Wired News: The Christian Sex Machines Next Door
'I will require anyone ordering a machine from me to provide proof of marriage and a signed statement of intent to use only within that marriage.'
Interesting photos.

National Security Adviser was Woodward's source, attorneys say
As recently suspected, Hadley was first leaker of Plame name.
Hadley is also a suspect in the Niger forgeries.
Recently he has been a point man on misleading the country on the 'everyone knew that Iraq had WMDs' story.
Hadley was the fall guy for the uranium claim getting into Bush's State of the Union Speech. His excuse, "I forgot I was told not to include it."
It appears that Hadley is at the center of many of the lies I have been writing about for over three years.
Veterans Speak Out Against Torture: 'A Higher Law'
I personally witnessed prisoner abuse during the Vietnam War, and by witnessing and remaining silent became a participant....
If the McCain bill fails under the weight of pressure from the Bush administration, then we should end this nation's hypocrisy and remove the words "In God We Trust" from our currency and coins. The use of torture tells the world that our faith and goodness as a nation is but an empty can making meaningless noise.
Woodward apologizes for remaining silent, not for lying
Big Bush supporter has a strangely evolving story.
The abrupt revelation that Woodward has been sitting on information about the Plame controversy has reignited questions about his unique relationship with The Post while writing books with unparalleled access to high-level officials, and about why Woodward minimized the importance of the Fitzgerald probe in television and radio interviews while hiding his own involvement in the matter.Pincus was trying to get more information about that case and Woodward claims he told him but Pincus forgot!
Woodward said he had passed along a tip about Plame to Post reporter Walter Pincus, who was writing about Wilson in June 2003, but Pincus has said he does not recall any such conversation.
More - Woodward Was Told of Plame More Than Two Years Ago
ADDED - Pincus: Woodward 'Asked Me to Keep Him Out' of Plame Reporting
On Oct 29th, 2005 I blogged about his strange TV appearance and polled to ask if Woodward was drunk.

Pentagon admits using White Phosphorous in Iraq
Note how carefully parsed their confirmation is.
Translation: They did not intentionally aim at civilians, the US has not signed the Geneva Conventions Protocol 3 that bans incendiary weapons within civilian concentrations.
The PJ Media, Yes, it is the death of news
Fiscal tsunami warning for America
AlterNet: Blogs: The L-Files: Lakshmi Chaudhry links to USA Today's major article via Daily Kos:
To hear Walker, the nation's top auditor, tell it, the United States can be likened to Rome before the fall of the empire. Its financial condition is "worse than advertised," he says. It has a "broken business model." It faces deficits in its budget, its balance of payments, its savings and its leadership.
Walker's not the only one saying it. As Congress and the White House struggle to trim up to $50 billion from the federal budget over five years just 3% of the $1.6 trillion in deficits projected for that period budget experts say the nation soon could face its worst fiscal crisis since at least 1983, when Social Security bordered on bankruptcy.
Without major spending cuts, tax increases or both, the national debt will grow more than $3 trillion through 2010, to $11.2 trillion nearly $38,000 for every man, woman and child. The interest alone would cost $561 billion in 2010, the same as the Pentagon.
