		<title>From the Kitchen #61</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a time long ago, there were two giants who both wanted to be in charge of all the people in the villages and on the farms and of all the creatures in the forests and on the plains.  Only one of the giants could be the boss.  They used to decide the issue by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[SAD, CFS, IBS, ADD, ADHD, ASD, CVD, BCC*, DVT*… some of the acronyms of modern health and its challenges.  Are they increasing in prevalence because of changing diets and changes in agricultural practices or are they a passing fad, a fashion? Having worked for sixteen years for the acronymous ACNEM*, dedicated to educating MDs* and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Living in a community is a complex undertaking.  It involves a balancing of private and public concerns.  There are some issues that are of concern to the community as a whole and some that are purely private. As a general proposition, parents should be left to get on with the care and upbringing of their [...]]]></description>

		<title>From the Kitchen #58</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I lie on the damp earth under a multi-hued canopy.  Sunlight plays around and over me, as do the many insects.  My clothing, derived form earth-sucking plants, again soaks moisture from the ground, but I can draw no physical nourishment from this. Like other animals, humans seem relatively inefficient in gathering what they need to [...]]]></description>

		<title>From the Kitchen #57</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love the changing seasons we experience in Melbourne.  I like change.  Change brings challenges and keeps me alert and alive. The extremes in temperature are temporary, unlike in London (where I lived for some years), where there can be ice on the footpaths and roads for weeks on end.  Here we have the odd, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reading is not always a pleasurable pursuit.  Recently I have been working through a number of books which are not entertaining but certainly worth the effort.  In fact, they are important books and the reading of them can lead to positive changes in our society. Ken Crispin’s The Pursuit of Justice (reviewed) is stimulating and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Bang! Pht-pht.”   Silence.  “Bang! Pht-pht.”   The dogs are trying out the new dog flap in the back door.  The last one was translucent and this one is clear, so it’s a new experience.  They follow each other in and out several times to make sure, then they get on with other dog games, like destroying [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Quest for Justice</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Quest for Justice Ken Crispin Scribe 2010 ISBN: 9781921640438 $35 290 pp + notes This is above all a thoughtful work.  The author assumes the reader to be intelligent and he treats the reader with respect.  It is not a dispassionate book – Ken Crispin’s hopes and aspirations for society are clearly stated.  He [...]]]></description>
