Elliotte Rusty Harold : XML Protocols, XML-RPC and SOAP
"For most of this book, my examples are going to focus on XML protocols. These are XML applications used for machine-to-machine exchange of information exchange across the Internet over HTTP. In this chapter I'll show you how such documents move from one machine to another... However, since this is not a book about network programming, I'm going to be careful to keep all the details of network transport separate from the generation and processing of XML documents. When you work with an XML document, you don't care whether it came from a file, a network socket, a string, or something else."
Cary Tennis : "A drunk hides nothing from another drunk. So when I look at Bush,
I don't see a conservative Republican, a flirter with the Christian right, a Texas oilman, a son of political royalty. I see a guy like me who never wants to quit, who has an infinite thirst and an infinite appetite for whatever you've got and who, if he could, would drink up the whole room and then tear it apart looking for more. I see a guy barely containing a murderous contempt for anyone who doesn't drink like he does; I see a guy who has to pause when answering questions not because there's nothing in his head but because there's too much in his head and most of it is vile and the rest is obscene; no doubt the first thing that pops into his head when asked a question at a press conference is "You have the face of a barnyard animal" or "I'd like to fuck you silly." That apparent blankness, as though his brain is having a rolling blackout, is actually a sign that he's sorting, looking for an answer that's both true and bland, something that won't set off any alarms, something that will satisfy his need to tell the truth yet not give in to the grandiose and contemptuous impulses so familiar to alcoholics far and wide."
