No Surprise On 'American Idol': Elise Testone Exits
Perpetual cellar-dweller joined in bottom three by Hollie Cavanagh and Skylar Laine.

Another one bit the dust, but this one wasn't hard to see coming.
After two weeks of shocking elimination episodes, "American Idol" took a break from the surprises Thursday (April 26), sending perpetual bottom-dweller Elise Testone home.
Testone, the 28-year-old from Charleston, South Carolina, had faced elimination so many times that "Idol" mentor Jimmy Iovine joked she had a "vacation home" in the bottom three.
Testone came up on the short end of the reported 58 million votes cast following Wednesday's performance episode, where she took on Queen's "I Want It All" and a very wordy rendition of Jimi Hendrix's "Bold as Love." Following the Hendrix song, Randy Jackson told her it "wasn't the right song for this time in the competition," and on Thursday's show, Iovine called Testone "a great singer who makes bad choices." He called "Bold as Love" a "double down on bad decisions."
Testone, the oldest of this season's finalists, sang Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" during her exit. It was one of her signature songs of the season.
Testone was joined in the bottom three Thursday by Hollie Cavanagh and Skylar Laine. Laine was sent back to safety immediately, leaving Testone and Cavanagh to await their fate.
According to host Ryan Seacrest, the 58 million votes cast were 10 million more than the number of votes cast at this point in the season last year.
Queen Extravaganza, an official Queen tribute band, opened the show with a performance of "Somebody to Love." The episode also saw performances from season 10 "Idol" contestant Stefano Langone — who now goes simply by Stefano — who did his debut single "I'm on a Roll," and Katy Perry, who in a taped performance did a military-themed "Part of Me."

HTC One S for T-Mobile review
A couple weeks ago we got to have our Ice Cream Sandwich and eat it too, thanks to a gorgeous couple phones from HTC -- the One X and the One S. Both run Sense 4 -- a thinner, lighter version of the company's polarizing UI -- and together with the entry-level One V, represent HTC's attempt to make a comeback after a lackluster year of me-too products. The first to make its way to the US is the One S which lands on T-Mobile April 25 for $199 on contract (with a $50 rebate). We just spent a weekend with Magenta's new flagship handset. So how does it compare to the global One S? Find out after the break.

An Interview with Jazzy Danziger |
Jazzy Danziger?s debut collection, Darkroom, is the winner of the 2012 Brittingham Prize in Poetry. Danziger studied at Washington University in St. Louis and the University of Virginia, where she was a Henry Hoyns/Poe-Faulkner Fellow in poetry. She currently serves as editor for the Best New Poets anthology.
Interviewed by Christopher Linforth
How did you come to poetry?
I always wrote, though the early writing was modeled after ghostwritten teen chapter books like Sweet Valley High. I wasn?t allowed to check them out of the school library, so I?d hide behind a bookshelf for the free reading hour with a decoy nearby in case the librarian walked over. I wrote a lot of high school dramas, and a few stories about a high-powered ?lady banker.? I didn?t even know what bankers did, but I was eight and the lobby at the Sun Bank building in downtown Orlando left an impression on me.
There was some external recognition that I had drive, if not range. I wrote a 10-page biography of my basset hound in first grade, and my teacher let me read it to the class. That was my first reading and my worst audience.
The writing became poetry when I started to want more music and more control over the rhythm. That led to very early experimentation with line breaks, stanzas, rhyme, some forms. I imitated the limited range of contemporary poetry available to me, which was almost entirely children?s poetry.
When I was 11 I had a poem called ?Night? published in an anthology called Of Sunshine and Daydreams, which was put out by vanity press Poetry.com?though this was back in the pre-internet days, when it was the National Library of Poetry. The anthology was a massive hardback made of tissue-thin paper, and they shoved in six or seven poems per page. When you Google the name of the collection, you get a lot of obituaries. People are proud to have been published in those kinds of collections, and I get it. I was proud. I know how those vanity presses work now, but that doesn?t sully that early sense of pride.
