seeds and curry leaves), lamb with spinach, and grated carrot raita

#Indian #Government made up an #index of #measurement of #poverty based on "#feels", and based on this "feels" index they claim "feeling" of poverty reduced by 10%. Big victory for feels. Not so great outcome for actual rise in income.

My experience of white liberals as a brown Marxist can be summed up in two lines:

"He ain't a crook son
He just a shook one."

Never fucking trust them. Backstabbers, collaborators and snitches.

Grounding, centering mostly #Kerala style #Lunch at home today - all partner's cooking. Leftover Kaalan and sauteed vegetables - and then some terrific Red #Fish #Curry (with branzino) Cooked yesterday so the flavors have seeped and 'pickled' especially the sour of the kodampuli (dried garcinia gummi-gata). Had the curry with last bit of some kaachi-moar (cooked/scalded turmeric and spiced yogurt)
#Food Cooking #Indian

Bit of rice over which there is a bright yellow sauce with cooled sliced onions and curry leaves (kaachi moar), and next to it a small fish steak that is red brown from the sauce it is in - a bit of shredded cabbage is behind these

This is yet another in a series of bizarre economic self-goals by the #Indian government in recent times. Really gives the sinking feeling that we have a bunch of illiterates or crazies frantically twiddling switches and turning dials without understanding the implications of their policy decisions.

Indian musician and vocal coach, Mr. AV Peace, employs a really creative method in his teaching. He draws out these intricate maps to help visualize notes and sounds. They’re quite mesmerizing.

You can watch more of “the one who draws music on paper” on his Instagram:

Notepad with colorful lines and patterns representing the sound of the singer’s voice, including stops for the words. He uses a pen to follow along the chart while singing.

Every time I attend the Father's Day Powow at the old Stewart Indian School in Carson City, Nevada, I always walk over to the graveyard and pay my respects to this amazing lady. Seriously, search: 'Dat So La Lee basket' and admire her work!

Aaah! Sorely missing #Family - my sister today. She was slated to come to the US in 2020 for #Odissi performances and I missed that. Yes, I did catch up with her in India just this past Dec, but not the same. If it's one regret I have it's that I never got to watch much of her work/artistry. In what little I have seen live and in pics, the emoting and grace always get me. A couple of pics recentish (2017 I think) and an old one from her FB

Aaaaaah! So my sister did come stay with us in Pittsburgh for a couple of weeks (mostly spent practicing or her zoom classes or work with India over zoom/whatsapp) before heading out to work in Dallas and DC. I knew we wouldn't be able to make her DC show in September but geez now I learn where it is!!
