			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151161">Samsung SH-S202J</a> is a great new burner from Samsung.  It is quiet, fast, and the tray operates smoothly.  It works seamlessly with K3B in Linux, burning 4.2GB of data in 6 minutes including session closing.</p>

<p>The first one of these I bought came DOA, but I just let NewEgg know about it, and they shipped me a new working one for free.  Brilliant!  I highly recommend you pick one up if you&#8217;re in the market.</p>
<h2>Media Tested</h2>
<p>One of the reasons I bought a new burner was the 200 discs I currently have that my old burner is incompatible with.  I know now that at least 100 of those will work, since I sampled from a previosly non-working stack for the results above.</p>
<ul>
<li>Maxell 16x DVD-R</li>
<li>Sony 16x DVD-R</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Within ten minutes of posting that <strong>Ron Paul had 18% of the vote</strong>, Cherry Creek news removed all references to Ron Paul from its article.  <strike>Also, it appears that their results for McCain went from 19% to 11% somehow.</strike>  This is proven by the snippet found on <a href="http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&amp;client=firefox-a&amp;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&amp;hs=R4G&amp;q=source:cherry_creek_news+ron+paul&amp;um=1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;tab=wn">Google News</a>.  Depending on Google News, this may or may not update there.</p>
<p>Here is a screenshot of what Google News says:</p>
<p><img src="http://ralree.com/assets/2007/12/23/cherrycreek_rp.jpg" alt=""/></p>
<p>And here is a screenshot of the <a href="http://www.thecherrycreeknews.com/content/view/2190/2/">article</a>:</p>
<p><img src="http://ralree.com/assets/2007/12/23/cherrycreek_rp2.jpg" alt=""/></p>
<p><a href="http://www.thecherrycreeknews.com/component/option,com_contact/task,view/contact_id,1/Itemid,3/">Contact them</a> to tell them to add Ron Paul back into their results.  This distortion is unacceptable.  How could they have screwed up their results so much?  I mean, confusing McCain as 19% rather than 11%?  Weird&#8230;</p>
<h2>Update</h2>
<p>After a little more detective work, I managed to reconstruct most of the original paragraph.  Most of it is the same as the new one.  It looks like they just removed a section about the Echo Boomers, who are supporting Ron Paul 18%.  Here it is:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Rudy Giuliani is still the top choice for Echo Boomers followed by Mike Huckabee (28% and 21% respectively), but John McCain moves into third place (19%) and <strong>Ron Paul jumps into 4th place with 18 percent of this generation&#8217;s support.</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>So, tell Cherry Creek News to put back in its Echo Boomer results, which are apparently the generation of people between 18 and 30.</p>
<h2>Update 2</h2>
<p>They told me to &#8220;get a life.&#8221;  Wow &#8211; what a fair and honest publication.  I don&#8217;t know why they won&#8217;t add Dr. Paul back into their article after these amazing polling results that obviously show he is neck and neck with Huckabee with young people.  Boycott Cherry Creek News.</p>
