Healthcare for the 21st Century
Frustrated with your health problems?
Had it with expensive doctors who can't help you?
Tired of taking medicines that don't work?
At Quantum Link Wellness, we know how you feel...
What's different about Quantum Link Wellness:
● Chronic health issues are our specialty. We enjoy working with people who have health issues that are very complicated—digestive problems, infertility, psoriasis, metabolic disorders, autoimmune disorders—especially stubborn problems that haven't responded well to other therapies. We use Accunect, Neuroscience Energetics, and BodyTalk.
● We notice emotional components of disease. Through our years of treating people with health problems, we've discovered that emotions are often a major cause of disease. They usually involve one of three elements: frank emotions (anger, fear, grief, sadness, depression), traumatic events in your life, or negative beliefs about yourself or the world. Once we treat the cause of the blockage, the healing can happen.
● We use Energy Medicine. Energy medicine includes neuromuscular biofeedback, or muscle checking, acupuncture channels or meridians, and the innate wisdom of the body-mind complex that can heal you in an instant.
● Preventive medicine is the best medicine. By normalizing the immune system and making subtle dietary and lifestyle changes, we can help you improve your health immensely in a very short time. We don't treat symptoms—we treat the causative factors in disease to create real healing.

I know there are a few Pirates fans on here. What are your thoughts? I'm very neutral on this deal. The Pirates didn't give up too much in Jesse Chavez. It just seems this deal goes against what management has said they are doing by adding a 30+ veteran rather than going (staying) young.
Doesn't surprise me. They traded him away in the offseason of my Road to the Show: MLB 09 because of a up and coming second base stud...me.
5 years of Chavez for one year of Iwamura on a team that needs bullpen help? I don't get it...

Pretty much what I was thinking. Is Iwamura so much better than Young that we give away a young fireball arm? Puzzling.

Steve Nash wanted fire. Alvin Gentry wanted defense. Suns fans want a winning team.
Photos from the game | Box score
Everyone got their wishes Friday night, when the Suns followed a Thursday win in Oakland by looking fresh with a defensively strong second half in a 105-97 win at US Airways Center.
The Suns moved to 10-9 for their first winning record since Nov. 17 because they defended legitimately, considering Indiana committed 25 turnovers in the game (14 on Suns steals) and the Suns adjusted at halftime to Indiana's slashing offense and held the Pacers to 38 points on 39.5 percent shooting in the second half.
Indiana still shot 46.8 percent, but that clip was Celtics-like defense for a Suns team that had been allowing opponents to make most of their shots regularly in recent weeks.
"It was probably as good of a win as we've had all year, considering the cirucmstances," said Suns coach Alvin Gentry, who made a defensive emphasis and change in two practice days this week.
"We closed out and we were also a little more aggressive in our switches, trying to take the easy pin-down shots away."
For a second consecutive win, the Suns did not let second chances hurt them. Indiana thrived on the 3-point point shot the Suns were willing to give early and did not make one in the final 16 minutes.
The Suns still needed big offensive performances and got a huge one from center Channing Frye, whose 29 points were one off his career high. His 11-of-16 shooting night included five 3-pointers. He has scored in double digits in all 11 of his starts.
Frye was emblematic of the defensive improvement, too. It can go largely unnoticed but everyone took note in the fourth quarter when he blocked a Mike Dunleavy fast-break try at its apex to lead to a Jason Richardson 3-pointer in transition.
That gave the Suns a 94-88 lead with 4:06 to go and the Pacers never again had a possession to tie the game. It even drew a time out body slam from Nash.
"Dude, I don't know where that came from," Frye said. "I've been doing my correctives (exercises) and (strength and conditioning coach) Mike Elliot's really been helping with my hops. No, I'm just trying to be a defensive presence. I know I can rebound better but I just want to be around the hoop and just trying to block something and make some hard fouls.
"We've found a systeam that works for us and we're getting easy stops."
The Suns began the fourth quarter trailing 76-74, but a lineup of Frye and four reserves -- including good minutes from rarely used Earl Clark -- put the Suns ahead and let the starters rest for half the quarter for a second consecutive night.
The Suns returned to their Valley homes at 4 a.m. Friday to play this game against Indiana, which was ending a four-game trip, but the Suns won the final quarter 31-21 against the league's third-best defensive field-goal percentage defense.
The Suns went to 2-0 with Earl Barron starting at center and Hakim Warrick reduced to single-digit minutes. Barron played actively with mixed results, missing seven of nine shots but getting four steals in 19 minutes.
Jared Dudley logged a season-high 30 minutes, scoring 12 points as he continues to emerge from his slump. Jason Richardson's 21 points gave him six consecutive 20-point games, his most as a Sun.

