The people with black money will never again use the rupee as a storage medium. They will convert it into gold or US dollars or euros or <insert fungible thing>. It might lead to a "dollarization" of the black economy. It seems to me, in my opinion, that all this is Modi and the BJP posturing before their base. They are "doing something".

Bound in human skin, not flesh.

Maybe it's nitpicking but the shibboleth was used to differentiate between members of different tribes of the same people involved in what amounted to a civil war. It is useless for distinguishing between speakers of different languages.

Brilliant move. If China can get the US to oppose the greenhouse gas limits it also wants eliminated ... Presupposes a knee-jerk reaction from the administration. Hmmm.

None, secession is illegal.

Very true. However, flat, forested islands can reflect a greenish color onto whatever clouds might be above them.

Or the movie "The Final Cut" with Robin Williams.

Suppose that the paper is correct. We could even go farther than it does by assuming twice as much time before warming becomes 'dangerous' and that it is (or becomes) sufficiently a commonly held knowledge or belief. Is it dangerous in the short term? Yes. States and state-like actors will begin preparing for the projected shifts in climate, water availability, etc. They will shift alliances, exert influence in new places, perhaps abandon old allies. Even countries that are projected to be spared will need to take steps if they have neighbors who will not be. And they will start as soon as possible. When states all shuffle the cards, it is always dangerous.

The star that supposedly disrupted the cloud would have to be in the neighborhood but it isn't according to current data. But it might be in which case it would be very dim. That's why more data is needed.

"inobjective"?

The word you want is 'subjective'.

There is no reason two or more observers can't share a synchronized clock so long as it is outside their respective frames of reference. Example, a far away, mutually observable pulsar.
