    Shaheen III | News & Discussions.

    A different diameter requires redesign, and a small change requires enough reengineering to make your missile a new missile. Serial staging would only work if the lower stages have enough juice to carry several more tonnes on their heads. It often does, but then you ask yourself the question...

    Should I go for PhD?

    If you did your Master's degree just for the taxes, you're off my list of potential PhD students. And your ambivalence isn't helping either.

    NA body approves Electronic Crime Bill

    So all political parties colluded on selling us citizens' fundamental liberties. Do they even realize before agreeing on point 1 that unsolicited email is often the ice-breaker in collaborations in the field of academic research?

    (Video) New restaurant staffed with deaf waiters

    We stumbled upon one of these caféterias in Karachi where all the staff was audibly challenged. Had an better-than-average experience, particularly because those guys were less egotistical, at least that's what I gathered from the no-frowns manner they replaced that part of the order my...
