From the BBC:

A couple accused of adultery are reported to have been stoned to death in northern Pakistan by the Taleban.

The pair ran away together but after being hunted down they were brought before a Taleban court in the Mohmand tribal district.

A Taleban spokesman said the couple had confessed and were then sentenced to be put to death by stoning.

Although local officials say the pair were actually shot dead, people in the area confirm the Taleban account.

The execution was carried out in one of the tribal districts close to the Afghan border.

Many of those who like to fill up their day by denying that boosting the quantity of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is causing dangerous climate change often like to point to the sun as the reason we're experiencing global warming.

A new study tosses cold water on that idea.
