		<title>Windows Media Center, OGM and MKV</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I&#8217;m setting up a HTPC (Home Theater PC), and a lot of my video files are in OGM or MKV because they tend to be of higher quality than most AVI. By default, of course, Windows Media Center (and Windows Media Player) will not play these types of files. In order to remedy that, [...]]]></description>

		<title>User Deletion, iPhone Friendly, Facebook Updates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A number of changes today. I deleted all the users that appeared to be spam users (which was all of them). I added a plugin that enabled a special skin to be used for smartphones (particularly the iPhone). I also added a plugin that will post to facebook when I&#8217;ve made a new post here.]]></description>

		<title>Automatically Run and Minimize iTunes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, more people now are having servers at home, which they&#8217;re using to run iTunes and stream to various speakers plugged into Airport Express routers. Myself included. I noted that iTunes does not abide by the &#8220;run minimized&#8221; functionality in Windows, and some googling produced a VBScript that would run and minimize iTunes. Unfortunately, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lunarpages Name Server Spoof</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So it looks like sometime yesterday morning, the Lunarpages name servers in Vegas were spoofed and many of the websites hosted by Lunarpages were being redirected all over the place. It seems to be mostly fixed now, but there appears to be some propagation issues still, at least with the Comcast &#8220;domain helper&#8221; DNS servers. [...]]]></description>

		<title>WordPress Blog Hijackings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve noticed that mine and other WordPress based blogs have been hijacked by someone injecting some script into the header.php of the template.  It forces the blog to redirect to other websites after a few seconds.  I think I&#8217;ve temporarily fixed it for now, and am in the process of plugging up the security hole.]]></description>

		<title>Of Rings and Other Things.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a silver ring with alchemical symbols on it.  It was given to me by a friend.  Not a whole lot of particular sentimental value really.  I haven&#8217;t seen that person in years nor did I know her very long.  But we were similar ilk, so she felt it necessary to give it to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mnemonics: Cross Product</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are two ways to multiply vectors.  One of these is the &#8220;cross product&#8221;.  The cross product always yields a third vector perpendicular to both of the two vectors, whose magnitude is equal to the area of the parallelogram defined by the two vectors. The cross product is defined as: A x B = [ [...]]]></description>

		<title>Finding (Steampunk) Stuff on eBay</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lizabeta tells us how she finds stuff on eBay, and while she gears it towards steampunk (which of course I love), her tips can be used to find just about anything. http://steampunkbitz.wordpress.com/2008/07/09/steampunk_resources/]]></description>

		<title>Learning About htaccess Files</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I learned about the htaccess file. The htaccess file is used to override default configuration of a web server. For example, many web servers will have a default file or files set as to be displayed when typing in a folder path. Usually this default file list consists of something like &#8220;index.html,index.htm,index.shtml&#8221;. In other [...]]]></description>
