		<description><![CDATA[What was to be a lazy Sunday turned out to be a fairly productive day after all. 
After watching a gripping thriller, I got to tinker around with a personal side project that has been lingering on the back-burner for far too long.
The result is a work-in-progress. Keyword: &#8220;Progress&#8221;. It&#8217;s certainly not finished, but at least it&#8217;s up and [...]<hr /><br /><strong>Copyright &copy; 2008 EricTurk.com - All rights reserved.<br /> Digital fingerprint: be1dd907c1d248e18163387c88995982 (38.103.63.59) </strong>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After my last post, I had some interesting conversations dealing with my strong dislike for email as a preferred communication channel.
I never really addressed the various issues that bug me most about email; mainly, because I figured they were somewhat self-evident. Alas, it turns out, they weren&#8217;t.

		<description><![CDATA[Drastic times call for drastic measures. Luckily, this is not one of those times. Yet.
But, it&#8217;s time to act and face facts.
Fact. Email communication is losing its usefulness at an alarming rate. For some, including myself, email is almost past the dead cat bounce.
Let me try to quantify my problem. On average, based on last [...]<hr /><br /><strong>Copyright &copy; 2008 EricTurk.com - All rights reserved.<br /> Digital fingerprint: be1dd907c1d248e18163387c88995982 (38.103.63.59) </strong>]]></description>

Many have tried to debunk its validity, but as far as I know no one has yet succeeded. Although, it appears some are steadily gaining ground:

Let&#8217;s wait and see.

Expectations have long been a topic of psychological research, and it&#8217;s well known that they affect how we react to events, or how we respond to medication. But in recent years, scientists have been intensively studying how expectations shape our direct experience of the world, what [...]<hr /><br /><strong>Copyright &copy; 2008 EricTurk.com - All rights reserved.<br /> Digital fingerprint: be1dd907c1d248e18163387c88995982 (38.103.63.59) </strong>]]></description>

Women tend to wear their hair long when Japan’s economy is doing well and short when there is a slump, the Nikkei business daily reported, citing a survey conducted by Japanese cosmetics company Kao Corp.
As for Japan’s future economic performance, the Nikkei pointed to expectations [...]<hr /><br /><strong>Copyright &copy; 2008 EricTurk.com - All rights reserved.<br /> Digital fingerprint: be1dd907c1d248e18163387c88995982 (38.103.63.59) </strong>]]></description>

Okay, so the concept isn&#8217;t exactly new (it has been covered and discussed in length). Unfortunately, or maybe ironically, I never had the time to really try it out for myself&#8230; until now.
