		<title>Cop-enhagen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Art remix via Boing Boing. Artist is Camilla Brodersen.

Globalizing police brutality. Everyone wants to be like America these days. At least the world was sent some kind of message even if it had nothing to do with the climate.
Best in show: Hugo Chavez with the now classic quip &#8212; &#34;If Climate Were Bank, U.S. Would [...]]]></description>

		<title>Robber Barons</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ In case you missed it, because I sure did, Battlefield Band has a new album out – &#34;Zama Zama &#8230;try your luck&#8230;&#34;. The title track &#34;Robber Barons&#34; beautifully captures the spirit of the times, and acts as a reminder that some things never change. In Alan Reid&#8217;s words:
Anyone who has travelled by the river [...]]]></description>

		<title>Grand Theft Auto IV PC and DRM</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Who is killing PC gaming again? (VE3D) Rockstar is certainly letting us all down. And it would seem that the advantage of choosing a scene (&#34;pirated&#34;) version is now greater than ever before. It&#8217;s not just free, but it has added benefits that go far beyond just getting rid of the old CD check.

		<title>Twitterists</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Turns out the US Empire is keeping an eye on Twitter (Yahoo). Perhaps an inadvertent slip, but listen to the wording for an idea of what gives the Empire the heebie-jeebies presently:
&#34;Twitter has also become a social activism tool for socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Death and Taxes 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ One of the best graphical representations of the outrageous military-related spending in the USA (Wallstats).
&#34;Death and Taxes:2009&#34; is a representational poster of the federal discretionary budget; the amount of money that is spent at the discretion of your elected representatives in Congress. Basically, your federal income taxes. The data is from the President&#8217;s budget [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gears of War 2 leaked</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ I recall someone saying that Gears of War 2 wasn&#8217;t going to be released on the PC platform because of &#34;PIRACY&#34;. Now, this serves you right (TEAMXBOX, VE3D, RLSLOG). It&#8217;s even on Pirate Bay.
With so many users getting the game so early, it shouldn&#8217;t come as a surprise that a pirated copy of Gears [...]]]></description>

		<title>Perspectives on the US election</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ As a Swedish citizen highly critical of the USA, I&#8217;d thought I&#8217;d offer some perspectives on the US presidential election. It is a tad redundant but it had to be done.
The way I see it we come down to the same issue of military versus economic imperialism to borrow Chalmers Johnson&#8217;s terminology from &#34;Sorrows [...]]]></description>

&#34;kittenINFINITE explains what your rights are if you are a sex worker arrested on the job, and what you should and should not do when dealing with law enforcement. The SWOP-Chicago gang re-enact some commonly used police tactics in interrogation and how you should handle yourself in each situation.&#34; (BlipTV, Red Light District Chicago, Sex [...]]]></description>

		<title>Little Britain USA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ I just saw the first episode of Little Britain USA (imdb, hbo) and overall the show was hilarious and possibly even more offensive than usual. Despite some of the old and new characters being a little duller than expected. It&#8217;s the same absurd rollercoaster ride that we have come to expect though, going from [...]]]></description>
