Just like everything else the pakis claim they invented (remember their gyrocopter and "first south Asian" air plane "inventions"?) but bought their kits off the shelf. By the way, there's even a price list in that link above.

QUETTA - At least seven people were killed and over 40 others wounded in separate incidents of bomb blasts, landmine explosions and armed attacks in various towns of Balochistan on Thursday. Four dead bodies too were recovered from Khuzdar and Panjgour districts.
At least five people including police and security personnel were killed and 23 others including women and children wounded in a powerful bomb blast in Quetta.
Police said unidentified people had fitted explosives with a motorbike and parked it at Sirki Road. The bomb exploded as a vehicle of Frontier Corps (FC) approached near. Three security personnel, a policeman and a scavenger were killed on the spot.
Most of the injured were passersby. Police and personnel of Frontier Corps rushed to the site after the blast and cordoned off the area. The rescue workers shifted dead and injured to Civil Hospital Quetta. Later the seriously injured were shifted to CMH for further treatment. The condition of three injured is said to be serious. And so on and so forth......

Pakis are really hilarious bunch. But I am puzzled, why did they not change their name to "Babur the satellite" or something cubesat is a giveaway...

A Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) pilot was jailed for nine months in Britain on Friday for being drunk before he was due to fly a plane with 156 people on board.

Irfan Faiz, 55, was asked to leave the cockpit during checks for the flight from Leeds Bradford airport to Islamabad on September 18 because he smelled of alcohol and was unsteady on his feet.

The father-of-two was found to have three times the legal amount of alcohol in his blood, prosecutors told the court in Leeds in northern England.

His behavior would have been permitted in Pakistan, where the rules state only that there should be 12 hours between “bottle and throttle” no matter how much the pilot had drunk, the court was told.{WHAAAAT????}

Judge Peter Coulson described this rule as “extraordinary” and said he was also “astonished” to hear that pilots regularly flying out of Britain did not know about the far stricter regulations there.{WTF}

I am sure there will be many PHDs and Nishan-e-Paki coming out of this soon.

As a Pakistani I am proud of this. Pakistan's space programme is far ahead of India. Even though indian space research organisation has 16000 staff they have the capacity to launch only 2000 kilos satellite. Our 3 member staff could build a 1kg satellite. It's a big achievement.

Questioning the sincerity of US towards Pakistan, Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said America doesn’t want peace in the country.

Nisar made this statement while speaking to media outside the parliament after Friday prayers. He was responding to the recent drone strike in Hangu.

“How can we consider US as our friend after this drone strike,” Nisar questioned, adding that he fails to understand why Sartaj Aziz believed in US assurances.

Adviser to the Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs Aziz had recently said that America has assured Pakistan that drone strikes will not be carried out during talks with the Taliban

Blaming US involvement in the country for all the chaos, the interior minister said it is time Pakistan decides between “honour and US dollars.”

He added that American financial aid has not brought any positive change in the country.

I urge everyone interested in Pakistan to read this and understand how the Ahmedis were ex-communicated. Good work by Nadeem Paracha.

The League at the time was a mixture of modernist Muslims, secular democrats, pro-Jinnah ulema and even Marxists.

In fact, the League’s manifesto for the 1946 election was largely authored by socialists and Marxists, whereas much of the campaigning was done by the pro-League Islamic lobbies.

ha ha ha, this is hilarious. given a choice between "honour" & "dollars", pakis would obviously take dollars. Because they never had any honour.

The "correct" name would have been Pakistan Institute of Space Sciences (PISS)

If Iran does go nuclear, Saudi Arabia may not be far behind. It has options. Riyadh underwrote Pakistan's atomic-bomb program and keeps the country's economy afloat with its largess. The "arrangement with Pakistan is too strong" to dismiss an almost overnight nuclearization of the Arab peninsula with their help, Mr. Alwaleed suggests. Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who returned to power in June, lived in Saudi exile after a 1999 military coup. "Nawaz Sharif, specifically, is very much Saudi Arabia's man in Pakistan," Mr. Alwaleed says.

A Dnepr rocket launching from Yasny in Russia has set a record for the most payloads carried to orbit in a single mission.

The converted intercontinental missile released 32 objects in space - mostly small, so called "cubesats".

The main payload was a 300kg Earth imaging platform for the United Arab Emirates known as DubaiSat-2.

Weighing in at just 97g was an 8cm-long temperature sensor, due to be separated later from a Peruvian cubesat.

The Pocket-PUCP sensor is thought to be the smallest functional satellite ever put above the Earth.

The Dnepr launch occurred at 07:10 GMT.

It comes just a day after a US Minotaur 1 rocket put 29 satellites in orbit - again, mostly cubesats.

These diminutive spacecraft have become extremely popular with university groups in recent years.

Their simplicity and low cost means makes it possible for students to work on real space hardware.

British interest in Thursday's launch included Funcube-1. This 1kg box carries a transponder that will transmit signals that can be picked up by schoolchildren using a simple USB dongle receiver and small aerial.

The intention of the project, developed by Amsat-UK, is to get youngsters interested in radio, space, physics and electronics.

Although Funcube-1 is a British payload, the difficulties of obtaining space licensing under UK legislation means it is flying with a Dutch flag.

Amsat supporters had gathered on Thursday at the National Radio Centre at Bletchley Park to follow the launch. Telemetry confirming the health of Funcube-1 was picked up shortly after separation from the Dnepr.

Other UK interest centred on the Cinema 2 & 3 cubesats (also known as KHUSat 1 & 2). The pair are a collaboration between the University of California at Berkeley, South Korea's Kyung Hee University and Imperial College London and will study near-Earth environment and its interaction with the Sun.

Imperial's contribution is a mini-magnetometer called Magic to record conditions in the magnetosphere - the bubble of magnetic field lines that envelops the planet and deflects much of the matter thrown in our direction by the Sun.

One Cinema cubesat was launched in September last year.
