Jennifer Hudson

I am sure most have heard that Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother, and possibly little nephew were killed past Friday. My heart goes out to her and her family. No one famous or not should have to deal with these types of things but sadly that is life and I pray for Jennifer and her family that they will get justice and be strong through this horrible time.

Homes Are More Affordable

Before the market went bad home prices were very expensive! Now everyone is reducing home rates. The interest rates on homes are low and getting lower. So for first time buyers this is actual a great time for you if you to get more for you buck and get a good deal. With the way the housing market is the are going back to traditional lending standards. As a general rule of thump you need a 20% down payment, sufficient annual income, good credit and a tolerable load of debt. This is Worth the Hype!!! This is a great opportunity for buyers, investors and a start to get the market back in the right direction!!

NFL Changing The Game

One of NFL's best defensive players is upset with the NFL about the new rule of tackling. He feels that all the regulations will change the game making the players hesitant of making a routine tackle because of penalties and fines. Troy Polamalu said “It’s just the essence of what NFL football is,” Polamalu said. “You don’t want to get into a sport that loses the core mentality. It’s like playing basketball and, `Oh, you can’t body somebody up. You can’t touch them. You can only play defense from a foot out.’ It takes away from the real athleticism of the sport. … football loses its identity.” I feel this is Worth The Hype! Big hits is what makes the game football. That's why I played. Polamalu and I don't agree with cheap shots but a good hard tackle should not be a problem! I understand the NFL wanting to protect the players but they all have known that injuries are a part of the game!!!

Exercise With No Sweat

There is a pill in the experimental stage that gives you the same effect of working out! It will be a while before we start to hear of it again if we ever do it has not hit the stage of human test yet. The pill has had a positive effect on over weight mice. This may or may not Worth The Hype for you! In my opinion something that will give me the same effect as running for miles etc and not having to break a sweat makes me wonder what toll the pill would taking on my body!

Salmonella Poisoning Srikes Back Again

In 12 states there has been 32 cases of salmonella poisoning. It was found in some frozen chicken dinners where it was reported that the microwave did not cook the chicken enough to kill the salmonella in the chicken. So far They include "chicken cordon bleu," "chicken Kiev," or chicken breasts stuffed with cheese, vegetables or other items. This is Worth The Hype. We all may remember what happens when we had a problem with salmonella in our tomatoes. It saddens me how so much of the food that we eat seems to have so many problems. This just adds to why I am going Organic. If you eat any of these dishes be careful to cook it until it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit internally.

More Lose There Jobs

Our economy is hot topic at the dinner table, at the debates and for the jobless. My heart goes out to the 150,000 people who lost there jobs just last month. that brings the # to 760,000 people fired since our economy started to fall. This is Worth The Hype! To get our economy up we have to get the banks to start giving loans again and consumers need to start spending again, which is difficult when people feel they don't have job security. Come on banks and come on government we are needing you to get on the ball and do something for right now. The Bail Out is said that it will take months before we even see some relief from that. Thanks but by that time we may be in worse condition!

The Bail Out Is A GO

It seems the only thing good about the Bail Out is that we don't have to worry about our banks and our money disappearing. This is a good thing but getting a loan will still be a little tough to get. This is worth the hype it is our economy we are talking about. They finally agreed to the Bail Out but I am not sure it will help any time soon with loans. I will be glade when America gets out of this and get back to the nation we use to be! Lets start with the gas PLEASE!
