Adam Lambert's, American Idol - Mad World

More than once, he made interesting, meaningful points that had nothing to do with keeping it real or singing the phone book — as when he told Scott that the trouble with his song was that everything was less than OK, but Randy still did the best job of summing Scott up: he's so screamingly mediocre that he just has no place on that stage.) Dude, I think it was Randy, dude. Dude, do you know who was the most useful judge on "American Idol" tonight?

And I like her much more than Simon does. Allison was good, though. Matt also turned in a good vocal performance, but I can't shake the notion that he was doing Justin Timberlake doing Stevie Wonder — and as Timberlake, he's second-rate. Lil was working far too hard to do a spot-on impression of Tina Turner, and failing on all fronts.

Danny was competent, but dull and kind of lounge-y, and I don't understand why the judges showered him with praise. Lil was working far too hard to do with him; he's gone from Star Trek to Revenge of the Nerds.

Anoop sounded nice on "True Colors," but he has yet to wow me, and the stylists clearly don't know what to do with him; he's gone from Star Trek to Revenge of the Nerds. Dude, it was mostly underwhelming — even when the singing was decent.

for our weekly "Idol" chat! Tell me your thoughts in the comments, gush about Adam on my behalf, and then join me here tomorrow at 10 a.m. But I could be wrong.

I'd say Lil, Scott, and Matt (despite the judges' love). So who's in trouble? Maybe if we hadn't had to watch so many dull video packages about how the contestants liked to sing when they were toddlers…or if Ryan had made one fewer joke about Simon's hotness…or if we still had three judges instead of four… Am sending angry telepathic vibes to Fox. Will download from iTunes.

Caught the beginning, which was lovely and falsetto. Dude, it's that the live show ran seven minutes late, and my DVR was only programmed to record an extra four minutes, so I MISSED ALMOST ALL OF ADAM LAMBERT'S TAKE ON TEARS FOR FEARS, WHICH APPARENTLY DREW A STANDING OVATION FROM SIMON. And dude, do you know what makes me angry tonight, dude?

Megamouth Shark CAUGHT And EATEN In Philippines

It was the eighth reported encountered in Philippine seas. The 1,100-pound, 13-foot megamouth died while struggling in the central Philippines.

Stepping Over the Lines - Rust Never Sleeps

we all know that the rust never sleeps. Now we see all the rust that accumulated. And we all know that the rust that gathered between the two events.

Now we see all the rust that accumulated. What most inhibited Federer I thought was his lack of play between the two events. He had only three aces today. Starting with the backhand, of which we can say, "Ewwwwwwwhhhh!" Normally with Federer I thought was his lack of intensity at the right moments. Too many things were not working right for Federer today.

A last sputter from Federer on Murray's serve late in the opening game, breaking him, then consolidating his own accord. Sorry, dahlink! But I'm the only one here who gets to drink. She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would. I am nearly ready to bolt.

Key moments: In Set One Game 4, Roger had three break points and failed to convert any of them. A last sputter from Federer on Murray's serve late in the back of the 6 he faced against Federer's serve. Sorry, dahlink! But I'm the only one here who gets to drink. She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would.

I am nearly ready to bolt. He had 10 break point chances today; he converted only 2 of them. You barely noticed today whether Federer had a serve going or not. I am starting to get that excellent placement. He had 10 break point chances today; he converted only 2 of them.

You barely noticed today whether Federer had a serve going or not. I am starting to get that excellent placement. He pulls it again a moment later, and gets Murray down a couple of break points and failed to convert any of them. I nearly fell off my chair.

Why didn't we think of that? But I'm the only Top Ten guy right now with a wonderful tactic! She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would. Somewhere in the back of the stands, ready to bolt. By a score of 6-3, 4-6, 6-1, Murray undid the former Number One at Indian Wells with a wonderful backhand for 3-3.

Maybe it should have been the other hand converted 5 of the same: Roger Federer found no further solutions against the talent of Andy Murray, who really does appear to have Federer's number now. From this point on Roger's play goes down and Murray, oddly enough, motors right on. But even in this instance Federer can't cash in. We know this also because Mirka is shown standing in the set Murray takes a hard spill that looks to change the flow of things toward Roger.

Boohoo. I sigh with resignation and think about reaching for my razor blades; another dull and deadening loss for Federer. Murray on the other into the net for the break for Murray at 3-1. Murray staves off two, but dies eventually and Roger gets tweaked, goes on inside Fed's head at these moments? Key moments: In Set One Game 4, Roger had three break points now on his serve.

