It simply proves that God is right-handed.

You don't get it. This is not a scientific achievement, but an engineering one.
It cost a few cents per Indian - I think they can afford that. Congratulations India!
As a tweeter asks..when was the last time we saw women scientists celebrating a space mission?
India does have female scientist and engineers, but the women in that photo are not them.
It would be like a photo of NASA engineers wearing hoodies.
Ubuntu doesn't even install finger client by default!
But OS-X still has it, oddly.
Chloride? Fortunately not everywhere. In western Europe most countries use hydrogen peroxide, because afterward you can still drink the water and don't need expensive water in bottles.
No, chlorine, not -ide. Widely used for municipal water supplies. Not sure what you are talking about.
Not so simple.
Botswana has ten times the income, 85% literacy, and decent medical facilities, but just about the highest HIV rate in Africa.
People are still struggling to prove various explanations. Epidemeology is really hard.
Rampant corruption and poverty is only part of the problem.
Botswana is widely considered the least corrupt country in Africa, and the most prosperous sub-Saharan country.
But they have been completely unable to control the AIDS epidemic, with up to a quarter of the country infected.
Botswana has gone from having one of the highest sub-Saharan life expectancies to one of the lowest.
Unhealthy habits can be very hard to change, even in a relatively prosperous and well-governed country.
Given the sad history of AIDS in Africa, it is hard to be optimistic about ebola control.
Can't tell if that was a parody, or serious. Either way, a great example of the bizarre twisted logic that zealots employ.
We always expect new models to improve on previous ones, both from the same company and competitors.
Apple users are such whiners. If 16GB is not enough, just insert a TF card.
The whole point is that Apple won't include it unless it has a worthwhile use. Other companies play spec wars where there is no practical use of a technology for users. Apple doesn't.
Too right. Before Apple added support for copy-and-paste, MMS, multi-tasking, high-res or bluetooth, they were just useless gimmicks on other platforms.
Furthermore, one of their stated goals is that they want to destroy the US.
You have that backwards. The US wants to destroy ISIS. Even if some ISIS spokesman was accurately translated as aiming to destroy the US, how could anyone possibly take it seriously? Similar absurd claims were made about Al Qaeda, when bin Laden just wanted Americans out of Saudi Arabia, and the middle east generally.
Just planning or speaking about heinous crimes is enough to get you nickes, again, as it should be.
No it will not. One person planning a crime, even bragging about it, is not conspiracy. It could just be a fantasy. Lots of people imagine ways of killing someone, but never do it. The crime is conspiracy, which means more than one person planning it together. To charge one person acting alone, he would have to have gone beyond planning, e.g. purchasing bomb ingredients.
I wouldn't refer to Asperger's simplistically as a "problem".
By definition, it kind of is. Asperger's is a diagnosis, and requires "clinically significant impairment in functioning".
Without that, you are just a bit nerdy.
I for one welcome our new overlords from the United Kingdom of Little Britain and Northern Ireland.
"Great Britain" refers to the largest of the British Isles, and "Little Britain" was Ireland in Roman times.
Their cores remain small — about 12.5 miles across
Looks like a vague "20km" gained a couple of orders of magnitude in precision (2 extra significant figures).
This is bad journalism even when its not science.
"Mr Smith was reported as saying 'You look like 772,000 Euros!'"
Happiness is a hard disk.
