		<description><![CDATA[This is the prevailing thought for the moment after hearing a disturbing tale today that emanated from a place I once enjoyed being. It prompted me to think about myself, the people around me and how we all inter-relate. Just what IS the difference between a leader and an alpha male?
In order to truly define [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Or should this more aptly be named &#8220;the objective-c follies&#8221;? Seriously. This is an entirely new code structure and I&#8217;m having a hard time grasping even the simplest concepts.
