Taking Loyalty's Measure
THE DEBATE OVER attitudinal research vs. product use history won't likely be settled soon, but now at least it has a moderator. Segway, a new joint venture between ACNielsen U.S. and Market Facts Inc., offers marketers a way to link behavior analysis, such as consumption patterns, and brand perception research.
Marketers who put their trust in product-use indicators hold that consumption equals affinity. According to these marketers, frequent flyer program participants, who make several trips a year, are a more desirable target for promotions than dilettante flyers who make only one or two trips but express a desire to travel often.
Those who believe in attitudinal research say that an airline basing decisions on behavior will learn only about the use of its product, not about a consumer's total involvement in an industry – such as the total number of flights taken in a year. There could be more business to gain from this consumer – or worse, total defection.
Segway combines ACNielsen's Homescan Consumer Panel, a projectable sample of U.S. consumers who scan their packaged goods purchases into in-home readers, with Market Facts' Conversion Model. The Conversion Model measures the strength of consumers' self-reported brand commitment. It then ranks consumers either secure in their loyalty or vulnerable to switching due to such market forces as price, promotion or packaging.
The model also anticipates the potential of consumers to switch their alliances, labeling them either receptive or not to trying a new brand.
Segway is particularly useful for building market share in mature markets. The Homescan data offers a snapshot of a given good's consumption volume, while Market Facts lets a DMer target segments based on their propensity to switch, as well as the potential share of the market each segment represents.
Homescan's data is most valuable for packaged goods analysis. Brand-loyal buyers within a category can be rewarded through special programs, packaging designed for greater consumption levels, or discounts. Consumers susceptible to switching can receive offers for bonus packs; receptive non-buyers can be targeted with high-value incentives.
Careful list choices, made using this service, along with targeted prospect marketing, become a possibility even for low-margin goods. If a marketer still finds direct mail too costly, kiosks and checkout coupons, along with Internet-based programs, may benefit a tighter budget.

I respect all religions as a path to God. I believe in God, Jesus, faith and Love. I also believe that our understanding of God and spiritual values are central to our healing as taught in the bible as the word of God. I specialize in Metapsychiatry (going beyond sickness to health) which sees man as spiritual image and likeness of God and all illness as a reflection of beliefs in separation base on ego-confirmation and ego gratification. True Healing in the integration of Mind, Body and Spirit and Optimum mental health is learning to surrender our ego and realization of our spiritual Christ nature expressed as Peace, Assurance, Gratitude and Love.
Looking for a Christian Marriage and Family Therapist? It can be difficult to find a therapist that will be supportive of your faith and help you grow in your understanding and relationship with God. As a therapist I am specially equipped for this. I attended Fuller Seminary where I was specifically trained to integrate faith and psychology. I perform couples, individual, family and child therapy and specialize in the treatment of sexual addiction. Call today for 50% off the first consultation session!
I received my Marriage and Family Therapy education at Bethel Seminary where I was trained to integrate my Christian faith with effective therapy practices. Human beings are created in the image of a God who is relational within his being. We are made for relationship. I have a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families find relationship healing and develop solutions to life's challenges that are consistent with their Christian faith. Sometimes life can lead us to crises of faith. It is helpful to have a supportive relationship with a therapist as we work out our faith. Contact me. I look forward to supporting you in your journey to healing.
Carole is passionate about helping believers find hope and healing! She has worked with overseas missionaries and Christian nationals, and is aware of the importance of confidentiality and of having a safe place to discuss your concerns. Carole uses only those approaches that she believes are compatible with Christian principles. Contact Carole if you have questions or to schedule a session.
My career in psychotherapy began as a desire to do spiritual direction, helping people find their calling in life, meaning and purpose, when they feel lost and confused. I worked for 10 years in catechesis (integrating doctrine/religious teaching into practical every day experience) in Catholic Church. I decided I might appeal more widely by going in a clinical psychology direction, but spirituality is my foundation in thinking about the person who sits in front of me is and how I might assist him/her. I have been married 39 years to someone Jewish, whose mother escaped Nazi Germany 6 weeks before Kristallnacht. I have learned how to integrate both heritages, not a simple task.
I have found that faith cannot be separated from everyday living. In order to feel joy, contentment, and fulfillment, we first need a connection and close relationship with God. When we are struggling in our relationship with God, it affects every area of our lives. God's grace, mercy, and love are available to you at all times. I hope to be a person who can provide the safe place to explore your relationship with Him, and help you to grow so that you can see relying on God for every need is possible and transformative.
