		<description><![CDATA[Last Sat. we went cherry picking with family and friends in East Wenatchee. It was a long drive in a hot day with a large group (20 some people including babies and grannies). By the time it was over, everyone felt exhausted.
But it was a beautiful drive. We took highway-2, which largely followed river valleys [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been following what&#8217;s happening in 瓮安 for several days. It is fascinating for the following reasons:
1. What makes a story explosive?
2. How efficient and effective the Net police is
3. The common damage control technique by the Chinese government
The most comprehensive and the closest to the event can be found here: http://xinwenshe.blogspot.com/ (see postings [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is my first post after upgrading to WP 2.5.1
Liked the WYSIWYG editor feature. The tags may help too.
Still have one problem: search result from Google still points to my home page but not individual blog entry. Not sure how to fix that yet.
I am caught between Search-friendly and useability.

		<description><![CDATA[Jon Lee Anderson: Fidel’s Heir
Just after I finished Arendt&#8217;s Origins of Totalitarianism, I came upon Anderson&#8217;s &#8220;extremely short&#8221; essay about Hugo Chávez. Convinced me more of my criticism of Arendt: in pursuit of an answer to the Holocaust, she stretched extreme instances of popular demagogy into &#8220;Totalitarianism&#8221;.
Chávez&#8217;s Venezuela is arguably at a midway point in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Book: The Origins of Totalitarianism
To put it harshly, The Origins of Totalitarianism is more like a political manifesto than a scientific thesis. The locus of Arendt&#8217;s work is the Holocaust hence the applicability and reasoning are rather questionable.
Arendt is not just any Jewish survivor. A student and a lover of the preeminent 20th century philosopher, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During the oral defense of my paper, Prof. Chirot asked a question he&#8217;d asked us before, &#8220;would you call the nationalist sentiments in China, Korea or Vietnam &#8216;nationalism&#8217;&#8221;? I thought I answered it rather well: nationalism in its purest form is a Western concept. I am leaning more toward Hans Kohn (&#8221;Idea of Nationalism&#8221;) and [...]]]></description>

It looks like a quiet movement is undergoing to reverse the course Greenspan set for the Fed. 
WSJ appears to be a more critical voice than the Economist in evaluating the Greenspan legacy. Not long ago, it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[滕王高阁临江渚，佩玉鸣鸾罢歌舞。画栋朝飞南浦云，珠帘暮卷西山雨。
闲云潭影日悠悠，物换星移几度秋。阁中帝子今何在？槛外长江空自流
细草微风岸，危樯独夜舟。星垂平野阔，月涌大江流。
名岂文章著，官因老病休。飘飘何所似，天地一沙鸥.

		<description><![CDATA[I have very mixed feelings about the papers I just finished. 
The first one, the coal mine paper, started in Christine Wong&#8217;s class. I was driven by the non-stop coal mine disasters. But never found a framework in CW&#8217;s class that I can fit the paper in. CW&#8217;s class is perhaps best for MPA students: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finally sent out the paper to the three advisors. Not completely happy with it but still thankful. Thought about adding a small paragrah in the end, just to say thanks. Not yet. I will add it to the final draft.
It has not been easy for the last several month. I can&#8217;t believe how difficult it [...]]]></description>