Much of my early inspiration came from song lyrics. That permission to be weird, to be ?off? with language, was granted by albums like Radiohead?s OK Computer and (though it?s become clich? for young woman to name it as an inspiration, it?s still brilliant) Tori Amos?s Little Earthquakes. In high school I?d write strange poems that thrilled and scared me, and I?d hide them in my closet. I didn?t want to destroy them, but didn?t want anyone to find them either. I was always confessing, but I wasn?t ready to do it out loud.
I didn?t realize poetry could be more than a hobby until much later. I went to college to be a graphic designer, but disagreed fundamentally with the way the art school?s core classes were taught?I grasped the concepts, like positive and negative space, and line (elements that exist in poetry, too, of course), but I didn?t have a drawing, or sculpture, or crafting background. Just photography and digital graphic design. I wanted to complete the exercises with Adobe Illustrator, not construction paper. And I?m receiving C minuses in 2-D Design because there?s a sliver of glue sticking out from under a construction paper circle, and my mat board?the board that just frames the actual work?isn?t cut at a precise 90-degree angle. We?re doing an exercise on repetition, and the goal is to explore various ways to achieve unity, but I?m spending days re-drawing the same icon a thousand times across a poster-sized piece of paper, until the work is all tedium and no theory, no thought.
My argument that those core classes should be about the concepts themselves, expressed through whatever medium?and not how skilled you are with rubber cement?fell on deaf ears. I did not belong there. Meanwhile, in freshman composition, we?re having a poetry week, and I am writing poems for that class to procrastinate?writing poems to avoid having to do my art school homework. And it is challenging, very challenging, but it?s the only thing I want to do. So that was my light bulb moment. I switched majors and took every writing class the English department offered.
Who are some of your influences?
I like a broad range of poetry, but when I?m reading for inspiration, I have to read poets working on very high emotion. The work needs to be both visceral and smart, both strange but accessible?on a bodily level, at least. I need that extreme just to hit my midpoint.
Frank Bidart was one of the first poets to truly engage me on an emotional level, to make me want to understand poetry. I didn?t know what was happening to me when I read Desire for the first time, but I wanted to re-read until I could unlock that feeling. That book gave me an awareness of my limitations that was both scary and motivating. Poetry was a secret, something that I could feel but couldn?t yet crack open.
How does your creative process work?
I am a polite, neurotic person hiding a selfish, hotheaded, strong-willed person underneath. The selfish one is the better writer. Much of my writing time is spent getting to that second self. What helps: a glass of wine, good music, looking at photojournalism blogs, browsing Wikipedia for peculiar articles. Sometimes I stack six or seven books of poetry up and just forage, picking up words and thoughts. I feel guilty about that, but there?s no room for guilt. I often have to play word games with myself to get the music going in my head. And then I?m ready to write a very messy first draft, free to confess without fear of offending. If I?m typing three words, deleting them, typing three more words, deleting those, I know I?m not open yet.
It?s usually a couple of hours of this mental stretching, and then 45 minutes of writing quickly and furiously, and I?ve got a first draft. It would be nice if the warm-up was shorter, but it is what it is.
Revision is something I can do in either state.
You recently won the Brittingham Prize. Can you tell us about the process of creating a manuscript and its final route to publication?
A poet I admire promised me early in the process that the manuscript would find its own shape without much intentional influence on my part. She said I didn?t need to know what the book was ?about? yet. I knew that my obsessions were infused into each poem, and that no matter how disparate the subject matter or speaker from poem to poem?whether it?s a bride in Khartoum, an ?80s teen mourning Samantha Smith, and the wife of a firefighter recovering from a decade-long coma?that idea of manipulation and deception in mourning, memory, art, and motherhood would be the cable through which all of the poems would speak to each other. So then it just became a question of order.
