		<title>May Cooler Heads Prevail</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I feel I’ve been had.
One thing I could not have known in 1996 was that the IPCC’s warming predictions would be wrong. Mean global surface temperatures have not risen since 1998, and, by some measures, have dropped since 2001. The CRU e-mails show scientists trying to hide this decline, to give one detail—I don’t have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Solar 1.0.0beta3 Released</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I released Solar 1.0.0beta3.  You can see the very short change log here. Special thanks to &#8220;kalkin&#8221; for committing a series of fixes and improvements.
These days I&#8217;m concentrating more on documentation. Previously, we had only the ubiquitous quick-start blog demo.  This release includes a new chapter on Solar&#8217;s dynamic dispatch cycle; i.e., [...]]]></description>

		<title>Barney Frank Doesn&#8217;t Know What To Do</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here’s an idea. Why not let people of who want to borrow money to buy a house convince the people who lend the money that there’s a good chance that the money will get paid back. Creative, no? It’s called voluntary exchange. Or a market. Or normal. Fannie and Freddie were abnormal. We don’t need [...]]]></description>

		<title>Moving On</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I started working at OmniTI on 01 Oct 2007; today marks my last day with the company. After two years and three months, it&#8217;s time to move on. I wish Theo and everyone else there all the best in their current and future endeavors.
While I don&#8217;t have a new employer, my finances are such that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mr. Right has left the building&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So our society has created a mess where men are vilified in the classroom, fed PC rhetoric, told their life&apos;s goal is to make women happy and do anything that assists her with her goals, while simultaneously told that he is a dope, idiot and unable to care properly for children, and now people are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Supreme Court Vindicates Political Speech, Pulverizes McCain-Feingold</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a landmark 5-to-4 ruling, the Supreme Court today in Citizens United v. FEC struck down major portions of the McCain-Feingold campaign-finance law. The Court left in place the disclosure requirement for corporations and the disclaimer requirement that identifies whether an ad is not paid for by the campaign. But little else remains. The Court [...]]]></description>

		<title>Solar Models vs. Zend Framework Models</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today, Michelangelo van Dam posted this narrative relating his experience with Zend Framework models:
http://www.dragonbe.com/2010/01/zend-framework-data-models.html
I read the article, and wondered how hard it would be to replicate his narrative using the Solar Framework model system.  Turns out it&#8217;s pretty easy: there&#8217;s a lot of work that Solar does for you.

		<title>PHP Is Like A Handgun?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[PHP is like a handgun. On its own, it is simply an inanimate tool that has no moral leaning. In the hands of a responsible citizen, it can be used to the benefit of society. But in the hands of someone who is untrained or mentally unstable, it can be used to commit horrible atrocities.
Whenever [...]]]></description>

		<title>Avatar and America</title>
		<description><![CDATA[But the more blatant lesson of Avatar is not that American imperialism is bad, but that in fact it’s necessary. Sure there are some bad Americans—the ones with tanks ready to mercilessly kill the Na’vi population, but Jake is set up as the real embodiment of the American spirit. He learns Na’vi fighting tactics better [...]]]></description>
