During the  Babangida dictatorship, Gani, the Senior Advocate of Nigeria, and Senior Advocate of the Masses, took on the  dictator head-on like other well-meaning Nigerians. The battle between good and evil which Gani and IBB  represented (with the evil genius representing evil, of course) was a running one, with the uncompromising  Fawehinmi suffering harrasments, arrest, and being thrown into Gashua Prison in Borno State, where he languished  in jail for months on end.   </description>  </item>     <item>  <title>Oh, Joy, I Got My Brazilian Visa!</title>   <link>http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/07jun/article080.html</link>  <description>  By Thomas Keyes   <br />   Monday I cabbed over to the Embaixada do Brasil, at Avenida Jose Pardo #850, in the elegant Miraflores district,  here in Lima, Peru, to apply for a 90-day tourist visa for Brazil.  For some reason, Brazil requires that you  obtain a consular visa before you enter the country; you don't just show up at the border, as you may in  Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay.  The application explains that this is a reciprocal  procedure, since the US charges Brazilians a $100 fee.  So what is so special about Brazil, along with Paraguay?  </description>  </item>     <item>  <title>American Dreamz</title>   <link>http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/07jun/article079.html</link>  <description>  By Michelle Malsbury   <br />   Last evening I had opportunity to view the hilariously funny political satire by the name of American Dreamz on  HBO. Filmmaker Paul Weitz is not new to directing comedy, as he also directed the movies About a Boy, In Good  Company, and American Pie. I suggest that everyone -- regardless of political affiliation -- who is interested  in a little fun and games watch this movie that pokes fun at Washington and the leaders of our country. Curious?  You can purchase the DVD right here for a scant $10.99.   </description>  </item>     <item>  <title>The Aruba Publicity Machine</title>   <link>http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/uk_news/article175.html</link>  <description>  By Patrick Hurley   <br />   Chief Dompig is living up to the second syllable in his name.   </description>  </item> <item>  <title>Is Anyone Surprised By The Abdul Rahman Case?</title>   <link>http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/uk_news/article174.html</link>  <description>  By Craig Chamberlain   <br />   Abdul Rahman, an Afghan who converted to Christianity 16 years ago, is possibly facing execution for the crime of apostasy.   </description>  </item> <item>  <title>Youth Courts Gaining In Popularity</title>   <link>http://www.useless-knowledge.com/1234/uk_news/article173.html</link>  <description>  By Timothy N.
