		<description><![CDATA[I am not. Particularly when it comes to connecting with all the high tech gadgets, I am not highly connected. Before you say, &#8220;well, that&#8217;s fairly typical for a middle-aged person,&#8221; let me say that I am computer literate and somewhat of a nerd. I build websites. I code in html and css.

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know about the rest of you, but I&#8217;m more than a little concerned about what our children are learning, in and out of school.

Foreign, unfamiliar, oohh&#8230;maybe someone not to be trusted, maybe even *gasp* dangerous. Ok, I get it. Cushy jobs like this are hard to come by for [...]]]></description>

According to the Center for Disease Control, this government&#8217;s health and medical watchdog, the number one killer of young black women is HIV/AIDS.
