		<title>jEdit won&#8217;t start after OS X Java update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I noticed that jEdit would no longer start on my MacBook Pro with OS X 10.5.5.  I&#8217;d try to run jEdit via Quicksilver as usual, but it wouldn&#8217;t open.  Double-clicking on the jEdit application icon was just as useless.  Nothing happened.  I checked for anything that could be blocking it and restarted my laptop with [...]]]></description>

		<title>OpenMRS Test-a-Thon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As with many of our hackathons, we learned a lot about where we stand&#8230; in this case, on unit testing.  We worked through a lot of the conventions and methodology to create a pathway to improve our unit testing coverage.  We&#8217;re embracing at least the method-naming aspects of BDD.  I am confident [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twice as fast. Half the battery life.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;m enjoying my new iPhone 3G, though I haven&#8217;t gotten much time on a 3G network with it yet (at the summer cottage this weekend).  Had to get a white one to get 16 gig (even though I was about 30th in line, the AT&#38;T store had already sold out of black).  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Firefox Incorrect Window Position</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay.  I&#8217;ve been enjoying Firefox 3 Beta, but today it started opening up its window way off to the right of my desktop and about the height and width of a stamp.  WTF?  A little Googling led me to a fix: Corrupt localstore.rdf.  So if you&#8217;re Firefox window starts misbehaving, try [...]]]></description>

		<title>Determine a the JDK version used to make a JAR file</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Maybe there&#8217;s already a tool to do this, but a quick Google search only yield this tip.  So, I made a quick little JAR reader to fetch the estimated version from the manifest:

import java.util.*;
import java.util.jar.*;
import java.io.*;
&#160;
/*
 * Sends the &#34;estimated&#34; JDK version (expected to be in the jar manifest &#34;Created-By&#34; attribute)
 * to System.out.
 */

		<title>Making a groovy module for OpenMRS</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No, I&#8217;m not smoking anything and I&#8217;m not trying to do a Greg Brady impersonation.  By &#8220;groovy&#8221; module&#8230;I mean a Groovy module.  
Groovy has the potential to bring the fun and rapid prototyping benefits of languages like Ruby to the Java scene.  But a big advantage of Groovy is that it&#8217;s built [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sitting in Nairobi at the WHO Standards Meeting listening to Mike McCay presenting about user interface design.  He introduced the five B&#8217;s (which he  attributed to Christian Allen).  Users are attracted to parts of a user interface in this order:
