java.io.UTFDataFormatException
I've tried validating an xml file against a schema two different ways and I get the following error. I found something on the web stating that there could be some data problem regarging special characters. Not sure what though.
java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid byte 2 of 2-byte UTF-8 sequence.

Here is some of the xml file being parsed. Notice anything early on that could cause a problem?
