		<description><![CDATA[I have decided to come out of retirement as a muckraker. The inspiration for resuming my career as a scandal-monger is the abundance of dirt being spread on the Internet, in the nation&#8217;s tabloids and spewed from the mouths of right-wing radio and TV lunatics.
This time around, its going to be easy for me to uncover [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the old days before reporters got holy—at least in their collective minds—freeloading was a perk of journalism. Tickets to sporting events, rock concerts, theme parks, free drinks and meals were accepted without a second thought given to the impropiety of sponging off politicians and other people we wrote about.

		<description><![CDATA[A recent decision by the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the Federal Communication Comission&#8217;s broadcast indecency policy. The ruling stated that FCC standards covering offensive language are &#8220;unconstitutionally vague.&#8221;
If the decision is eventually upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, it could open the door for CNN to finally do something innovative. Take for example all the boring talking heads [...]]]></description>

If readers blinked while perusing the newspaper or answered the phone while watching television, there is a good chance they missed last week&#8217;s report that the District Attorney in Portland has closed the investigation.

There&#8217;s many people in the world just like our Henny-Penny, 
They panic when they listen to the news, 
They think the sky is falling and we&#8217;re all about to die, 
I&#8217;d say they have the Henny-Penny-Blues. 

The Lightnin&#8217; Hopkins song should be adopted as the anthem of the Tea Party. &#8220;The sky is falling&#8221; iseems [...]]]></description>

By the time the weekend rolled around, CNN viewers began losing interest in Sherrod. This is unfortunate because there are facets [...]]]></description>

From that vantage point, the pitcher can determine the number of fingers displayed by the catcher for a fastball, curve ball, slider, etc. Ideally, the pitcher will then throw the ball within centimeters of his target.
