		<description><![CDATA[How does a simple plate of grilled beef and hamburger get so complicated as to end up as Beef knitting combustion and hamburg steak?

Even with the inevitable disturbances to work that these problems cause, work—as life—must go on. And so, I left for China on Friday on a business trip that had been planned for several months.
