         <title>Continued attempts to ban books</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>We have more mommies attempting to ban books.  <a href="http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/384107_bunnysuicide21.html">Only this time, the lady has kept the book and refuses to return it</a>.  <br />
<blockquote>"It is a comic book, but that's not funny. Not at all," Anderson told the Albany Democrat-Herald newspaper. "I don't care if your kid is 16, 17, 18. It's wrong."<br /><br />Anderson contacted Principal Julie Knoedler, who told her about the district's book-challenge policy.<br /><br />Anderson plans to fill out the forms, but she's not taking any chances. Once the review is over, regardless of the outcome, she plans to burn it.<br /><br />"They're not getting this book back," she said, adding that if the library replaces it: "I'll have somebody else check it out and I'll keep that one. I'm just disgusted by the whole ordeal."</blockquote></p>

<p>When will these people learn?  <i>You can't do that</i>.  </p>

<p><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2008/sep/29/philip.pullman.amber.spyglass.golden.compass.banned">Here's a short article about the evil and futility of banning books</a>.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>I still watch Saturday Night Live sometimes.  Usually on Saturdays.  Mainly for the nostalgic feeling, <a href="http://www.hulu.com/watch/37730/saturday-night-live-vp-debate-open-palin--biden">guest appearances by Tina Fey</a>, and rare gems like this one from last night's episode.  Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals:</p>

<p>I've liked Mark Wahlberg since <i>Three Kings</i>.  Lindsey secretly makes fun of me for it.</p>]]></description>

         <title>World Animal Day</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Happy birthday to my wife, who shares the day with animals everywherer: it's World Animal Day.  </p>

<blockquote>Started in Florence Italy in 1931 at a convention of ecologists, World Animal Day has since expanded its focus from its original intent, which was to bring attention to endangered or threatened species. The day is now set aside as a time to reflect on all of the animals we share this world with, and our involvement with them - and to spur action to commemorate that respectful relationship. Half the world's mammals are declining in population and more than a third are probably threatened with extinction, according to an update of of the Red List (an inventory of biodiversity issued by the IUCN), released on October 6, 2008</blockquote>

<p>There are some amazing photos over at <a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2008/10/world_animal_day.html">The Big Picture</a>.  </p>]]></description>
