		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago as I was paddling across Purakanui inlet in a kayak – which was rapidly trying to become a submarine -  I passed a pleasant dad in a dingy rowing his two little daughters by the old boat sheds.  We chatted a bit, there on the water and it turned out that “Brian” and his family were from Christchurch.  Their house had been rendered uninhabitable by the earthquakes.  Some kind soul had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Damn Israel&#8221;. That&#8217;s what Turkish protesters have been yelling outside the Israeli consulate in Istanbul. Israel is accused of attacking a flotilla of vessels bringing aid to Gaza. Apparently 10,000 tonnes of aid was aboard. About 9 &#8220;activists&#8221; were killed in the incident. Like most other news emanating from any Israeli-Palestinian conflict &#8211; truth is the first casualty. Even a brief perusal of a number of news sources shows contradictory and confusing information. The Telegraph [...]]]></description>

The original can be found here on Saundra&#8217;s excellent blog Good Intentions Are Not Enough. Imagine that you&#8217;re at work when whatever natural disaster is most probable in your state strikes. For me it would be an earthquake, for you it might be a flood, volcanic eruption, or hurricane. The natural disaster has toppled telephone poles and cell phone towers, damaged roads, and collapsed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Disasters like the Haiti earthquake provide fertile ground for scammers to work their black magic. Such disasters and the ensuing media frenzy tug at people&#8217;s heartstrings and compel many towards wanting to help. With modern technology it&#8217;s not too hard to manipulate and take advantage of that desire only to use it for anything but helping. A perfect example is a Facebook application I have seen floating around called &#8220;Haiti Click donations&#8221; that seems to [...]]]></description>

Child trafficking in Haiti was already a problem with several NGO&#8217;s noting a sharp increase in the number of children being trafficked out of the country into the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas in 2008.

The comment from the infamous televangelist that has caused much furor in the media and around the internet can be viewed over on Youtube. In the clip, Pat Robertson makes a connection between Haiti’s poverty and suffering and a “pact with the devil” that was supposed to have taken place during the Haitian slave revolt in the 1790’s that removed them from under [...]]]></description>
