ok, i figured it out:
>>> from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
>>> for EVENT in TABLE_CONTENT:
... for index, item in enumerate(EVENT):
... if index == 4:
... soup = BeautifulSoup(item)
... for a in soup.findAll('a'):
... print ''.join(a.findAll(text=True))
... else:
... pass
... print '=== new record ==='
...
1945/07/16 11:29:45
=== new record ===
1945/08/05 23:16:02
=== new record ===
