		<title>Fire!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the last two weeks I&#8217;ve been talking to Fire Chief Charles Acker of Elk, California. Elk is a small town on the northern coast, and judging by the view is a magical place to live. The thing is, during the summer it&#8217;s a breeding ground for fires and the world is inclining itself to [...]]]></description>

		<title>WHY ISN&#8217;T EVERYBODY WORKING?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On June 30th the SAG contracts had run out, and since then their are conflicts surrounding the continued negotiations. The AMPTP claims it made a final offer already and that it remains on the table.  Doug Allen and  SAG president Alan Rosenberg paint a different picture, claiming that negotiations continue on.
I imagine it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rainy Day Mashup</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So it was a rainy weekend day and I took the time to flesh out a piece preformed by my friend Alex Colwell. Aaron Howard and his Oil Can Press has been very busy releasing this track based on the poem &#8220;Sonnet: To Science&#8221; by Edgar Allan Poe, and I have to say after a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Projects on Hold as Contracts End</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It looks like the Actors won&#8217;t budge and their contacts run out tonight. After a devastating strike from the Writer&#8217;s Union that lasted from November to February, the industry is terrified that Alan Rosenberg will lead his union to a strike. This is still unlikely, but Hollywood is taking no chances and halted projects such [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mission Accomplished</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve been keeping with us on the 2008 GI Bill of Rights issue, I&#8217;m very happy to say that after passing the house and senate with bipartisan heft, our fearless president has signed it into law. Terrific. I&#8217;d like to think that this is the beginning of some much needed bi-partisan legislation, and it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Still No Deal For SAG</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With less than two weeks to go before the SAG contracts are up and no deal in sight, everyone is wondering what the Hell is next. After the Directors, Writers, and AFTRA made major concessions to move forward, there is little evidence that SAG too will bow to pressures on DVD sales. The whole industry [...]]]></description>

		<title>Astounding the Human Audience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Until now, the first recorded piece of computer music was thought to have emerged from Bell Labs on an IBM computer in 1957. 6 years earlier and across the Atlantic, the University of Manchester managed to claim the historical event. Maybe even more interesting than the recorded music, is the reaction of the human audience [...]]]></description>

For a few days there I was very concerned that the occupants of my aquarium would boil (sadly the shrimp are just too small to eat). In fact, it was [...]]]></description>

For those of you not familiar with the New York music scene, The Pimps of Joytime are a fascinating Brooklyn group founded by one of my previous loft-mates Brian J.

		<title>AFTRA Reaches Agreement</title>

Along with a noticeable raise in minimum pay, the deal increases the unions jurisdiction over web based programming as long as production exceeds fifteen thousand a minute.
On the other side of things they were [...]]]></description>