When it was time to build the book, my friends Carolyn Creedon, Christa Romanosky, Yasmine Dalena and I spread the poems out on the floor of Carolyn?s apartment, and I said, all I know is there are three sections. Florida, Fever Dreams, and Natural Disasters. And one will contain many of the narrative poems about my childhood, and will provide the context in which the other sections should be read. And the next is a series of wild dreams, dreamt during the illness of adolescence?that crazed phase when reality and the dream state are indistinguishable. And the last section is adulthood, and the inevitability of things, of maybe becoming the mother you lost, but a warped, manipulated version of that mother and that memory. And these three brilliant writers indulged me and refereed me as I moved the puzzle pieces around. Things were ready to snap into place within that very strange structure. Once I?d created the structure of the sections, the poems knew where they needed to go.
I love that the order that revealed itself wasn?t completely chronological. I know that my time travel obsession is present in Darkroom. There?s a poem in the book about the moment when I learn that my mother has died. And the next poem jumps back seven years, and I?ve been dropped off (by my mother) at elementary school, but school is closed that day. I?m stranded. I end up in a donut shop down the street, and the owner helps me call home, but no one answers. The phone just rings, and rings, and rings.
When I wrote the second poem, that ringing phone was an unimportant detail. It was just atmosphere, just a connecting piece in the narrative. But when I tried placing the poem out of chronological order, right after the poem where I learn she?s died, the moment changes. It?s not that she isn?t home. It?s that she?s already gone. Now, when I read the words ?no one answers,? I feel that her death was always there, built into the beginning.
After I had the order down, I printed out the book and?honestly?kissed the manila envelope before I shoved it into the mailbox to send it off to the University of Wisconsin Press. There?s very little I can offer about book prize contests beyond that little bit of superstition about the kiss. There isn?t a special secret or tip that I can provide, except that my name may have stood out in the pile. So: have a memorable name.
Hit us with one your poems:
From Darkroom, originally published in Bellingham Review:
DARKROOM
The body erased. Light birthing the image.
The hand?s obstruction removes an eye, a rib.
It happened this way:
the soft infrareds not red
but black, engraved in the colloid. The choked look
of the projector, the jam-capped reds of filters
and their choice of contrast intensity?darker
and darker, the sooted blood. Color deciding
how white is your white on gloss or matte.
This power trip and scare. We were looking
inside the grain, wrenching the focus knob,
the negative sharpened
but observed through mirrors.
This could have been creation:
the tendon and mouth, blank
of the background bound in the space, were seen;
halide silver and dirt clinging,
separating, finding the natural shape.
Then, we had our desires. And tricks
of the hand and light. We made our demands.
So the salts formed the backs of spoons
or fish scales,
or human smoke. And images in silver
that were not silver: a few teeth flashing
in the soil.
We mangled our subjects after the shot?
technique hushing the grain. The body had its hunger
and its words, the agitations and stop baths, the vinegar and burn
and fingernails blacked. Our brutal selves reeling
the strips onto spools. The world made new,
and blooming, and dumb.
What are you working on at the moment?
A second manuscript?a pile of poems that will reflect a new obsession. I don?t plan to write another book about my mother, though I?m sure she will find her way in.
Where can we find more of your poetry?
I have two new poems?not from Darkroom?in Copper Nickel?s issue 17, which was just released.

Witness on Lindsay Lohan Club Melee: I Broke it Up!
Lindsay Lohan was in fact involved in a skirmish at a nightspot in L.A. recently ... at least according to a witness who allegedly saw it go down.
A man who worked at the Standard Hotel the night Lohan attacked a woman (supposedly) claims he saw Lindsay there, and even broke it up!
Marisa Dugas went to the L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. and filed an incident report, claiming she was at Smoke and Mirrors inside The Standard.
It went down Thursday night when she approached Lindsay's table and started talking to a guy, and Lindsay allegedly pushed and shoved her.
Lindsay insists she was at home the entire evening.
The man who worked that night claims he saw Lindsay Lohan in Smoke and Mirrors sitting with a group of people when all hell broke loose.
He says Marisa sat down near them and began speaking with one of the guys, and that for whatever reasons, people in the group threw ice at her.
