		<description><![CDATA[
I went to Indian Rock yesterday with a few friends and saw that someone had setup top-ropes on the back side. After checking out the anchor configuration and the condition of the rope, I stupidly decided that it&#8217;d be fun to prusik up one of the ropes. I normally don&#8217;t bring my climbing harness with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many of my friends have been raving about Pinkberry, a new chain of stylish frozen yogurt stores in New York and Southern California. Don&#8217;t worry if you haven&#8217;t heard about them; they only have a handful of locations and seem to rely upon word of mouth for advertising.  That&#8217;s not to say that they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just upgraded one of my home computers to Microsoft Windows Vista Business and discovered that my Canon PowerShot G2 camera was unsupported. I hadn&#8217;t bothered to check whether my camera was supported; it seems most digital camera drivers are just glorified USB Mass Storage wrappers and support for those is generally a given.
Unfortunately, Canon&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Preparation was simple: thaw the fish, pat it dry, and give it a generous rub of sesame seeds, chili powder, and lime dust. Place a pan on your stove&#8217;s most powerful burner, get it red hot, and gently sear the fish for no more than a couple minutes on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anyone who has ever worked on an engineering project is familiar with the endless number of specifications that can be submitted by a client. Sometimes the specifications have a crucial bearing upon project design, and other times the specifications are absolutely meaningless and have no bearing upon the project scope.
Lately, the number of specifications falling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrapped up an FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) yesterday and learned something new during the inspection: the use of PTFE &#8216;Teflon&#8217; tape on instrumentation joints is generally banned in oil refineries because the tape can tear off inside a pipe and accumulate at a valve, increasing the chances for equipment failure.
For those who haven&#8217;t done [...]]]></description>

It seems that things are finally beginning [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m currently working as a project manager of sorts, acting as the glue that holds the company, clients, and vendors together.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s what rock climbers do when bored&#8230;

I&#8217;ll probably be hosting slacklining sessions every few weekends. Contact me if you&#8217;re interested; I&#8217;ll probably be setting up a slackline near the south-side entrance to the VLSB or near the Campanile. If you want to purchase your own slackline, Slackline Express is a good place to check.
