		<title>SQL Spatial data for State/County shapes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw a Blog post by Grant Fritchey (Blog &#124; Twitter) a couple days ago on using Geospatial data in SSRS 2008 R2.&#160; I think this is incredibly cool and it reminded me of something I wanted to share about my own recent experiences with geospatial data.&#160; My company recently decided (or rather, decided again, [...]]]></description>

		<title>2010 Goals – Q2 Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
Another quarter gone, and unfortunately I’m still looking about the same on goal progress.&#160; Still looking good on Blog posts and networking, still a bit behind on forum posts and still abysmally behind on the Learning goals.&#160; 
On the bright side, the learning goals are something that I can knock out in the last [...]]]></description>

		<title>Calculating ROI on Performance Tuning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently on the SSC forums, someone asked about how to measure the money in an actual dollar figure that they have saved the company with their performance tuning.&#160; I&#8217;ve often struggled with this myself, and so I started thinking about it a bit deeper.&#160; I started to respond in the thread; then decided I was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Glenn Berry (Blog) writes a lot of queries to extract information from the system DMV’s.&#160; One of them in particular I found extremely helpful in fixing some of the issues in my system.&#160; I took his query (the CTE at the top) and added some text manipulation to actually generate the create statements for you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whew!  So I&#8217;ve been super busy the past week and a half upgrading our production server from SQL 2000 to SQL 2008 and haven&#8217;t had time for any new posts.  Finally starting to see everything calm down again though and running smoother than ever before.  I had hoped to do a comparison of 2000 and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This post is a T-SQL Tuesday Entry, hosted this week by Aaron Nelson on the topic of “Reporting”.&#160; (It got a little long.&#160; Ordinarily I’d have broken this up into a series and fleshed out individual pieces a bit better, but this touches on most of the general points)
