Trojan Donkey, Talk To Action, September 26, 2006:

The 95-10 Initiative is becoming legislation in the U.S. House!

 Why should such a compassionate program have had to wait so long for a sponsor?

Maybe it's because 95-10 calls for preventing pregnancy, but mentions contraception only in regard to failure rates -- anti-choice dog whistle code for "abstinence-only."  Maybe it's because 95-10 also calls for the imposition of repressive legislation upon every physician in the country. Maybe it's because 95-10 mandates federal funding for a nationwide network to funnel unsuspecting women seeking information about abortion into crisis pregnancy center "ministries."

Security Analysis of the Diebold AccuVote-TS Voting Machine, Center for Information Technology Policy, Princeton University

Princeton security researchers have taken apart one of Diebold's voting machines and done a thorough security analysis of its workings.

They've published a paper and video showing how this could be done.
