...good and pure Southern boys who abstained from all the fun stuff until 1997, when their parents divorced, Leon left the church, and the mostly homeschooled, God-fearing sons went tumbling into the temptations of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. The group's first release, the EP Holy Roller Novocaine, came out in 2003, shortly after the brothers grabbed cousin Matthew (guitar) from Mississippi and everyone learned how to play his instrument...
However, he believes the survey's results reflect emotional responses rather than reality. "People are frozen with fear - this unbelievable emotional roller coaster has caused people to make decisions to continue to work even if they didn't need to," says Evans.

The firm, based in Charlotte, N.C., had never been a big player in the subprime-mortgage business, in either lending or underwriting loans. That prudence led to smaller lending losses at B of A than at Citigroup and other rivals. What's more, while other financial firms were verging on broke, Bank of America seemed...
...years, 7-Eleven Hong Kong has shown deference to Hong Kong's love of food by offering ready-to-eat local fare like pork buns, shao mai and fish balls. (The more familiar roller-grill hot dogs and Slurpees are also available at some of the stores.) In fact, Casey Lum, who researches extensively on Hong Kong food culture and is the director of graduate studies in communication at William Paterson University, says part of the company's success in Hong Kong is due to the fact that it has become a "glocal" chain - a global brand adapted to local...
