At the Stranger's annual Valentine's Day Bash, the alt-weekly's editor and nationally-syndicated sex columnist destroyed sentimental artifacts from relationships gone awry, employing some unusual tools, including fire and urine. A video from the event was posted on the The Stranger's blog, where Savage recounts his favorite moments of destruction: "Melting down a wedding ring and chucking the little blob of melted gold into the street -- right up there with taking a hammer to a diamond engagement ring."
Reps. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) and Rick Boucher (D-Va.) plan to reintroduce their long-stalled legislation that would shield reporters from having to reveal their sources to federal prosecutors in most cases, according to the Chronicle. The exceptions would be in cases where disclosure could prevent imminent harm to national security, where journalists were first-hand observers to a crime, and where a corporation's trade secret was revealed. The Chronicle also reports that Sens. Chris Dodd, (D-Conn.) and Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) are preparing to reintroduce a similar bill in the Senate.
