		<title>Consume SOAP Webservices the Easy Way with JAX-WS and JRuby</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SOAP has a bad reputation in the Ruby community. Most Rubyists prefer Restful services because they are a lot easier to consume and are well supported in tools like Rails. However, there are times where you have to consume a SOAP based web service. In this article, I&#8217;ll show you how you can easily consume [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rails Development Environment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve experimented with different Rails development environments over the years. I started with an Emacs/shell based environment. Then switched to TextMate because I had a Mac and that seemed to be what all the cool kids were using. Then I switched to Netbeans because of it&#8217;s Rails support and the amount of Java development I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Down to the Metal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just spent a few days over at Pedal Brain programming (or trying to program) an MSP 430 Micro Controller. Embedded is hard but I think it&#8217;s worth trying if you are a coder. It&#8217;s kind of the essence of coding. Unlike most of the programming I&#8217;ve done, in embedded there is nothing between you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kinney/Murphy Annual Holiday Message</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Christmas Eve and we&#8217;re hanging out at home waiting for Santa. It&#8217;s been a busy year for our family. This was our first full year in our new house and Plymouth is now starting to feel like home. We love our neighborhood.

		<title>Sick of Virii? Get Linux.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve noticed a rash of Facebook based attempts to get you to install malware on your system. These strategies masquerade as a message from one of your friends that try to get you to click on a link that will then run a program on your system. Do you want to know a sure [...]]]></description>

		<title>GAE is Better than EC2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, my friend Josh got me interested in Google Application Engine. I&#8217;ve been building distributed applications for a number of years now and have always assumed that if I were deploying to a cloud platform, it would be on EC2 because of choice of operating systems, and support for environments that I know well like [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#955; + concurrency = evil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I ran into an awful bug in some JavaScript the other day that I thought I&#8217;d share as one more reason that non-functional programming languages are really awful in concurrent or asynchronous execution environments. Without further ado, here&#8217;s the code: function update_watchlist() { &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;var selected_instruments = $(&#039;div#instruments&#039;).data( &#039;selected_instruments&#039;); &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;for( var selected =&#160;&#160;0; selected &#60; selected_instruments.length; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Media Storage System</title>

I needed something with a bit of space to manage backups for all our family computers and it had be networked so I could set up cron jobs ( or a scheduled task for Audrey ) to automate the backup process and insure [...]]]></description>

		<title>Florida Fruitcake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The following is an excerpt from a Facebook conversation about a Gainseville, Florida preacher gaining world media attention by threatening to burn the Qur&#8217;an. I reposted it here because I think it highlights what can be great about media today. To be specific, I&#8217;m referring to how new media allows us to add depth to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do Be Do Be Do</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about why we do things. Not particular things mind you but things in general. Why do anything at all? Why think about why we do things? One might conclude that it&#8217;s inevitable that I write about being at this particular time and place if you believe as I do that [...]]]></description>
