BlackBerry CEO 'Pleased' With $42 Million Loss
TheStreet) --
(BBRY) announced that it narrowed its losses but revenue continued to sink in the fiscal fourth quarter. But that didn't stop CEO John Chen from boasting that he was "pleased" with the results.
Although reporting a $42 million loss on revenue of $976 million (off 18% from the previous quarter and 64% from the year before), the loss was only 8 cents a share, excluding one-time charges. Analysts had been predicting a loss of 55 cents. GAAP loss was $423 million, or 80 cents share.
Blackberry shares were gaining nearly 2% to $9.22 in premarket trading following the announcement.
Revenue estimates had been $1.1 billion following last quarter's $1.19 billion and last year's $2.7 billion fourth-quarter numbers. In the latest fourth quarter, $546.6 million came from BlackBerry services ($562 million has been estimated), $362.1 million from hardware ($446 estimated.) while $68.3 million came from software after estimates had been in the $59 million range.
Adjusted fourth-quarter gross margin was 43%, up from 34% in the fourth quarter a year earlier. Total operating expenses were down significantly from $906 million a year ago and $865 million in the previous quarter to $601 million in the fourth quarter. Analysts had been predicting $766 million.
The company is hoping to report a positive cash flow by this time next year. Chen said "BlackBerry is on sounder financial footing today with a path to returning to growth and profitability."
In the previous quarter, BlackBerry announced it sold less than 2 million smartphones, which was off more than 70% from its sales numbers in the previous year. The company was forced to take a $1.6 billion write-off on its unsold inventory, mostly from new BB10 smartphone devices. And that was on top of a nearly $1 billion inventory hit it had to deal with in the previous quarter.
To help the situation, Blackberry has entered into a five-year partnership agreement with Foxconn to manufacture its smartphones. It is also in the process of restructuring all of its businesses, firing employees (for the most part in its devices division) and selling off real estate properties in the U.S. and Canada and leasing back space for a newer, leaner company.
BlackBerry is hoping its recent moves will help slash the company's operating costs in half by the end of its first quarter in May.
The company has begun having some success by offering its BBM service to Apple (AAPL) users as well as fans of Google (GOOG) Android devices from Samsung, LG and others. "Line" and "WeChat," in particular, have been good at generating in-app streams of revenue by offering
BlackBerry's appeal to enterprise users still remains strong despite a somewhat constant drain of customers to other platforms. It was down from nearly 80 million in 2013 to a reported 55 million at the end of last quarter. BBRY has been trying to counter the steady customer drain with its BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) offerings for iOS and Android devices.

Faith Leaders, Gun Violence Survivors, Veterans, And Gun Reform Advocates To Host Roundtable Demanding Action On Gun Violence From Senators Chambliss And Isakson
Coalition Continues to Call on Congress for Commonsense Gun Laws; www.DemandAction.org
ATLANTA, April 10, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Mayors Against Illegal Guns, the largest gun violence prevention advocacy organization in the country, will join with faith leaders, gun violence survivors, veterans, and gun safety advocates for a roundtable discussion on Thursday, April 11 at 11:00 a.m. ET at The Temple Sinai. With momentum building on Capitol Hill to pass commonsense gun laws, roundtable participants will call on Senator Isakson and Senator Chambliss to support the new bipartisan Manchin-Toomey legislation that will expand background checks.
WHO: -Rabbi Elena Perry -Gun safety advocates, veterans, gun violence survivors and faith leadersWHAT: Roundtable discussion calling on Senators Chambliss and Isakson to support commonsense gun laws WHEN: Thursday, April 11 at 11:00 a.m. WHERE: The Temple Sinai 5645 Dupree Drive NW Atlanta, GA 30327 About Mayors Against Illegal Guns Since its creation in April 2006, Mayors Against Illegal Guns has grown from 15 members to more than 900 mayors from across the country.

