			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While I was browsing through some of the files Alan sent after he sold the blog to me, I stumbled upon the BloggingBoost folder. He offered this theme as a part of <a href="http://www.theratingblog.com/blogging-boost/">an arrangement</a> a while back and I&#8217;ve decided to let everyone download it for free. Check it out, it looks great and it&#8217;s very functional as well (you can make money by selling some ad space, adding 125X125 buttons is very easy).</p>