The inerrancy of the Bible has proven its wisdom for centuries as we seek answers that bring us to a completeness and confidence within a world of pain and confusion. We will always lead our client to that truth and confidence that Christ understands your pain and provides you with his perfect solution.
Virtually every Christian today has been or will be touched by addiction, divorce, violence, depression, grief, confusion, loneliness, and hundreds of other human challenges. We will teach the client why they have been given such challenges and how God has already provided healing if we will just seek to glorify Christ in our quest for freedom. It is Jesus Who Is The Great Counselor!
One of the earliest forms of Christian belief and practice became known as "gnosticism." The Greek word, "gnosis" means "to know." Ancient Gnostics focused on their direct experience of the living Christ and therefore were able to say, "we know" the truth and power of Jesus in their hearts and minds. Many of the writings of the ancient Gnostics were left out of the Bible because of political reasons such as not wanting women to have an active, leading role in the ministry. I use both the Bible and the ancient scriptures of the Gnostics to help shed light on our human suffering and how we can re-establish direct contact with the living Christ within and learn to follow that "inner voice."
I have been a practicing Christian for over 30 years, I bring a wealth of Biblical knowledge into the therapeutic process, and I pray with my clients. I have received extensive training on how to counsel with the Scriptures and I am a Focus on the Family referral counselor. I use the scriptures in all phases of counseling to improve marriages, teach parenting skills, see the Lord in all problems, build hope and help people experience the power of living a Christian life style.
AS a Christian therapist, I believe that a person's understanding, belief and relationship to Jesus Christ significantly impacts how they perceive themselves, relate to others and deal with life challenges. I utilize pyschological methods and skills to help clients practically apply the principles of the Christian faith in managing and solving their life struggles. Successfully overcoming the struggles of life greatly depends upon hope for the future. I believe that a Christian based approach is affective becasue of the hope found in the person of Jesus Christ. Christian therapy can provide clients the needed confidence and courage to take responsibility for their life situation.

Col. Ted Westhusing took summer intensive Greek at UT Austin in 2001. He became an academy professor at the USMA at West Point. He also became a good friend. As this article points out, we collaborated on several major projects and I taught in Ted's classes at West Point.
He went to Iraq in January 2005 for a six-month tour of duty. He was the chief officer on the ground responsible for training Iraqi Security forces. He was found dead of a gun shot wound on June 5, 2005.
Ted was then the highest ranking officer to die in Iraq.

Ted's Ghost
The death of Ted Westhusing leaves a widening circle of sorrow
By Tom Palaima
"They're still there, he's all gone." - Bruce Springsteen, "Born in the U.S.A."
When the Greek hero Odysseus visits the Underworld in Book 11 of Homer's The Odyssey, he learns that his mother, Antikleia, who was alive when he set sail for Troy, has died and now dwells in the gloomy regions the Greeks called Hades. Odysseus sees her there and, overcome by sorrow, tries to embrace her. She slips away from his grasp but responds to his tearful pleas by explaining, "We no longer have sinews keeping the bones and flesh together, but once the life-force has departed from our bones ... the soul slips away like a dream." Cold comfort for the still-living and long-suffering Odysseus.
My friend, my former student, my scholarly collaborator Ted Westhusing is a ghost to me now. He is a ghost to his mother, his father, his brothers and sister, his wife and three children, his fellow soldiers, his former students at West Point Military Academy, and to the many people who wrote messages in his memorial guestbook (www.legacy.com/GB/GuestbookView.aspx?PersonId=14190695). We all want Ted, flesh and blood, self-effacing wit, plainspoken and honest, dedicated, moral, caring. We want to hear his laughter and feel the warmth of his hello, only matched in how good it made you feel, in my experience, by my late friend Clifford Antone's "Hey there, brother."
I want Ted, not his ghost. And I only knew Ted for four years. I feel the profound grief of his mother and family. Their loss seems to me unbearable, all the more because of the circumstances described so well in Robert Bryce's article (p.28).
In the online guestbook, Steve, an old friend of Ted's from Jenks High School in Oklahoma, writes, a year and a half after Ted's death, that "Ted always made us feel like we were someone special. ... Just the other day, I talked to my children about how important it is to look out for others. When my son was being bullied by a group at school, I talked about Ted and how he cared and looked out for others. It really made an impact on my son. Thanks Ted and God bless you and your family." Ted is somehow still alive in Steve's son.
Imagine the man Steve describes shouldering the overwhelming responsibility of training Iraqi security forces and doing so with no brothers-in-arms around him and, as his "suicide note" makes clear, without the support of his two commanders. One of them, with an irony right out of Joseph Heller's Catch-22, is Gen. David Petraeus, "Iraq's repairman," as Newsweek calls him.
