Christmas falls on Sunday this year, which means most of us have an extended work week and are now truly feeling the “hump day” blues like never before.

We’ve found one of the best ways to get through “hump day” is to kick back for a few minutes and catch up on the day’s news… which we just so happen to have right here for Wednesday, December 21, 2011.
