Title: RSS Reader (DB Persistence)

## Refactoring

The refactoring task is completed in all branches. See the readme in that folder for a description of what I did.

## RSS Reader

I created an RSS reader that uses a little bit of jQuery and Rails UJS. Simply enter a valid RSS/Atom URL and you will be redirected to a page that displays your articles. The articles have tool tips set up on hover so you can see a preview. When you click on a link, the article will be shown in a modal unless the feed prohibits that. In that case, you will be shown a link to the article.

The articles and feeds are all persisted to the DB. There are a few validations to make sure that a feed actually makes sense. Posts are fetched whenever a feed is created, and whenever a feed & it's articles are displayed.
