		<title>Nurse Jackie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I followed James Gandolfini and Edie Falco on The Sopranos for six seasons. Despite news about her battle with the bottle and the big C, I am still used to seeing Falco as Carmela Soprano, the all-Catholic, expensively dressed wife of Tony (Gandolfini) who has perfect hair and nails done regularly at a hefty cost. <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/nurse-jackie/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Role Playing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A lot of things have evolved since yesterday.  Change happens all the time, it would be safe to assume that nothing is here to stay for good. Let us take the work attire of our lovely Florence Nightingale.  She became the first physical stereotype of how a nurse should look like.  Over the years, the <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/role-playing/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Comfort In Various Forms</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was a little girl, the mere sight of scrubs on hospital staff creeps me out.  To me they are the physical representation of the death and disease that lingers in the air of the institution.  It was the complete opposite with others.  Lab coats and nursing uniforms spell comfort in ways beyond words. <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/comfort-in-various-forms/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

According to the Philippine president Arroyo, the relationship between the Philippines and the United States is stronger than ever, and US Ambassador to the Philippines Kristie Kenney agrees. <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/which-independence-day/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Passing A Federal Law</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We hear a lot of people complaining about how ineffective the government is because of the time it takes to pass a law. It has to go through (and be approved by) many people before it can even move up a level. What exactly is the process of getting your proposal turned into a law? <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/passing-a-federal-law/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>The Monarchy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Almost every little girl has dreamed of being a princess (I say almost because I wanted to be an astronaut and a singer/songwriter, not a princess, when I was young). As we grow older, we do not seem to lose our fascination for those who are members of the royal families around the world.

		<title>Grand Louvre</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re not an uneducated, impoverished person from a poverty- and war-torn country (actually as long as you have media access) then you know the Louvre Museum, or the Grand Louvre. It is the national museum of France and is the most visited museum in the world. And why not? It happens to house a <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/grand-louvre/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Choosing A Grill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Who loves cookouts, barbecue parties and just cooking good food in general? Then you&#8217;ve probably asked that crucial question: Which grill is good for me? While I may not be able to offer answers, I could give you some of the questions you need to ask when you&#8217;re about to go out and buy a <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/choosing-a-grill/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Caesar Salad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The caesar salad is the easiest salad to make, because it&#8217;s the most common that people make and it contains very common ingredients that can be found in any market across the world. Of course, though I&#8217;m a fan of make-your-own food, I still appreciate those pre-prepared things, so for the croutons just buy the <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/caesar-salad/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Barbecue Sauce</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I find most of the store-bought barbecue sauce way too salty, and so I like making a mix of my own barbecue sauce. I combine (and everything is eyeballed and taste-tested as I make it, so I don&#8217;t really have particular measurements) tomato sauce, soy sauce, a bit of Worcestershire sauce, crushed garlic, chopped white <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/barbecue-sauce/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Making Your Own Dip: Thousand Island Dip</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We all love it but we never know what is in it.  The name itself is a complete irony.  It does not have a thousand ingredients (Italian dressing has more) as some of the ignoramus believe.  If you ask me it is probably because of the thousand variations you can have of it.

		<title>Making Your Own Dip: Italian Dressing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes when a recipe has too many ingredients, most of us tend to think twice on trying to make it. Be not afraid of the lengthy list of ingredients, more often than not, all you have to do is toss them all together and wait.  One good example is the Italian dressing.

		<title>Making Your Own Dip: Honey-Mustard Dipping Sauce</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been searching for an easy honey-mustard dipping sauce.  Getting it in a bottle from the shop is convenient and saves you a lot of time but you cannot really play with the flavor plus you need to shell out extra dough. It is also definitely better to make your own so you know <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/making-your-own-dip-honey-mustard-dipping-sauce/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>New York Fries</title>
		<description><![CDATA[New York Fries (or simply NYF) is one of my favorite specialty joints.  Their fries are thickly cut, and believe it or not, they are healthy.  From their sunflower oil to their cheese and gravy, all are trans fat free. You have four options with your potatoes.  You can have the Classic Fries which are <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/new-york-fries/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Cry Me A River</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the songs I will be able to sing when I am in my deathbed is Justin Timberlake&#8217;s “Cry Me A River”.  It is most likely because of the very public controversy revolving around the song.  Though there is no official statement about the implications of the lyrics, it is obvious that it is <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/cry-me-a-river/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

She managed to rise to fame in just two years, with her first single entitled “Pon de Replay” in 2005.

		<title>One Tree Hill</title>

		<title>That Adorable Baritone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many women have a thing for rocker guys. I&#8217;m different in that I have a thing for guys who can sing really well and have voices that can make the hairs at the back of your neck just stand up. So when, in 2001, Josh Groban broke into the music scene and changed the face <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/that-adorable-baritone/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Hide And Seek</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was surfing YouTube and I saw this video from the 90&#8242;s that made me laugh and realize, “Yeah, the early 90&#8242;s was pretty much like that – like the late 80&#8242;s”.  It was Pajama Party&#8217;s “Hide and Seek”, and try to imagine the drums and very rhythmic beats, and of course, the lyrics.  The <a href="http://www.btads.co.uk/hide-and-seek/"> read more <span class="meta-nav">&#187;</span></a>]]></description>