I am using an inner class that is a subclass of a HashMap. I have a
String as the key and
double[] as the values. I store about 200 doubles per
double[]. I should be using around 700 MB to store the keys, the pointers and the doubles. However, memory analysis reveals that I need a lot more than that (a little over 2 GB).
Using TIJmp (profiling tool) I saw there was a
char[] that was using almost half of the total memory. TIJmp said that
char[] came from
Serializable and
Cloneable. The values in it ranged from a list of fonts and default paths to messages and single characters.
What is the exact behavior of
Serializable in the JVM? Is it keeping a "persistent" copy at all times thus, doubling the size of my memory footprint? How can I write binary copies of an object at runtime without turning the JVM into a memory hog?
PS: The method where the memory consumption increases the most is the one below. The file has around 229,000 lines and 202 fields per line.
public void readThetas(String filename) throws Exception
long t1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
documents = new HashMapX<String,double[]>(); //Document names to indices.
Scanner s = new Scanner(new File(filename));
int docIndex = 0;
if (s.hasNextLine())
System.out.println(s.nextLine()); // Consume useless first line :)
String[] fields = s.nextLine().split("\\s+");
String docName = fields[1];
numTopics = fields.length/2-1;
double[] thetas = new double[numTopics];
for (int i=2;i<numTopics;i=i+2)
thetas[Integer.valueOf(fields[i].trim())] = Double.valueOf(fields[i+1].trim());
if (docIndex%10000==0)
System.out.print("*"); //progress bar ;)
long t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("\nRead file in "+ (t2-t1) +" ms");
Oh!, and HashMapX is an inner class declared like this:
public static class HashMapX< K, V> extends HashMap<K,V> {
public V get(Object key, V altVal) {
if (this.containsKey(key))
return this.get(key);
return altVal;

My mama cat Boo slipped out of the front door yesterday afternoon and disappeared. (We were having trouble with the front door popping open on occasion.) I didn't even know she was missing until I came home last night (2am) and saw a white streak leap from our front porch, hit a window, and disappeared around the house.
We searched for her last night, and I searched for her before I left for work.
Please send positive energy that she comes home.
I am soo upset.29 January, 2008 at 10:51 pm #154304
Mama Boo, come home! Please hurry, Mom is upset. 🙁 She is not angry, she promised to give you whatever treats you want…
Purrs and prayers to your way.29 January, 2008 at 10:51 pm #154305
Many prayers coming you way for the safe return of your beloved Boo. I could not find her on Catster, does she have a different name?29 January, 2008 at 10:52 pm #154306

Bobbi, I'm sending positive energy and a virtual cat trap (totally humane) to get Boo back.
Here Boo! *whistles* Come home now!
She'll be back Bobbi – she knows where the good life is!29 January, 2008 at 10:54 pm #154307
Come home Boo,your Mom is missing you a lot.29 January, 2008 at 10:54 pm #154308

