		<title>Medals have tech in them</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The medals being presented at the Vancouver Winter Games have the distinction of being &#8220;first&#8221; in several ways. It&#8217;s the first time they aren&#8217;t flat. These medals are of an undulating design. Basically, that means they look wrinkled. Personally, I&#8217;m still not sure if i like that feature or not.
They also are the first medals [...]]]></description>

		<title>Olympics time again</title>

However, I&#8217;ve always enjoyed watching the Olympics, especially the Winter Games. I think it&#8217;s a combination of the fact that you get to see sports that [...]]]></description>
