		<description><![CDATA[The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) is a bill running through Congress in an attempt to curb the illegal uploading and downloading of copyrighted information and programs. Unfortunately, due to extremely vague wording and unclear definitions, the censorship proposed could extend to websites such as Facebook, various e-mails, and any other free forum.

		<description><![CDATA[I used to hang out at McDonald&#8217;s. On Friday nights, when there’s absolutely nothing to do, why not go get some chicken nuggets and chill at the McLounge? I’m young, my metabolism is high, and it was too easy to just ignore the greasy, catsup-covered, animal I was eating. However, this summer, some food documentaries [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Benilde-St. Margaret’s Student Body, Selecting a high school is many times about what AP courses are offered and what colleges one can likely gain admission to. Without a doubt, Benilde-St. Margaret’s lives up to its reputation as one of the best college prep schools in Minnesota, if not the nation. Last fall, I watched [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the entire Roman Catholic Missal being revamped, now is the time for us to give BSM’s Mass a slight face-lift. The most troubling portion of the Mass is the substantial emphasis on the Common Basket, and in turn, the upstaging of the Eucharist, which is meant to be the focal point of the Mass.

		<description><![CDATA[The news shows the Occupy movement as a violent, unorganized rabble of people with no clear goal, so, while visiting Capitol Hill in Seattle, I readied myself for an anarchic group of ultra-liberal government purists prepared to tear down our current system of government in order to replace it with a Utopian democracy.

		<description><![CDATA[Although there was a lot of talk among the students of the topics addressed by the speaker Dr. Michael Fowlin, the bullying seminar didn’t leave a lasting impact on the BSM community or promote any improvement for the future. This is due to a lack of follow-up in the classroom, the students’ inability to remain [...]]]></description>