aww Moma Boo come home soon, you are loved and missed29 January, 2008 at 11:17 pm #154313
I have some good advice. I lost a furbaby over the summer. I got her back after a week (a very LONG week). I would not have known what to do if not for the Cat In The Bag forum.
Here is the best website/forum:
Look at the cat profiles. Most indoor cats HIDE CLOSE BY. They are very scared and won't come to you, even when you are very near. They are very good hiders. They are in survival mode. The Kitty buffet can help get your baby back. Read over the posts and you will see how people got their cats back. Eamil me if you want specifics.29 January, 2008 at 11:45 pm #154314
Aristabobbi, VBK has given you a link to a valuable website!! If nothing else, start leaving a bit of food and water out in a dish late at night, before you go to bed. Maybe wait outside with it, quietly, sitting on a chair on the front porch. (Maybe stinky food like tuna will entice her back.)
Good luck!!30 January, 2008 at 12:15 am #154315
Bobbi, this trick has worked for me even when I was missing a cat for 6 weeks! Take some clothing that you have worn and that has your scent on it, and put it outside in a place where it will catch a breeze if there is one. Nighttime works best for some reason. If they are anywhere close by, they will catch the scent in the air and will head for the familiar and comforting smell that they associate with you. Someone told me this when Scarlett had been missing for over 6 weeks, and I was desperate…she returned that very night and meowed at the back door where the laundry was! And that was not the door where she normally came in. When Wolfie was missing, he came home also after I put my pajamas on the back deck–again, he came right to that door. Might as well try it! Praying that Boo gets out of survival mode and comes back inside.30 January, 2008 at 12:19 am #154316
Bobbi, I know how distressed you are. Catwoman's advice is good and hopefully Boo is nearby and will smell your scent. Never give up. We lost a kitty once for over a week when stationed at Ft. Hood. It was my precious Willie. He came home after more than a week and we always felt that he had gotten trapped somewhere that he couldn't get out of. Keep calling Boo. My prayers for a safe homecoming.30 January, 2008 at 1:14 am #154317

I hope Boo is waiting on your doorstep tonight when you get home. Silly kitty!! {{hugs}}30 January, 2008 at 1:46 am #154322
Bobbi… I'm sending lots of Prayers that Mama Boo gets some sense into her & comes back home to you. {{{HUGS}}}30 January, 2008 at 2:05 am #154323
Thanks for all the well wishes. I really appreciate them. I have faith in the combined TDK white light, and I feel better about Boo returning.30 January, 2008 at 2:33 am #154324
If Boo is too disoiented to come to a call, strip the sheets from your bed and make a little nest in a box on your porch so she has a chance to pick-up your scent and find a comforting place to hide till you get home.30 January, 2008 at 4:43 am #154325
Oh No Bobbi!! This is terrible! Poor Boo…She'll come back won't she? Oh dang it! Sending prayers that Boo gets her danged fuzzbutt back home! You must be so worried about her. *sending cyber esp message to Boo to get home* {{{HUGS}}}30 January, 2008 at 10:42 am #154326
Positive energy coming your way. Just like KK I whistle for Boo to come home (all our cats come to a whistle). Here Boo, come home Boo.30 January, 2008 at 12:33 pm #154327

