In class-bx-news.php it tries to get a feed from your url: http://www.businessxpand.com/feeds/wordpress-plugins/
Why does it do that? There is no reason for that. If something happens and that URL is broken then this plugin will crash your whole site! At the moment that URL is not loading, it times out.
What you have done is extremely irresponsible.
It's doing it to put a news feed on your dashboard (a few plugins do this).

Yeah I realized that, but then if that site is down, as it is now, it crashes the dashboard, and basically crashes the site for any logged in users.
It looks like the call is done poorly.
If you look at http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wordpress-seo/trunk/admin/yst_plugin_tools.php you can see "Widget with latest news from Yoast.com for dashbaord" how he does it much cleaner.
