Like a lot of people, your boy BDub isn't really feeling 50 Cent on wax right now. Alright, "Get Up" is hot, but generally, the boy is falling off faster than the McCain campaign.

Now, 50 Cent has a new reality show on MTV. A

"I think I have a calmer spirit. I think I have become a man of thought, rather than a man of action. I think I have evolved as a person. I think I have grown. I have stepped outside of the tough exterior shell I used to have. I am still myself. I still know how to get down with the best of them, but it ain’t necessary to show that. There is no room in my life for that part of me."

After speculation that Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson is looking to sell West Ham United and that the club would be going into administration, news has arrived that Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson wants to reassure the fans that he has no intentions of selling his club and that administration is far from being true.
Today's "Would you rather" question comes from one of our readers here - my boy Philip - and it circles around the economy these days.

You know, the top paragraph on the CBS website sets it up just fine, so let’s dive in:

Teach Children to Be Self-Disciplined Rather Than Cooperate - Most of the people consider corporal punishment a necessary last resort, without realizing that it is more often than not the first resort for minor misbehaviours. This in turn perpetuates a cycle of child abuse. It teaches children to hit someone smaller and weaker when angry. So violence spills out of the classrooms into the playgroun

What does it mean to be congruent?
Congruency is derived from the Latin verb 'congruere', which means 'to meet together' or 'to agree'.
Being congruent is when, who you are (values and beliefs), what you say, and what you do is in agreement or harmony.
At a deeper level, personal congruency exists when your true desires (intention), your thoughts (attention), feelings and actions are aligned wit

Despite anecdotal evidence that Genentech’s $60-per-treatment drug Avastin is as effective in treating a leading cause of blindness as their $2,000-per-treatment drug Lucentis, Genentech has declined to seek federal approval to the cheaper drug to treat wet macular degeneration.

Joe Klein thinks that statement from John McCain sounds desperate but in reality it is brilliant because it is the absolute truth.
This is a clear choice that the American people have. I had the courage and the judgment to say I would rather lose a political campaign than lose a war. It seems to me that Obama would rather lose a war in order to win a political

Most lenders offer some sort of point buy-down program which usually prices out at $1000/$100,000 mortgage for every 1/8 point that you buy down.
