The Navy has allowed the wives of five Navy personnel who died in accidents aboard two submarines to apply for becoming officers in the maritime force. The wife of the late Commander Kuntal Wadhwa, who lost his life in an accident onboard the under-construction warship INS Kolkata in Mumbai...

No idea. I have a Bioshock season pass from my previous purchase but I haven't gotten around to downloading it. :sick:

Exactly!!! :P I think it is a retroactive figure, including people who were previously diagnosed with any STD as well, and not a current one.

Use the "Return to Sender" vigor to protect the deck. It's pretty simple after that. Have you played Burial at Sea-Episode 1/2 yet?

Unfortunate incident. I hope the bereaved families find solace and support from the Indian Army.

Yawn. She has been prophesying(AKA wishing for it to come true) this event for years. Now that the timeline doesn't fit, she has adjusted her tune to "contracts sab pehle se sign ho gaye, bas Modi ki der thi." :P The only thing in her narrative that has actually occurred is an increase in...

Shame. I hope the homeowner has insurance. Oh well, the Indian consulate was untouched. The terrorists have been put to sleep. A positive outcome from all angles!!!:coffee:

Has it been proven that these refugees are indeed Afghans? Going through the trouble of getting a different passport for illegal immigration sounds counterproductive. It's not like Pakistan has no refugees of her own, is it?

You are entitled to your perceptions and "what people believe" statements but don't go about being a liberal bleeding heart about it and add Indians to the mix!!!:P While we certainly don't know what caused this geezer to flip out and discipline his wife, how can we go about blaming any "shared...

So? I could also post a history of domestic violence prevalent in any nation. What good does clubbing all of them together or to label it as culture do? The defense certainly points it out: They don't dismiss it as a prevalent South Asian or even an Eastern phenomenon, regardless of the...

Honestly speaking, I did miss reading many posts because I was posting on multiple threads. That said, I really don't think that the point behind such organizations is to barge into and stop Pakistani weddings. Sure, scrutinizing is important but it shouldn't lead to throwing the baby out with...

Why should I? We are discussing a legal case here. If there ever was a legal precedent for such an occurrence, it can be considered as relevant. Asking random white people for their opinions would be counterproductive.

Our culture? I'm yet to hear an Indian pleading cultural differences for reduced charges. Perhaps you could bring up some examples to further your point.

For sake of supposition, let's say you're completely right about that. That said, prostitution happens to be just one rough estimate. Why overlook the rest? Why overlook the entire issue of forced conversions just because you find an element of the report ridiculous? The statement you're...

Probably. The webpage doesn't list any affiliations but it's funny to have a Pakistani member claim US missionaries will not stand for it. Erm...are you asking me or was that supposed to be a general question? I guess that's the rough estimate of what happens to the Christian "bride" as per...

Made me laugh as well. But it's understandable, the defense is obligated to try everything to save his neck.

The Movement for Solidarity and Peace sounds like a Christian missionary(probably western funded) organization. I don't think any American group is going to mind it one bit. From their webpage: Movement for Solidarity and Peace in Pakistan Issues Global Appeal to End Forced Marriages &...

Perhaps you're interpreting the terminology of black holes literally? Maybe considering black holes as an "event horizon" or "gravitational singularity" would further aid your understanding about them.

Call me a troll if you see so, then. Why label all Indians? You aren't posting nearly enough pictures to be considered neutral!!!:P Either way, like Citizen HttpError says, we need to get back on topic.

As far as I understand it(I'm no astrophysicist by a long shot ), a black hole expands its mass(or grows, going by layman's terms) through "consuming" anything pulled by its gravitational field or by colliding with other black holes. Ergo, a black hole strips could theoretically strip away mass...
