		<title>Is Apple starting to lose its &#8216;cool&#8217;?</title>

If you are unaware of what’s going on, here’s a quick recap:
Apple has decided to attempt to enforce patents that have allegedly been infringed upon by competitor HTC.  A little more in [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8216;Snowmageddon&#8217; or &#8216;Snowpocalypse&#8217;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve had enough of this ridiculous snow.&#160; There is no end in sight.&#160; At times like this, I feel that my emotions are best expressed by quoting lines from an early 90’s movie:
You want a prediction about the weather, you&#8217;re asking the wrong Phil. I&#8217;ll give you a winter prediction: It&#8217;s gonna be cold, it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>BBC News &#8211; Why do people vote&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BBC News – Why do people vote against their own interests?

The Republicans&#8217; shock victory in the election for the US Senate seat in Massachusetts meant the Democrats lost their supermajority in the Senate. This makes it even harder for the Obama administration to get healthcare reform passed in the US.

		<title>More than just a game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Ryan and I went to see the Harlem Globetrotters strut their stuff at the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown on Monday.
I had never seen the Globetrotters in person, but I’ve probably seen them do their routines on TV 50 times.&#160; I think what we saw on Monday was probably the same Globetrotter material they’ve performed for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Haiti Earthquake Relief</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the worst natural disasters in recent history struck Haiti on January 12, 2010.
From whitehouse.gov:
On January 12, 2010, a massive earthquake struck the nation of Haiti, causing catastrophic damage inside and around the capital city of Port-au-Prince. President Obama has promised the people of Haiti that &#8220;you will not be forsaken; you will not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Really, AT&amp;T?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I received this in my e-mail this afternoon:

Really, AT&#38;T? Just $9.99 per month? That’s it? Funny.  Google Voice provides this same service for free.  Of course, everything Google Voice provides is free.
You’d think, though, that for all the money I already give AT&#38;T each month, that they’d give me a little something extra once in [...]]]></description>

		<title>A new look</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, I’ve had enough of the snow.  So I decided to give the website a new look.  I had been toying around with a few different Wordpress themes but finally settled on Mystique by digitalnature.

		<title>Let It Snow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think we’ve just about finished digging out from the 16” of snow we’ve received since Friday night.
We’ve been in the house basically since late Friday night, but the kids (and the dog) wanted to go play in the snow on Saturday, so they did do that.
