		<description><![CDATA[Much talk in the media today about how Ryan Fogle, the captured CIA spy in Russia, was a rank amateur because &#8212; amongst other things &#8212; he was wearing a daft wig.

		<title>Bitcoin &#8212; The New Believers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The British current affairs programme Newsnight on BBC television recently aired a report about the woes of Cyprus. Elderly sun tanned citizens clawed futilely at the barren cash machines while eager reporters goaded them on with microphones.

		<description><![CDATA[Heaven 17 This is Mine I am a latecomer to Heaven 17. I got their best of a few years back and this is one great track. If you&#8217;d attended my Scottish comprehensive school back in 1984 and admitted to liking this then you would have been quite simply lynched.  The sax at 2:09 is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Usually when celebrities jump onto a cause it&#8217;s the A-lister who ends up putting his foot in it so it&#8217;s something of a relief to see Harrison Ford sounding platitudes about how getting clean drinking water running in distant &#8220;stressed&#8221; lands can lead to a lack of Jihadi attacks against the USA &#8212; an argument [...]]]></description>

		<title>Favela No More</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is with a sense of weary resignation that I learn why the &#8216;Favela&#8217; level has been removed from the online game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. It happened to Salman Rushdie and countless thousands of others so I suppose it was only a matter of time before religious grievance-mongering impacted on me (note [...]]]></description>
