		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve entered a new arena of horror &#8211; where our Richter scale, for the first time, doesn&#8217;t seem to reach high enough, and adjectives are crumbling under the impact. &#8220;Devastation&#8221; or &#8220;catastrophe&#8221;? None of the usual descriptors feel powerful enough.
So as punched-gut news of another urban area implosion reaches you today, this one from Chile, [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Even the predawn day began a little differently. The shrill distant stadium cheers of hundreds of Haitian roosters sounded oddly synchronized, as though perhaps they were doing the wave. There were more dogs keeping the beat with incessant, rhythmic barking.

While fearful in aspect to my teammates, my somewhat altered appearance had simple explanations. Despite my wearing glasses, concrete grit fell in my eye when I tried, unsuccessfully, to hammer a mosquito-net hook into [...]

The major road around the lake is now, unbelievably after all these miles, dirt. Only an ankle-pile of rubble at the edge prevents flooding, making me wonder what will happen, in the rainy season, to [...]

When Avatar-esque aliens finally descend on us from another multi-verse, they will undoubtedly believe that Valentine&#8217;s Day celebrates the mating rituals of the svelte, the pristine, the adored, and the orthodontially flawless. In other words, we take a day to honor sex lives of the Photoshopped. Because that&#8217;s what you see everywhere, isn&#8217;t [...]