A large cast -- "The West Wing" star Rob Lowe in his West End debut included -- huffs and puffs its way through the London preem of "A Few Good Men," which has only a few things to commend it to playgoers capable of renting Rob Reiner's film for a fraction of the price.
A large cast — "The West Wing" star Rob Lowe in his West End debut included — huffs and puffs its way through the London preem of "A Few Good Men," which has only a few things to commend it to playgoers capable of renting Rob Reiner's film for a fraction of the price. Show may score with those seduced by Aaron Sorkin's co-option of the ever-popular courtroom drama genre, but Lowe's wearyingly flip presence and David Esbjornson's stagey production seem scarcely less onerous than, well, boot camp.It's hard to believe that more than 15 years have passed since then-unknown 28-year-old Sorkin took this military drama to Broadway with a huge ensemble (there are 18 in London) for a run of nearly 500 perfs. Since then, of course, scribe has hit it big writing for screens large and small, even as he's largely vanished from the theater. (A new play is pending for Dublin's Abbey Theater.) His shift in genres makes sense when one casts a cold critical eye on this play, which is rich in melodramatic incident and tiresome repartee that often doesn't suit the person speaking it: "I don't look good in whites," deadpans Lowe's Daniel A. Kaffee, a Navy lawyer sounding like a refugee from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." The writing is brisk, blunt and not a little shallow, as if Sorkin had expended his energies on an overly convoluted narrative on conduct unbecoming that left scant room for freshly conceived characters or dynamic, idiosyncratic language. Barely has the play begun before jokes emerge at the expense of the "not very good" dialogue of Kaffee's eager-beaver femme sidekick, Galloway (Suranne Jones, in Demi Moore's screen gig). It's a given that these would-be adversaries will start nursing a mutual attraction by play's end (they're Guantanamo Bay's unlikely answer to Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy). No less predictable is the arrival of a third lawyer, the newly besotted father Weinberg (Dan Fredenburgh), whose Judaism merely has to be announced to indicate the sum total of the character: A remark about the three representing the Harvard grad, the woman and the Jew makes plain the archetyping involved. On TV, such breezy, generic discourse can sail smoothly by, as it can in a film version where your stars (Moore, Jack Nicholson, Tom Cruise) are themselves archetypes of sorts. But with the American military presence in Cuba having taken on far more sinister connotations than it had in 1989, the play offers merely unarguable liberal hectoring alternating with a pervasively jokey sheen. It's hard to feel there's much at stake in a shiny-toothed hero who speaks the Disneyfied patois of "zippity doo-dah," as Kaffee does here. Lowe grins his way through the part, raising his voice where necessary. But he soft-pedals what is in effect a parable of maturity about a cavalier guy who cares more for baseball than the law and only belatedly becomes a man. It may just be that the actor is too essentially soft a presence for the hard-man world of this play. The remainder of thesps mostly strike one stage posture and cling to it, which tends to erase the contributions of John Barrowman, taking Kevin Bacon's screen role as the prosecuting attorney, and local TV favorite Jones, whose fretful Galloway looks forever on the verge of tears. Among the rest, it's mildly disconcerting to find Jonathan Guy Lewis, author of a top-rank British military play called "Our Boys," here turned actor to prop up so formulaically American a piece. Jack Ellis suggests but skillfully never pastiches Nicholson in the ball-busting role of the villainous Jessep, a baddie whose pronouncements are so important that he sometimes says them twice. Michael Pavelka's set whisks us into the barbed-wire — not to mention emotionally barbed — world of military malfeasance, with Esbjornson ladling on various set pieces that mostly pad an already lengthy play. But even as the climactic courtroom encounter shifts scenic perspective time and again on its way to Kaffee's preordained vindication, the play for all its sharp-tongued maneuvers looks as if it's standing firmly, immovably in place.

Blizzard Beach is Disney's more exotic water-adventure park and, like Typhoon Lagoon, it arrived with its own legend. This time, the story goes, an entrepreneur tried to open a ski resort in Florida during a particularly savage winter. Alas, the snow melted; the palm trees grew back; and all that remained of the ski resort was its Alpine lodge, the ski lifts, and, of course, the mountain. Plunging off the mountain are ski slopes and bobsled runs transformed into waterslides. Visitors to Blizzard Beach catch the thaw—icicles drip and patches of snow remain. The melting snow has formed a lagoon (the wave pool), fed by gushing mountain streams.

We greatly NEED an outside game so that our post players can have some room to roam. With Dunson and McIntosh at guards, it will be interesting to see their consistancy. Same with Taylor. We'll have to see.
I think Jacobson will be someone to watch, too. I was watching the Media Day Action Footage from cyclones.com. Later in the sequence there are a bunch of guys shooting from half-court. Jacobson is down on one end knocking down 3's like crazy. He probably goes 13-16 or something. I just hope he can get open. I remember in high school (Webster City) he led or almost led the state in 3's for two or so years.
I hope they all can get open. With Mac's offense I'm sure there will be more consistency in the plays to free up room at the top.

