		<description><![CDATA[Last week, I did some reporting from a conference called Argentina Shale Oil and Tight Gas. No, they didn&#8217;t officially let me in (American Business Conferences apparently has good taste) but I managed to listen in on a few sessions and corner several oil executives too polite to tell me to go away. I&#8217;ll have&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By all accounts, 2011 was a chaotic year for Chilean politics. Rallies against a hydroelectric dam project and demonstrations for comprehensive education reform rocked the country for most of the year. Literally millions of people marched in the largest protests since the Pinochet years. There was even a cacerolazo! Smaller incidents have inflamed the left&#8230;]]></description>

Two Chilean films won awards: Violeta se fue a los cielos, which has been making the rounds rather loudly for awhile now, and one I&#8217;d never heard of, Joven &#38; Alocada.