Fierce Dedication
I teach ancient Greek and war and violence studies through the filter of ancient history. I knew Ted Westhusing in both these areas. Ted was 41 years old and a stellar Army officer of almost two decades when he came to UT-Austin in the summer of 2001 to study intensive Greek, five hours a day, five days a week. He needed Greek for his Ph.D. thesis, and he was taking it with graduate students and gifted undergraduates. He reminded me then of Col. Kurtz in Apocalypse Now, who went through Army Airborne School at age 38. Capt. Willard describes Kurtz's Westhusing-like experience in this way: "The next youngest guy in his class was half his age. They must have thought he was some far-out old man humping it over that course. I did it when I was 19, and it damn near wasted me. A tough motherfucker. He finished." As a description of how his fellow students viewed him, Ted would disagree only with the use of the word "motherfucker." I never heard him swear.
Ted was not a natural linguist. But he mastered Greek by long hours and hard work. He later described his experience in the UT alumni magazine, The Alcalde, as being harder than Army Airborne training.
Even in intensive Greek with so many hours of contact, memorable students are rare. The focus is on getting 20-25 students through historical linguistics and then assorted classical Greek literary genres. But Ted's achievement stayed with me. We stayed in touch despite our widely differing views on whether the American military should be in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Ted invited me up to West Point for five days to lecture to his cadet students on the nature of ancient Greek warfare and ancient Greek attitudes about the morality of warfare. He trusted that I would stay on message and not interject my strong views about Iraq and Afghanistan. I saw there the fierce dedication he had to his cadets and the respect bordering on awe they had for him. I also noticed how he had organized every detail of my five-day visit with scrupulous care.
Ted and I worked together on three other major projects. We were advisers to a Discovery Channel program on war in the Homeric epics. We wrote an article together for London's Times Higher Education Supplement on the value of studying Homer at West Point. And we both gave papers at a conference in St. Louis on the experience of war and the trauma it causes, from ancient Greece to the Iraq war. On all these projects, Ted's sense of values and his fierce belief in moral principles were conspicuous.
When Ted e-mailed me on Dec. 20, 2004, with what he called "twice good news" - that he had been selected for eventual promotion to colonel and had agreed to deploy to Iraq to serve under "a former boss of mine Lt. Gen. Petraeus" - I first responded in keeping with his own excitement about assisting in "the continuing effort to get the Iraqi security forces capable of killing the bad guys themselves and of securing their own country."
I expressed my pride in what he had achieved and my heartfelt good wishes. But later, I wrote that soldiers who had been writing me and sending me images of the effects of suicide-bomb blasts were not "optimistic" about the effectiveness of "Dumsfeld's" strategies. Ted's reply was strong. He felt there was no place for such attitudes and even requested the names and units of my informants. I declined in a way that let the matter drop, but that break stayed with us so that I did not communicate with Ted while he was in Iraq.
The Diameter of Death
I feel now that I let my friend down. Ted's death haunts me. His ghost sometimes flits close enough for me to feel. I have the cards from his memorial service that his mother sent me propped up in my study at home and at my computer in my office in Waggener Hall. It is much too easy to turn any dead soldier into whatever you want him or her to be. I want to remember who Ted really was.
In my opinion, it is good that Ted has become a symbol of the waste of this particular war. Those who want to defend the war can easily say that Ted's moral sensibilities were too inflexible and that war's moral ambiguities produce many shades of gray, while Ted saw things only in black and white. Those who want to condemn the war, as I do, can easily use Ted as a symbol for all that is wrong with our leadership and how this war is being waged. Those choices make dead soldiers into icons, and they also let us blame easy targets, Bush, Rumsfeld, Ted himself, and move on.
We should instead remember what Yehuda Amichai writes in his poem "The Diameter of the Bomb" about the death of a single young woman from a terrorist bomb. The grief from her death radiates outward to affect people on other continents and eventually involve the whole world in a circle of sorrow "with no end and no God."
The conditions of the Iraqi war enclosed Ted in a circle within which he could not feel the tender mercies of his God, nor the saving love of his family and friends. His death is a terrible waste. We should have more than the ghost of this good and honorable man for comfort.
Thomas Palaima is the Raymond F. Dickson Centennial Professor of Classics at UT-Austin. He has recently written an essay, "Civilian Knowledge of War and Violence in Ancient Athens and Modern America," dedicated to Ted Westhusing and forthcoming in the collection Experiencing War: Trauma and Society From Ancient Greece to the Iraq War (Chicago: Ares Publishers, June 2007). The volume will also contain a posthumously edited essay by Westhusing, entitled "The American Warrior. Winning the Nation's Wars, for 'This We Shall Defend'." Palaima can be reached via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

How do you cook french fries in space?
