		<title>Summer of Rock 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ We&#8217;re now over halfway through the summer, but that doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s too late for rock. I&#8217;m happy to announce the 4th edition of my annual Summer of Rock compilation! Although it&#8217;s late in coming, it&#8217;s not short on good music. I know you want to squeeze the most out of the remaining 5 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photos from Germany and England</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I took a trip recently, occasioned by dirt-cheap airfare and the fact that my parents were going already, to Germany and England. Awesomely, Jessica was also able to come! We spent a few days in Edelsfeld, Germany, the tiny town where my sister and her husband live. Then it was off to Cambridge, England, for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Marathon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Today I ran my first marathon, and I wanted to write about it &#8211; not because it was a fast marathon or one that, from a running time perspective, I am proud of. It wasn&#8217;t and I&#8217;m not. But I think today&#8217;s marathon taught me a lot about life and spirituality, and allowed me [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Holly and the Ivy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In previous years, Splendour Hyaline (the band consisting of my brother and myself) has enjoyed recording some music for the Christmas holidays. Now that we are past Thanksgiving, David and I decided to produce a few songs to add to the collection. The album is called The Holly and the Ivy, and has just two [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holiday Marketing is Upon Us!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a while since I wrote. Lots of things have happened. Work on Backlight continues. My personal life unravels. I take the GRE. I start applying to grad school again. I begin marathon training. I read many insightful things by many insightful people (and neglect to share). I ruminate about issues surrounding Election Day [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spore</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few years ago, I wrote a post detailing my personal gaming history, wherein I also looked ahead to the future at a computer game that was shaping up to be extremely interesting. That game was Spore (you should really go to their site and watch the introductory video). Under development for half a decade, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Germany and Barcelona</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Blog silence has reigned for the last month, largely due to my traveling in Europe and wanting, understandably, to minimize computer time. I spent most of my time in Germany living with my sister Rachel in a tiny town in Bavaria called Edelsfeld, where she is living with her husband while he works for the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Dark Knight and René Girard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Last week, I saw The Dark Knight. It was incredible, easily the best movie I&#8217;ve seen in the last year and probably in my Top 10 overall. It had a wonderful balance of action, good writing, amazing acting, thoughtful plot, and provocative questions. The questions it raises (and answers?) are, as you would expect from [...]]]></description>

		<title>The iPhone Era: Technological Adaptation and the Future of Human Evolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the original iPhone was released a year ago, I wanted one. The promise of being constantly connected to all the various sockets of the Internet into which I have plugged myself (news, e-mail, chat, social networks, information gathering, etc&#8230;) was seductive. Being able to work while not standing by a computer, or to keep [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stand-Up Desk, Part II: Implementation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago, my dad and I were able to put together the desk. Luckily, we have a small hardware store just 4 blocks away, so we were able to go get materials at the spur of the moment. Said materials turned out to be:

(4) cuts of 3/4&#8243; plywood at 11 3/4&#8243; x 21&#8243; [...]]]></description>
