Final 4: American Idol Results Predict and win chance to meet Favourite Idol

I thought this year, Skylar was set to be that Nashville Nobody, but it seems America grew tired of her amateurish twang after awhile and she bit the dust because of it.

All I can say is, America got it right. Of the remaining contestants (In the non-Phillip Phillips Division, but he’s in his own class of beloved) she was clearly the weakest singer. Close your eyes (Yes, I know this isn’t the ‘Voice’) and tell me she comes even close to Joshua, Jessica or Hollie. There’s no contest and it’s good to know that this show is back to being competitive rather than just genre voting.

Of course, this may also be because one Mr. Phillips has sort of absorbed the country bloc with his Southern Rock swagger, but I tend to believe quality is going to outweigh popularity.

Well, maybe not…


There's been a major shake-up in our American Idol Power Rankings, considering - ouch! - our number-seed from a week ago has been eliminated. Fare thee well, Skylar Laine.

Who will take over the top spot? Which of the final four do you think will will the title? Read on. Find out. Vote.


1. Joshua Ledet... not after the week Ledet enjoyed. Both of his covers on Wednesday were stellar, highlighted by "Ain't Too Proud to Beg." Is he theatrical? Yes. Overly dramatic sometimes? Sure. But we're big fans of Adam Lambert, so we can't exactly complain about those traits. What a voice!

2. Jessica Sanchez. A beautiful rendition of "You Are So Beautiful" on Wednesday, continuing her trend of the Ballad Master. We could easily see her win and would stand up and cheer if so, but...

3. Hollie Cavanaugh. Not too different of a critique than we have for Phillip, really. A great voice, but not a great deal of stage presence. We can't think of one performance that really stands out and expected her to be voted off this week.

4. Phillip Phillips. We've just been here too many times. He's white. He's handsome. He plays the guitar. Very well, mind you. But we know exactly what to expect on a weekly basis and it's no longer unique or exciting.



All the power rankings lists tracked for this series -- from Andrew Payne at Starpulse, Tracy Fusaro at Wetpaint, and Annie Barrett at Entertainment Weekly -- see Cavanagh as the one headed home after the Top 5 performance show. Two of those same power rankings see a possible finale with Skylar Laine and Phillip Phillips (Barrett even sees Laine as currently holding the No. 1 position). The holdout? Payne at Starpulse sees a possible finale between Joshua Ledet and Phillips.

Best way to Manipulate Metabolism and Loss Weigh Naturally

If you’re interested in losing weight quickly, easily, naturally and permanently, then read on to discover why the Mental Weight is the perfect solution for you.

 The Mental Weight is a revolutionary weight loss program that attacks fat in a scientifically-proven manner. This program is comprised of completely original, unique ideas and techniques, and differs significantly from any other diet/weight loss plan that’s currently on the market. The Mental Weight is a brand new way of burning fat; this is not an exercise program, this is not a fitness regime and this is not a diet. The Mental Weight is the future of weight loss; it is the simple way to cut calories!

Your blood sugar level is a measurement of the amount of glucose that is stored in the body. Glucose is directly correlated to weight as it is both the body and the brain’s primary source of energy. Blood sugar levels are another factor that determines hunger in the brain. BSL also informs the brain on how much energy it has at its disposal. Based on that level, the brain will either store fat or burn it. When this balance is not proportionally kept, it leads to weight gain in the body.

Glucose works in the body in the same way that leptin does; the difference being that glucose is found in the insulin hormone. When food enters the body “insulin surges” are created. These surges inform the brain that the glucose coming into its system will be ready to be made into energy. Insulin surges are a major proponent of weight gain. Often times these surges will produce an overabundance of glucose. Too much glucose in the body will lower its BSL; the brain overcompensates resulting in the body feeling overly hungry, yet also tired. This reaction creates a vicious cycle because the brain will crave more foods that are high in sugar, thus introducing even more glucose into the system that will restart the system.

Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that happen in the body. These actions are what allow our bodies to grow and live. Among other things, metabolism controls body weight. It is the speed at which calories are burned in the body; the higher your metabolism, the easier it is for your body to do this. Only recently has it been discovered how to take control of metabolism; it is now possible to augment its levels, regardless of body type. The Mental Weight has incorporated this scientific research into its program.The Mental Weight can teach you how to manipulate, maintain and master your metabolism. There are several ways to accomplish this, but this system is designed to focus on your specific body in determining the most suitable approach.

No two bodies are identical, therefore no two solutions are the same. In order to boost metabolism, an individualistic approach must be taken; which is why the Mental Weight will supply you with a countless array of unique techniques. One of the primary ways for increasing metabolism
is through leptin.

Leptin is a hormone that regulates the body’s metabolism and appetite. As a protein hormone, leptin is responsible for preserving energy, both its intake and expenditure, in the body. It has only been known to scientists for the past seventeen years, it was discovered in 1994, which is why as a proponent for weight loss, its assistance is extremely new and innovative. Produced in the body, leptin works hand-in-hand with insulin, in the brain’s hypothalamus, to regulate blood sugar levels.

In fact, leptin has been scientifically proven to be the authority for controlling glucose in the body. Glucose determines the body’s weight, therefore leptin is produced to create a counterbalance. Specifically, when leptin is properly balanced in the body, it can suppress appetite, and thus weight gain. There are various methods for stimulating its production, and the Mental Weight will teach you how to balance leptin in order to reduce weight gain.

Leptin is also responsible for another huge weight loss development; physicality. Scientists have proven that the hormone can arouse the desire to exercise in the brain. Both of these revolutionary weight loss effects are derived from leptin triggers in the hypothalamus – once you learn how to harness the hormone’s potential, cutting calories will become easier than ever!

One of the reasons why the current weight loss methods can’t help you lose weight has already been explained. It’s because these plans cater solely to the mesomorphic body type; the body type that is already primed for building muscle and burning fat. This is the type of body that doesn’t need a diet plan to begin with.

Another method, diets, are perhaps the biggest misconception when it comes to losing weight. A major concern with dieting is again that individuals choose diets not according to what is best for their specific bodies, but rather by what is popular at the moment. Diets need to be tailor-made in order to be effective.

The hypothalamus, which is the part of the brain that is responsible for sleep, fatigue, thirst and hunger, is the cornerstone of weight loss. All four of these components directly contribute to weight, which is why they must be regulated in order to sustain physical development. How are they regulated? Through the control of leptin.

The external part of the hypothalamus, called the ventromedial nucleus (VMH), is governed by leptin to control food intake in the body. Moreover, it is leptin that stimulates the nucleus, provoking it to tell the body that it’s hungry and that it needs to replenish its energy supply. Accordingly, leptin works in the hypothalamus to both augment and suppress food intake.

Leptin also activates physicality levels in the hypothalamus as well. Instructions are passed through the brain as the hormone reaches various neurons from within it. The amount of neurons affected alters the responses that the brain receives.

 There is only one true way for burning fat in the body, yet that path is specific to each individual. The Mental Weight incorporates scientific data in achieving your specific needs and goals. In order to lose weight you must burn fat, and in order to burn fat you need to take control of your leptin supply in the body. The Mental Weight is your solution. It is a revolutionary weight loss program that attacks fat in an informative manner. This program understands how weight originates in the body, and it has found the root to where fat is created and stored in the body. The results that the Mental Weight has generated alone prove that this program is serious.

The Mental Weight is effortless and educational. It is fitness without fault. It’s simple, easy and natural – and the weight that you lose with the Mental Weight stays off permanently.
