	<title>Pakistanis rally against suspected US strike</title>
	<description>
	
(PR-inside.com) ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) -  Pakistanis on Sunday protested  a suspected American missile strike that intelligence  officials said killed a British citizen linked to a plot to  blow up jetliners, saying their Western-allied government  must stop the cross-border attacks.
Pakistani intelligence officials said British citizen  Rashid Rauf died in Saturday's raid, but there was no  independent corroboration of the death.
His death would be a major blow to al-Qaida and Taliban  extremists believed sheltering in the lawless region. It  would also bolster U.S. claims that missile strikes on  extremist strongholds in northwestern Pakistan ..

(PR-inside.com) SRINAGAR, India (AP) -  Thousands of troops patrolled  streets and guarded polling stations as the second phase of  state elections in Indian-controlled Kashmir began Sunday.
The elections come after some of the largest protests  against Indian rule in Jammu-Kashmir, the country's only  Muslim-majority state, and a tough crackdown on separatist  leaders.
Nazir Ahmed, a local police officer, said voter turnout  was low on a chilly Sunday morning following calls for a  boycott by Muslim separatist leaders who oppose the polls,  saying they will only entrench New Delhi's hold on the  restive region.

	<description>
	
(PR-inside.com) OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -  The expansion Oklahoma City Thunder  fired coach P.J. Carlesimo on Saturday, losing patience  with his efforts to kickstart the NBA's new franchise after  a dismal start.

The firing followed a 105-80 loss to the New Orleans  Hornets on Friday, the Thunder's 10th straight defeat.
Brooks made his debut Saturday in a rematch with the  Hornets in New Orleans, and general manager Sam Presti said ..

The delegates ended their weeklong conference Saturday  saying they had decided against pushing independence for  now, and that they would maintain the Dalai Lama's «middle  way» _ his push for autonomy through measured compromise  that falls short of calling for independence.

	<description>
	
(PR-inside.com) MONTREAL (AP) -  Patrick Roy heard cheers again in  Montreal, more than a decade after his bitter divorce from  the Canadiens.
All the hard feelings were gone on Saturday, when the  storied NHL team retired the Hall of Fame goalie's famous  No. 33.
«Tonight, I am coming home,» Roy said to the raucous,  sold-out crowd at the Bell Centre, when his number was  raised to the ceiling before Montreal played Boston.
Roy won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP twice  with the Canadiens, both in years that Montreal captured  the Stanley Cup. ..

The National Fatwa Council's chairman, Abdul Shukor Husin,  said Saturday many Muslims fail to understand that yoga's  ultimate aim is to be one with a god of a different  religion _ an explanation disputed by many practitioners  who say yoga need not have a religious element.

The protesters, who call themselves the People's Alliance  for Democracy, planned a major rally to «finish off» the  government, and were expected to march Sunday to Parliament  in an attempt to block a session of lawmakers the following  day.

St. Elijah's Monastery, with its main fortress-like  structure looming atop a barren hillside, sits inside a  sprawling U.S. military base. Its bloody history makes  clear why the monastery needs protection. In 2003, it was  damaged during the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. Some 250  years earlier, it was nearly leveled by a Persian ruler who  ..

(PR-inside.com) MANILA, Philippines (AP) -  It is the last Tuesday of the  month, time for 88-year-old Dioscoro Valenzuela to lead a  group of fellow World War II veterans on their regular trip  to the clinic.
The free checkups and a monthly pension of 5,000 pesos  ($102) from the Philippine government are about all they  get for fighting alongside American forces from 1941 to  1945, when their country was a U.S. colony. And that  strikes them as unfair.

University of Calgary planetary scientist Alan Hildebrand  called it one of the largest meteors visible in the country  in the last decade.
Widely broadcast video images showed what appeared to be a  speeding fireball Thursday night over Saskatoon that became  larger and brighter before disappearing as it neared the  ground.

If confirmed, the death of Rashid Rauf would bolster U.S.  claims that missile strikes on extremist strongholds in  northwestern Pakistan are protecting the West against  another Sept. 11-style terrorist attack.
