		<title>Mush&#8217;s inefficacious speech</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Listening to him now on TV, in what some speculate he&#8217;ll resign and others he won&#8217;t, gives one a feeling of disgust.  It reveals only one thing:  he hasn&#8217;t learned a single lesson.  Economics is never a substitute for representative power.  Yet, like his predecessors Ayub, Yahya and Zia, this treasonous dictator believes you can [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sesquipedalian Vacation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The vacation in England is almost over.  Will be heading back home soon.  The lengthy stay was exceptionally peaceful and had mom been able to make it over here, and had I managed to finish my script, it would have been perfect.  As things stand, there is an element of nervousness about the future track [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Judges</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think the fast-paced access to information causes a lot of people to lose patience.  Like with the judges issue - everyday people are flip-flopping between pessimism and optimism.  Will Zardari scuttle everything?  Will he not?  What will PML-N do?  Can it afford to leave the government?
Zardari&#8217;s placed himself at [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wedding ceremonies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I did myself a favor and left a barat ceremony within one hour of arriving there.  People make many a million excuses to justify staying put for 6 hours, digesting delays and hunger.   It is at these wedding receptions more than anywhere else that time is made a mockery and devalued.  What joy people [...]]]></description>

		<title>Islamabad Trip</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Went well, though a bit disappointing.  The city has changed with a series of underpasses, under construction overpasses, and neat exits in a town still small enough to see them as a luxury.  But it&#8217;s preparing for the future.  There is a construction boom and cranes compete with the current scatter of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kerosene lamps are back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was an item that disappeared from the face of the planet long ago.
However, due to the past government&#8217;s sheer incompetence in forming an energy policy, the power cuts wrecking havoc today have brought the kerosene lamp back to the life.  They are available in all sorts of sizes and street vendors - particularly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Qayyum Settles for 15 Lacs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My local MPA&#8217;s college degree was challenged by his opponent only a few days before the initially scheduled elections of January 8th.  Fearing Musharaf-backed judges could potentially find a reason to dismiss the validity of the degree and thereby knock Rana Mubashir out of the PP-161 race, some of the backers, lead by Godfather, met [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are two of them.  One from the Afridi tribe and another from the &#8216;Hasanzai&#8217; tribe.  Latter I am told is a sub-tribe of the Yusufzais.
Have been reading alot about the Pathan tribes and their history is fascinating.  Just as it is with other books, while I was reading &#8220;The Pathans&#8221;, I came across a [...]]]></description>

		<title>CJ Released</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today seeing the chief justice wave to the crowds after being released from house-arrest was a heart warming site.  PTI workers were the most numerous with their flags to welcome the release of their chief justice.  The struggle isn&#8217;t over yet - there is still some ways before the judges are restored and the mechanism [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Happenin Saturday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Got up early, didn&#8217;t take a shower, wrote down a list of tasks for the day.  Completed them one by one beginning with the car&#8217;s oil change, tune-up, ignition check-up, followed by getting documents photocopied for the 2 week break, collecting bank statements from LSE (during which I also filled up another cc app), ordered [...]]]></description>