Marisa got upset and a scuffle erupted, with Lindsay part of the scuffle. The witness says he then broke it up and Dugas was escorted out of the club.
Crying, she claimed Lindsay hurt her, but refused medical attention.
There are no pictures that have surfaced of Lindsay at the Standard Thursday night, but the man says there is a surveillance video that might.
The alleged witness has spoken to the police about this.
L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. personnel have already requested the surveillance tape three times from the hotel, but management won't give it up.
This could all be an attempt to frame her - it's his word against hers until proof surfaces, and it's a minor incident - but that's what he says.

What Pet dog Groomers Don't Want You to Know
A number of most people drop their canine off at a groomer and never ever actually give it a 2nd assumed. In most scenarios their puppies are returned browsing sharp and smelling good. Even so there have been quite a few instances where by this has not been the situation. Dying and injuries at the pet grooming salon is an extra typical event then it must be. Sorry to say their purely are not many regulations in area when it happens to protecting our furry adored kinds from hurt.
There have been a lot of scenarios of canines that have been left in cage dryers and overlooked before it was also late. There have been scenarios of ears, tongues, and tails currently being flat out lower off by a negligent groomers. Dogs have been burned by clippers or gotten ear infections owing to drinking water coming into the ear canal when being bathed. The most regrettable issue is that most all of these scenarios could have been simply prevented.
What most men and women do not know is that in a lot of states there are no rules are legal guidelines to ruled pet groomers. There is no license necessary, no inspections manufactured and no suggestions that will have to be adopted. This indicates that everyone with a pair of clippers can name themselves a puppy or pet groomer and it is certainly legal. They can have no training what so ever. Even the so called ?Certified? Groomer is not essentially accurately experienced to manage your pet. There are countless grooming educational institutions that make available this so called certification and to be totally genuine most of it implies positively next to nothing. There are even on the internet classes that make available certification. There is no way that you can find out all there is to know about competently handling pets and grooming on the net. There are certifications that are alot more legit then other people and some do have earned regard. Groomers that have been certified Grasp Groomers by the Nationwide Dog Grooming Affiliation have proven their talents time and time all over again in purchase to find this title. However there are a large number of faculties that are certifying folks as ?Learn Groomers? that have no actual screening nor do they have the suitable to use this title. The NDGAA had the expression Learn Groomer Copy Righted lots of a long time in the past and the only real Learn Groomers are licensed by NDGAA.
Even though your regular pet proprietor does not know this. The most beneficial way for a groomer to master is to serve a substantial apprenticeship below a skilled groomer. This apprenticeship really should final at the very least 2 many years. However there are many educational facilities turning groomers out in two weeks or at times even a lot less. There are several excellent groomers who are self-confident in their skills and are a great deal more then professional to groom pets. Though, these fly by night time colleges that are turning out the so referred to as Qualified Groomers are seriously diminish the earned accomplishments of true pet dog groomers. Pet proprietors almost everywhere should really be outraged.
Pet proprietors really should extensively query their groomers about how and just where they learned to groom well before leaving their cherished types in his or her care. Will not be scared to talk to it seriously could be an everyday living or loss of life make any difference for your pet dog. Worried pet proprietors will need to also start off producing their congressman and state governments about regulating the pet grooming sector for the benefit of most people. If your groomer is not ?Accredited? never get worried they can be an superb groomer who has figured out the suitable way. In excess of several years of apprenticeship which you can not educate in a two week study course. If your groomer is ?Certified? I would run except if it is from the NDGAA or other upstanding grooming affiliation. Most of all do not be scared to consult how extended they have been grooming and how extended it took them to get this ?Certification?.

Lowering glucose levels for people with diabetes is normally critical to improving health outcomes. But for those with heart failure, that might not always be the case, say UCLA researchers. A new study found that for advanced heart failure patients with diabetes, having higher blood glucose levels may actually help improve survival rates. Currently published online in the American Journal of Cardiology, UCLA researchers compared levels of a marker used to track glucose levels called glycosylated hemoglobin in advanced heart failure patients with and without diabetes...

