		<title>Windows 7 x64 VT camera II drivers &#8211; They do exist (ish)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If like me, you have a 64-bit Windows box, but a Cisco VT II camera, you&#8217;ll have found Cisco in their infinite wisdom have decided to not bother writing drivers. However, there is a way around it:
Windows 7 x64 VT camera II drivers &#8211; Cisco Support Community
OK, so it&#8217;s horribly hacky, but it DOES work. [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;ll be your satellite</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been a Sky subscriber for a while, but always been intrigued by the other FTA satellite services. There’s a couple of additional channels floating about on the Astra satellites Sky uses, but nothing of interest. However, there’s plenty of other satellites out and about providing services for the rest of Europe. With a standard [...]]]></description>

		<title>Totally faxed up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The CallManager system I look after recently developed an odd issue. Faxes had been working quite happily for some time, but suddenly they were failing left, right and centre. Not only that, we had quite a few credit card machines running over VoIP which were failing to take payments. All ran via Cisco ATA 186 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cisco Useful thing: Why isn&#8217;t this on by default?!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you’ve ever worked on a Cisco IOS device, you’ve probably encountered the joy that is the terminal monitoring of events. IOS will happily dump bits of information onto the screen (very useful) but it’s also horribly disruptive if you’re typing in a command. Everything disappears into this sea of debug output or other info.

		<title>The trick to dealing with technical support</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s really rather simple:
Act dumb.
Yes really. Allow me to explain.
I browse a lot of forums, and in many cases I’ll see a barrage of people complaining about various technical support departments at ISPs, service providers, and whoever else. They’ll be wailing that they didn’t get the help they wanted, and nothing worked, and how much [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cisco TSP &#8211; Wave goodbye</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been wrestling with the Cisco Telephony Service Provider (TSP) today. We’re doing an install of ARC console, and having set everything else up, it wouldn’t start. I traced back and found that the issue lay in the TSP module itself. ARC tell you to try a utility called TAPI Soft Phone. Every time I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recipe: Rocky Roads 1.0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This recipe is a sort of mish-mash of ideas from other recipes. Rocky Roads are actually pretty easy to make – not so much a recipe as a ‘collect some random stuff and mush it together with chocolate&#8217;.
Anyway, this is what I made this weekend:

50g Butter
40g White Chocolate Buttons
100g Raisins
100g Marshmallows (either small, or large [...]]]></description>
