Pakistan has the sense to have two different teams for ODI and Test cricket. There are some core players but in the main, PK team knows the difference between the T20 needs and the long haul of test cricket. I wish England knew that difference.

I have never found a decent recipe for naan bread - the huge ones. ANy really good recipes from you guys?

Good riddance to bad rubbish North Caucasus has had its share of terrorist attacks and taking out the terrorists seems a good move for Russia, and everyone else for that matter.

With the way England are playing at the moment, Pakistan has nothing to worry about from us!

Very interesting indeed. The important bits of the spacecraft, like the engines, are Russian, even if the rocket has the American flag on the outside!

Possibly one of the most informative and preceptive cartoons to emerge from the Charlie Hebdo tragedy. By sharing this, we all learn. We learn each other's perspective and most of all, we learn that there are many, many others who have died so that we in the "west" and I mean specifically UK...

Barmaley A fascinating series of photographs. The rear door one is particularly interesting. Some honeycomb structures are visible beneath the steel outer skin. Possibly ceramic? I suspect that the rounds used were a mix of heavy rounds, DU, and HE. Possibly some shaped charges but the...

The Angara is a little different from the old Russian launch rocket. It has a single engine for each of the external modules and one for the central core. This is in essence simpler if the engines are reliable. By now I would imagine that the engines are well tested.

Now that is one beast of a vehicle.

Let no man pull you so low as to hate him. Martin Luther King.

Thank you third eye. I am going to steal that pic and distribute it wisely!

Fair estimate. India V Pakistan will be the crucial match of the competition.

Pakistan have a reasonable team. Not the best but with Boom boom Afridi and Misbah-ul-haq there are two batsmen who can hit the ball hard and far. Yahis Shah is one to watch. Misbah-ul-haq is not a bad captain, he knows his way around a limited overs match as much as anyone. Its going to...

This is an outstandingly informative thread. My compliments to all who have shared their thoughts. My view is that God is unknowable, and those who respect God try to make sense of it as they can. I have the utmost respect for Islam, Christianity and Hinduism simply because I am not wise...

UK is very definitely on the side of the Russians, the UK has harboured many of its "businessmen" for many years and that is not going to stop because its money. Lots of money flowing through London, and especially in time of economic crisis, the Russians need a safe banking system to process...

Russia wont have anything to do with North Korea. Not many countries will, although China will hold North Korea on a tight leash, like a domestic dog which has become insane. As to Russia and Ukraine, if you draw a line from Crimea north east to the Russian border then the majority of the...

I just finished reading KP - Kevin Pietersen's biography. Partly fact, as I can imagine Matt Prior being a bully, but part fiction too. He comes over as a self-serving a@@hole. He defends going into the IPL with a passion. He doesnt need to. The IPL is exciting and a great example of how...

T14 appears to be far more advanced than a T90 upgrade. It will be interesting to lurk around Moscow on May 9 to get some views of the T14.
