		<title>Staging/Production switch for RIT websites</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I use this blog as a way for me to store tips and hints that are helpful to me in a place where I can always find them.  My general feeling is that, if its useful to me, it might be useful to someone else, too, so I publish it.  This is [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Conedom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The recent Daily Show coverage of Rochester and the Toy Hall of Fame made me think of this classic story, also from Rochester.

It&#8217;s weird seeing the old local new coverage at the end, too.  Channel 13&#8217;s old set looks so ancient compared with the one they have now.

		<title>Jon Stewart Looks at Children&#8217;s Things in his Windowless News Van</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jon Stewart lambasted the Strong Museum of Play&#8217;s Toy Hall of Fame on The Daily Show last night for taking 11 years to induct the ball.  We Rochesterians evidently have our heads stuck in our Garbage Plates.

		<title>Apparently you can get there from here&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of our students in the lab mentioned today that Google Maps provides &#8220;driving&#8221; directions to Hawaii.  My ADD kicked in and I, of course, had to try it out for myself.  A search from Rochester to Honolulu gives me clear directions from somewhere on Main Street in Rochester to Beretania Street in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Post Number 100</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I was doing some long-needed work on this blog, I noticed that the last post I made was number 99.  So I decided I needed to post a celebratory 100th post.
The first post on this blog occurred on July 18, 2003.  That means I&#8217;ve been blogging for just under 6 years.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making Ubuntu &#8220;Pretty&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I started college, I&#8217;ve been a fan of Linux, at least for servers.  The basic multiuser setup of the Unix environment (from which Linux is designed) has numerous advantages in a server environment and using Apache for web hosting allows for a lot more flexibility than most Windows-based hosting solutions.
When it comes to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Welcome Back tayhouse.org</title>

Through my work, the troop was able to develop a new communications mechanism and gained highly favorable search engine placements rather quickly.  We got lots [...]]]></description>

		<title>Discovering MODx</title>

I am not, however, a [...]]]></description>

Even though the upgrade process has always been fairly simple and has never given me problems in the past, its manual nature always leads me to put it off until that utopic period of free time I am always [...]]]></description>

		<title>Say Goodnight Gracie</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A pretty major event occurred at RIT on Monday, but hardly anyone probably noticed.  It wasn&#8217;t marked by any sort of fanfare or celebration, just a simple email that popped up on my screen saying &#8220;Mike Young has completed a PCR.&#8221;  And with that the &#8220;Grace&#8221; web server was retired.
Anyone who&#8217;s spent any [...]]]></description>

And what a disappointment that was.  While I&#8217;m used to Java apps being slow, since getting Core 2 Duo Windows [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chainable YUI?</title>

While I haven&#8217;t yet delved into the new package myself, it looks as though the new YUI will follow on the footsteps on other JavaScript packages like jQuery instead of following its own namespaced model.

		<title>Lakers Miss Flight to Boston</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Evidently the L.A. Lakers missed their flight to Boston the other day because they simply weren&#8217;t there for game six last night&#8230;final score 131-92!  The Celtics site is now referring to the game as the &#8220;Boston Masacre.&#8221;
Congratulations Celtics&#8230;I had been waiting since I was nine years old for last night.

The Thirsty Moose Pub &#038; Grub, better known around Massawepie circles as Outpost Dumas&#8217; (&#8220;OPD&#8221; for short) is up for sale on Ebay.  Mickey and Jan evidently want to retire.
