		<title>A small plugin problem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Seems that my WAR Renown Rank plugin was causing problems with my website today.  It was having problems connecting to Mythic's Realm War page and as such was bringing the rest of my site to its knees.  Obviously I need to do much better error-handling/connection-handling in the plugin so that if it cannot reliably connect [...]]]></description>

		<title>A reading update, and friends make it worthwhile</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have finished reading the second Gotrek &#38; Felix Omnibus, a while ago actually.  Initially I had planned on moving on to The Ghost King, the third book in the Forgotten Realms Transitions trilogy, which I had received as a Christmas gift from my sister.  However, since it has been a while since I read [...]]]></description>

		<title>I need help with curry!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night, trying to make up for the not-so-bad-but-not-so-good Red Curry Beef dish that I cooked last week, I decided to try my hand at Curried Chicken.  I had it all ready to go; chicken breasts, onion, lots of garlic, mushrooms (instead of green pepper), thyme, and curry powder.  I was sure I had the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Yum, curried beef</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dinner last night was, in my opinion, a success.  I had to improvise a fair amount because some of what I bought for ingredients just weren't the right stuff (ie. it called for red curry base and I bought a red curry Tandoori paste), but in the end it was quite tasty.  I put in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Welcome back Kott&#8230; err, Hawktalon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend marks a momentous occasion for me.  I was actually able to convince a good friend of mine to come back to WAR, despite numerous protestations from him against it.  About a week ago his hard drive failed, then he had to take off on an out of town trip.  He was back this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Inevitable City almost hits Stage 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night, Lannerea was in the Inevitable City with Feared, attempting to push the city siege to Stage 2.  From what I saw, this was a server-wide effort on the part of Order which is incredible in itself, given that it tends to be the case that you can never actually get anyone to work [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Empire loves a good Slayer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night, despite us agreeing to having a quiet TV night, Lisa and I logged in to see if there was any good RvR action in WAR.  Within 10 minutes, she was visibly annoyed but stuck it out because Feared was running a guild-only warband and getting shit done.  However, the conversations in Ventrilo had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dragon Age expansion coming in March</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just read that there is an expansion to Dragon Age: Origins coming in March, called Awakening.  I bought Dragon Age earnestly hoping to play it almost exclusively, as we weren't playing WAR anymore at the time.  That went by the wayside once the server transfers happened and the RvR action started picking up again [...]]]></description>

		<title>WAR Renown Rank plugin for WordPress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote my very first WordPress plugin the other day! WAR Renown Rank It lets a user specify their character ID and server of their Warhammer: Age of Reckoning character, then it will simply connect to the Realm War website and display their character's name, renown rank, and a nice progress bar showing how much [...]]]></description>
