Oprah Guru’s Deadly Sweat Lodge Involved Induced Vomiting, ‘Vomit Everywhere’

So, that horrifying sweat lodge where Oprah-endorsed guru James Arthur Ray may or may not have inadvertently killed three people? NYT has some new eye witness reports, and they’re as scary, icky, and infuriatingly New-Agey as you thought.

One of Roman Polanski ‘s supporters, French cultural minister Frédéric Mitterrand, admitted in 2005 to paying for sex with youthful “boys.” But now people are outraged, so he’s making a spectacular attempt to change his story.
