		<description><![CDATA[I believe you&#8217;ll agree that the most important thing after getting into the college of your dreams, is actually graduating from it.
In order to do this, you&#8217;ll have to fulfill several requirements, depending on the college and its type.
First of all, you should know that some colleges admit you directly in the major of your [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In some countries, after the senior year, the students pass an examination one or more subjects. Sometimes it&#8217;s optional, sometimes it&#8217;s not. For instance, in France, le BAC is a requirement in order to continue on your studies. In the UK, students have the possibility of taking A-levels if they want to.

		<description><![CDATA[Le pourboire (tipping) aux Etats-Unis est un concept totalement différent de celui que l&#8217;on peut trouver en France. En effet, dans les restaurants ou les bars par exemple, les serveurs et barmen américains sont nettement sous-payés. Ils sont censés compenser par les pourboires qu&#8217;ils reçoivent. Certaines soirées seront (très) payantes - j&#8217;ai une amie bartender [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s probably the reason why many Europeans people quickly gain weight here once they come overseas.

A partir d&#8217;aujourd&#8217;hui, il faudra payer une surtaxe de $15 pour votre premier bagage sur American Airlines. United et US Airways ont aussi annoncé l&#8217;introduction de first-bag fees d&#8217;ici juillet. Comme le suggeste le New York [...]]]></description>
