		<title>CARE: Self-defeating Sex Offender Laws</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have posted before on sex-offender laws, and the issue was reopened for me by an article from the Economist. Below are the high points, though I highly recommend the whole article. Again, our American-style of harsh penalties and zero-tolerance clauses is resulting in not only an unforgiving national culture, but perhaps, and more importantly, [...]]]></description>

		<title>CARE: Killing the Innocent</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since 1976 (when the Supreme Court reversed its 1972 decision to ban the death penalty in the US), there have been &#8220;more than a hundred and thirty people on death row have been exonerated.&#8221; There are heinous crimes for which I would have a hard time arguing against the death penalty (I doubt you will [...]]]></description>

		<title>HOPE: Africa &#8211; Most Improved Award</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This recent quote from MR: About 10 percent of infants die in their first year of life in Africa &#8212; still shockingly high, but considerably lower than the European average less than 100 years ago, let alone 800 years past. And about two thirds of Africans are literate &#8212; a level achieved in Spain only [...]]]></description>

		<title>HOPE: Going Solar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This map represents the percentage of land area needed to completely power the world using solar energy in 2030. As it notes, obviously is wouldn&#8217;t be in one large chunk as depicted but could be broken up if placed in comparable areas. This makes me think of a recent Ted talk (if you haven&#8217;t checked [...]]]></description>

		<title>HOPE: Choosing something other than default</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I rarely, if ever, save a copy of an article to my computer as I trust the great benevolent Internet to store and make searchable anything I would ever need in the future. But I simply cannot take a gamble with something so precious and beautiful and this commencement speech given my David Foster Wallace. [...]]]></description>

		<title>HOPE: An African Einstein</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Srinivasa Ramanujan was born in extreme poverty in India. At the age of 10 he showed a propensity for mathematics, by 13 he had mastered advanced trigonometry, by 17 he was conducting his own research. He discovered over 3,900 results, some of which are used in string theory today. Alex Tabarrok asks, in a recent [...]]]></description>

		<title>HOPE: What is your prediction?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Alex Tabarrok, in this great Ted talk, points out what optimism might have meant coming out of the great depression, and how we blew those expectations to pieces. Do you think we can do it again coming out of the longest, deepest recession since then? I am hopeful.]]></description>

		<title>HELP: Donating $10 could save 33 lives</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While I increasingly believe that it will be the growth of markets in Africa that will help them turn the corner, some diasters are so awful and treatments so cheap that it seems impossible not to want to help. A recent Times article, and accompanying photo essay, tell the story of cheap 20mg zinc tablets, [...]]]></description>
