 Thank you.

  Would anyone like to explain what is "the first installment"?

 

   BTW, do I have to put the question mark above into the quotation marks?

No, you put the ? inside the " only if the question was part of the original quote.

He asked, "What time does the library close?"

Did he just say something about "the weekend"? - Here the question is about the statement, not within the statement so it goes outside the quoatation marks.

   Thank you both.  

   Would anyone tell me what is "BarelyPoliticals Def Political Jam"? I googled it and only found that it was just from the article:

Obama GOES OFF on the Clintons!    So I have no idea to figure out what it means.

Never heard of it. Sounds like pehaps a political satire site, or one devoted to the more stupid side of politics?
