@Confutata : HuffPo blogger proposes homeopathy to solve Gulf oil leak. Yes, really...
In fairness, they're not talking about solving the Gulf oil leak with homeopathy. They're talking about making a remedy from the crap being pumped into the water (by the blowout and from BPs attempts to clean it up) and making a remedy from it to treat the wildlife. Because that just makes so much fraking sense.

'Virginity test' helps free 3 in Vietnam rape case: HANOI, Vietnam — An acupuncturist who claims she can detect a man's virginity based on a small dot on the ear has become a minor celebrity in Vietnam, where she is credited with helping to free three convicted rapists from prison. Traditional medicine practitioner Pham Thi Hong started lobbying for the men's release, pleading their case all the way to the president, because she believes all three men are virgins and therefore could not be guilty of rape. "They all had small red spots on the back of their ears," said Hong, 54. "The spots should have disappeared if they had had sex. My many years of experience told me that these men did not have sex before." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38051788
Noticeably, they were not released because they were determined to be virgins, but because of flaws in the initial investigation.
