		<description><![CDATA[This piece was originally written 5 June 2006, when legislation was being considered to make ethnic Hawaiians a &#8220;protected group.&#8221;  The whole business of protected groups is very much still with us in American life and politics. Back in the early 1980&#8242;s, our family business had an ongoing business relationship with the People&#8217;s Republic of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This was actually my first blog article, posted 14 April 2005. After a hiatus, this past spring I found myself back teaching Civil Engineering at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. This is an activity I find professionally and personally satisfying, if not financially. During the hiatus, the campus had made some major technological changes. [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been predicting this kind of thing since before the election.  I&#8217;ve also observed that, as President, Barack Obama is caught in the middle on this.  As a liberal, putting these people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the enduring fixtures of American politics is that elections are largely decided by a relatively small group of &#8220;independent&#8221; voters in the centre. Or at least that&#8217;s where we think they are. One of the great principles that such voters will enunciate is that they &#8220;vote for the man (and when called upon [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Somehow we&#8217;re getting a bad case of &#8220;deja vu all over again&#8221; in the proposal to restrict Episcopal churches to simply bless people rather than actually marry them. This, of coure, is the usual practice in Europe. We still think that the long-term objective of many gay rights activists&#8211;inside and outside of the Episcopal Church&#8211;is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although the press covers it as if it&#8217;s a total shock, North Korea&#8217;s nuclear test is anticlimactic. Everybody&#8211;well, almost&#8211;knew they were working on nuclear weaponry. Now it&#8217;s official. The main loser in this blast is South Korea, and not just for the obvious reason. They have been obsessed with reconciling themselves with their northern bretheren [...]]]></description>
