		<title>Now That’s A Map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
With every rational North Korean and self-respecting missile sneaking out of the DPRK these days, and every other naive outsider sneaking in, including Pyrodes (look here for some pics and video), we thought it a good time to learn a bit about the geography of this reclusive state. And we found just the site to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Diamond Downlow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
They are the rare corners of the world, those unique locales where high society meets abject poverty, where international corporations co-mingle with local corruption, and where your next marriage proposal just might lay covered in 5 meters of mud. They are the ever-shrinking diamond mines of the world, each with their own story, quirks, dangers, [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Sandy Beaches of Central Asia: Lake Issyk-Kul</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In these, the days of swine flu, economic collapse, and impromptu  Air Force One bombing raids, there appears to be a lot of worry about, so Pyrodes encourages you to get away from it all, way-way away from it all, to the isolated, yet beautiful beaches of Mexico Kyrgyzstan.  Lake Issyk-Kul, to be specific, is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Area 51: The Roadtrip You Never Thought Possible</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It is a place that has long grabbed the imagination of the public. It is where aliens hang out, the planes of the future buzz the mountains, and government conspiracies are a regular topic for the breakfast table. Yes, Pyrodes would like to turn your attention to that military base from the movies and America&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>CONGO: Tourism Redefined</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


Pyrodes is proud to take you, with help from our friends at Luggage.com, to Africa for the first time on this site. And, as is appropriate, we aren&#8217;t starting with any run of the mill African nation. No, Pyrodes thinks it fitting to go right to one of the most abused, yet most rewarding and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mexico: Mountains, Margaritas, and….Bass?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Tourism in Mexico has many faces. Whether it is the beaches of Cancun, the bars of Tiajuana, or the historical sites of Mexico City, there is much to see and do, yet most of it is overshadowed these days by the face of this guy crawling around on a bridge. So, in celebration of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sitting at the Edge of Time: The Diomedes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Diomede Islands are a place of contrast unlike any on earth. The small sliver of water between these two tiny islands, which sit in the middle of the Bearing Sea, is the precise point at which the Eastern Hemisphere meets the Western Hemisphere, where America meets Russia, and where today meets tomorrow at the all powerful international [...]]]></description>

		<title>If the World Could Vote….</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The World is about to enter a week of unprecedented election fever and fanfare as the US finally ends its three year selection process/fundraiser for president. Even though only a fraction of the world gets a vote, every other Tom, Dick, and Harry around the globe still has their own opinion. The Economist has figured [...]]]></description>
