		<title>Investing during an economic slump</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was reading an article by Alex Berenson titled &#8220;Those With a Sense of History May Find It’s Time to Invest&#8221; and it felt like déjà vu. We were on our way to Dapitan yesterday and we passed by an unfinished condominium project in San Juan. Huge project but it appeared abandoned. Speedy&#8217;s familiar with [...]]]></description>

		<title>The future (vice) president of the Philippines?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a true story.
There&#8217;s this girl, a high school junior, whom I&#8217;ll call Anita. She was a candidate for Vice President in the student government and she won by a slim two-vote victory. She won.

		<description><![CDATA[Because I so hate doing the Christmas shopping in malls and ending up buying the same old things, I considered whether it would be more practical to shop at eBay.

		<title>Playing with dolls can be educational</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When Sam and Alex were young, I did not encourage them to play with dolls. It&#8217;s just such a stereotype &#8212; as though telling girls that they have no future but taking care of babies. I encouraged puzzles. 3D puzzles like building blocks, including Lego. Jigsaw puzzles. And art. And, yes, interactive computer games including [...]]]></description>
