Four pro-Taliban, anti-U.S. demonstrators who were blocking a railway line have been shot dead by police in Pakistan. The group blocked the railway line with rocks, preventing a train from leaving. They also took three policemen as hostages, but later released them.

The police first used tear gas against them, and when the protesters responded by throwing stones, they opened fire. At least six other people were injured. In another town, police fired teargas at a crowd of protesters and elsewhere they rounded up demonstrators who were trying to block a main road.

However, it was big enough to see in the dark night sky, and it truly frightened me.? He is certain that it wasn?t an airplane.

Scientists in South Korea have made a discovery that explains why homeopathic remedies work. It has to do with what happens when you dissolve a substance in water and then add more water. The discovery could provide the first scientific insight into how some homeopathic remedies work.

Homeopaths repeatedly dilute medications, believing that the higher the dilution, the more potent the remedy becomes. Some dilute to ?infinity? until no molecules of the remedy remain. They believe that water holds a memory, or ?imprint? of the active ingredient which is more potent than the ingredient itself.
