		<title>Cultural Identity (Part 2)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am imagining a club that has existed for generations. My parents&#8217; parents were members. My parents are members. The rules of the club are mystical and unfathomable to the un-initiate. They cannot be understood by the logical mind. The very idea of this club is based on shared history and faith. Now, I have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cultural Identity&#8230;Random Thoughts (Part 1)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I think about cultural identity, images of people in traditional African garb involved in some sort of ceremony immediately come to mind. These pictures are indicative of the associations that have been made in my mind around the concepts of culture and tradition. This particular set of images may be related to my particular [...]]]></description>

		<title>Climate Change in Africa: a ticking time-bomb</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;It&#8217;s called climate change and has only been exacerbated by the country&#8217;s state of unpreparedness&#8230;Do not tell us you didn&#8217;t know!&#8221; &#8211; Kenyan Nobel Peace laureate Wangari Maathai appeals to world leaders at the UN summit on climate change in New York. I can say this with some confidence&#8230;conditions in our world are changing; weather [...]]]></description>

		<title>Selflessness&#8230;it&#8217;s all in genes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In an earlier article, I explored the idea of Natural Selection and how the value of an individual could be an important factor in it&#8217;s survival in a group. What I didn&#8217;t mention was where this perspective fits into current views of science on evolution. As I understand it, there are essentially two angles; one [...]]]></description>

		<title>Natural Selection&#8230;A View</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The idea of Natural Selection is intriguing and, oddly, quite logical. It&#8217;s like a less ridiculous version of the TV Game Show Takeshi&#8217;s Castle. This show, in addition to being ludicrously funny, highlights some of the key concepts of this natural &#8211; if not completely accepted &#8211; phenomenon. Basically, you have a large group of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Genetic Engineering&#8230;is it worth it?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are times when we as human beings are forced to confront our feelings regarding major issues e.g. if Chelsea FC and Arsenal FC are to meet in the FA Cup Final, and I stand to make a reasonable amount of money on a Chelsea win; does my predisposition towards a Chelsea loss (which I [...]]]></description>

		<title>An ode to the iPhone&#8230;the greatest PDA/Phone/electric device thingy ever!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before I continue, I would like to clear up a few things. No, I don&#8217;t work for Apple (neither am I looking for a job with them). No, I have not been commissioned to do marketing for them (Hint, hint, Apple. I can be reached at donald@masteryourfate.com. Paypal donations accepted). I am just another professional [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Half-arsed view of risk&#8230;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[600 Americans die falling out of bed each year (Time Magazine, Nov 2006). I guess I&#8217;ll be sleeping in from now on&#8230; Seriously though, statistics like this belie the true facts. They can over-generalize and leave you with the wrong impression; in this case, the impression that trying to get out of bed can leave [...]]]></description>

		<title>Charity begins at home (DUH! Do your part)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I have found my thoughts unconsciously drifting to a subject that I have consciously avoided for most of my adult life&#8230;the suffering of others. I mean poverty in the third-world, poverty in Nigeria, since that&#8217;s where I&#8217;m from. I have realized that, up until now, my attitude towards this has been to ignore it [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Reference System (Part 2)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At age 5, Junior gets scolded by a stranger in a black hat (we&#8217;ll leave out the part where he nearly breaks the guy&#8217;s windscreen with his football &#8211; and I mean soccer). Perhaps the man has had a bad day, or maybe he&#8217;s just an angry, grumpy, fun-hating killjoy (which is well within his [...]]]></description>
