		<description><![CDATA[With a frightening lack of preparation, and nothing in the way of a life preserver, our culture tosses its young males into the shark tank of adult life. It&#8217;s no wonder that so many go under, succumbing to destructive peer pressure or substance abuse or the dead end of a premature marriage. David Hafter, who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So what does it mean to say a guy &#8220;has balls&#8221;? Of course he has balls. Every guy has balls, right? Sure, but we&#8217;re not talking about testicles; we&#8217;re talking about balls. You get known for having balls by how you act, especially under pressure. When the chips are down, a guy who has balls [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is easy to confuse having balls with having heart. Great athletes have heart. Some have balls, too, but if they do it has nothing to do with what they do during the game. Giving the famous &#8220;110%&#8221; on the playing field is playing with heart — “ which is great and admirable. But it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
