		<title>Food Buffet Regulation Needed!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s face it, when you go to a buffet you can over eat &#8211; as a matter of fact you&#8217;re encouraged to! Just take a look at this sign from a local buffet (one I just overate at) reminding you to &#8220;Keep eating, There&#8217;s WAY more where that came from&#8220;.  The waitress was no help, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ban All Email!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thierry Breton, CEO of Atos (one of Europe&#8217;s largest information technology services companies), is going to ban his staff from sending each other emails. He said it&#8217;s a waste of time and outdated form of communication. Apparently he wants this new  &#8220;zero email&#8221; policy to be in place within as early as 18 months! He [...]]]></description>

		<title>How Espresso Trained Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In 2003 I found myself in the job market (not by choice) and rethinking my career options. I decided to take my passion for coffee up a notch and learn about roasting, espresso preparation, and small retail business. At the end of the day I decided to stay an IT guy, but I became significantly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Going 100% Digital &#8211; But what about the NOTEPAD?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been on a journey to migrate my &#8220;stuff&#8221; to digital &#8211; and most recently to the cloud. My last holdout was the trusted journal/notebook. I think I&#8217;ve turned the corner here and will share story from my new iPad notebook (forgive the handwriting, it&#8217;s never been my strength). If you&#8217;ve been considering the same [...]]]></description>

		<title>Announcing the Americola</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What happens when Americano meets soda? Americola of course. I invented the name, I don&#8217;t think anyone else is dumb enough to try this &#8211; or at least admit they did. My idea was that if iced coffee is great, carbonation could only make it better! I started with 4 shots of espresso, iced it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vac Pot Coffee</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For Christmas my wife got me a &#8220;coffee gift&#8221; as she likes to call them. I&#8217;ve been wanting to play with a vacuum or &#8220;syphon&#8221; pot for years but my collection of brewing and roasting equipment (and supplies) has been &#8220;sufficient&#8221; (well probably). Hobbyists never can never have enough right? There are quite a few [...]]]></description>

		<title>Google Web Elements</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yet another nifty thing for small websites from Google. Web Elements let you magically weave in content to your site with carefully crafted iframed widgets. I&#8217;ve used the search/news widget on several sites and it works great! Anywhere you can embed some HTML you can use these widget. Read More and Try it out]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m Voting Against Puppies and for Guns in Schools</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not really. I get an average of five election phone calls a day and over half a dozen letters in the mail (nice big color ones). Most all of them are negative, but I&#8217;ve learned a new trick to figure out what people are for based on the bashing. One fiscal conservative I plan to [...]]]></description>
