		<title>Looking for New Designers OVER 29</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(Originally posted at http://designover29.tumblr.com/.)
Art Directors Club has their annual ADC Young Guns competition. The rule is, you have to be UNDER 30.
Every year, Print Magazine features 20 new designers under 30.
John Bielenburg&#8217;s Project M states that it is for &#8220;young graphic designers.&#8221; Though the application says all ages can apply, don&#8217;t get your hopes up. [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Brief Twitter Argument with Thomas Zaleski, Candidate for the United States House of Representatives from Arizona’s First District</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The teabaggers scare me. Not because they&#8217;re passionate. I applaud that. Not because they think the government isn&#8217;t working for them anymore. I agree with that. The teabaggers scare me because most of them are idiots with no real ideas and no fundamental understanding of government and society. (&#8220;End all taxes!&#8221; &#8220;Then how will you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bookmarklet to Search Current Website for PDFs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At my day job, I often have to track down high resolution versions of a potential client&#8217;s logo for a proposal and/or a spec design*. When Brands of the World comes up empty, I resort to searching for a PDF on the potential client&#8217;s website using this Google search:
site:clientdomain.com filetype:pdf
Try it.
I do it so much [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;The Apple Store is next. Doors open on the left at the Apple Store.&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The CTA Red Line stop at North and Clybourn is awful. Despite being a within a block of a Crate &#038; Barrel, a Restoration Hardware, and other fancy-pants stores, the stop is a filthy mess. It&#8217;s falling apart and in a state of disrepair, much like the nearby notorious Cabrini Green housing project.
It also has [...]]]></description>

		<title>Les Lye 1924–2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To my friends quickly skimming this on Facebook, don&#8217;t be alarmed. Yes, &#8220;Les Lye&#8221; is an anagram of my wife&#8217;s name &#8220;Lesley.&#8221; Lesley is just fine.
Les Lye was the adult male actor on You Can&#8217;t Do That on Television. The character I remember the most was Barth, the diner owner whose hygiene and culinary skills [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ed McMahon 1923&#8211;2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I always thought it made perfect sense that Ed McMahon hosted TV Bloopers and Practical Jokes. Like his co-host Dick Clark, Ed McMahon devoted his life to making other people look great, standing out of the way so folks like Johnny Carson could make the audience laugh or handing out giant checks to suckers or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Billing Your Clients for PayPal Fees Without Losing Money</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My (or rather our) accountant advised us to bill our clients for the PayPal transaction fee. While those PayPal fees could be a tax write-off, they can take a bite off your bottom line. Furthermore, clients get billed for incidentals all the time, like FedEx packages, and a PayPal transaction fee qualifies. Finally, I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mr. T versus Nazis EXCLUSIVE SCREENSHOT</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A friend pointed me in the direction of a new video game in the works that pits Mr. T versus Nazis. So I made a few calls to a few highly placed industry executives with whom I have a personal relationship. And I&#8217;m proud to announce that I have an early screenshot of the game [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dom DeLuise 1933–2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wish I could find a YouTube clip of this: My favorite Dom DeLuise moment is from Cannonball Run. A police office is lecturing Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise, point at the two of them and sternly asks, &#8220;You got that?&#8221; Dom DeLuise gently grabs the the pointed finger in a subtle, feminine, completely emasculating [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gridelicious</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I created Gridelicious, a JavaScript clone of the incredibly overpriced Grid Calculator.
I&#8217;ve written this very long post about why I built it, most of which will only be interesting to me. (Hey, it&#8217;s my blog.) If you have an interest in how my brain works, go for it. But if you&#8217;re just going to play [...]]]></description>
