		<description><![CDATA[On the eve of Pakistan&#8217;s 61st Independence Day, it rained thoroughly throughout the city &#8212; perhaps throughout the country.  I walked out late in the morning over the wet asphalt on a road that was rebuilt a few months ago to the spot where one of our cars was parked.  Dad is in [...]]]></description>

But if you are, odds are good that you already identify with the importance of knowing which parts of a system under your control are under-performing, causing bottlenecks, and plainly not coping [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is the third USB mouse that has gone nuts.  After roughly what may be two, three months of buying and using, the mouse starts to frequently send two signals instead of one back to the CPU when the left button is clicked.  The end result is that instead of a single click, [...]]]></description>

Nokia phones have a &#8216;c&#8216; key which mostly deletes selected items or text.  [...]]]></description>

The autoindent (and, possibly, smartindent) features of Vim go crazy when you yank and slap a block of text.  How do you do it right, then?  This is not a new [...]]]></description>
