		<description><![CDATA[The other day, I ran into a situation where I needed to do case sensitive queries in MySQL. With a little Googling, I discovered that the keyword &#8220;binary&#8221; makes that possible, like this:
select foo_field from foo_table where binary foo_key="foo value"
So I tried it out and it worked, but when querying a table with over a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For the most part, I love AWeber. But as I wrote last year, they&#8217;ve got a few really irritating problems. Here&#8217;s my latest gripe.
About a month ago, I deleted 11 follow-up messages from one of my autoresponder sequences &#8212; they weren&#8217;t converting, so I axed &#8216;em.
AWeber keeps track of the last follow-up message that was [...]]]></description>

We wouldn&#8217;t send any email out, and no email would come in.
