I'm setting up a site with two columns and would like some advice on how things should be lined up so that they're pleasing to the eye.

I've got a title and a couple of lines up top as a description. Then the rest of the page (other than the footer) is split 50-50. The left column has a title, then 4 or 5 items consisting of a title and a brief description. (i.e. resources for consumers, then a list of resources with links). The right column has the same thing.

So if I split the page 50-50, how should I lay out the two columns of text? Left align? Center? some sort of golden ratio? Center the heading then left align the list below that?

All I got right now is ugly and hard to read :).