1952 Chevrolet Corvette C1 EX-122 Prototype news, pictures, specifications, and information
Chassis Num: EX 122
In 1953 the Corvette was debuted at the Motorama display at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York City. It was conceived by Harley J. Earl. It was a two seat convertible built by GM aimed at capturing the small car market from manufacturers like Jaguar and MG. All 1953 Corvettes were convertibles with black canvas tops, Polo white with red interiors, and built by hand.
Power came from an existing Chevrolet 235 cubic inch 6 cylinder engine. Modifications were done to it such as a three carburetor design and dual exhaust which resulted in higher horsepower ratings. The 150 hp 'Blue Flame Special' engine was paired with a a2-speed automatic gearbox. The first twenty-five vehicles used the standard Chevrolet 'baby moon' passenger car wheel covers due to a shortage of wheel covers.
During the 1953 production year, 300 Corvettes were produced making it the rarest Corvette. 255 are still in existence. In 1953 the base price for the Corvette was $3,498 with a heater and AM radio offered as optional equipment. The heater could be purchased for $91.40 and the AM Radio for $145.15.

lavendrinnot the way I thought it would go..
I always thought of the PC as a kind of backup or gap year placeholder. Now that I am at a full time job… I realized that I want to do it for different reasons. I don't want to be the person who hops from job to job, hoping to find satisfaction in emptiness. That's the way I feel like I am going if I stay in my present, fairly well-paying job. I want to do something that makes a real, physical, tactile difference, and I don't care if it's just a few people in one small town in South America or Africa. I am just tired of looking at things from the high point-of-view. I want to be on the ground, in the trenches, experiencing the world, with suffering and happiness and failure and happiness, real time.
I have sent in my citizenship application and the next step will be to draft my essays for the PC application. I wonder if I can still access the old half-filled application from last year… 6 months ago

Loved The Itinerary
My husband and our friends cruised to Athens, Rhodes, Santorini, Bodrum, Ephesus, Split and Dubrovnik. Turkey surprised us as we weren't expecting it to be so clean and the people to be so friendly. It was the best itinerary I could find of the Greek Isles that also included Turkey and Croatia. Athens was our least favorite. 10 other cruise ships were in port so the Acropolis was a madhouse. It was also 95 degrees out and with all those people pushing to get to the top it was not a pleasant experience.
Disembarkation at each port was handled quickly and efficiently by the crew. The tenders were handled well and everything was quite orderly. In general all the crew onboard were friendly and very helpful. My husband had an accident in our cabin in the middle if the night, striking his head on the nightstand. The cabin steward came within minutes of my calling with a bag of ice for my husband's bloody eye.
Our first night, we arrived for dinner at 6pm and we were not More finished with our meal until 9 due to the inefficiency of our waiter. We missed the first night's entertainment because of it. I mentioned this to guest services and we were given another waiter for the rest of the trip and he was fantastic. Wish I could say that about the food, though. Dinners generally were excellent. I had fish one night hat was I edible, but our waiter quickly replaced it with another entree. How was very honest about the food and always steered us to the better entrees.
Lunch foods at the buffet restaurant were dull, unimaginative and repetitive. Desserts were not very good and I often went to the spa cafe to get a cookie. The spa had a small selection of sandwiches, salads and hot roast beef sandwiches so we often ate here. When in port it was too difficult to be back on board in time for lunch in the main dining room, which had a very limited menu although much better food than the buffet.
We sailed on Celebrity last winter and the food was so much better than RCI I would not return to a RCI ship again.
The entertainment was a big disappointment. The Celine Dion impersonator was OK, and the comedian was quite good. The ship entertainers were so-so and I didn't enjoy their two shows. One night we had a man and woman doing hand shadows of "famous" people that was a real joke. They all looked alike. I have never seen anything so stupid. The best entertainment was the Motown singers, they were really talented.
All in all, I would not sail with RCI again. Less

We've had decades of experience dealing with those who use the Internet with the intent to cause mental or physical distress or harm. We really haven't leveled up? As individuals, communities and corporate entities, do we still lack the will, despite seeing the fruits of apathy and averted eyes?"8 weeks ago
Stop supporting Gamergate
"The enemy of the Gamergate supporter is the so-called 'social justice warrior,' which is a pejorative commonly used to describe basically anyone who feels empathy — a trait that sickens narcissists who believe that listening to another human being and taking their feelings seriously is a form of defeat."9 weeks ago