haha, I really don't know. The mother of my husband will keep me company. I don't think she will film my birth for me~~
Congratulations Xiaoli, please do film your birth and share it with us!
I really want to thank you for all the vedio you uploaded. I think I can be more prepared in my labour and delivery. There are no Chinese website like this so I have no opportunity to getting this kind of knowledge. There are many difficulties, suffering and even hopelessness in childbirth. But our body can really handle this. All we need to do is to be brave and to follow the doctor's command. But I still can't understand why so many women want their husband on the scene when they are giving birth.
I just deleted my comment carelessly. I was not pregnant and I was just a normal college student at that time. I was frightened by this vedio actually because that was my first time seeing a delivery vedio. As a result, I did not come to this website until recently. Now I am expecting my first child.

9-year-old Arizona boy accidentally shot in the leg
BENSON, AZ - A 9-year-old boy was airlifted to the hospital Sunday morning after accidentally being shot in the leg.
Cochise County Sheriff's office spokeswoman Carol Capas said the incident happened around 7:30 a.m. off of Cascabel Road and Farnsworth Field, several miles northeast of Benson, Arizona.
The sheriff's office says the accident occurred as the grandfather had the boy hand him a rifle by sliding it under the fence once the grandfather was on the other side.
The boy was airlifted to University Medical Center in Tucson where he is undergoing treatment.
Capas said the boy's injuries are non life-threatening, however he has significant damage to his leg.
Benson is 45 miles east-southeast of Tucson.

The Barabaig numbered at least 30,000 in the mid-1990s and have occupied the plains around Mount Hanang in north-central Tanzania for the last 150 years.
Historical context
In the early part of the nineteenth century Tatoga pastoralists migrated southwards from the Serengeti plains and Ngorongoro highlands under pressure from the more powerful Maasai. Dispersal and separation led to the creation of sub-tribes, among them the Barabaig.
Since 1969 the Barabaig have been in dispute with the Tanzania Canada Wheat Project which has alienated over 400,000 hectares of the best grazing land in Hanang district. The dispute has been accompanied by numerous abuses against Barabaig, including assault, house burnings, shooting and confiscation of cattle, destruction of rights of way and a desecration of sacred sites, including destruction of graves by ploughing.
Legal procedures for alienating the land to which Barabaig had customary rights were improperly applied. In the face of court applications raising these issues the government, in 1989, extinguished customary land rights in the areas a under the occupancy of the para-statal National Agricultural and Food Corporation (NAFCO). The retroactive nature of this legislation violated basic principles of human rights law; it also enabled prosecutions to be brought against Barabaig for trespassing on land they considered their own.
Since then a human rights commission and legal rulings have vindicated Barabaig claims, but compensation has been paltry.
Current issues
In 2005 the African Commission on Human and People's Rights adopted a report of the Working Group of Experts on Indigenous Populations/Communities. The report found that Barabaig displacement has continued to various parts of Tanzania and Malawi, with other communities routinely objecting to their presence. Although NAFCO has abandoned the project that displaced the Barabaig in the first place, the land remains in the hands of the government, with talk of it being sold to willing buyers.

Off-leash dog park approved at city park
FORMER CITY MANAGER Gary Neffendorf and incumbent councilman Graham Pearson were sworn into office Monday evening by city secretary Shelley Britton as they begin two-year terms on the Fredericksburg City Council following their election on May 11. — Standard-Radio Post/Matt Ward
By Matt Ward —
Former Fredericksburg city manager Gary Neffendorf and incumbent councilman Graham Pearson took the oath of office to begin their two-year terms on the Fredericksburg City Council prior to the city's regular meeting Monday, which saw the council approve plans for an off-leash dog park at Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Park.
Jody Donovan, representing the Fredericksburg Dog Park Association (FDPA), presented the proposal, which passed by a 4-1 vote with Neffendorf opposed.
Donovan said the non-profit group would raise 100 percent of the construction and development costs.
FDPA will work in conjunction with city parks and recreation director Jimmy Alexander on the design and construction of the project.
The city's agreement, which will be drafted by City Attorney Pat McGowan, is expected to be similar to the agreement reached between the city and the Fredericksburg Morning Rotary Club for the planned skate park facility at Old Fair Park.
FDPA will return to the council with a finalized design at a future meeting.

