8 hours ago ago from Daily Markets
Fed President Ben Bernanke has been named Time magazine's Person of the Year for 2009. However, in looking back at former People of the Year it becomes crystal clear that this title doesn't necessarily mean that the honored person has done something good for the world It only meant that he or she had made a big influence on the course of history during the preceding year. Some have brought us blessings, while others have brought plagues. ...

So finally, here is my list of "must-hear" albums from this year. I'm a little late to the scene but hopefully you guys aren't exhausted of these yet. I'll keep it easy on the reading part. I wasn't sure what to call this list, but I think that "best of" and "favorite" are overused since any one person can only listen to a tiny portion of all the albums that came out this year, and one person's favorites won't exactly match another's.

With another calendar year down before the end of everything ( 2012 , perhaps?), the end of year lists are piling in, on topics from best album to best track, best live performance to best Twitter meltdown, best overdressed celeb to best use of "I'm gonna let you finish, but..."

Byron Williams: Here's to Those on My Last-Minute Christmas Shopping List
3 hours ago ago from Huffington Post
True to my customary seasonal procrastination, I am now forced to once again participate in the American tradition known as last-minute shopping. Last year, I got for then President-elect Barack Obama, Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities". My thinking was, it may be the best of times for Obama, but it was mostly likely the worst of times for a number of Americans. This year, I've decided to pre-order for the president Robert Caro's ...
