		<title>Heaven</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t have any spiritual beliefs, but when I&#8217;ve lost a pet, I always find myself hoping that kitty is in an eternal sunspot somewhere, having a nice nap. It&#8217;s just a nice wish for someone you want the best for. I feel that way about Steve Jobs. Maybe not the sunspot part, but wouldn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Writing Life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hilary Mantel remains my favourite literary stoic, however. Despite her producing A Place of Greater Safety and other magnificent novels, prize juries overlooked her. After she finally won the Booker in 2009, she had every right to be triumphalist. Instead, she wrote in the Economist of how ‘once, when I was trudging home from my [...]]]></description>

[He also has a portfolio site under his own name-as-domain-name, but it's dominated by a super-pokey Adobe Flash interface that makes it grim to navigate.]]]></description>

		<title>Love Valve</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not exactly what the article is really about, but: [E]very Sunday, we would drive over and I&#8217;d play around either at the farm proper or the home they had with a couple of acres. And they owned a Pomeranian dog. First, this is a weird thing for a couple of farmers to own. I later [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Cornish Familiar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They looked as if they were posing, like when a dad picks up a camera and says: OK, I&#8217;m going to make a picture. The lamb and the pig were especially brushed up, like perfect little models of what a lamb and a piglet might be, with their own almost self-conscious sense of being alert [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Don&#8217;t Always Get to Choose</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We are our own worst witnesses in so many ways. Cognitive bias wraps a coat of many colors around our worst impulses, insulating us from the cold reality of how we look to others. Moreover, good deeds in public do not erase our private hatreds or contempt for others, although it is a step in [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Slippery Slope of Silencings</title>

It&#8217;s the presumption that makes it hard, at times, for any woman in any field; that keeps women from speaking up and from being heard when they dare; that crushes young women into silence by indicating, the way harassment on the street does, that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Punishing Good Deeds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So if you are a live organ donor, you may be denied if you apply for health insurance later. There&#8217;s a lot wrong with this, but let&#8217;s start with the facts: “It’s absurd,” says Matthew Cooper, director of kidney transplantation at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore. Transplant centers put potential donors through [...]]]></description>

After eight weeks, the symptoms of ADHD had grown more severe in kids who took only a half dose, but they remained stable in the groups that received either the full [...]]]></description>

New York Times on building codes, for example, and Boing Boing on how reactors work &#8211; and fail. (Bonus: The Atlantic on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Frozen Flamingos</title>

He pursued the story, talking to more than the Siberian locals. Marita Davison, who studies flamingos at Cornell University, says she regularly sees Bolivian flamingos [...]]]></description>
