		<description><![CDATA[So I'm sitting in my office, quietly coding some Flash Actionscript, headphones on, music blasting...when I hear a distant rumble.

Or maybe I feel it, in the soles of my shoes. I look up, and there it is again. This time I take the headphones off...but I don't hear anything, just feel a little rumbling.

Earthquake, I figure. Or maybe I need to tell Greg the gardener not to mow quite so close to the house. Then the doorbell rings, and it's my neighbor Erin, from across the way.

"Sorry to bother you," she smiles, "but is your water turned on?"]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now, listen, I LIKE cupcakes, don't get me wrong. What's not to like? They're cake. They're frosting. They're portable. Portion-controlled creamy-sweet goodness you can stick in a lunchbox. With sprinkles.

But...high-fashioned eats? The hautiest of haute cuisine?

C'maaaaaaaan. They're CUPCAKES, for heaven's sake. Yet I kid you not, there are at least three specialty cupcake shops in Portland, and more coming. Some of the best bakeries in town are pushing cupcakes as the wedding dessert of choice]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Apparently there IS such a thing as having too many gadgets, and I'm there.

I'm a huge fan of wireless, if only because it reduces the mass of cable snaking through my office.* Of course, the number of cords attaching something to something can grow almost infinitely, and the only thing you have to worry about is losing the desk, or tripping over a cable and breaking your leg or something.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yowza. US copyright protections just got a LOT more interesting for tech and iPhone folk, thanks to the Library of Congress.

For those of you who don't know, LoC is a key arbiter in US copyright law. Since they work with the intellectual property of US citizens all the time, and presumably can move faster than USPTO or Congress, they also can rule on what does or does not constitute US copyright violations.

So tomorrow (Tuesday) they'll publish a new copyright exemption that acknowledges some key advances and problems in technology.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can you tell I FINALLY had a free Saturday for the farmers' market? Whew. I thought I was gonna get stuck eating grocery store produce for the whole summer.

And, of course, as soon as I got them home I couldn't resist doing an impromptu photo shoot in the kitchen.

This weekend I tried a different farmers market, the one in Beaverton. It's huge, and unlike my beloved Portland Farmers Market, they allow non-food vendors in so there's also an assortment of arts and crafts for sale, in addition to a really remarkable collection of strange, unusual (and delicious) farmgoods.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["All web search engines give identical results, so there's really no reason to use anything but Google." 

I was participating in a "web for artists" seminar, and that declaration came from a fellow speaker. Being a mini-nerd, I couldn't, oh, realize that it would embarrass the lady to contradict her in front of her audience, so I spoke right up.

"Uhm, 'scuse me, but that's not really true..." and got glared at for my pains. But then I got to thinking: Does extending your query to other search engines increase the quality of your results??

(Uh-oh. I felt an experiment coming on.)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["If you'll take the whole flat you can have it for $10," the berrylady said, pointing to gorgeous heaps of blackberries.

I'd come late to the Portland Farmers' Market AGAIN--I keep having early Saturday appointments that mean I don't arrive until 2 or 3 in the afternoon, when everyone's closing. The berrylady was one of the few still open, and she was trying to lighten the homeward load with a great deal: Huge, ripe blackberries for about 83 cents per pint (in grocery stores right now, they're about $2.75/pint)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are moods in which you write, and moods in which you're glad you wrote yesterday. I'm in the latter, not because I can think of nothing to write about, but rather because there's so much it's hard to know where to begin.

First, the art. Haven't so much as touched the studio (aside from helpless shoves to see if it's still there under all the mess) in nearly two months. Apparently I left out a key element of studio design, i.e., where you put the stuff for AFTER you shut off the kiln: Packing and transport materials. Brochures. Booth furniture and setup kits. Signage. Display stands and hangers. Etc.

		<description><![CDATA[...and got skid marks all over its butt.

Sorry for the vulgarism, but I'm watching the whole iPhone thing and thinking "whoa--now THAT'S a crash."

The Wall St. Journal just reported that Consumer Reports (love it when the media reports on the media) will not recommend Apple's brand-spanking new Droid-killer, the iPhone 4, to its readers.

Apparently the venerable reviews mag tested three iPhone 4s, found troubling issues with the design and didn't buy Apple's dismissive explanations. Along with other revelations, we're kinda getting to a "mighty have fallen" scenario with the iPhone.]]></description>
