Cindy Sheehan is now officially on the November ballot as an independent challenger to Nancy Pelosi.
Given Passive Pelosi™ action on the FISA mutilation bill, as well as failure to do more to cut off, restrict, slow down or otherwise constrain funding for Iraq, at a minimum, best of luck to you, Cindy.

Is John Edwards getting punked?
Rielle Hunter says she won’t undergo DNA testing to help establish paternity of the child Edwards may, or may not, have fathered.
If Edwards is telling the truth about not fathering the child, but may have seen Hunter later than he claims they ended things, I undergo paternity testing just to prevent any more gold-diggeritis.

Engage cloaking device, Mr. Sulu
Well, maybe in the 23rd century, some starship captain will say that. Scientists have invented two new “metamaterials” that can bend light the wrong way.
The two items work in different ways, and neither one claims to be opaque to the entire electromagnetic spectrum, but it’s a start.

A toast to Kevin Drum – with sewer water
Since January, Orange County, Calif., home of the Political Animal blogger, has been using recycled wastewater as part of its water supply.
Actually, the water, as recycled, is cleaner than Poland Springs bottled water. But, for psychological reasons, rather than being directly added to the water supply at that point, it’s injected into the county’s aquifers, in the process, actually becoming dirtier.

There goes Whole Foods’ ‘gourmet’ image
It’s recalling ground beef that might be E coli contaminated. And that ground beef came from Nebraska Beef, which also grinds hamburger for such gourmet grocery stores as … Kroger.
The Washington Post has more on Nebraska Beef, and it illustrates, just as did the two-month long salmonella saintpaul scare earlier this summer, all the problems with our Big Ag food system.
Whole Foods actually bought the beef from a company called Coleman Natural Foods, which actually had the meat processed (what an euphemism, isn’t it?) by Nebraska Beef.
As the story points out, Nebraska Beef has, well, a horrible past history, and why it hasn’t been shut down is unbelievable.
I have to wonder if Whole Foods sues Coleman over deceptive trade practices.
