		<description><![CDATA[I have found that infrequently dragging and dropping stops working within an explorer shell. Having googled there seems to be numerous causes. For a quick fix which works for me, try:  Press Ctrl-Alt-Del  Press Esc This works for me every time, and it happens infrequently enough that i&#8217;m happy to put up with the workaround rather than trying to find the root cause!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Troubleshooting SQL Server performance issues is a huge subject, but I often start by analysing the wait (sys.dm_os_wait_stats)&#160;and virtual file statistics (sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats) in parallel. If the performance issues are not blocking, then it is always a good idea to clear the wait statistics and then let server run for a set period (Hour, Day, Week) giving you a good set of data to work with. Wait stats are cleared by running: DBCC SQLPERF('sys.dm_os_wait_stats', CLEAR) However ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently created a Windows 8 VM using VirtualBox on my iMac and misjudged how much space I would need, however not being an experienced VirtualBox user I didn&#8217;t realise you wouldn&#8217;t be able to increase the VM size from within the GUI. After a quick google session I also found that the advice on resizing VirtualBox VMs was very Windows-centric, so I thought i&#8217;d post step-by-step instructions for all you Mac VirtualBox users our ...]]></description>

You can however simply re-enable it from the control panel: Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off > Tick &#8220;Telnet Client&#8221; and hit OK.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is something most people may not think about, but it’s interesting if you’re an f1 geek. Each driver is assigned a number – the previous season’s champion is assigned number 1, whilst his team-mate number 2. Number’s are then assigned in order according to each team’s position in the previous season’s constructors’ championship. Curiously, the number 13 is not used. Superstitious, FIA?]]></description>