When it comes to food, you have to feel sorry for those poor astronauts. Limited to quick-serve pre-prepared and pre-packaged foods, most astronauts are sure to get cravings for things only found on Earth, like french fries. With that in mind, the European Space Agency recently supported the work of chemists at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece, who experimented with deep-frying in space.
Cooking in space isn't an easy task. You have to consider that the ingredients involved float in zero-gravity, and the physics of how heat distributes through food is completely different in space. Imagine trying to make something as simple as coffee: in zero gravity, the water can't drip down through the coffee grounds: it would just float there, doing nothing. Cooking with fire would also be tricky (and dangerous), since fire takes on a different shape without gravity.
Unfortunately, it's difficult to simulate zero gravity, so the chemists decided to go in the opposite direction and study cooking in increased gravity, similar to that found on Jupiter. Working with the much beloved french fry, they considered how oil would behave with more gravity. On Earth, hot oil rises through convection. In increased gravity, that should happen even faster and be more evident. The team attached a deep-fryer, filled with potato strips and oil, to a centrifuge, which simulates a higher level of gravity. As the potatoes cooked, they measured the temperature of the crust of the french fries. As g-forces rose to about 3g, bubbles in the oil multiplied and rose faster, cooking the fries at a rapid rate, making them nice and crispy (yum). At higher g-forces, though, the bubbles became so tiny that they stuck to the potato sticks, resulting in soggy fries (ew).
So what did the chemists learn? If you want to cook french fries faster and make them good and crispy, 3g is the magic amount of gravity needed to make that happen. Anything over that, though, results in a disgusting mushy mess. Using these findings, the research team hopes to work with less gravity (at least less than what's found on Earth) and see how that affects cooking. If all goes well, and with a near-future colony on Mars, McDonald's might want to plan its first franchise off-world.

Stillwater, OK (Sports Network) - Brandon Weeden threw for 409 yards and six touchdowns to lead the Oklahoma State Cowboys to a 65-28 blowout victory over the Tulsa Golden Hurricane in a non-conference bout at Boone Pickens Stadium.
Weeden completed 23-of-32 passes to pace Oklahoma State (3-0) in the win and was replaced under center by Clint Chelf in the third quarter. Chelf threw for 165 yards and a pair of scores himself. Justin Blackmon caught six passes for 174 yards and three touchdowns for the Cowboys, while Josh Cooper grabbed four passes for 83 yards and a score as well. Hubert Anyiam caught three passes for 62 yards and a pair of touchdowns, while Joseph Randle gained 72 yards on the ground with just 12 carries.
G.J. Kinne threw for 219 yards to lead the way for Tulsa (1-2), but the quarterback was also responsible for three costly interceptions in the losing effort. Shavodrick Beaver led the Golden Hurricane ground game with 54 yards on 11 carries, while Trae Johnson led the receiving corps with six catches for 57 yards.
The first quarter of this one was all Oklahoma State as the Cowboys scored 20 unanswered points, beginning with a 49-yard Dan Bailey field goal early in the opening frame. Weeden then gave the Cowboys a 10-0 advantage with a one- yard scoring strike to Michael Harrison midway through the period, while a 34- yard kick from Bailey late in the quarter extended the lead to 13-0. Later, with under two minutes to go in the stanza, Weeden struck again, this time on an 18-yard toss to Anyiam.
The Golden Hurricane finally got on the board early in the second quarter with a one-yard plunge from Kinne, but Weeden finished off the Cowboys next possession with a seven-yard scoring pass to Blackmon that capped a seven- play, 81-yard drive and gave the Cowboys a 27-7 lead.
Weeden found Blackmon again late in the frame with a 21-yard TD completion that gave the Cowboys a 34-7 lead.
With under 30 seconds to go in the half, Weeden found the end zone once more, completing a 19-yard strike to Cooper to give OSU a commanding 41-7 halftime advantage.
Weeden and Blackmon hooked up again early in the third quarter on an 81-yard scoring play, and a 27-yard field goal from Bailey just minutes later extended the Oklahoma State lead to 51-7.
A 10-yard toss from Chelf to Anyiam midway through the stanza gave the Cowboys a 58-7 edge.
Tulsa found its way into the end zone for the second time with a seven-yard pass from Kinne to Willie Carter.
A two-yard run by Trey Watts early in the final period of play pulled Tulsa to within 58-21, while an interception returned for an 81-yard score minutes later cut the Oklahoma State lead to 58-28.
