		<title>Hunch Pays Off in Genealogy Research</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since Christmas I have been spending some time revisiting the Tobin Family Genealogy research.  One of my biggest challenges to date has been finding information about my mother&#8217;s side of the family (Klein), in particular my great grandfather Jacob Klein.  We knew that he died sometime between 1900 and 1910, either just before or not...]]></description>

		<title>Long Time, No Post!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just checked the Tobin Family Website and realized that I hadn&#8217;t posted here in quite some time.  I guess with hockey season well underway, I have spent most of my free blogging time over at http://NHLPens.com and have neglected keeping the family site up to date.  Additionally, I have been engaging with family and friends...]]></description>

		<title>Fall in Virginia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit that this is my favorite time of year in Virginia.  The temperatures stay in the 70&#8242;s by day and 50&#8242;s by night.  The humidity is all but gone.  The air is fresh and the skies are clear.  Last weekend we took advantage of a gorgeous weekend and drove to Markham, Virginia,...]]></description>

		<title>The Current Economic Crisis</title>

		<title>On Politics, Taxes and Spending</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Although I tend to shy away from discussing politics and religion because it usually leads to confrontation, I am stepping out on a limb today.  I imagine that you will be able to guess how I am voting by the time you finish reading this.  Senator Obama is a well-spoken, well-educated man who is good at...]]></description>

		<title>School Back in Full Swing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ben and Delaney have now been back at school for 2 weeks, starting back up on 2 September.  So far they are really enjoying it, but the logistics have gotten a little more challenging.  Ben has now moved on to middle school, and because he was selected to attend a specialty school with emphasis on...]]></description>

		<title>Genealogy Site Enhancements</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning I started to play with some of the untapped features of the Tobin Genealogy Website.  I currently use a great program that my friend &#8220;Mr Papa&#8221; recommended to me last year, called The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding, or TNG.  I use TNG to display our genealogy data on the Internet, and use...]]></description>

		<title>Website Enhancements</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you frequent theTobins.org, you may have noticed some subtle changes recently.  For starters, I simplified the look and feel a bit by going from two &#8220;sidebars&#8221; (the column of information on the right side of the page) to a single, wider sidebar.  I thought that the two sidebar approach was a little cluttered, and it didn&#8217;t...]]></description>

		<title>Back From Vermont</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had a great trip to Vermont over the last weekend to attend my brother Andy&#8217;s wedding.  We left Virginia on Thursday morning (6 Aug) and drove straight through, arriving in Vermont about 5:30PM.  It is about a 580 mile drive door-to-door, so it makes for a fairly long drive with the kids.  The drive was...]]></description>

		<title>PicApp for Blogging</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You may have noticed that over the past few weeks that I have included commercial images in my posts. I have done this using a website application called PicApp (http://www.picapp.com). This site allows you to use commercial images (from Getty Images, etc.) in your blog posts for free without having to worry about licensing costs,...]]></description>