Goodell upholds penalties in Saints bounty case
NEW YORK (AP) ? Roger Goodell sent a message to every coach and player in the NFL: safety first. The league commissioner stuck with his punishments for New Orleans' pay-for-pain bounties on Monday, rejecting Saints coach Sean Payton's appeal of a season-long suspension.
An NFL investigation found that, under Payton's watch, an assistant ran a program offering cash payouts for hits that knocked targeted opponents out of games or hurt them so badly they needed help getting to the sideline.
Next on Goodell's agenda: discipline for players involved in the bounty program that began in 2009, the season the Saints won the Super Bowl.
Given recent history, at least some of those penalties are likely to be tough, too.
The Saints case represents perhaps the starkest example yet of the sea change that the NFL has undergone since medical research and media reports on the long-term damage suffered by football players through concussions began to gain attention.
As recently as October 2009, while testifying before Congress, Goodell did not acknowledge a link between head injuries on the field and brain diseases later in life. And hundreds of NFL retirees are now suing the league for health problems they say began with their playing careers.
Yet the league has taken a series of steps to better protect players in the past couple of years, and just last month expanded the definition of "defenseless players" who may not be hit in the head or neck and cannot be hit by someone leading with a helmet.
While NFL veterans say off-the-books incentives have been around for years, and some current players claim tough talk about hitting opponents where they are injured happens in locker rooms throughout the league, Goodell responded to the Saints case by handing out unprecedented penalties.
In addition to upholding Payton's suspension, which begins next Monday and runs through the Super Bowl in February 2013 ? by coincidence, in New Orleans ? Goodell also affirmed suspensions of eight games for Saints general manager Mickey Loomis and six games for assistant head coach Joe Vitt. He also kept in place a $500,000 fine for the franchise and the loss of draft picks this year and next.
Loomis, who along with the team declined comment Monday, and Vitt begin their suspensions after the preseason ends.
Former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, who left the Saints in January to join the St. Louis Rams, ran the bounty program and has been suspended indefinitely. He did not appeal.
Suspensions for New Orleans players who participated in the bounty pool could be coming within days.
Goodell set a precedent last season when he made Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh sit out for two games after stomping on an opponent, and Steelers linebacker James Harrison one game for a brutal tackle that gave Browns quarterback Colt McCoy a concussion.
The NFL has said as many as 27 players also could be sanctioned in the scandal. That might include former Saints defensive regulars who have signed elsewhere.
The league's investigation found that Williams' bounty system, which ran from 2009 through 2011, offered cash payments of $1,500 for "knockouts," in which an opposing player was knocked out of a game, or $1,000 for "cart-offs," in which an opponent needed help off the field. The league has said the bounty pool grew as large as $50,000.
The investigation also found that Payton initially lied about the existence of a bounty program and instructed his defensive assistants to do the same.
Goodell showed a bit of leniency Monday, saying in a statement if Payton, Loomis and Vitt "embrace the opportunity and participate in a constructive way," he would consider reducing the financial penalties on them. None of them has been fined, but each will lose significant amounts while not being paid their salaries during the suspensions. Payton, who twice apologized for his role in the bounties, could lose more than $6 million.
Goodell added he would consider modifying the forfeiture of the team's 2013 second-round draft choice, perhaps to a lower round. But New Orleans still will receive a draft penalty next year and will lose this year's second-round pick.
While the Saints await punishment for some players, they have the not-so-small task of finding an interim coach to replace Payton. They have talked to Bill Parcells, Payton's mentor since their days together in Dallas, about coming out of retirement.
Parcells, who turns 71 in August, has said he would consider coaching the Saints if asked to help his former protege. Parcells won two Super Bowls with the New York Giants and took the New England Patriots to a Super Bowl, but has not coached since retiring from the Cowboys after the 2006 season, though he then worked in Miami's front office.
If the Saints were to hire Parcells or anyone from outside the organization, the club would have to interview a minority candidate to comply with the NFL's "Rooney Rule."
