It was created to help non profits understand and begin using social media tools like Facebook, Twitter, Meet Up and others to strengthen their fundraising efforts and visibility, among other things.]]></description>

How can someone claim to be a Washington outsider and be so ignorant and disrespectful of the work of community organizers? So she wants to take shots at Obama–that is certainly her right and she has every reason to do so. ...]]></description>

Be there or be square tomorrow morning, 10am. Wear a coat or three.
UPDATE: The Martin Luther King Jr. Day march was an amazing time. I always get a little misty eyed during such events. We marched from the Warren County Justice Center to the State Street Baptist Church, passing through the square on the way. The folks at Kaleidoscope made awesome signs on a Mind/Body/Soul theme. At the convocation at the church they performed poetry, hip-hop and even a little Beatles. I&#8217;d put up more photos but my camera ran ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ What with there being no rain (in this part of Kentucky) for the last, I don&#8217;t know, month or more, things are beginning to dry up. For most large establishments, like universities, malls and government agencies, this means it&#8217;s time to fight the unsightly problem in the best way they know how. Tons of water sprayed ambitiously across the campus as though even the sidewalks were thirsty.
However, since it became apparent that Warren County and it&#8217;s neighbors are suffering from &#8220;severe to mild&#8221; drought, I am proud to say ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most of us who live around Fayetteville and consume a substantial amount of coffee, tea or juice (or is that just me?) go to Arsaga&#8217;s at least once a week. And for good reason. The coffee is great, and even better now that they are roasting it themselves. The atmosphere is always great and you&#8217;re likely to meet at least one person you know (or is that just me, too?) I&#8217;m especially fond of the random and sometimes brilliantly juvenile â€“ in a good way, seriously â€“ philisophical blurbs on ...]]></description>
