		<description><![CDATA[In the story &#8220;Hills Like White Elephants,&#8221; Ernest Hemingway narrates from the objective point-of-view.  This very limited technique forces the author to look to other writing elements to define his characters.

		<description><![CDATA[This evening I&#8217;m thinking about some of my favorite classical music.  What makes the music most interesting to me is the story behind them&#8230;

The first piece is &#8220;Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini&#8221; by Sergi Rachmaninoff. The piece is a set of 24 variations on the twenty-fourth and last of Niccolo Paganini&#8217;s Caprices for [...]]]></description>

Although I really wasn&#8217;t interested in any kind of farewell ceremony, my colleagues put together a little lunch and made some presentations.
