		<title>The Oscars!  &#8230;whatever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Did the Oscars sneak up on you this year?  The majority of Americans didn&#8217;t have $13 to spend on every &#8220;3-D Adventure&#8221; that came down the Hollywood poop-shoot.  According to the-numbers.com, annual ticket sales have dropped nationwide, but their revenue is on the rise.  With only so much disposable income for movie tickets, most of [...]]]></description>

My problem is with their clout as a cultural influences. Let me explain.

		<title>Death of the Music Industry</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think this graph perfectly represents how the music industry has been handling the changing music business climate. I think, poorly, sums it up nicely. Im not sure if the years of suing their customers for &#8220;file sharing&#8221; or the general lack of quality control in the music they release has had an impact on [...]]]></description>

Each panelist or &#8216;noted football expert&#8217; selects a moment in the past week&#8217;s games where a player seemingly didnt show up to play or had a complete lapse in judgement. The panelist shows the clip and then state [...]]]></description>

		<title>Washington&#8217;s Other Subway</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never had a chance to ride this. It&#8217;s also not surprising how well the system looks, considering it&#8217;s for the Feds.  In comparison, the DC Metro was completed in the mid 1970&#8242;s and  is in need of  many repairs and general maintenance. Where as, the Capitol Subway was built in the early 1900&#8242;s and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Comical Comic Sans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The design world is often very hostile towards the font, Comic Sans MS, originally created for Microsoft to use in their office applications. Generally the thinking is that fonts have very specific purposes and carry different meanings. Comic Sans could be described as round,  having soft-edges, child-like and generally happy looking.  The hostility towards this [...]]]></description>
