				<description>Hello All,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(It's Myozan here. I'll be filling in for Jundo this week. However, &lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;to facilitate regular live sitters, I will start this week's Zazenkai at the normal time&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt; (that's Midnight GMT). Please remember, I am a novice. So, things may not be as smooth as they usually are!) &lt;img src=&quot;images/smilies/sFun_duh.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;Duh&quot; class=&quot;inlineimg&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
