		<title>The day I met Glenn Seaborg</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today would have been Glenn Seaborg&#8217;s 98th birthday.

		<title>Something I&#8217;ve always wanted to do</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With  a little luck and good timing, and with many thanks to my friend Jeremy and his friend who works at NASA, I managed to get the whole family to Kennedy Space Center last week for the launch.

		<description><![CDATA[New research from SFSU suggests that to maximize happiness for your money, you should definitely opt for the vacation, or the concert, or some other non-tangible experience rather than a new car or some other thing. Seems obvious if you think about it all, I suppose.

		<title>Motown Soul Show</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What a blast we had last weekend at the Center for the Arts in Grass Valley. Fourteen soulful musicians performing a bunch of groovy tunes, and a sold-out crowd of the finest funky party people you could ask for. Another Sierra Sirens production&#8211;is there anything those ladies can&#8217;t do? I don&#8217;t think so.

They&#8217;ve always got [...]]]></description>
