		<description><![CDATA[In Worcester Magazine, March, 2005
If you can manage “The Sleeper,” that will ultimately lead to bigger and better tricks. Beginners master that, along with stuff called the “UFO,” “Rock The Baby,” “The Jamaican Flag” and “Creeper.” If you’ve got those down, it’s time for dazzlers like the “Ripcord,” “Drop in the Bucket” and “Atomic Bomb.” [...]]]></description>
