Katherine McPhee, Another Second Place Winner

Let's face it, second place on "American Idol" is actually quite awesome.

You still get a record deal (Adam Lambert), a shot to make it huge (Clay Aiken) and the opportunity to become some tween sensation (David Archuleta). But above all, you still get the hoops (marketing), nets (production) and marbles (promotions) that make up the figurative world of the "AI" Mouse Trap game. The question is: Will you dive off the board and trigger the net at exactly the right moment to catch the cheese? That, my friends, is finally when talent comes into play.

Hello, ANN!   

The new Carolina blog pays tribute to Senator Edward M. Kennedy with Clay's "Measure of a Man" montage by gerwhisp and the remembrances of his colleagues. Like Clay, he has been a compassionate advocate for people, many who cannot speak for themselves.
