		<title>Hilarious: News.com.au classed as &#8216;adult website&#8217; in audit of politicians&#8217; internet use</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No comment; the article itself is more than&#160;enough.
Both news.com.au and smh.com.au were classified as adult sites in the&#160;audit.
&#8220;The definition of what has been classed as an adult site is something we&#8217;re reviewing,&#8221; [Legislative Council president Amanda Fazio]&#160;said.

		<title>A photo corkboard using jQuery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Inspired by Vladimir Vukićević&#8217;s photos.svg demo, I tried building something similar using CSS/JS instead of SVG/JS. This first version of the photo corkboard is nowhere near parity with Vlad&#8217;s on a performance or intuitiveness scale. When I get some more time I&#8217;ll strip out the jQuery and look into using a resize/rotate handle similar to&#160;Vlad&#8217;s.

		<title>jQuery Article Expander plugin v1.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this week a friend and I discussed using JavaScript to collapse and expand news articles to reduce page loads, so I played with a snippet of code over the weekend and then turned it into a jQuery plugin. It was fun getting my hands dirty with jQuery again &#8212; I&#8217;d forgotten how concise and [...]]]></description>

Testing front: We approved 25 canvas tests. Work is still on going on the underlying test framework to make tests more automatic: we are now going to allow reftests (but our framework will run them manually). We&#8217;re running into a serious limitation of the W3C test server (test.w3.org): it cannot run PHP code. This is [...]]]></description>

		<title>The new DevMo: when designers get near documentation websites</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Egads. Overwhelming much? This new frontend-heavy design for the Mozilla Developer Network sure is disorienting until you learn to ignore most of the front page and realise all the useful content is halfway down, beneath the fold. Because it&#8217;s important that you know it&#8217;s the last week to vote for your favorite Firefox Home iPhone [...]]]></description>

		<title>A semi-useful, half-done JavaScript 2D game engine (featuring Streets of Rage 2 characters)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In mid-April this year I got interested in playing with the Canvas element in JS. Back in the dark ages I used Visual Basic 6 (!) to make a few simple 2D &#38; 3D particle and game engines, and so those were the first things translated to JS. A simple point sphere demo and this [...]]]></description>

		<title>An increase in State-funded school chaplains</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We may have an atheist leader but she sure doesn&#8217;t shy away from buying votes from the religious wing. I would much prefer any state-funded programs to be establishing rational thought in schools, not the&#160;opposite.
The Department of Unpronounceable Acronyms provides a FAQ on the program including this interesting answer about school chaplain faith, although I [...]]]></description>