MyDNS Install Problems -
Hello. First just wanted to say a quick thanks to you guys for ISPConfig and all the hard work that went in to the Perfect Server tutorials. I will be migrating from HSphere 3.1 because when Parallels bought PSoft they decided to jack up the licensing to a 250 license minimum @ $4.50 per license (instead of the previous 25 minimum licenses) which means for my small server with just ~20 users it just doesn't make sense!
I finished the CentOS 5.2 (x86_64) perfect server build. Now I am working on the ISPConfig 3.0 installation. I am at the step that requires me to install MyDNS, and I am using the latest MyDNS-NG package on Sourceforge. I am getting an error that indicates it doesn't see MySQL or Postgresql installed on my box. But indeed, they are actually both installed and running.
[root@datacolony mydns-1.2.8]# ./configure
[root@datacolony mydns-1.2.8]# netstat -tap | grep mysql
[root@datacolony mydns-1.2.8]# whereis mysqld
the perfect setup guide is for ISPConfig 2, it is incompatible with ISPConfig 3.
If you want to use ispconfig 3, please reinstall your server and install it as described in the installation instructions which are in the ispconfig 3 tar.gz file.
Ok will do.
Those instructions are for i386. Will this work on a x86_64 installation of CentOS 5.2?
It only mentions installing 'Development Tools' and 'Development Libraries' - are there any package groups that I need to select during CentOS install? In the Perfect Server config is says...
The perfect setup installation is not related in any kind to ispconfoig 3 and can not be used for ispconfig 3, so it does not matter for ispconfig 3 what is written in the perfect setup guide!
The ispconfig 3 installation should work on 64Bit systems as well. But be aware that support for centos is experimental, if you search for a better tested platform, you should use debian or ubuntu.

Trucking companies complain of too many tractor-trailers chasing too little freight, and carriers such as Swift Transportation, the nation's third-largest truckload carrier, are scouring excess equipment from their fleets, with Phoenix-based Swift alone cutting 4,000 power units.
But not all motor carriers see shrinking as the best road to higher rates and improved profitability. Knight Transportation and Celadon Group are among those holding onto trucks and banking on being able to pick up freight from competitors in a recovery — even if that means giving up some profit in the toughest recession since World War II.
"With freight demand seemingly having bottomed, we decided to maintain our fleet size and prepare for the opportunity for growth rather than reduce the fleet size," Knight said in its third-quarter report. Phoenix-based Knight could have improved its operating ratio in the short-term by shrinking, but it prefers a longer gambit.
"We believe that our level of profitability, fleet renewal strategy and use of owner-operators should enable us to internally finance attractive levels of fleet growth when demand conditions are right," the company said. Its tractor count fell by 48 from a year at the same time last year to 3,752 units. But while it cut 220 company trucks, it added 172 owner-operators.
Other carriers are transforming their equipment pools in similar fashion. USA Truck increased its owner-operator fleet by 58.9 percent in the quarter, to 143 units.
Contractors still operate only 6.2 percent of Van Buren, Ark.-based USA Truck's total fleet of 2,292 tractors, but the company is making a concerted effort to expand its owner-operated fleet. "More than ever before, a greater portion of our fleet is comprised of tractors for which we have made no capital investment," the company said.
Celadon actually increased its tractor fleet 8.5 percent year-over-year in the quarter, bringing it up to 3,221 units, while decreasing the number of trucks it owns by about 600, the Indianapolis-based carrier said in its report. It has 460 tractors — worth $43.4 million — on order for delivery over the next three quarters. Owner-operators account for 9.8 percent of Celadon's capacity, or 317 tractors, up 39.7 percent from a year earlier.
Earlier this year, Chairman and CEO Steve Russell said the company would benefit from deep cuts other carriers made in their fleets. Shippers have asked Celadon to step in when other carriers folded or no longer had the capacity to meet commitments, he said.
Some of Celadon's increase represents "pre-buying" of tractors ahead of new federal emissions requirements that will add substantially to the cost of 2010 models.
"We intend to continue to purchase tractors through 2009," the company said. At the end of the year, "our average truck will be approximately 1.1 years old. We should not have to purchase any tractors in 2010 or possibly 2011 as well."
Used truck values, which have fallen at least 30 percent over the past two years, also keep trucking companies from cutting into their fleets. A glut of low-priced used trucks also threatens carrier balance sheets and borrowing.
Truckers are dealing with that problem in a number of ways. Some take equipment out of service and hold it for sale, which stops depreciation. Others lease vehicles rather than finance ownership, avoiding depreciation, amortization and interest.
At Celadon, 62.8 percent of company tractors are held under operating leases, a 38.5 percent increase from a year earlier. The company expects to use operating leases more in the coming year, increasing its equipment rental expense — but decreasing its risk in the used truck market.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Study says toxic emission spikes at fracking sites rarely monitored
|Anti-fracking demonstrators march at Baltimore City Hall, Feb. 20, 2014. (Amanda Salvucci/Capital News Service/MCT)
People in natural gas drilling areas who complain about nauseating odors, nosebleeds and other symptoms they fear could be caused by shale development are usually told by state regulators that monitoring data show the air quality is fine.
But a new study suggests that the most commonly used air monitoring techniques often underestimate public health threats because they don't catch toxic emissions that spike at various points during gas production. The study, reported this week in the peer-reviewed journal Reviews on Environmental Health, was conducted by the Southwest Pennsylvania Environmental Health Project, a nonprofit based near Pittsburgh.