The Cowboys, however, managed to hit pay dirt one final time late in the stanza with a 27-yard pass from Chelf to Charlie Moore to account for the final score of the meeting.
OSU finished the night with 722 yards of total offense, while Tulsa came up with 428 yards despite two more offensive plays than the Cowboys.

Becquerel, (Antoine-) Henribiographical name
radioactivity, which occurred when he found that the element uranium (in a sample of pitchblende) emitted invisible rays that could darken a photographic plate. His 1901 report of a burn caused by a sample of Marie Curie's radium that he carried in his vest pocket led to investigations by physicians and ultimately the medical use of radioactive substances. In 1903 he shared a Nobel Prize for Physics with the Curies. The unit of radioactivity, the becquerel (Bq), is named for him.

American Idol Review: We Will Rock Youby Miranda Wicker at . Comments
As this season of American Idol has progressed, Ryan Seacrest's hair has gotten bigger. And bigger. And bigger. That's the first thing I noticed tonight as the show started. The second thing I noticed was that there was no sad, tearful montage about Colton Dixon's elimination last week like there has been for every other contestant. Weird.
This evening, the Top 6 will be singing one song from Queen and one song of their own choosing. This will either be awesome or awful and, knowing our remaining contestants, I'm leaning toward the latter just because Queen seems like such an obscure theme and letting the contestants choose their own songs has the potential for disaster. However, if Elise can channel the juju she used in her Zeppelin performance, tonight could be her night.
Let Round One begin:
Jessica Sanchez starts off the night with "Bohemian Rhapsody." Vocally, it's okay, but rock and roll is definitely not her genre. Her performance seems insincere and kind of awkward which is what happens every time she tries to move around the stage. Steven says Freddie Mercury would've been proud but rock's not her forte. J.Lo said it needed more of a rock performance even if her vocals were good. Randy said he loved it. But Randy sometimes dresses like a clown so he's not always the best judge of awesome. 2/5
Singing "The Show Must Go On," Skylar Laine's up next. She shouted just a little much for my taste at the end, but she was leaps and bounds ahead of Jessica. She didn't over-Country the song and actually toned the Country down a little bit. I liked it. Steven said he could feel her passion in the performance while J.Lo called it powerful. Randy said it was one of his best performances to date and this time, I agree with him. I think it WAS her best performance to date. 5/5
Joshua Ledet's up next singing "Crazy Little Thing Called Love." First, I didn't know this was a Queen song. Second, he shouted his entire performance. It wasn't good. Randy said Joshua reminds him of Sam Cooke and said his performance was amazing. J.Lo said she loves everybody in the competition but Joshua's performances are her favorite part of the show. She called his vocals "inspired." Steven said Joshua has a classic style that sounds like nobody else. He sounds like nobody else because other people realize that his style of singing won't sell pop records. 2/5
Elise Testone chose "I Want It All" for her first performance. She's shaking a tambourine and rocking out with the full band on stage to accompany her. This is better than she's been in weeks and it's clear that rock is her thing. Steven said she sang the song perhaps better than the original and J.Lo said she definitely picked the right song. Randy said this style is her style and it was one of her best performances. Watch out, contestants. Elise is back. 5/5
Georgia-boy Phillip Phillips is performing "Fat-Bottomed Girls." Despite the fact that I'm constantly worried he's going to have an aneurysm during his performances, he never ceases to make me smile when he performs. This wasn't his best, but he definitely picked the right song for his style. Steven said something about fat-bottomed girls and looked at J.Lo. J.Lo said Phillip's performances are always signature Phillip performances. Randy said he liked it but didn't love it. Phillip could've sang the phone book tonight and he'd still be fine. 4/5
Hollie Cavanagh, in a bit of a plea, perhaps, is singing "Save Me." It's kind of sleepy and not the performance she needs to help her stay in this competition. When she sings, she drops the final sounds on almost every word that doesn't end in a vowel sound. Steven said she did a really good job on a song with a strong melody. J.Lo said she felt Hollie get emotional in the middle of the song but didn't seem like she enjoyed performing. Randy said she's been having a lot of good performances but she can take more chances to find her moment. Basically, Hollie's back in her own head. She looks great though. 2/5
Summary of Round One according to the judges: Skylar's the winner and Hollie has to step it up in the second half.
