<p><br />
&lt;style type='text/css'&gt;<br />
sytle from .css<br />

An example:</h3>
<p><br />
class .intro</p>
<p><font style="margin:0px 0px 9px;padding:0px;font-size:16px;color:rgb(153,0,0);font-weight:normal;line-height:23px;">Rather than a mass customer base, advertising on these blogs gives lobbyists unbridled access to an extremely valuable audience: Britains political elite</font></p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>It's an exciting time for YAAMNY as we develop the Agenda for our Strategic Planning retreat this weekend.</p>
<p>I spent this morning working with Jenny on formulating the goal and deliverables for the weekend.  It's incredibly interesting to work on figuring out how to adapt our currently completely virtual organization at <a href="http://yaamny.net">yaamny.net </a>into a sustainable volunteer organization that is capable of its own programs.</p>
<p>Here's <a href="http://yaamny.net/6478/AYA_YAAMNY_Planning_Retreat">the agenda</a> we're working on.</p>
