		<description><![CDATA[I had everything installed, and decided I wanted to look at the crud in my Applications menu with a view to removing it. I started with Adobe Stock Photos.

Here&#8217;s the result of launching Adobe Stock Photos.

All right, fine, let&#8217;s uninstall it and get rid of that item in my Applications menu. I click on &#8220;Find [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently re-installed Abobe CS3 from scratch. Whether the experience was typical or not I leave to you to decide. Here&#8217;s an event-by-event description.

I was motivated to record the install process because I had previously installed CS3 on my boot drive. Knowing Adobe&#8217;s penchant for cluttering up the Applications menu, I thought I would select [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I posit that there is no such thing; that is to say, characterAtIndex: will return a unichar value that might or might not represent the encoding of a character.

Today I filed this documentation bug on the NSString reference document:
I believe the description of characterAtIndex: is misleading and possibly incorrect.
The description makes no reference to Unicode [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Evidently this is not a problem for most developers, but I have run into a snag caused by AppKit&#8217;s failure to declare methods that are specified in /System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Resources/StandardKeyBinding.dict.

StandardKeyBinding.dict maps keys and key combinations to specified action methods. For example, the pageUp key is mapped to scrollPageUp:. In turn, NSResponder declares the scrollPageUp: method.
However, several common [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finally got around to looking at our Cornwall photos.

Here&#8217;s a B&#038;B we stayed in. Those are palm trees.

We took the trip to see these people, friends and family of Winston Graham. From left to right: Winston&#8217;s daughter Rosamund and son Andrew; Christopher Biggins; Angharad Rees; and Jane Wymark. I adore them all.

		<description><![CDATA[I absolutely love TedTalks. They&#8217;re perfect for viewing on the iPhone, and easy to obtain as podcasts. But the old iPhone treated them as audio files if you tried to move them into a playlist. You had to sync all the podcast episodes, and they can accumulate very quickly.

Yippee! It&#8217;s fixed now! I can store [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We visited the Mus&#233;e d&#8217;Orsay, home of the Impressionist paintings.

Although the museum is very difficult to get through (the stairs and passageways seem deliberately concealed, and there is no way to see the galleries without extensive backtracking), the paintings are superb. This one, for example; I&#8217;d no idea how striking it truly is until I [...]]]></description>

Or rather, we&#8217;re about to leave Paris, at 6:00 tomorrow morning.  We got up early Sunday, took a taxi to Dover Priory station, took the train to Ashford International, and boarded the Eurostar for Paris. Two hours later we checked into the hotel Empereur at 2 Rue [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some photos of Stockholm and the voyage back into the Baltic.

The Vasa Museum.


A runestone.

Looking toward the city center from the Skansen Museum.

Sailing away from Stockholm through a narrow channel filled with beautiful green islands.

The archipelago contains hundreds of green islands. And two striking white ones. Here&#8217;s one.

Sunset, taken with my iPhone.

Same sunset, different camera.
