		<title>Lisa Simeone&#8217;s Firing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My fellow public broadcaster Lisa Simeone will no longer host the public radio documentary show Soundprint because she was a leader of and spokesperson for the Occupy DC movement. The AP is reporting that she was fired; Soundprint itself implies that the decision was mutual (check the link above).
On one hand, I can see why. [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Gift of Music</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Your new friend gives you something. He gives you a record. It isn’t his &#8212; it’s his older brother’s. But that’s okay, because the older brother’s away. 
The record doesn’t make you sing like the records you’ve loved so far. It actually kind of makes you uncomfortable. But it also makes you want to  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Californian</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why do UK journalists insist on treating California differently? What I mean is that Google, e.g., is typically referred to by the BBC and Guardian as a &#8220;Californian company&#8221;. New York Life is not a &#8220;New Yorker company&#8221;, and Wrigley isn&#8217;t an &#8220;Illinoisan company&#8221;. Thank God that Eli Lilly isn&#8217;t a &#8220;Hoosier company&#8221;.

		<title>Songs I Realized Today that I Like 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a problem with bands that become critics&#8217; darlings before I&#8217;ve fallen in love with them: I tend to disdain and ignore them. I did that with Vampire Weekend, and Campus has convinced me I was a fool, as I usually am when I do this.

&#8220;Down We Go&#8221;, Kepi Ghoulie (from American Gothic) (seemingly no linky)
