		<description><![CDATA[On December 27, 2011, it was a damp but impressively warm (high of 57 degrees, way above normal) in New York.  The streets in the financial district were packed with tourists at the World Trade Center site to see the new buildings rising, and shoppers filled the nearby Century 21 department store, picking over the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The big news on Egyptian autocrat Hosni Mubarak&#8217;s historic Feb. 1 televised speech, according to most U.S. news media,  is that he decided he would not run for reelection in September.  In Mubarak&#8217;s less-than-categorical words,  &#8220;I say in all honesty and regardless of the current situation that I did not intend to nominate myself for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yet, if evil is censoring information to appease Chinese authorities, then evil has already been done.  Earlier this year, Google admitted to creating a new search engine for the China market, Google.cn, that filters out offending sites, including many relating to Tibetan independence, the Tiananmen Square massacre, the Falun Gong religion, and even BBC News. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What was scarcely reported about Powellâ€™s visit (and what the State Department doesnâ€™t want you to know) is that Hungary is likely to bring their 350 troops home at the end of this year, regardless of Powellâ€™s appearance here. Already this year, at least five nations have dropped out of the â€œcoalition of the willing,â€ and Hungary (along with the Czech Republic to the north) are soon destined to join the coalition of the unwilling.

		<description><![CDATA[If you are online, itâ€™s probably no surprise to you that by last month, spam accounted for 63 percent of all e-mail volume (up from 46 percent a year ago, and 25 percent just two years ago), according to Brightmail.com. A report at the end of last year stated that the average e-mail user receives 54.4 unwanted e-mail messages a day. Even worse, researchers predict spam levels will only increase â€“ perhaps 75 percent of all e-mail volume by next year.

		<description><![CDATA[In the U.K, the process starts with buying a TV. Then, you must pay, either in full, or quarterly or monthly, an annual TV license fee of about $205. (If youâ€™re 75 or older, you get to watch for free.) Although this sounds odd, itâ€™s the way TV is supported in the U.K. and most other European countries. In return for this, British citizens can receive for free on their digital antenna eight commercial-free BBC channels, more than 10 commercial-free digital radio channels, and dozens of additional commercially-supported television and radio stations. Like in the U.S., if you want more channels, you have to pay for cable or satellite services.
