		<title>Celtics Win (Big)!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Congratulations to the Boston Celtics (including Louisville native and University of Kentucky alumnus Rajon Rondo with 21 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 6 steals) on their huge win earlier tonight against the L.A. Lakers to clinch the 2008 NBA Finals.  They&#8217;ve had a heck of a season and a heck of a playoffs, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Configure Apache, Shoot Foot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Shortly after the big server rebuild a few weeks back I was examining the web server logs and I noticed that several sites were stealing okcomputer.org bandwidth by linking images from the okcomputer.org Photo Gallery directly into their web sites.  This is just a tacky thing to do on numerous levels.  In the [...]]]></description>

		<title>WRT54G vs WRE54G</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remember a few weeks ago when I was having all the wireless troubles?  The problem seemed to go away for a bit, and then WHAMMO!  It bit me again recently&#8230;again when I was downstairs in the living room.
Jessica heard me crying about it and mentioned that she had been having the same problem for the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Escape from mod_rewrite!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve spent the last few days investigating Plone as a potential replacement for WordPress for the okcomputer.org web site, but, as is frequently the case when experimenting with new technology around here, I&#8217;ve been beating my head against the wall trying to get my Plone installation to work behind an Apache proxy.  I could [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Great Photo Salvage</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After the filesystem crash back in October I had 11 gigabytes worth of files without meaningful names just sitting in a lost+found directory.  I was forced to come up with some creative ways to salvage data.
$ find lost+found/ -type f &#124; wc -l
79370
$ du -sh lost+found/
11G&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; lost+found/
One of the first things I thought people [...]]]></description>

		<title>Easy, Empty Gravatars</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For some unknown reason, I got vaguely interested in Gravatars this week.  I&#8217;ll spare you the Google search &#8212; Gravatars are Globally Recognized Avatars.  (And for you total lame-os, avatars are the little pictures next to people&#8217;s names in some forums and blog comments.)  The idea is that you upload your avatars [...]]]></description>

		<title>Shredding Serenity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All okcomputer.org services and accounts have been migrated to the new okcomputer.org server, firefly, for a couple of weeks now, so today I started work on decommissioning the old server, serenity.  Normally I&#8217;d wipe the disks like so:
# dd infile=/dev/urandom outfile=/dev/hda1
But that has been complicated by the annoying fact that the hosting company built [...]]]></description>

		<title>Disabling Trackbacks the Hard Way</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Kid Amnesiac, Jessica&#8217;s blog about Simon, has always been cursed with lots of comment spam, which I had never really bothered to investigate. It was easier to simply mark the offending comments as spam every time I logged in and move on, especially since the spam comments always required moderation and never actually made it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Network Manager vs Keyring Manager</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I decided to use some of my rolled-over vacation days this week and give myself a four-day weekend.  It&#8217;s been nice, and I&#8217;ve crossed a few items off my tasklist: rebuilt the okcomputer.org CA, put new tires on the car, installed DD-WRT on my Linksys WRT54G wireless router.
Things were humming  along until about [...]]]></description>

		<title>First Contact Winner!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So ever since I pushed the new matthewwhitworth.com site into production Jessica has been bugging me about whether or not it was getting any hits.  Although I kept telling her that I was giving it time and didn&#8217;t expect anything for quite a while, I was actually checking the web server logs much more [...]]]></description>
