The last few weeks have been just one damn&#8217; thing after another—none of them major or life-threatening, all of them just gumming up the works, to the point where I haven&#8217;t even [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For a neat encapsulation of all that is wrong with our world, you need look no further than this post by Johann Hari in today&#8217;s HuffPo.
He writes, about the decision of one corporation—United Fruit—to take a single species of the banana out of the jungle and mass produce it on huge plantations:

Casing the joint?
According to MSNBC, there is a mysterious dearth of acorns in parts of the US, and nobody really knows why. So what, you say? Well, the problem is, fewer acorns means &#8220;starving, skinny squirrels&#8221; rampaging through garbage, pumpkin patches, and bird feeders. Now, we&#8217;ve got plenty of fat and sassy squirrels in this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Slate, the original and still my favourite online &#8216;zine, has a wonderful article by Johann Hari on Rose George&#8217;s The Big Necessity: The Unmentionable World of Human Waste and Why It Matters.
The article, and I assume the book, is full of wonderful little nuggets like this one, on London&#8217;s sewers:

Finally, the truth about Palin ~ that she represents the blow-in Alaskans who were attracted north by the oil boom of the 70s, settling in ill-planned towns like Wasilla, and whose vision [...]]]></description>
