FURNITURE FOR FUN: WOMAN TESTS SEX CHAIRS

LOS ANGELES (Wireless Flash) -- TV journalist Kara Blanc knows something about combining work and pleasure. She's a reporter for the Playboy Channel news show, "Sexcetera," and her latest assignment is to test "porniture" -- in other words, furniture designed for sex. Blanc says her favorite contraption is a $300 device called the "Bungee Sex Swing," which has straps to support the body for gravity-free sex. The device is camouflaged to look like a ordinary workout machine. On Blanc's "thumbs down list" is something called the "Power Thruster Punishment Chair." It features a car battery-operated vibrator that produces "...loud, whirring noises." Blanc's report on "porniture" will air May 22.
