...much of the 50-hating is unjustified, or what Curtis would call “window shopping.” 50 may not be a good rapper, but he is a hell of a songwriter. Lloyd Banks is a talented lyricist with a lot of potential. Young Buck, well, um?? he’s got some energy, and his descriptions of violence are still somewhat shocking. Tony Yayo and Olivia are pretty much worthless, as is Spider, Mase, M.O.P., and (sigh) Mobb Deep. In the end, this is so-so music that to the discerning ear that will...
...children of the baby boomers. The grandchildren of the Great Generation. The great-grandchildren of the—um??parents of the Great Generation. We are the generation after Generations X and Y, respectively. But without these qualifiers, we are nothing.

It can start by actually sticking to its bylaws and notifying applicants of their membership status in May. Further, the UM must consider applications twice a year, in March and October. This step will speed acceptance of deserving members and force the UM to provide more feedback to rejected applicants. In short, twice...
Most important, however, the UM must communicate better with Cambridge’s varied religious organizations. Throughout this whole sordid ordeal, Father Woodruff has cited lack of communication as the UM??s most grievous offense. If the ACOI had been clearly denied admission to the UM, then Woodruff could have taken steps to fix his church’s application. The United Ministries’ mission is to “honor the religious freedom, human dignity, conscience, personal spiritual welfare and the religious tradition of every person to whom they minister.” We eagerly await...