I hate you all because Borderlands 2 comes out tomorrow
Right now, I'm sitting in a hotel room in Tokyo, preparing my body for the onslaught which will be Tokyo Game Show. I could be at home, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the two copies of Borderlands 2 I ordered for the wife and I to play. But noooooooooo. I had to travel halfway across the world to spend time in a culture that doesn't want me here and write about games with questionable chances of ever being playable in my nation of origin. What an idiot I am.
I guess I'll just have to watch the launch trailer over and over again to compensate. Borderlands 2 arrives tomorrow, as does our review. And don't forget to check out who the Dtoid staff are calling dibs on. I don't want to spoil anything there, but with only two characters left playable, you have a fifty-fifty shot of guessing who I'll be playing.

Taken at Ipswitch Wildlife sanctuary in Ipswitch Massachusetts.
I'm not happy that it didn't come out clear (the camera was on "sport", and a long zoom lens with a slow-speed auto-focus) but I like the scene. I hope you will enjoy it too for what it is: one shot in a thousand.
We had chickadees, titmice and these nuthatches landing on us. I hope to go back again in the summer when more birds have migrated there.

"Altan's music has always been true to the roots from which it has grown, always injecting something new as they approach a set of tunes, or something beautiful when Mairead's voice floats over slow air or a love song. This new album combines all of the freshness that is characteristic of this great band, together with a rare depth and purity that can only come from the souls of superb musicians."
-Bill Whelan
"Scholarly, sophisticated, equally spontaneous in session or in the studio, Altan, once more, enliven their great tradition, confound our expectations and draw us all home to Donegal." - Stephen Rea, actor
"The twin peaks of Dermot Byrne's accordion and Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh's voice and fiddle propel Altan into their 30th year. Byrne's plaintive, high-lonesome tones define the shape of The Blackest Crow with Ní Mhaonaigh's beatific vocals drawing the sorrowful tale ever skywards. Instrumentally, Altan have never sounded better or tighter. They've invited Belfast flute player Harry Bradley to join the fray, and his jagged-edged style adds a refreshing sharpness to several tunes, in particular the opening pair of slip jigs headlined by A Fig for a Kiss. Jimmy Higgins guests on bodhrán, punctuating tunes with his customary subtlety. Altan's song choices are standouts in both Irish and English, and they commandeer the American ballad The Lily of the West as if it was a Gweedore native. This is richly layered musicianship shot through with a verve." -The Irish Times [Read more…]