Here goes Round Two:
Jessica Sanchez has chosen "Dance With My Father" by Luther Vandross for her second song of the night. This performance has some very nice moments, particularly those at the very beginning and the very end. The middle got a little muddled, perhaps because she was emotional or perhaps because she moved. J.Lo said this was the best she's ever heard this song because she could feel the feelings. Steven said she can sing anything. Randy said she's truly amazing because she's so natural and there's absolutely nothing wrong with anything she sings. It was good, but it didn't blow me away. I understand that this song was a sentimental one for her, but this is the time to show who you will be as an artist if you win, not sing songs that age you the way this one does. 3/5
Skylar Laine chose the Jason Aldean song "Tattoos on This Town" for her Round Two performance. Vocally, it was flawless. Actually, everything about it was flawless. It was a perfect song choice for her. Randy said he loved it and in everything, Skylar's fearless. J.Lo said Skylar just looks comfortable on the stage. Steven said he kind of missed the flare but he enjoyed it. I think that the LACK of flare is what made the performance so good. Another 5/5 for her.
Singing "Ready For Love" by India Arie, Joshua Ledet nailed his Round Two performance. He sang instead of screaming and sounded like he's ready for the radio. Randy was left "speechless" but went on to call the performance "beautiful" and "crazy good." J.Lo called it "transcendent." Steven said Joshua's performances send him off into another place, which is what's supposed to happen. It's also possible that Steven's Coca-Cola cup is spiked or he's having some kind of acid-trip flashback, but the performance was really, really great. This is the kind of performance I want every time Joshua steps foot on the stage. 5/5
Elise Testone chose the Jimi Hendrix song "Bold As Love." She's clearly enjoying herself during this performance, which is nice to see. There were a couple of moments when she seemed a little too caught up in the song, but overall, I liked it. Steven said she did a great job, but needed to pick a song that is familiar. J.Lo said she killed it. Randy said it was too much singing when Hendrix originally sang a quarter of the lyrics Elise did and he didn't love it. I think Elise is staying true to herself no matter what and knows that this genre--rock and roll--is her genre. 4/5
Finally performing a Dave Matthews Band number on the Idol stage, Phillip Phillips is tackling "The Stone." It was maybe not the best song choice when there are so many other DMB songs Phillip could've chosen. Vocally, it was great and it was a trademark performance. Steven said "very entertaining, very off the wall. Typical Phillip Phillips." J.Lo criticized the song choice saying this one was too obscure. There will be a time and place for him to perform the obscure songs, but this is the time for him to choose songs people know so they'll vote for him. Randy said that, as a musician, he loves Phillips' desire to stay true to himself despite all criticisms. Because his judges' criticisms are basically the inverse of Elise's and both stayed true to themselves in their Round Two performances, I'm giving Phillip a 4/5.
Hollie Cavanagh is closing the night with the Miley Cyrus anthem "The Climb." If she could get out of her own head, this would be the perfect kind of song for her. It's young and current, but like J.Lo said after her first performance of the night, she doesn't seem to enjoy herself very much on the stage. The judges, however, give her a standing ovation. Randy shouts "Hollie is back!" J.Lo said she stepped it up and called the performance perfect. Steven said it was "perfect." I disagree with the judges. Sure, she had a little bounce to her step. But she's still very, very concerned with every aspect of being on the stage and very rarely is she capable of relaxing on the stage. It was better than her first performance, though. 3/5
Tonight's totals:
- Jessica Sanchez: 5/10
- Skylar Laine: 10/10
- Joshua Ledet: 7/10
- Elise Testone: 9/10
- Phillip Phillips: 8/10
- Hollie Cavanagh: 5/10
Going solely by the numbers, Skylar Laine, Phillip Phillips and Elise Testone are tonight's top three. That has everything to do with their comfort as artists and their ability to choose the right songs. Skylar continues to choose the kind of songs that will send her straight to the finals. She has fun every single time she's up on the stage and has a presence that rivals that of seasoned performers. She's tonight's winner in my book. Phillip and Elise are both staying true to themselves despite the judges' criticisms and so far, despite Elise's frequent flyer status in the bottom three, their desire to do their own thing is working in their favor.
On weeks when they're forced to sing songs outside their comfort zones, Jessica Sanchez, Joshua Ledet, and Hollie Cavanagh suffer and that's why they're in my bottom three this week. They aren't adept at making songs their own which makes them feel irrelevant in the landscape of modern music. When left to their own devices, Joshua and Hollie fare better than Jessica.
Despite the way the numbers fell, I think Elise will find herself in the bottom three again, and I also think she could be in danger of going home even though it really should be Hollie who leaves. That is, unless there's a shocking elimination like last week's.
Who do you think is leaving tomorrow night?

