		<title>The Perils of Language Learning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In 9th grade I had to pick between Spanish or French and even though I had French speaking family at home, I had absolutely no interest in either.

		<title>JSConf and NodeConf &#8211; 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week was both JSConf and NodeConf in Portland, OR and it was absolutely epic.