Igus Inc: Fiber rod assemblies
Igus Inc. offers improved integral fiber rod assemblies inside its multi-axis Triflex R robot cable carriers to increase torsional strength.
Modified iglide bearings on the moving tips of fiber rods can better cope with the extreme twisting movements often demanded in robotic applications. Interior support fiber rods are designed to mount a designated section of Triflex R Energy Chain in a fixed position, This reduces torsion and creates pre-tension through this part of the cable carrier, preventing it from interfering with certain work areas around a robot. Triflex R cable management system is able to move multi-dimensionally in all axes and can twist up to 380 degrees per yard, enabling easy movement through complex configurations. The smooth, tubular design also permits the cable carrier to glide around the exterior of the robot without catching.

One of my favorite genres is what I like to call the "Hey, my life's not actually that bad!" memoir, in which the author recounts the true(ish) story of their severe drug addiction, homelessness, crazy affairs, horrifically bad parents, accidental murder, or some combination of all of the above. Whatever the content matter, these books have one thing in common: by the end, I feel like my life is going pretty well in comparison. In honor of Rad Reads Week, I've compiled a list of 10 memoirs that will help you appreciate your life for a variety of different reasons. Click through to check 'em out…

News International offers new roles to defunct title's top brass
LONDON - Key executives at the now defunct thelondonpaper, including managing director Ian Clark, are to gain new roles with parent News International, although 40 staff have lost their jobs.
Final edition: thelondonpaper
Following the freesheet's final edition on 18 September, editor Stefano Hatfield, head of trading Naim Halloum and marketing director Nicole Refson are also understood to be staying with the group, although details of their roles have yet to be finalised.
The decision by News International to close the paper, announced in August, originally put 60 jobs at risk. About 20 of the affected staff are thought to be staying with the group.
It is thought NI chief executive Rebekah Brookes has given assurances to Clark and Hatfield that they would have new roles.
Halloum has been appointed head of creative solutions, reporting to Abba Newbury, NI solutions director, with immediate effect. He will be responsible for developing commercial partnerships across all four of NI's brands - The Times, The Sunday Times, The Sun and News of the World. Halloum replaces Nick Hammond.
Halloum joined NI in 2006 and previously worked at AdMedia (from 2005 to 2006) and Associated Newspapers, the publisher of the Daily Mail (from 1999 to 2005).
In August, News International announced plans to close thelondonpaper, its free evening newspaper, just three years after it launched.
The paper remained loss-making in its second year, although the loss narrowed markedly from the previous year. According to accounts for the year to 30 June 2008, NI Free Newspapers posted a £12.96m loss.
However, this was down from the £16.48m loss posted during the previous 12 months. NI Free Newspapers was set up on 1 July 2006 and launched thelondonpaper on 4 September the same year.
Announcing the closure, James Murdoch, chairman and chief executive, Europe and Asia, News Corporation, said the performance of the title "[had] fallen short of expectations".

Management of the Swiss industry association SGV is urging the Swiss central bank to give up the franc ceiling of 1.20 versus the euro, NZZ am Sonntag reported, citing the association's internal paper from this month.
The currency peg is "not lastingly positive for the economy," the paper, prepared by the head of economic policy at the association, said according to NZZ am Sonntag. Starting an exit strategy early is important for the economy, the newspaper said, citing the paper.

