eyes of laura

Hello, I am Laura, a security guard at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Through work,
I have access to a lot of security cameras. I hacked a way to put one of these
online on my Website so you can see it and control it. I love surveillance and
keep a web journal or blog of what I see and put up video and images of things
that happen.

Sex and the single robot

"Artificial chromosomes" that will

develop to make robots more
human-like. Kim said: "Robots will

CULTURE

Christian crusaders go to battle over spanking

To raise a child, one needs three invaluable allies: the Bible, the help of an extended family and "biblical-based resources" -- 9-inch-long spanking paddles of blue polyurethane, according to Steve Haymond from Bakersfield, who sells the paddles online for $6.50 apiece.

Paranoia grips the U.S. capital

This week, former military intelligence analyst William Arkin revealed a hitherto unknown directive, with the Orwellian name "JCS Conplan 0300-97," authorizing the Pentagon to employ special, ultra-secret "anti-terrorist" military units on American soil for what the author claims are "extra-legal missions."

In other words, using U.S. soldiers to kill or arrest Americans, acts that have been illegal since the U.S. Civil War.

WRITINGS

Poem by Lewis LaCook

My Mary,

...and then it all shrugs off in steep wheelies. Your skin is the color of stars and softer than gravity and all day long the wedge of your smile covered over by your hand muffling sudden thrushes on shorelines moving just beneath you, far from maps, is where I sleep for afternoons. That way my cigarettes won't get wet. If it sounds strange to tell you I love you it's because a new thing in the world weaves as it stands at first, strong thatch and strong cloth, will sit still if you don't bolt. Just for letting you know how haunted I can be, so glass-eyed, spare. You want her to have my eyes. If she can duplicate your tomboy nerves, the suck back into sugar'd forts, and your cockiness at the foot of everything, I'll kiss her eyelids open as of us, join. To keep my clothes, my skin on the beach. So this is how it feels.

I'm scared, Mary, and it hurts to wake inside me.
