		<description><![CDATA[As a voting member of a &#8220;third&#8221; party, I am often annoyed by the assumptions of non-third party voters. First, I&#8217;d like to take issue with &#8220;third&#8221;. In general, yes, this is a two-party system. But &#8220;Green&#8221; is not synonymous with &#8220;Third&#8221;. Especially since there are some really whacked-out &#8220;thirds&#8221; that deserve to be called [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During Obama&#8217;s recent visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem, according to tradition, he wrote a prayer on a piece of paper and left it there. However, since he is under media scrutiny right now, it was stolen by a young seminary student (who should have known better!). While I disagree completely with its theft, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A legal team attempting to defend their client against (among other things) &#8220;obscenity&#8221; charges is trying to get Google to release certain stats about search terms in the area the trial is taking place. This is because part of the &#8220;obscenity&#8221; definition relies upon what &#8220;the average person, applying contemporary community standards&#8221; would find obscene. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So&#8230;the Church of England has voted to allow female bishops. Which sounded awesome to me, despite the fact that those opposed to it have called those in favor of it &#8220;mean spirited&#8221; for disallowing &#8220;super bishops&#8221; (read: male bishops) for congregants that object to the authority of a female bishop. I&#8217;ll come back to that. [...]]]></description>
