ABV should have become PM 20 years earlier than 1998, but better late than never. He was a statesman and not a politician. I recall ABV having good relations with Raj Mata Scindia in Gwalior and he appealed to nationalist Congress party veterans like Madho Rao Scindia and Rajesh Pilot. He put India ...

DEL-MAA and DEL-BLR are sure shot candidates for the 777/350 type wide bodies in the near future. Demand, slot constraints, and the distance will demand it, even though the 787s will be cheaper to operate. That's the problem isn't it. No 777s or A350s are on order by any Indian airline. They seem t...

Trump is amazing! Lol He is looking Wall Street right in the eyes and kicking us in the teeth. The Fortune 500 is going to have its profit projections halved in a few years when they are walled off from the China market.

CNN, MSNBC, FOX and WaPo are biased in one direction. You can’t tell if they’re lying or not, it isn’t just about domestic news either. Lots of crap about India and international news. The NYT is a little better, but NPR has covered the news better.

DEL is already on par with the monstrous Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) in passenger traffic, and will catch up with two other biggies - Chicago O'Hare (ORD) and Los Angeles LAX by 2020-21 probably. In terms of style yes, DEL and BOM are way better than any US hub. We transited BOM (international as well ...

Passenger traffic is only part of the picture. It would be interesting to see what the total number of operations there are at these airports. That is the number of arrivals and departures. It would also be if interest to see how much cargo by tonne is handled.

it's other way, per capita income should rise faster than the cost of electricity to make it more affordable for masses. Exactly. If our per-capita income is 1/4th of China (example) it does not imply that we should or could provide electricity at 1/4th of its cost in China. That is simply not poss...

From the WN view point: There’s absolutely nothing wrong with Trump trying to make peace with Russia. It’s clear that no matter what might have occurred, Trump was going to be swamped with waves of shrill invective from the Deep State Swamp hydra. It’s important that our president maintains his focu...

mort - can you throw some light on your comment that the remaining 5-7% will vote for DT? There are about half-dozen swing states in the Electoral College. In these swing states, about 5-7% of voters can swing either way to make the difference because they really wait to see who they like less. Kee...

Putin will visit before the elections in November. If anything DT was and is an east coast racist. Russia is a white nationalist country where other races do not go for studies, business or migration. Gone is the USSR. DT needs Putin to give a message to his base.

The New Yorker magazine is now also lacking credibility by publishing a disparaging picture on its cover. The media in the US is over reacting and was already primed to hammer DT even before his Europe trip. The net result will be pushing the 5-7% of the electorate in the center to vote for DT come ...

The Daily Kook has no credibility and falls into the fake news category. Much like Breitbart and NewsMax on the right.

AmberGji,

A single neutrino at 290 TeV or several? So correlated with gamma rays consistent to TXS 0506+056?

Also. Multi wavelength observations are detection with different sensors at specific EM frequencies when neutrino interacts with other atoms when passing through?

It is all accounted for. Maybe at at one time not any more. Things are a lot more efficient now. There is a reason demand growth is crawling even as the population is much more prosperous than 20 years ago. There is also a lot of low hanging fruit in terms of efficiency and losses to draw on.

Unlikely. BRF was created over 20 years ago due to the dearth of information regarding the Indian military. Today there's a lot more information out there and people are better connected.