Miami-Dade Mayor Alex Penelas began the public phase of his campaign for the U.S. Senate Monday. Penelas chose Tallahassee where he spent time in a job center. The mayor also showed he's a master at publicity.
Miami-Dade Mayor Alex Penelas spent more than an hour in the work force development center. Cameras were not allowed inside.
"I've heard a lot about having an incredible amount of over educated individuals in a job market that just simply doesn't have enough jobs for them," said Mayor Penelas.
The mayor was peppered with questions about the alleged incidents of violence by police during the FTAA meetings last week.
"And I stand by the fine men and women who were out there getting spit at, people throwing rocks at them, paint at them, bags full of manure. I stand by those folks. If anyone did something inappropriately we will look into it," Mayor Penelas added.
Penelas has raised $2 million and says winning the primary will take at least two million more, and has already started taking shots at the GOP.
"The problem is they are not just spending too much, they are also borrowing too much. It's borrow and spend, as opposed to tax and spend which is what they have accused democrats of doing," said Mayor Penelas.
The Miami-Dade mayor authored and pushed the pre-k amendment approved by voters in 2002 and has a statewide base from that campaign. Ten months remain before democrats choose a nominee.
Former education commissioner Betty Castor and south Florida congressman Peter Deutsche are the mayors likely democratic opponents. Five others are expected to vie for the seat in the republican primary.

verapamil (oral) (cont.)
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking verapamil?
You should not use verapamil if you are allergic to it, or if you have:
To make sure you can safely take verapamil, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
FDA pregnancy category C. It is not known whether verapamil will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while using this medication.
Verapamil can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
How should I take verapamil?
Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label.
Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results.
Do not crush, chew, break, or open an extended-release tablet or capsule. Swallow it whole. Breaking or opening the pill may cause too much of the drug to be released at one time.
If you have trouble swallowing a verapamil capsule whole, ask your doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to open the capsule and sprinkle the medicine into a spoonful of applesauce to make swallowing easier. Swallow this mixture right away without chewing. Do not save the mixture for later use. Discard the empty capsule.
Use verapamil regularly to get the most benefit. Get your prescription refilled before you run out of medicine completely.
Do not stop taking this medication without first talking to your doctor. If you stop taking verapamil suddenly, your condition may become worse.
If you are being treated for high blood pressure, keep using this medication even if you feel fine. High blood pressure often has no symptoms.
Verapamil may be only part of a complete program of treatment that also includes diet, exercise, and other medications. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely.
Your blood pressure will need to be checked often. Your kidney or liver function may also need to be tested. Visit your doctor regularly.
If you need surgery, tell the surgeon ahead of time that you are using verapamil. You may need to stop using the medicine for a short time.
Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.