definitelyyes!Phillip may be in it to win but arn't they all?..but he's no great singer & could never be compared to the immense talent & dynamism of Joshua & Jessica & if he does as you say own the teenaged girl's votes then that in itself is a joke & teenaged girls'traditionally never just look at who is the best singer or singers.
It should have been Hollie
Oops, wrote too much and cut off. I was trying to say that Elise tries too hard and it bugs me. I think that's why she is in the bottom a lot and will probably go home next, if it isn't Hollie.
Nice review. I agreed completely with your scores, except for Jessica's, who I probably would have given an 8/10. Elise and Skylar were also my personal favorites last night. I usually don't like Phillip, but I really enjoyed both of his performances and disagreed with what they said about his second song. The song may have been obscure, but it was definitely not too artsy and the delivery was very good. Joshua redeemed himself with his second song, but the 1st song was a bit of a mess. My least favorite performances came from Hollie. Her vocals are almost always flawless, but she really has no idea how to sell a song. If I had a choice, I would eliminate Hollie, followed by Joshua. However, I suspect that Hollie and Phillip will be safe, and the rest will be in danger.
And, ha ha about Seacrest's hair, I joked last night about that huge hair too!
I think everyone has some really great strengths and some weaknesses. Those strengths and weaknesses are really different from one contestant to another, making it tough to compare them sometimes. I think my favorite is Phillip; he is the only one who you would sit down to listen, grab a beer and stay awhile if he were playing in a club. But, he isn't the most pop superstar at all, so I don't think he will win it, but will go far. Joshua & Skylar are both great at their own styles, and more than anything they both seem to have an effortless, honest party on stage, which is always fun, gets them votes, and makes the judges smile. I agree with other posters that poor Hollie is so stiff and uncomfortable. Both Hollie & Jessica have powerful, lovely voices, but they need more experience; their youth is what hinders them I think. Elise is the one I can't really figure out. She is technically a good singer, but I really don't enjoy her performances, I'm not totally sure why. I think she just tries way too hard and it bugs me; it's like she wants so bad to be cool but isn't. I don't mean that as mean, it's just why I think she doesn't get votes and will probably go home next, if it isn't Hollie.
Phillip Phillips is in it to win it! No one can stop him now, since Colton's gone - he owns the teenaged girls' votes.
I thought Hollie did great...too bad she is a little stiff. I think she did enough with "The Climb" to keep her in the running though. People love that type of Idol performance. I'm thinking the obscure/unknown to younger kids stuff (like Casey Abrams did last season) doesn't get votes. PLEASE send Elise home...she is just a miserable personality type.
I completely agree with you this week. I really think Skylar, Elise And Phillip shined because of their true artistry and deserved a standing O (especially Elise), That being said,i don't think america is capable of getting it right this week, because of how much wrongful praise was given to the other three contestants...sadly i think Elise might go home tonight.
Wow, I must be seeing a different broadcast from many of you. I see these final 6 as so closely talented (in very different ways), that I find it hard to decide. Obviously it's about favorites now. People in here who are constantly bashing Hollie have become hilarious… amazing how far this "sympathy vote� can carry someone! A "3" for Hollie AND for Jessica for their second songs last night? Come on Miranda... I could accept maybe a 3.5 or even a 4 but you really hit a low for me in the biased department. I honestly think you need to go back and listen again… both of those girls sang incredibly on song #2 & deserved better. America: Please… stop voting for Hollie & let her go because "she looks so uncomfortable up there�… "she's just not ready!� In the meantime I'll be looking up my dictionary for "uncomfortable� and "ready�.

New Siebel CEO Shares Game Plan for Growth
New Siebel CEO Shares Game Plan for Growth
In a meeting that was often testy, Siebel Systems Inc.s leaders told investors and analysts Thursday that the company would focus on cutting costs, managing more efficiently and going after new market opportunities in an effort to right itself.
At the meeting in New York, George Shaheen, the new chief executive of the San Mateo, Calif., company, said he hoped to reach operating margins of 15 percent in the near- to midterm and more than 20 percent in the longer term.
"Were going to manage ourselves differently, were going to renew our partnerships and alliances and were going to take cost out of this organization," Shaheen said.
One element of the companys cost-cutting strategy will involve reducing the Siebel work force, although company officials did not say by how much.
Shaheen said Siebel has to "level set" its cost base to reach the 15 percent margins he is targeting. "Were going for [revenues of] $400 million a quarter. That way well get to the 15 to 20 percent margins," he said.
"The revenue targets are attainable, albeit a stretch," Shaheen said. "I dont think I can get to profit in the near termtwo quarters or so."
