		<title>A Visit to the Italian Restaurant – September 2009 Pyongyang, North Korea</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Walter sent me this via E-Mail quite some time ago, and I think it is time to post it. Not only because it is interesting, but because I like this kind of thing. Enjoy!
With a degenerating itinerary our group of seven veterans of the DPRK lobbied the guides to take us to Pyongyang’s Italian Restaurant, [...]]]></description>

		<title>English translation of the DPRK constitution available</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Via NKEconWatch:
UPDATE 3: Northeast Asia Matters has posted a copy of the DPRK constitution in English.  Click here to read.
I have been looking for this for quite some time, and now it is available. Reading through it, not huge, groundbreaking changes were made, but enough to (what I guess) a legacy for Kim. Tim will [...]]]></description>

		<title>North Korean Oddities: Italian Food Restaurant</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(Hat Tip: Walter) I think it is about time to post another oddity. I have been looking for information on this Italian Food Restaurant in Pyongyang, and it seems somebody has the goods. Enjoy the pics first, then see the commentary after. (Original set here)

As promised on the Flickr page:

		<title>North Korea in Pictures: Some new resources</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A big thank you to Walter for the E-mail containing some really neat pictures and DPRK footage. There are so many pictures and goodies, I do not know where to begin to comment on some of them. After this posting, they will be added to the &#8220;North Korea in Pictures&#8221; section. Again, I appreciate the [...]]]></description>

		<title>North Korea News</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, it has been a while since I have been regularly posting news, and maybe today is a good day to start. Some news has come from North Korea, although nothing really earth-shattering.
North Korea May Be Open to Talks (New York Times) &#8211; In a chilling turn of events, Kim is willing to go back [...]]]></description>

		<title>The lyrics of Kim Jong Eun posted</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Alright, first things first. I found out from North Korean Economy Watch the name is Kim Jong Eun, not Kim Jong Un. This is important to know, and the correction is well-taken. The author of the post is rightfully reluctant to post things about the succession, because, (again rightfully so) is filled with speculation.
The song [...]]]></description>

		<title>Communism with a human face: Prague Spring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Here is something I did not really know about: Communism with a human face. I did some digging around to see what this was all about. While some may know all about this, I was kind of surprised and interested in reading more about it.
Any further insight and information from readers would be fantastic.
Since this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lankov: The Natural Death of North Korean Stalinism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is most likely most DPRK watchers know of Lankov&#8217;s work, and this PDF is probably no exception. This paper argues North Korea&#8217;s Stalinist style regime is falling apart, which is probably dead on. This also agrees with the bottom-up process of marketization, futile attempts at reforms, and a people more interested in survival rather [...]]]></description>

		<title>Daily NK: Jong Woon Overstepped His Bounds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Confirmations in North Korea is nearly non-existent, and even if there was a confirmation, it is usually smart to question that as well. Therefore, in the world of rumors regarding Kim Jong Un and his supposed role and/or authority in the Kim regime seem to be front and center? Granted, it is not so much [...]]]></description>

		<title>Betting on North Korea&#039;s debt load</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was looking up the status of North Korea&#8217;s debt, and to see how others rate the state. Then I ran into an interesting article about North Korean Debt Certificates. This thing is probably worth contemplating. As most North Korea watchers know, North Korea&#8217;s debt defaulted quite a while ago, and some of the debt [...]]]></description>
