This is a Dutch Tjalk with it's mast up. Conceivably we could sail to England across the channel or down into the Mediterranean with this one.

From the ACLU

"A document released for the first time today by the American Civil Liberties Union suggests that President Bush issued an Executive Order authorizing the use of inhumane interrogation methods against detainees in Iraq."


From Salon
"Seen the other way, more than a third of Americans think speaking out against government policy right now should be banned, presumably by government."