Meanwhile, Shaheen said that although Siebel is a leader in the $6 billion packaged CRM (customer relationship management) market and the $500 million hosted CRM market, the company is aiming for growth by attacking what he called the custom CRM market, which represents about a $24 billion opportunity, and the overall customer-facing and business analytics solutions market, which represents a $100 billion opportunity.
Click here to read more about Shaheens appointment as CEO.
To seize on the new market opportunities, Siebel will this summer release a new component assembly technology, code-named Nexus, said David Schmaier, executive vice president of Siebel. Nexus is being developed in conjunction with Microsoft Corp., IBM and BEA Systems Inc., Schmaier said. The technology is based on .Net and on J2EE (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition) application servers and is a component assembly platform for building out service-oriented architectures, company officials said.
Ed Abbo, chief technology officer at Siebel, said Nexus will feature hundreds of pre-built business processes for sales, service and marketing, and it also will feature embedded analytics and come with baked in integration with Microsoft Office, Outlook and SharePoint.
Additionally, Schmaier said Siebel has "co-located" engineers at Microsoft, IBM and BEA to develop the technology, and that Siebel, IBM and Microsoft plan to spend about $250 million between the three companies to develop the technology.
Moreover, while Shaheen said Siebel would build "world-class" components of its own, he said he expects that "integrators will build components as well, and that will be good for us. This is going to be a new dynamic where its not how many bodies you bring, but what technology you bring in your tool kit."
Meanwhile, investors and analysts hit Siebel hard on the $2.2 billion cash "horde" the company is holding onto, rather than using it for other purposes.
Ken Goldman, Siebels senior vice president of finance and administration, and the companys chief financial officer, said, "We think there are ways we can leverage the cash." He noted that the company could "leverage cash for customer credibility" and as a strategic operating and acquisition asset to drive further growth.

Page Two
However, since ousting its former CEO, Michael Lawrie, last month and replacing him with Shaheen, Siebel itself has been the subject of acquisition rumors, with some suggesting that it could be a potential takeover target for companies such as Oracle Corp. and SAP AG.
Speculation of a buyout is said to have peaked Tuesday when an individual or group traded a block of 14 million Siebel shares.
Siebel addressed the rumors in a filing Thursday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the 8-K filing, Siebel noted that several news stories had "been written concerning potential strategic opportunities for Siebel Systems." It said that, from time to time, the company has "considered a diverse range of strategic opportunities to maximize stockholder value, including but not limited to potential significant acquisitions by us, restructurings of our equity, equity repurchases, strategic alliances, and offers to purchase us."
However, Siebel indicated that no deals are being considered at this time.
"Potential opportunities have recently been presented to us that continue to be evaluated and discussed in a manner that is consistent with our past practices and the fiduciary duties of our officers and directors, with the goal of determining what the Board of Directors believes is in our stockholders best interests," Siebel said in its SEC filing. "These activities include the involvement of independent directors, outside experts, and independent advisors. Such activities continue to be conducted in the normal course of business and should not be interpreted to suggest that any of these current potential opportunities will or will not be consummated. There are none under current consideration that have progressed to the point at which the full Board of Directors has met to consider them."
Meanwhile, during Thursdays meeting with analysts, Siebel executives showed signs of frustration over a barrage of demands for more information on potential deals, the companys cash situation and why Siebel executives refuse to meet one-on-one with investors.
More than once, Goldman told questioners Siebels SEC filing "speaks for itself," adding that the company would say no more on the subject at the time.
"My role at this point in time is to grab the tiller of this thing and get it back on course," Shaheen said.
Asked why if he wanted to instill investor confidence in the company, Shaheen had not purchased any Siebel stock, the CEO replied, "We are not here to discuss my personal portfolio."
Shaheen said Siebel is in the drivers seat in the CRM market, with the most users at 3.2 million seats, or more than the next three largest CRM vendors combined.
Shaheen says the company is ready to overtake competitors in the hosted CRM space. Click here to read more.
But the company needs to reduce organizational complexity, revitalize its partners and alliance programs, and invest more in vertical markets, Shaheen said.
"Our shortfall is quite apparent to meits on the sales side, the revenue generation side," he said.
Siebels "sales force on the ground is overly complex," Shaheen said. "We get in our own way."
Later, after fielding several recurring questions, Shaheen fired back: "Thats my story and Im sticking to it. Theres no science. Thats our game plan. Its not that scientific; its not even that complex. I know what Im charged to do."
He then added: "I hear your frustration. I hear it loud and clear. We believe the opportunity is there. This is an industry thats not stagnant. Were going to make a run for it. The game is still on the field."
