		<description><![CDATA[Let me begin by saying that I know killing people is wrong. And bad. I hardly ever do it. But no one who is human can claim to never having felt that dark impulse. However, watching people being killed in films or in video games is good for you. Studies show that it promotes gum [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve seen Hugo, the Martin Scorcese-directed adaptation of Brian Selznick&#8217;s marvelous children&#8217;s book The Invention of Hugo Cabret, you&#8217;re already familiar with the 18th century passion for automations: mechanical wonders that mimicked the behaviors of dancers, magicians, circus acrobats, fortune tellers and more. They were far more than children&#8217;s wind-up toys. These automatons were clockwork [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 2011, Mexico City held the world&#8217;s largest zombie walk with 9,860 registered marchers. The event was held, in part, to collect donations for a local food bank. This broke the previous record set in Asbury Park, NJ in 2010 where they gathered 4.093 zombies. I&#8217;ve written about Zombie Walks before. Now here&#8217;s an infographic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For many years I&#8217;ve been fascinated by workings (and failings) of human memory. If not for the continuous autobiographic stream of our memories, how would we know who we are?  Can we always rely on our memories to be an accurate record of our past?

Alright, maybe something minimal like a jester collar with bells but anything more elaborate than that always convinces me that the dog in question is uncomfortable and embarrassed for its owner&#8217;s lack of taste.