Since 1962, owner and U.S. Coast Guard?licensed captain Terry Buzzard has gotten to know the San Juan Islands and surrounding miles of water pretty well. Having hauled mail for the Post Office, salvaged wrecks, assisted in oil spill cleanups, and ferried passengers throughout the San Juan Islands, he has built quite a resum? of seafaring. This relationship with water isn't so surprising considering he began boating at the age of 3 when he was allowed to pilot a single-horsepower boat by himself with his trained rescue dog, Rusty.
Regardless of the actual job he's performing, Terry is always drawn to whales. By 1978, this fascination lead him to chartering trips specifically for whale watching, especially toward the schools of orca that made the region their home. Looking back, he's pretty certain his boat was the only one in the area at the time dedicated to the thrill of witnessing some of the world's largest and most beautiful animals. Today, the waters are spotted with various boats filled with passengers snapping pictures of the great aquatic beasts and shouting ululations whenever one smacks its enormous tail against the water, takes a playful leap, or belts a Mariah Carey song.
Terry's boat, the 110-foot Island Caper, provides generous sightlines to all passengers via its spacious outdoor deck and ample indoor viewing areas, and is decked out with a 34-speaker sound system. In business for 53 years, Island Mariner Whale Watching's unparalleled time and experience on the water offers cruise-goers an ideal experience, and also employs a seaplane to help spot whales and guide tours. With his chief navigator??a 8-year-old airedale terrier also named Rusty??Terry is right out there amid the excitement, ferrying whale watchers and sharing his life-long passion.
Inside Paddlewheeler Riverboat Cruises' signature vessel, the MV Native, captains transport passengers 100 years back in time when scores of paddle wheelers churned through the rivers of British Columbia. Before the authentic vessel casts off into the Fraser River, the crew tailors each voyage to a different theme that treat passengers to off land DJ dance parties, views of local wildlife, and journeys to historic locales such as Fort Langley. Their boat also plays host to special occasions including weddings and private parties. Towering mountain ranges act as a backdrop for each tour, and the ship's white and red exterior greets eyes with a classic design that echoes the Canadian flag flown at its bow and the giant candy cane used to anchor its stern.
The abundance of natural splendour surrounding Burnaby's small lake inspired the creation of Deer Lake Boat Rentals. With blue herons standing tall in the waters, eagles soaring overhead, and turtles playing duck-duck-goose with Canadian geese, the region is teeming with wildlife. Fourteen years under the current ownership and opened in 1972, Deer Lake Boat Rentals rent kayaks, rowboats, pedal boats, and canoes to make the lake and its wildlife accessible to families. They are also equally focused on safety, so they provide all the requisite necessities, including lifejackets and staff a skilled crew ready to assist in any way necessary.
Located in Anacortes, the "Gateway to the San Juan Islands", Anacortes Yacht Charters has established itself as the leading charter company with the largest selection of power and sail boats available for charter in the San Juans and Gulf Islands.
From the views of snow-capped mountains and the cascading Granite Falls of Indian Arm to the bustling public market of Granville Island, the Vancouver area overflows with seafaring escapes. Realizing the abundance of sandy beaches meeting lush green forests, diverse wildlife, totem poles, and charming seaside villages, the owners of Lonsdale Boat Rentals decided they needed to give locals and visitors easy access to the region's splendour. To accomplish this, they offer rentals of Hourston Glascrafts, Bayliners, and fishing boats to licensed boaters. They also create customizable sightseeing tours piloted by experienced captains who ferry passengers to Bowen Island for a coffee or to Deep Cove for dinner at a seaside restaurant. To accommodate groups, the team can charter 40- to 80-foot boats, allowing corporate outings, private parties, or the Brady Bunch's family reunion to take place in a scenic setting.
Hundreds of marine vendors and yacht brokers set up temporary homes on floating platforms at Mosquito Creek Marina for the Boat Show at the Creek. Along with family-friendly events during each of the fest's days, guests can attend daily boating seminars aboard the Celebration on Water, a refurbished BC ferry. A beer garden and food court are open every day, and guests are welcome to arrive by boat, bring their canine companions, or have the family dog drive the boat before hanging out in the beer garden.

