		<title>DNA of the Blueprint (Mixtape)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
DJ Neil Armstrong, Jay-Z&#8217;s long time collaborator and accompanying DJ on his worldwide tours just dropped a gem on his site today. The mixtape &#34;DNA of the Blueprint&#34; is a retrospective of Jay-Z&#8217;s illustrious career, focusing primarily on the Blueprint trilogy, which most would agree houses his best work. 
The CD length work is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Osprey Hydraulics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I have been using hydration packs for a decade and to be honest, nothing&#8217;s really changed. Sure, they&#8217;ve come out with brushes to help you clean the bladders and Camelbak has a new attachment that lets you figure out your flow rate and how much water is left, but the idea is still the same.

		<title>Looking For Winter Gloves? Forget Icebreaker</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am a huge fan of technical clothing and my closet is littered with Patagonia, Marmot, Outdoor Research, and of course Icebreaker. In fact, I am such a fan that a third of my clothes can’t even be worn for 10 months of the year because I pretty much live in paradise, weather wise. 
I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Blundstone Footwear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
When I see elastic sided boots, I generally think of Australia and I rarely think of value but that&#8217;s exactly what Blundstone Footwear represents. They have been family owned and operated in the land down under since 1870.  Their flagship model is undoubtedly the 500 in stout brown; it&#8217;s the model you think of when you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Forty Steps to a Divine Short Rib Dinner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I had a pretty good short rib dinner tonight. I know what you’re thinking, I probably slowly braised it in a low temperature oven with some veggies, beef broth, and a bottle of red wine. Well, that was some other time. This time I sous vide it. And all it took was forty ingredients. Ok, [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Book of Eli, Product Placement, and Aziz Ansari</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
What do these two things have in common? Absolutely nothing, except for the fact that they are the two coolest things I am hooked on right now. In fact, I was going to title this post “The Coolest Shit This Week.” Let’s start off with my man Denzel and of course Mila Kunis, who I [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I Don&#8217;t Like About the Nexus One</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If you haven’t read my amazing Nexus One review at Joshspear, you should really go over there and take a look. Maybe sit down with a latte or some Oolong tea. It’d make for a great afternoon break.
I am loving this phone. Despite still being on the AT&#38;T network, my call issues have pretty much [...]]]></description>

		<title>Observations About The SB Marathon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Yesterday I woke up at 4:30 AM to volunteer for the first ever Santa Barbara International Marathon. It’s a really big deal that an event of this scale was held in our town and a real testament to the planning committee and especially Dan Rudd who helped orchestrate what seemed like a flawless execution. Here [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Importance of Knife Skills</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The older I get, the more I realize how little I know. I am not talking about an overall naivety but the discovery of new skills, techniques, and just factoids that I would absolutely be considered elementary in. What’s important about this discovery is not how it should make me feel (stupid), but how it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Patagonia R2 Jacket</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
I am a huge fan of technical clothing and find them especially irresistible when they actually look pretty good as well as being able to keep me warm and dry. The problem with the cold weather industry is the same that afflicts many other markets – excess. Super sized drinks and fries, 5 layer [...]]]></description>
