		<title>Right-Clicking in Parallels on Mac OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I am always forgetting how to right click in Windows XP on my Parallels VM, I decided to keep it in my blog.
To right click, use the following keystroke combination:
Ctrl-Shift-Click
Also, if you are in Full Screen mode and cannot exit, you can try the following:
Alt-Command-Enter (Return)
Hope that helps someone else out there.

		<title>Illustrator CS2 Hanging&#8230; When Reading Fonts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One day after upgrading my Adobe products via the Adobe Updater, I decided to start Illustrator to work on some diagrams. To my dismay, the program was hanging; it displayed &#8220;Reading fonts&#8230;&#8221; for several minutes. I forced quit the app, then it hung at &#8220;Initializing&#8230;&#8221;.
Initially, I thought I had a problem font so I disabled [...]]]></description>

		<title>IE8&#8217;s Compatibility View&#8230; Why oh why?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After spending much time hacking my webpage&#8217;s CSS to render well in IE6, there were decisions made that we would drop IE6 support and focus on the new IE8. I thought this was wonderful news since the page tested wonderfully in IE8.
Anyone who knows IE, knows that wasn&#8217;t the end of the story. As I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bulk Insert and Problem Characters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my latest projects involves bulk inserting data from a flat-file into a database table (SQL Server 2005 Database). The data file is provided by another third-party application and FTP&#8217;d over to a server that I have access to via batch script and SFTP2.
I use a stored procedure to execute the bulk insert command. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flash in the Past&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I decided to aggregate some of my old Flash media (circa 2006) and upload it to a designated area on my site. Since I was lazy, I didn&#8217;t even bother to cut up the images and optimize the HTML. I used a typical menu-on-the-left frameset pattern for easier navigation. The direct URL is http://www.odlan.com/flash/
Enjoy! &#8230; [...]]]></description>

		<title>ScrewTurn Wiki 3.0 Users SQL Server Provider Bug</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I was tasked to implement a wiki using ASP.NET. After googling some possible candidates, I selected the wiki software created by ScrewTurn.
Here&#8217;s the basic information from the ScrewTurn site,
&#8220;ScrewTurn Wiki is based on Microsoft ASP.NET 3.5, meaning that you need a Windows operating system to run it, such as Windows Server 2003 or Windows [...]]]></description>

		<title>Parallels 3.0 Upgrade to 4.0 (on Snow Leopard)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the Mac OS &#8220;Snow Leopard&#8221; was announced, I pre-ordered the software. Upon receiving the installation CD, I immediately installed it (knowing that I had Time Machine backups already in case something catastrophic occurred).
The installation was pretty straightforward and quick. It really wasn&#8217;t a super upgrade; nothing stood out at me, as I was playing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Searching for Answers&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I used to think search engine marketing (SEM)/search engine optimization (SEO), was simple to implement. I mean just insert good meta tags, submit a google sitemap file, use table-less designs and have many sites link to your website — and lo and behold, your rankings would improve.
As I begin my journey down the rabbit hole [...]]]></description>

		<title>100% CPU Utilization After Installing Wireless Adapter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just recently, I have noticed my Windows XP laptop&#8217;s fan buzzing like crazy. As I checked the Task Manager to see what process was utilizing the CPU cycles so much, I noticed a process called "cscript.exe" using about 50%. Then I saw another instance of the cscript executable. I was totally dumbfounded and did not [...]]]></description>
