		<title>Vader&#8217;s Puppy Foundation Assessment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our 8 month old Cocker Spaniel Vader passed his GCDS Puppy Foundation yesterday. He owes this award mostly to Silke&#8216;s loving efforts to train him. She turned a bouncy puppy into a friendly and well behaved dog. Even cat owners like Vader. And here is a picture of our award winning dog:]]></description>

		<title>The Gaming PC Madness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago I read a review of a high-end graphics card in the c&#8217;t magazine. The card featured nVidia&#8217;s latest and greatest GPU and a very elaborate cooling system which was required to reduce the fan noise to acceptable levels. I was shocked by the price of the graphics card. At €510 the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hard Times</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t have much luck with hard disks these days. One of the new hard disks in my server started reporting a lot of write errors after only a few days of service. I swapped its place with the other new hard disk to make sure it&#8217;s not a problem with either cabling or the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Game of the Month: Super Mario Galaxy 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last month Nintendo released Super Mario Galaxy 2, the highly anticipated sequel of Super Mario Galaxy. As I greatly enjoyed playing the first game I had high expectations. So the pivotal question is whether Super Mario Galaxy 2 is as good or even better than the first part: If you have played Super Mario Galaxy in the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hard Measures</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Due to massive problems I had to replace two of the hard disks in my server in a hurry recently. As I had positive experience with Western Digital RAID Edition drives in the past I bought two RE4‑GP WD2002FYPS drives. Silke and I installed them earlier last week and our server is in a satisfactory state [...]]]></description>

		<title>Redundant Array of Independent Door-stoppers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My home server is using RAID 1 to keep all the files stored on it safe. The idea is that if one of the hard disks fails I can just replace it without losing any data. Well, that is the theory. Last night both of the hard disks in the primary RAID 1 volume of my [...]]]></description>

		<title>A real Cambridge Cocker</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our Cocker Spaniel puppy Vader has grown so much since we got him almost three month ago. He is now taller than even fully grown Cocker Spaniel bitches. We also managed to house train him in record time. And mostly thanks to Silke&#8217;s continuous efforts Vader does not only come when being called but also obeys [...]]]></description>

		<title>Game of the Month: BioShock 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At first glance BioShock 2 is just another first person shooter game. The player&#8217;s mission is to guide the main character through the remains of the underwater city Rapture, fight mutated humans and security robots and free the main character&#8217;s protégé. What makes BioShock 2 a really good game is the excellent design and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Movie of the Week: Iron Man 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Silke and I really enjoyed the first Iron Man movie. It is also one of our favourite Blu-ray Discs not only for its entertainment value but also because of the superb image quality. Unsurprisingly we were both looking forward to the sequel ever since we saw the first trailer. Last Tuesday we could finally watch Iron Man 2 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Major updates in pkgsrc-2010Q1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[During the previous week the new stable package source branch pkgsrc-2010Q1 was created. Among the many new packages my favourites are clearly these three: Samba 3.3.12 NetBSD&#8217;s Samba package (version 3.0.37) is outdated and no longer supported by the Samba team. The new net/samba33 package provides a newer and above all still supported version. The upgrade [...]]]></description>