The Voice Recap: The Top 6 Get Their Kicks
December 03, 2012 11:09 PM by Shayla Perry
Tonight on NBC's The Voice, each of the remaining 6 artists performed not once, but twice; one song that they chose, and another chosen by their coach. So…double the disappointment for Christina Aguilera, who doesn't have anyone left in the competition. (Sorry Xtina…and Dez Duron!) She's lovin' the opportunity to just sit back and enjoy the show as a viewer, like us. And the artist she's rooting for? Cassadee Pope! But which singer has Christina breathless after their amazing performance? All the highlights after the jump.
This week, Cee Lo Green was a bit under the weather, so he had his good friend, Pat Monahan, from Train step in to help his artists prepare for their performances.
First up, Nicholas David took everyone back to "September"…September of 1970-something. It's a more upbeat performance than we're used to seeing from the soulful crooner, but definitely not his best…or second best.
Cassadee Pope went back to what she does best — country music. She took on "Stand," but put just a little bit of pop-rock to it. Again, it's another performance lacking in the sheer awesomeness that we've seen in recent weeks; especially from Cassadee, who's consistently charted on iTunes since wowing us all with "Over You," but it was still solid; and enough to get her a standing ovation from coach Blake Shelton and self-proclaimed "co-coach," Christina Aguilera. (Hey, she needs something to do!)
Adam Levine's Amanda Brown opted for less rock this time with Aretha Franklin's "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman." Sooo happy that she's back to doing songs that more people are familiar with, and sooo in love with this performance. Girl power!
Scottish rocker, Terry McDermott did a pretty familiar song, too — "I Want to Know What Love Is." But to change things up a bit, Blake and Terry decide to drop most of the instruments and really strip the song down to highlight his voice. You know, so we can really hear how amazing he is. And he is amazing.
Trevin Hunte went up tempo again this week with "Walkin' On Sunshine." We love seeing Trevin smile and have fun on these faster songs, but we still prefer the slower ones. Okay…make that "preferred" the slower ones — past tense — because it was great seeing him do a little dancing in this performance. We'd hate to see him go home after that one.
Breaking out the black and blue hair this time, Melanie Martinez pays homage to the magnificent Cee Lo Green with her version of his hit, "Crazy." There were some pitch problems, but even with the imperfections, the rendition was pretty sweet. We smell another iTunes hit!
Terry McDermott hit the stage again with "Stay With Me," followed by Trevin, who blew everyone away with "And I Am Telling You." Seriously, this guy has no reason to have confidence issues EVER again in life. And he doesn't have to worry about a job after this either — because he's so good that an awestruck Christina extends an offer to take him out on the road with her if for some unexplained reason he doesn't get a record deal.
Back to the rock — Amanda Brown does White Snake's "Here I Go Again." Yup, it's official…she can do EVERY kind of song out there — and do it well.
For Melanie's second performance, Adam chose "The Show," for her. Perfect song choice; even if Blake didn't get it and Christina (as always) wasn't exactly feeling it. Kudos to Adam, and major props to the…um– props people for the…er– major props.
Christina's fave, Cassadee Pope, brought the house down with some Avril Lavigne. Then, Nicholas David closed the show with a surprise song choice, "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."
Who do you think will be sent home this week? What was your favorite performance? Sound off in the Comments section below.

That is harrassment. Period.

Beckham flattered by Redknapp interest but admits England return unlikely
08:12 29 November 2012
PA Archive/Press Association Images
David Beckham has revealed he has numerous offers to continue playing after his Los Angeles Galaxy career ends this weekend, but the former England captain does not expect a return to the Barclays Premier League.
The 37-year-old will bring the curtain down on six seasons in Major League Soccer in Saturday's MLS Cup final against Houston, and clubs are already lining up to sign the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star.
QPR boss Harry Redknapp and West Ham manager Sam Allardyce both recently declined to rule out a move for the former England international but Beckham all but ended any hope of a move back to the city where he was born.
"I'm lucky because at 37 years old, I've been offered some exciting options," Beckham told Sky Sports News. "I've got quite a few offers on the table."
But asked if a return to England was on the cards, the childhood United fan was more cautious.
"I've always said I think I would struggle to come back and play in England because I've played for the biggest club in the world, the biggest club in England, Manchester United, and I couldn't see myself playing for any other Premiership team.
"But you never know. Like I said, we've got some exciting options on the table. I do think we'll be spending a little more time in England because it's good for the kids to see their grandparents.
"Over the last six years it's been difficult not seeing them as much as we'd like and they'd like, but we definitely won't be leaving LA for good."
Beckham said he appreciated all the praise that has come his way from Redknapp and others.
"What I'm really touched about is the fact that I've still got great managers like Harry, like (Paris St Germain coach) Carlo Ancelotti coming out and saying great things about me, not saying they would like to sign me, but saying nice things about me.
"I've spent a couple of months with Harry when I was training at Tottenham. He doesn't have to say the things that he says so it's nice that he talks about me in such a nice way."
