	Off the Kuff: Real Men of Genius
		i want the real men of genius that i heard on the radio this morning (on 89x), about egg nog but none of the websites have it...where is it!
		OK, I admit it: I have a soft spot for those Budweiser "Real Men of Genius" ads which have migrated recently from radio to TV.
		Apparently, there were a lot more of these spots on the radio than I knew (this is the first negative side effect I can think of for my policy of changing stations whenever the music stops) - this page has downloadable MP3s of all of them.

	TheDeal.com - Genius loves company
		While tinkering with a radio antenna there, he and fellow researcher Robert Wilson discovered the microwave radiation of the Big Bang, and subsequently won the Nobel Prize in physics for their work in radio astronomy in 1978.
		The Rockville, Md., company raised $10 million in a Series B round in January 2004 from NEA, Columbia Capital and Grotech, and Penzias was instrumental in helping Simpkins rethink the company's business model.
		His enthusiasm for Konarka was so great, in fact, that NEA led the company's last $18 million round in June 2004 and Penzias now sits on Konarka's board.

		Dear Word Detective: On a recent radio talk show, the theme of which was the latest corporate scandal, the guest guru used the expression "cooking the books." To divert my attention from my plummeting mutual funds, I thought I would ask you to explain the origin of this idiom.-- Russ Greatens, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
		Dear Word Detective: I recently heard a radio talk-show host refer to a certain former U.S. President as a "sybarite." I looked up the word, but my dictionary just defines it as "a person devoted to luxury and pleasure," and doesn't explain where it came from.
		Dear Word Detective: I am mystified by the word "perjorative." I know I've heard this word before, but I have looked it up in two different dictionaries and it's not listed.

	AlZaid.Net's Store :: Disneymania, Vol. 3
		The genius of the Disneymania series -- if genius isn't too strong a word to use in association with tween-targeted music -- is the levels on which it works.
		In addition to Disney's own popster parade (Jump5, The Cheetah Girls, Christy Carlson Romano), mainstream hit makers like Jessica Simpson and Clay Aiken don their mouse ears for 3 -- the charm in a series that will leave tweens of all stripes wishing upon a star for a 4 that's as bright and shiny.
		And if you're 18 (or older), it's lighthearted kitsch; a lively, listenable, and sometimes surprising excuse to revisit songs you loved as a kid.

	Illinois Times: A & E: Now Playing: Resident Zinn

	Fabolous the Rapper
		And by teaming Fabolous with Nate Dogg -- who had become a hot commodity in the rap community that summer, virtually omnipresent on the radio with hits like "Area Codes" and "Lay Low" -- Clue had an undeniable hit song to drive the album's initial sales.
		DJ Clue certainly knew what he was doing when he made the young rapper the flagship of his start-up label, Desert Storm.
		He hired a handful of producers, rappers, and vocalists for Fabolous' debut album, Ghetto Fabolous: Ja Rule, the Neptunes, Lil' Mo, and Timbaland, to name a few.

	wall of Voodoo - Mexican Radio
		Their lyrics can be haunting and thought provoking, and while "Mexican Radio" may not tax your little gray cells, the line "I wish I was in Tiajuana eating barbecued iguana" is the work of genius.
		The group scored a hit with their "Ring of Fire" cover, but "Mexican Radio" was to be the group's most successful work, receiving considerable play both on the air and on MTV.
		Wall of Voodoo had a distinct sound that was uniquely American, and their music contained a self-mocking tone that provided early '80s new wave listeners a welcome break from the somber, self-absorbed new romantics.

	The Genius of Beef - 50 Cent stirs up trouble on The Massacre. By JodyÂ Rosen
		Plenty of rappers dis their rivals, but who besides 50 would appear live on the radio to denounce a member of his own posse while two of their duets were perched in the top 10?
		Supposedly, the rappers' beef had roots in a mugging back in Queens, but in songs like " Back Down," 50 Cent's motives seemed careerist: He was clambering into the spotlight on the back of a high-profile rapper, casting himself as a hard-core alternative to Ja Rule's bubblegum rap.
		New stars may rise on the strength of beats and rhymes, but a rapper's longevity depends upon his or her ability to adapt to fashion and keep themselves in the news.

	DeLon :: The School Entertainment & Activities Program (SEAP) Produces Another Musical Super-Star: DeLon
		But once introduced to the genius lyrics of the late hip-hop legend Notorious B.I.G he knew that writing, producing and performing was his passion and calling.
		It's a miracle this young multicultural rapper had any links to hip-hop being that he was restricted from television, radio and any other outside interferences as young boy.
		His Sri Lankan decent has already created a base sense of curiosity amongst his rapping peers, and this is only heightened by his uncommon lyrics and highly entertaining performance style.

	Bob Dylan - The Genius of a Performing Artist
		The performance, the show, continues with more of the same delicious artistry and no suggestion that we are now seeing and hearing another side of Bob Dylan or his band.
		His own useless and pointless knowledge and ways of perceiving have been transformed, to his immediate joy and relief, by the music he and his fellows are making and the nonverbal stories he hears himself telling himself through lyrics, melody, rhythm and phrasing all together.
		The same week that Bob and the boys played this show at the Pacific Amphitheater (which is inside and part of the Orange County Fair during Fair season), Dylan's movie Masked and Anonymous was opening in theaters for the first time.
