If the content comes from TinyMCE, it'll be html - so you could also
just strip off the first paragraph and show that in full, rather than
show part of a paragraph, something like
http://davidwalsh.name/php-paragraph-regular-expression would do it.
You could easily wrap that into a helper method, or if you need it in
a lot of places, you could grab in the afterFind of your model and add
an extra field to your dataset.