And then there were four. For the first time this season, a female finalist was eliminated on American Idol Thursday night. Who was it?
Kree Harrison
It was Ladies' Night on American Idol Wednesday, with the Top 5 females each performing two songs — one from the year of their birth (get ready to feel old, Idol viewers) and one by a diva. The competition is now officially on, with none of those pesky guys hogging votes in what has been universally acknowledged as a girl's year. So who became the front-runner going into Thursday's results show? Here's a breakdown of the performances:
Janelle Arthur
Before American Idol's results show Thursday, the question on everyone's minds was whether Lazaro Arbos would survive another week or whether the show would have its first-ever all-female Top 5 heading into the final weeks.
Candice Glover
The rankings got shaken up on American Idol Thursday night, and tears were shed during the elimination. Did the judges use their save? Keep reading to find out.
Lazaro Arbos
The reality show gods bestowed a gift upon American Idol this season, and his name was Lazaro Arbos. A chronic stutterer who grew up a bullied loner because of his speech pattern, but whose voice is smooth as butter when he sings, the handsome 21-year-old's backstory is the type of reality producers' dreams...
read more
OneRepublic, Katherine McPhee
The girls continued their domination on another American Idol elimination night Thursday, and the judges actually had to debate at length for once about whether or not to use their save. Did someone get sent home? Keep reading to find out.
Paul Jolley
Paul Jolley became the second casualty of American Idol's Top 10 last Thursday, when he was voted off of the show during Beatles Week following a performance of "Eleanor Rigby." Check out our interview with the 23-year-old Tennessee native to find out why he picked Heart's "Alone" for his farewell song and to get his unfiltered thoughts on the judges' panel...
read more
Jimmy Iovine
Move over Nicki and Mariah, a new feud is brewing on the set of Fox's American Idol. Thursday night's results show, which saw the departure of Paul Jolley, featured harsh words from Interscope Records chairman and mentor Jimmy Iovine, who called out the judges for being too complimentary and confusing in their critiques. Those words did not sit well with the judges, who challenged Iovine directly when TV Guide Magazine caught up with them backstage just moments after the show wrapped.
Casey Abrams
The field of finalists was narrowed to eight on American Idol Thursday, but before any of the results were read, mentor Jimmy Iovine had some feedback of his own for the judges, whom he essentially said were being way too soft on the contestants at this stage in the competition.
It was the guys' turn to be subjected to the sudden death round on Thursday's American Idol. Following the same format as the ladies a night earlier, the first group of guy semifinalists — 10 in total — performed for the judges, and five were sent home at the end of the night.
Next week, the Vegas rounds continue, with the remaining 10 guys and 10 girls performing on Wednesday and Thursday respectively. After five eliminations each night, just 20 finalists will remain as this season's competition heads into the live rounds.
By all accounts, Season 12 seems to be the year for a girl to win, so how did the guys measure up? Here's a breakdown of who stayed in the competition and who was eliminated.

Blondie 'Pass' on Sochi Olympics Gig, But Russian Police 'Get Lucky' Again
Plus, Ginuwine perfectly scores Plushenko's skating striptease
Like the legend of the phoenix, the Russian Police Choir's performance of Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" has risen once again. This time, the group reprised its Opening Ceremony cover for NBC's Today live from Sochi. You can watch Al Roker enjoy the heck out of that moment on the special NBC Olympics site. Ironically, the same men singing "We've come too far to give up who we are," are the same theoretically tasked with ridding their nation's streets of "gay propaganda."
It is for that exact reason and other institutionalized human rights violations therein that Blondie rejected an invitation to perform at the 2014 Winter Olympics. As The Hollywood Reporter notes, Debbie Harry hit Twitter over the weekend to share a scan of an offer letter promising the band a 45-minute set on the same stage where the athletes receive their medals each night. Scrawled in thick black marker over the top are the words, "PASS" and "HUMAN RIGHTS."
Madonna and Elton John are among those who've criticized Russia's discriminatory policies. Most recently, Russian Orthodox church leader Patriarch Cyril shared his abhorrent thoughts on gay marriage with Russian wire service Interfax: "Never before in the history of humankind, was the state law used to justify sin. Even the pagans didn't have anything like that, although the pagans' understanding of sin was very vague." Latvian band Brainstorm will replace Blondie.
Thankfully, there's another moment of muso-Olympian synchronicity that's free to enjoy regardless of your stance on modern Russian policy. Fans of the competition will no doubt remember Evgeni Plushenko's 2001 strip-tease routine (fake muscle suit and all) set to Tom Jones' "Sex Bomb." Well, now a genius YouTube user has uploaded the footage soundtracked by Ginuwine's "Pony," via Noisey, and it's awesome. Hit play above if you've somehow avoided doing so already.
Debbie Harry's nixed Olympics gig proposal:
