		<description>For what it&#039;s worth, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webmonkey.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Webmonkey.com&lt;/a&gt; has excellent tutorials for all types of web programming (including normal web HTML markup, used on most sites).  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That site is what gave me my start, and I still use it as a web reference more than any book or site I&#039;ve found.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re right M, as much as I&#039;d like 2 lay this at the doorstep of Sonny, it really belongs to Shirley.  Me hopes that Shirley can works some wonders and get through the red tape before 12/31.</description>

		<description>I know this hasn&#039;t been much of an issue lately what with Michael Jackson dying, Sanford and Ensign, and Balin&#039; Palin, but I just saw Rep. Patrick Murphy (D) on CNN. Of course Wolf asked him why PBO isn&#039;t doing enough about DADT. Here is Murphy&#039;s response:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;BLITZER: Do you have any reason to believe that the president of the United States, who, during the campaign, since the campaign has said, you know what, I think it&#039;s time to move beyond &quot;don&#039;t ask, don&#039;t tell,&quot; but he -- so far he hasn&#039;t done it. Do you have any reason to believe he will take the first steps necessary to remove this policy?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;MURPHY: &lt;strong&gt;Absolutely. Wolf, in fact, he has -- already has done that.&lt;/strong&gt; He talked a week ago to the secretary of defense and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and said, listen, be ready to implement a change in the &quot;don&#039;t ask, don&#039;t tell&quot; policy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;He went and now it&#039;s our job as the Congress to overturn that policy.&lt;/strong&gt; What the president -- President Obama does, he understands and he has a healthy respect for a co-equal branch of government.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And he&#039;s not saying to his military, well, disregard what the Congress passed 16 years ago, no matter how wrong it might be. &lt;strong&gt;It was an act of Congress, Wolf, that put this law into place -- the discriminatory law into place. It will take an act of Congress to repeal it.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just sayin&#039;.</description>

		<description>See below.....we&#039;re got the same quote too.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Can we all stop trying to play &quot;gotcha!&quot; on this one? We&#039;re all referring to the &lt;i&gt;exact same statement.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If Perry&#039;s said flat out &quot;Texas should secede,&quot; provide the quote. I haven&#039;t heard it or read it. Short of that, I know what he said.</description>

		<description>So I&#039;m thinking about planning a trip to Hawaii for my b-day this year.  I haven&#039;t decided if I want to book a cruise, or if I want to fly.  Also, I need to decide which Island I want to visit.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here&#039;s the details, I hope to stay for at least 4 nights 5 days, and up to 7 days if I can swing it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;ll probably be going alone, so I would like to restrict the trip to the more touristy areas.</description>

		<description>What was he trying to say, then?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;All I&#039;ve got is &lt;i&gt;what&lt;/i&gt; he said.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Me and Miranda went through this a few days ago; the difference between state sovereignty under the 10th Amendement-which is what I think Perry was referring to-and outright secession, which I&#039;ve only heard from the way-the-hell-out-there fringe.</description>

		<description>We&#039;re talking damn near a decade of having these funds available and not being able to put it to good use...this is an outrage...this is just damn ridiculous. I&#039;m already disgusted with Atlanta&#039;s city government, now I&#039;m totally through.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Perry called his supporters patriots. Later, answering news reporters&#039; questions, Perry suggested Texans might at some point get so fed up they would want to secede from the union, though he said he sees no reason why Texas should do that.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yeah, okay. (rolling my eyes)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We see Rick Perry. We know what he was trying to say. He AIN&#039;T slick either.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;But&lt;/b&gt; if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what might come out of that.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Look @ that word, D! ...&lt;b&gt;But&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Umm Hum!</description>

		<description>I can see standing by a brand that is strong, but the NAACP&#039;s brand is no where as strong as it used to be. And related to organizing and outreach it is barely viable. All it has its history but is it worth it to rest on its laurels as opposed to maximize on its potential. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As far as I know Jealous, the 36 year old president, was chosen specifically to change things. And change the NAACP must. I think a name change will be a HUGE step forward- signifying its commitment to be more inclusive and increasing the possibilities of partnerning with a range of people.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Like the spirit of the Sankofa bird, flying forward while being able to look back.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s what he said:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Perry called his supporters patriots. Later, answering news reporters&#039; questions, Perry suggested Texans might at some point get so fed up they would want to secede from the union, though he said he sees no reason why Texas should do that. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;There&#039;s a lot of different scenarios,&quot; Perry said. &quot;We&#039;ve got a great union.
