		<title>Narco gangster reveals the underworld</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Awesomely horrific interview from the Houston Chronicle where they interview a drug trafficker under the condition of anonymity about the drug war&#8217;s death toll. Fuuuucked up. <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/06/16/narco-gangster-reveals-the-underworld/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

		<title>Galveston Reading&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A rum row (a line of booze-laden ships from Cuba, Jamaica, and the Bahamas) became a fixture approximately 35 miles (56 km) beyond the coastline where smaller boats fetched the goods and brought them to shore. (Via The Free State of Galveston on Wikipedia) Hurricane season starts tomorrow. So far in my tenure as a… <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/05/31/galveston-reading/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

		<title>There Is No Such Thing As A Bikini Body</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something to think about as we head into this holiday weekend: The truth is, the &#34;bikini body&#34; craze goes so much deeper than fatism or fatphobia. It is part of our society&#8217;s relentless insistence that a woman&#8217;s body is not her own. The last part of the line really struck me. I&#8217;ve been spending so… <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/05/27/there-is-no-such-thing-as-a-bikini-body/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

		<title>Five Texas Sluts Worth Admiring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SlutWalk Houston is right around the corner. In case you&#8217;re not familiar with the march, SlutWalk was born of a Toronto police officer&#8217;s comment that women should avoid &#8220;dressing like sluts&#8221; in order not to be raped. It&#8217;s a chance to stop the cycle of victim blaming when it comes to rape, and possibly to… <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/05/25/five-texas-sluts-worth-admiring/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

		<title>The Banana, The Fastest Fruit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Art Car Weekend embodies everything I adore about Houston. It&#8217;s not just that I love the parade and it&#8217;s accompanying festivities, it&#8217;s that Art Car is a normal, everyday aspect of Houston life that people who don&#8217;t live here rarely get to experience when they come to, say, Greenspoint for a business trip. For example.… <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/05/23/the-banana-the-fastest-fruit/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

		<title>On Basketball, Tragedy and How I Became A Writer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In 2008 Oklahoma finally got a professional major league sports team. For years people said OKC could not support such a venture. Boy were they wrong. I&#8217;ve always been a college basketball, never a pro fan, but that&#8217;s changing now that the Thunder are in the playoffs, against a Texas team even. Yesterday, on the… <a href="http://rulebrittaniea.org/2011/05/17/on-basketball-tragedy-and-how-i-became-a-writer/" rel="bookmark">Read more</a>]]></description>

I loved her in nearly everything she did, from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof to Who&#8217;s Afraid of Virginia Woolf to A Place In The Sun, but the above scene has always been my favorite.
