Select issue with some attr and others not.

Hello all,
Forgive me, im new at xsl but I have a xml file like below 
        <List id="someListid">
                <Title lang="en-US">Upcoming Impact Events</Title>
                <Title lang="es-ES">Acontecimientos Próximos Del
Impact</Title>
                <Item publishdate="04/02/2004">
                        <Title lang="en-US">IMPACT goes to Mexico</Title>
                        <Title lang="es-ES">El IMPACT va a México</Title>
                        <near
resource="/Base/Impact_Events/Impact-goes-to-Mexico"/>
                        <Description lang="en-US"><![CDATA[IMPACT goes to
Mexico today for a short term mission trip. ]]></Description>
                        <Description lang="es-ES"><![CDATA[El IMPACT va a
México hoy para un viaje a corto plazo de la misión. ]]></Description>
                </Item>
                <Item publishdate="01/02/2004">
                        <Title lang="en-US">IMPACT visits iThink Designs,

                        <Title lang="es-ES">El IMPACTvisita los  iThink

                        <far resource="http://www.ithinkdesigns.com/"/>
                        <Description lang="en-US"><![CDATA[IMPACT goes to

                        <Description lang="es-ES"><![CDATA[¡El IMPACT va a

                </Item>
                </List>

AND I want to pull back this result with xsl (depeding on the language.)

        <List id="someListid">
                <Title lang="en-US">Upcoming Impact Events</Title>
                        <Item publishdate="04/02/2004">
                        <Title lang="en-US">IMPACT goes to Mexico</Title>
                        <near
resourse="/Base/Impact_Events/Impact-goes-to-Mexico"/>
                        <Description lang="en-US"><![CDATA[IMPACT goes to
Mexico today for a short term mission trip. ]]></Description>
                        </Item>
                <Item publishdate="01/02/2004">
                        <Title lang="en-US">IMPACT visits iThink Designs,
Inc.</Title>
                        <far resourse="http://www.ithinkdesigns.com/"/>
                        <Description lang="en-US"><![CDATA[IMPACT goes to

                        </Item>
                </List>

But im not sure how to do it or where to start! I think what throws me off
is the <near> and <far> tags.
