		<title>Tango Pint Icon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been wanting to learn how to make icons that jive with the Tango guidelines for a while now. For my first icon I went with a good &#8216;ol pint of beer. The guidelines are fairly involved but I think I satisfied most of them. A thicker border may be in order but this one [...]]]></description>

		<title>Belgian Blond Ale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend I brewed up a 5 gallon batch of my first belgian style ale. This is an extract recipe with a small amount of specialty grains.
The BJCP describes this style as &#8220;A moderate-strength golden ale that has a subtle Belgian complexity, slightly sweet flavor, and dry finish.&#8221; 
I am eager to see how it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Easy Zebra Striping with Prototype</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While reviewing some of the JQuery tutorials, I was impressed with the ease of setting up a table with alternating row colors.
This got me thinking that it should be a relatively easy thing to achieve using the Prototype library as well. In this edition, I will give quick example of doing just that.
We&#8217;ll start by [...]]]></description>

		<title>CVS Shortcuts in Vim</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Vim is an incredibly flexible text editor. I continue to be surprised by the number of strange things it&#8217;s capable of doing. For example, there is a crude Tetris clone available for Vim.
A bit more useful, though, is the cvsmenu script for Vim. This is a fairly polished plug-in that will allow you to do [...]]]></description>

		<title>socialthing! and Prism on Ubuntu</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A recent article on the socialthing! blog made me curious about setting up a site specific browser in Ubuntu.

This is a pretty simple thing to accomplish and it beats the heck out of the currently available Ubuntu twitter clients.
Start by installing the prism package.
sudo aptitude install prism
You can then setup a new application by starting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Code Duplication</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A while ago I fixed some obscure bugs in one of the search results pages of an enterprise application that I work on. I spent about four hours of focused development time refactoring and cleaning up some of the logic that handles the rendering and paging of the results. The new code worked well.
A couple [...]]]></description>

		<title>Time Based Releases</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was just reading the Ubuntu development process documentation. In particular the document on Time Based Releases.
I think they really hit the nail on the head with this one. This quote caught my attention:
The overall quality and punctuality of an Ubuntu release are more important than any single feature, and a high-quality feature is superior [...]]]></description>

		<title>Home-Brew Batch #2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just finished my second batch of home-brew. This one was a Porter that turned out to be pretty delicious.
I&#8217;ve posted a few pictures. And for those who are interested, I&#8217;ve also posted the recipe.

		<title>Guest Post: Eclipse 3.3.2 and DBEdit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, Eclipse told me it had updates (3.3.2) available.  For the
next three days I got 404/503 errors from the mirror sites it tried to
use.  I finally got it updated today and learned that they fixed
whatever was keeping DBEdit from working.  So if Eclipse&#8217;s Database
Development views annoy you as much as me, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gutsy and the GeForce2 MX/MX 400</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have had quite a tough time trying to get my ancient nvidia graphics card to work to it&#8217;s full potential after upgrading to Gutsy. My graphics card as reported by lspci is:
 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)
After trying to use the &#8216;Screen and Graphics Preference&#8217; utility, I [...]]]></description>
