		<title>SPAM to feed hungry children? you wish it were true&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t see the need to review what gets caught in Spam Karma or Akismet at all - for rarely genuine comments are wrongly flagged as spam (unless the same visitor tries to write more than 3-4 comments on the same day!). But when I do get notification about the &#8220;comments held for moderation&#8221;, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Up Dates&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been pretty lethargic in the blogging department lately. It might seem as if I have completely abandoned my blogs, which is not the case by the way (well, this is a part-proof!). I felt I must post something today because:

I just upgraded my WordPress installation to the latest version - I would say good [...]]]></description>

Location: Tamale
State of Mind: Unknown
Playing in Background: Andrea Bocelli (Vivere - The Best of Andrea Bocelli)
Reason for Staying Awake: Got 2 hours of good sleep earlier before being woken up by some noise outside the house (party people returning from the club it seems!)

		<title>the week that was&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Work without end, struggle without work
It wasn&#8217;t my plan to set off with an unfinished paper in hand (on computer rather), but thats was happened. I could probably find many &#8220;genuine&#8221; excuses but the most genuine of all the excuses - and which isn&#8217;t really an excuse - is my excessive procrastination. In any case, [...]]]></description>

		<title>in Tamale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[well, this is just a quick tablogging to let you know that i&#8217;m alive and well in Tamale. work, more appropriately lack thereof, is giving headaches - more so than the heat here. in fact days have been pretty cool since i arrived with cloudy skies and cool breeze, sometimes bordering to violent summer winds.

		<title>flickr-ing woes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Achievement: posted my 200th photograph on flickr (well, not really an &#8220;achievement&#8221; given that I joined in 2005!) BUT
The Catch: Free account apparently only lets you show off the last 200 photographs uploaded AND it suggests I should upgrade!

So: I&#8217;m gonna weigh the costs vs benefits of spending a couple of dollars a month on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Re:Public</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think it should have come about 7 years earlier - but better late than never. Headlines everywhere are that the Himalayan nation has voted to become the newest republic ending 240 years of monarchy. But I particularly liked the following headline on the BBC WorldService Radio at 03:00 GMT -
Nepalese decide to get rid [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m typing these lines at the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, and not surprisingly its raining outside - coming after a couple of weeks in hot climate, the cool weather comes as a relief but the never-ending drizzle dampens the sense of relief considerably - to the point that you want to get away from this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Wait
People are already in a holiday mood. It&#8217;s 4:30 am and they are waiting for their flights with a couple of pints of lager already in them and a pint in front of them. Their destination - Ibiza or Amsterdam or Vienna, and it wouldn&#8217;t surprise me if they needed help getting on the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After spending a couple of hours half finishing a couple of drafts, and not being able to complete either, I&#8217;ve gone back to my last resort - typing the ghazal while I listened to it, and here it is. At least my blog will show up as &#8220;recently updated&#8221; in your newsfeed readers. Sorry to [...]]]></description>
