		<description><![CDATA[LiAnne Grad Speech 2011 &#60; Audio Version
As Student council president, LiAnne gave the graduation speech for her eight grade class.  I thought she did a good job.  Of course, I am not at all biased.

		<description><![CDATA[When I heard about the "Internet Freedom Act" my immediate reaction was that it did not have much to do with freedom. I was right. The act seeks to restrict my freedom to receive the internet content I choose. It will stifle innovation and contribute to the further consolidation of the media. In short, it is one of the least freedom inducing act to be introduced in a very long time. ]]></description>

My 12 year old daughter came home and asked me for a book.
She wanted another book in the series of one she just finished.
Her Catholic school teacher said it was fine for reading class.
It seemed like a harmless enough so off to the bookstore.
