				<description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font size="7"&gt;Announcement&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is an announcement for those of you who are my clients.&amp;#160; As some know, I was a professional baseball player.&amp;#160; It was natural the I coach my son's team when he begged me to play.&amp;#160; I was looking forward to the end of the season (tomorrow), but along the way a funny thing happened...my son became good enough to be an All-Star (Pinto7...Pony League 7 year old division) and the league asked me to be the All-Star Manager.&amp;#160; Well, as some of you also know, i am a very community minded fellow so I had no choice but to accept.&amp;#160; Not a big deal on a SW forum, but a big deal for these 14 little guys and something that they will always remember.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What does this mean?&amp;#160; It means that my saber production rate will be "slowed" for the next few months.&amp;#160; I will still be working on them, but baseball will take 25-30 hours of my week so that only leaves about 10 for sabers.&amp;#160; I am currently working on the next MKVI Auction saber and will continue ot work through my current build log but may not open it up until the All-Star season ends.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks for everyone's understanding. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

				<title>Sithstalker Finished</title>
				<author><name>LDM</name></author>
				<link>http://www.ldmcustomsabers.com/apps/blog/show/13941229</link>
				<description>&lt;p&gt;I just knocked this saber out for my personal collection.&amp;#160; That is the beauty of the build log system that I now have in place, I get to build 2-3 personal projects per quarter and that keeps my creativity flowing. I t has a CFv5.10 and is a replica of the ""Sithstalker" saber from the Force Unleashed Ultimate Sith Edition Video game.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.ldmcustomsabers.com/photos/Custom-Sabers/103_9468.JPG"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

				<link>http://www.ldmcustomsabers.com/apps/blog/show/13921895</link>
				<description>&lt;p&gt;Okay, I am going to spill the beans on "when" I will open some slots.&amp;#160; I will be opening (2) CF and (3) PC spots.&amp;#160; Because of the Easter Holiday tomorrow I will be gone all day. Therefore, I will not open the spots until AT LEAST Monday.&amp;#160; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Also, one of my Doctors is ill and may be out this week.&amp;#160; If this happens, I will be stuck in the hospital all week and could push the opening of hte spots until next weekend to keep myself from having too much to deal with this week.&amp;#160; So, if I do not open the spots on Monday, it will not be until next weekend.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now...get some sleep DJ ;)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
