Re: “ART REVIEW: "It Came From the Vault"”
Michael: Nope, she really means art competition. Believe it or not, the modern Olympics indeed had artistic components for a few decades, and the winners were awarded medals, just like the athletes:

Re: ““Doctor Who” Season 7: “Journey to the Center of the TARDIS””
The bomb like device future Doctor gave to past Doctor disrupted the magnetic beam from the salvage ship - saving the Tardis. Also, I'm pretty sure the Doctor retained his memory of the event based on his, "do you feel safe?" questions.
I think the whole thing about the Doctor also trying to get Clara to like the Tardis is because she has been completely underwhelmed, unimpressed, and even mean to it right from the get-go. Chalking it up to the same way a boy would react when the new girlfriend hates his fancy vintage sports car that he spent so much time refurbishing and putting love/care into.
The only glaring thing here that really bothered me: he said the Tardis can't self destruct. It can, and it has - back in the episode where he blew it up to create a new sun. Also the Text of the book should not have been readable, you've got a really good lead there.
I seriously hope it's not River's daughter. But I'm beginning to wonder about the granddaughter comment he made in an earlier episode, plus the mention of the Time War here... Maybe hints that we will learn more about the Time War and his original family?
Re: “ART REVIEW: "It Came From the Vault"”
I 'd like to applaud the author of "It Came From the Vault" for her opinion that art was part of the '32 Olympics, but unfortunately the last sentence of the article should read "...back when the Olympic Games included a TENNIS [not ART] competition.

No. Clara could understand it because of the Encyclopedia Gallifrey leaking.

I think that Cara Could be Dr. Who child. Her mother would be River.

In the books, Loras joins the King's Guard and hence not available to marry. I can't remember if marriage was discussed before his appointment.
Thanks for the review. I am looking forward to the Red Wedding. :-)

Re: “"American Idol" 2013: Results (Top 4 to...Top 4)”
I didn't get the memo and have no idea when the season actually ends...other than knowing it is soon! So, I was surprised. Have to admit that I really don;t want anybody to go home.....well, that's a lie....i wouldn't mind if Angie went. (but that won;t happen being poster child for american girl and all)
it has been fun this season when they bring on the real artist on the judging night. Drake was sweet and everyone seemed so thrilled. Ratings move?
Stephano. I had completely forgotten about him. And I have also completely forgotten the song from last night. Liked his glasses tho.
Lee. Yes, sounded like the Luminere;s (or however you spell it) Still.....I think he did a really good job of it. How long does it take to do anything musically post American Idol?
(My mind was deep in GOT and I had a lot of trouble refocusing on AI) I know....need a life.
Re: “"Doctor Who" Season 7: "Hide"”
Why did the TARDIS show Clara herself? Because the TARDIS is a female, and it doesn't like her...probably because of the Doctor's inordinate interest in her. It projected her image as "the thing she esteems most" as an insult. True or not doesn't matter, at least not to a TARDIS scorned.
Re: ““RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 5: Courtroom drama”
Jinxx all the way. Roxxxy does not have the personality people should be relating to the gay world. WHAT A B*TCH! Her own style, grace, the ability to bring a smile to a person's face. That's the next superstar. That is Jinxx.
Re: ““RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 5: Courtroom drama”
oops....and one more thing: If there is any truth to the winner of American Idol totally being manipulated from behind the scenes: then Angie is their girl. She has the look , she's vanilla & she's a bit of a Girl Scout.
Re: ““RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 5: Courtroom drama”
@Eric: (damn)
The judges kept saying last night that it wasn't about their voices anymore. has to be the 'right' song, bring out their emotion blahblahblah. They have a point tho....as their voices are all excellent. So much can go wrong tho:
Amber: 'Power of Love" & "McArthur Park"...both totally didn;t fit her. Voice pristine. She looked great. Nikki said she looked like a big glass of sexy milk when singing the Celine Dion song.
Candice: "Emotion" & something forgettable by Drake. Voice fabulous...a weird arrangement of one of the songs and she ended up missing the melody. lack lustre performance compared to other weeks. Also, she has a cold/
Angie: The judges praised her but I totally didn't hear it. She sang her beloved Jessie J and I just don;t like that overly emotional stuff that just isn't enjoyable music to me. Then, "Cry me a River" which was better but so overdone and I don;t think she brought anything new to the table.
Kree: sort of blew it with both. Jimmie said that one bluesy number has been sung 100 x and he is right....then sang "A Whiter Shade of Pale"...great tune, lovely voice but I've already forgotten the performance.
Duets: Amber/Kree...voices good, song of Adelle's (& did you say this? I never want to hear another Adelle song at these shows)..kind of a quiet job....
Candance/Angie: Stay (Rhianna). I took a Gravol before this performance but the girls rose to the occasion and both belted out their sides and did a bit of a Diva thang.
The judges generally were all over Angie. I didn't get it at all....then, I don;t get her...or her crying grandmother who was brought on stage. I think dear Kree may be in the bottom in terms of worst performance of the 4.

Cathy: Alas, no "Idol" blog today. I returned home last night to discover that my machine did not record a single second of it. I'm going to trouble shoot what went wrong tonight but I'm committing to not being out of the house during "Idol" broadcasts for the next three weeks until the finale. But I WILL have a blog up tonight as soon as the episode airs. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Re: ““Doctor Who” Season 7: “Journey to the Center of the TARDIS””
L: I will have to rewatch the episode again, but I am almost positive that Clara did not tip over the bottle of Encyclopedia Gallifrey until AFTER she read the book. She knocked over the bottles while hiding from the monster. She was unaware of the bogeyman while reading the book (otherwise she wouldn't have been reading the book).
Deb: My reading of the Doctor's line about "Do you feel safe?" was not that he remembered the events of the episode, but that there was a kind of emotional echo -- that he knew he should be worrying about those issues, but didn't know why. I have absolutely nothing to base that on aside from a gut feeling and the way that changing time has been shown on this series before. Do I think that ultimately both the Doctor AND Clara will remember what went down this past episode? Yep. It all served the purpose of dramatic irony, letting the audience know that a) the Doctor is still completely freaked out by whatever Clara is and b) Clara really does not seem to know that she isn't what she seems. But for the next two episodes, before the finale, they can operate as though nothing has changed.