Of course, the Saints could decide to promote from within the current staff, which has three strong candidates: offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and offensive line coach Aaron Kromer.
Vitt also could be a candidate to step in, as he did briefly last season when Payton broke his leg, once his suspension ends.
Because Loomis can remain as GM until late summer, he will oversee the draft in late April and handle other roster moves. Loomis had been told by Saints owner Tom Benson to ensure that the bounty program was dismantled, but did not act.
Payton has said he laid out plans for the offseason training program and the late July beginning of training camp. The Saints play Arizona in the Hall of Fame game Aug. 5 in Canton, Ohio, the league's first preseason game.

Home Improving That Won't Bust Your Budget | Home Remodeling ...
Article by Rex Haney
As we all know, budgeting and home improvement does not always go together but this article will give you information that could help improve your home and still save a little money.
Home improvement projects regularly scare people off, because many judge that they will pay thousands of dollars to alter one room, because they do not have the skills to do the job them self. They may also feel that the job is costly because supplies and tools are needed.
To the contrary, home improvement does not have to be costly at all. Of course, if you hire a subcontractor or contractor to do the job, you will pay a fortune, but if you have patience and the ability to read and stick to the directions, then you can renovate an whole room in your home for fewer than a hundred dollars. Of course, you will need to change and correlate materials.
Before starting the procedure of improving your home, you will need to system of funds and a schedule to get started. You will need to ponder various notions when considering and preparing home improvement. For example, do you plan to paint your home? Do you plan to tile your home? Do you want carpet in your home?
Going through the final part of this article, you will see just how important budgeting and home improvement can be done which will help save you money and improve your home.
Asking questions is part of analyzing and preparing for home improvement. One of the best tools to have when considering home improvement is calculating what you like and calculating what you want. When I improve my home the first thing I do is explore my mind searching for favorites and what excites and appeals to me. Thus, when I go to the home improvement warehouses, I already have in my brain what I am ready to purchase, therefore this relaxes my quest to improving my home.
If you are short of funds to improve your home, then setting up a financial plan will help you get what you want as well as put away some cash for a rainy day. You may even think about purchasing equipment and tools for home improvement at the companies that propose lower prices and/or purchases with no payments until a particular date. This notion will give you time to get your home better while putting away the currency to purchase the improvement equipment and tools.
Unfortunately, many people go for another home loan to enhance their home. Receiving loans from lenders regularly lead to debt, and home loans for improvement only leads to paying off your home twice. Thus, elude high interest rates and loan payments and learn to plan your finances to improve your home.
Let me give you a general view of what one area could cost you for repairs. Say you want to paint a specific room in your home. You will need plaster, sealers, primer, paints, paint thinners, scrapers, screwdriver, paint opening (often come with paint purchases), patches, paintbrushes, tray, and so forth. Now you may think this will cost you a lot of money to improve your home, but to the contrary, you are wrong.
The paint and tools will cost you the most, while the other items will be priced less; thus, primer, sealers and plaster be priced around fifteen dollars if you go to the correct store.
Paint thinners, trays, brushes and screwdriver will cost around fifteen dollars if you go to the right store. Thus, the patches should be purchased with a plaster kit, which will salvage you a few pennies. The paint will cost around twenty dollars per can, depending on the kind of paint purchased. Therefore, for around a hundred bucks you could alter a room in your home lacking hiring anybody to do the job providing you stick to the instructions.
What about the bathroom, can you alter the room on a financial plan? It depends on the range of the area, but if you are yearning to tile your bathroom and paint the walls you could get the job done for around a hundred bucks give or take. If you go to the correct home improvement store and know what you are doing, you could remodel a small bathroom or average bathroom for around fifty bucks.
Learning to create a financial plan and prepare for home improvements can help you to remodel your whole home (if the home is in good standings) for a few hundred dollars. Furthermore, completing the work yourself, you will recoup you thousands of dollars.
Having this budget and home improvement information handy will help you a great deal the next time you find yourself in need of it.
