Anyway, today we're going to talk about the font tag. It can only be used in HTML, not XHTML. CSS is better for this sort of thing, but i prefer the font tag. The font tag has three parts, face, color, and size. Each of these comes after the tag and can be separated by commas, but i don't like the commas.
Well, I wrote the story about tutor.com below, by the way, it's on my website as well. It seems the Internet isn't down today, which is...well...take it how you want to take it. Continuing with our HTML theme, the tag is only available in non-XHTML, HTML webpages, meaning only in HTML, in case you didn't figure that out. Yes, well, call me someone with bad jokes, but I bet you think something as simple as shouting "rabies" during class is funny, you shallow, crass individual. Anyway, the tag is what I must use for every web page, until I start using more CSS, though I did a great deal of editing with it to my homepage already, which Alec initially provided (personally, I might add, it's not the same template he posted online, it's just similar).
The p tag can best be used only for non-pictured texts, just plain text. The align = left, right, center, or justify can be used as well, but justify and center are the only ones you should use. If people with high rezzes are viewing your page, text aligned to the left or the right can look very strange. justify evens out the text across the screen, making it the best option, or for small titles center can be used, which obviously centers the text at the middle of the screen.
If you have have pictures and text, the p tag cannot be used very well, and it will look bad for people with high rezzes, so tables can be used. Tables can be made in MS Word and then saved into HMTL, or you can look it up. My HTML code will just disappear again, thank you. This is Josh, signing off.

In addition to restricting the type of games played, Xbox 360 will soon be able to limit the total number of hours played by younger gamers.
"As the customer base broadens, the demand for these kinds of capabilities does increase," said Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's entertainment and devices division.
Not unlike a similar feature found in Microsoft's Windows Vista operation system, the new timer will grant care-takers the ability to restrict total hours played on either a daily or weekly basis. Once the time limit is reached, the console will automatically turn off.
According to Bach, a restriction timer was the number-one most desired feature by parents in a recent study conducted by Microsoft.
News of an Xbox 360 timer was first rumored in early September.
Australian Government to Execute Anarchist Horses
YDNEY (AFP) - An Australian state government's plans to shoot more than 10,000 wild horses to protect the environment were Sunday attacked by some animal rights activists as inhumane. ADVERTISEMENT
The Queensland government had attempted to keep the cull of the horses, or brumbies, a secret because of fears of a public outcry.
But government documents confirming the cull were obtained by the media while the Save the Brumbies charity reproduced photographs it said are of the cull on its website.
One of the images shows a foal standing over its dead mother while the second shows a horse left to die with a wound to its rump and gut.
