		<title>Synology&#8230; one day I will buy thee</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been in the market for a NAS for quite some time now. Something about this video:

Makes me think I should consider one of Synology&#8217;s NAS&#8217;.

		<title>Mouseterpiece Theatre</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well&#8230; Mouseterpiece Theatre is not as embarrassing as this video, but it does make me question if I am spending my time wisely. Still, it was fun, and frankly, kinda neat. Watch the video below:

What exactly is it a video of (you might ask)? A video of our local office mouse. Don&#8217;t feed your mouse [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPhone &#8212; run apps from the shell</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, though this isn&#8217;t a startling discovery, I found out you can start up any of the GUI apps just by running them from a commandline while ssh&#8217;d into the iPhone. Just follow these instructions to install ssh, then run bash. With bash running, just cd to a directory:
# cd /Applications/Calculator.app
and run the program:
# Calculator
There [...]]]></description>

		<title>Evil Dead 2 Prop - a web exclusive*!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here it is &#8212; a first-time look at a prop used on Evil Dead II. The &#8220;prop&#8221;, as it were, is simply a piece of foam painted, gouged, and weathered to make it look like Egyptian stonework. While in real life it looks like a piece of foam, in the movie I&#8217;m sure it has [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making an Apple Red</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was asked to repair a laptop of a co-workers &#8212; the screen was cracked. It was for a 15” PowerBook G4, the aluminum variety. I had had prior experience with this sort of surgery, having replaced a hinge on my Powerbook G4, the titanium varietly. However, that surgery didn’t go nearly as well, since [...]]]></description>

		<title>Motorola Motofone F3 &#8212; Nice Phone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I posted earlier, I disassembled my European version of the Motofone. However, someone on the net was kind enough to send me a Motofone from Mexico (which I paid for). After having outfitted it with a T-mobile card, enough minutes to last me through the year, and some electricity (for the battery, of course), [...]]]></description>

		<title>Motorola Motofone F3 Dissassembly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sorry for ANY confusion - I bought a 900 Mhz GSM phone, which will NOT work in the USA. My post below had the wrong number in it (now corrected). Sorry!
The Motofone F3&#8212;a beautifully designed phone. Sadly, the only version of the Motofone available on eBay is a 900/1800 dual band phone, which does not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jenn-Air S125 Schematics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve attached a scan of the electrical schematics from a Jenn-Air S125. I had to do some troubleshooting on the heater coils (they register 100V when the switch is set to &#8220;off&#8221;), and decided to archive this for future use. I figure someone out there might find it helpful as well, so enjoy.

		<title>Another photo for another contest I won&#8217;t win</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, this is the photo I submitted to an Engadget contest:

I like it, but I doubt it is comparable to what others submitted.