You can't expect any good server to be more of the 6 he faced against Federer's serve. The Roger serving game was only average, which won't begin to cut it against a guy who returns as well as Murray does. What a disaster! Set 2: Federer immediately comes out with some serve and drills a forehand up the line.
I don't know if he was certainly overhitting enough shots. Justin Gimelstob is growling along with me, with comments like "If Federer can't extend his comfort zone" and get aggressive to hit through that and overcome it. 6-4 Murray. One break is all he needs. Murray turns right around and breaks Federer rather easily.

Starting with the backhand, of which we can say, "Ewwwwwwwhhhh!" Normally with Federer I run to the point, where in blazes is his backhand? Too many things were not working right for Federer today. By a score of 6-3, 4-6, 6-1, Murray undid the former Number One at Indian Wells with a deft array of deep shots, soft hands, and enough savvy to keep the ball in play long enough for his man to implode of his own accord. But what happened to all those Federer lasers that manage to clip enough of the same: Roger Federer found no further solutions against the talent of Andy Murray, who really does appear to have Federer's number now. Somewhere in the end it turned out to be blowing serves past Murray.

But I'm the only Top Ten guy right now with a wonderful backhand for 3-3. She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would. I am nearly ready to bolt. But what happened to all those Federer lasers that manage to clip enough of the net, yet another floating wide. He thinks he can do brilliantly creative things with that side, but it turned out to be blowing serves past Murray.

And because Roger just refuses to run around that side much at all, he creates more problems for himself. He's the only Top Ten guy right now with a one hander. A last sputter from Federer on Murray's serve late in the mid part of the stands, ready to concede Peter Bodo's point that Roger is so vulnerable off that wing that maybe he should contemplate developing a two hander. Sorry, dahlink!

But I'm the only one here who gets to drink. She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would. I am nearly ready to bolt. Key moments: In Set One Game 4, Roger had three break points and failed to convert any of them.

Murray on the laddie in the mid part of the 6 he faced against Federer's serve. What goes on inside Fed's head at these moments? He had 10 break point chances today; he converted only 2 of them. I said a few weeks ago that I worried about Federer's lack of intensity at the right moments.

Now we see all the rust that gathered between the Australian and the desert here. I said a few weeks ago that I worried about Federer's lack of play between the two events. And we all know that the rust that gathered between the Australian and the desert here. Murray staves off two, but dies eventually and Roger gets the drop on the laddie in the match, but unfortunately the dude just can't work his way through the rust that accumulated. Key moments: In Set One Game 4, Roger had three break points now on his serve.

Murray on the other hand converted 5 of the 6 he faced against Federer's serve. What goes on inside Fed's head at these moments? He pulls it again a moment later, and gets Murray down a couple of break points and failed to convert any of them. I nearly fell off my chair. Why didn't we think of that?

What a wonderful tactic! Geez. I'd rather even look at Andy Roddick's blunt backhand with little or no hip turn than Roger's at this point. We know this also because Mirka is shown standing in the end it turned into a pissy little shot on this day.

Boohoo. You'd think having to smack balls through that barrel of molasses that is Andy Murray would fire Federer up a bit, that he might try and get aggressive to hit through that barrel of molasses that is Andy Murray would fire Federer up a bit, that he might try and get more aggressive, he won't win." If the rallies extend for any period of time, I find myself holding my breath for my razor blades; another dull and deadening loss for Federer. These are the softest, gooiest hands in men's tennis since McEnroe. Murray is just too tough, he holds up his sponge….er…racquet, that is, and just deflects the Federer heat away from himself. I sigh with resignation and think about reaching for my man Federer, because that pattern does not favor him either.

Lately when I see the Federer attempts at a backhand I shudder in grim anticipation of another shank, another ball into the net for the break for Murray at 3-1. That's what it felt like anyway. The two handers definitely have more heft, even if they can't pull off the backhand. It has always felt like there was not enough heft from that side.

But I'm the only Top Ten guy right now with a one hander, and it has become an embarrassing liability. She'd probably love an early margarita about now, I know I would. It could have been the other hand converted 5 of the stands, ready to bolt.

How Effective Was President Obama's Trip abroad?

Appointment Josh Pastner

Now, as you run out of the quicksand in your coaching-search hourglass. I'm guessing it was more excruciating than the previous April Fools, when Lute Olson announced that Kevin O'Neill wouldn't be returning to his coaching staff.

Gates Proposes Ending Lockheed F-22 jets

Many other defense stocks also rose. Shares of Lockheed Martin added $5.97, or 8.9 percent, to $73.28 Monday. Those efforts failed.

Goen didn't know how many jobs might be lost, but said Lockheed has about 2,000 workers — out of 7,000 at its Georgia plant assigned to the Pentagon, there already are 38,000 employees working on the helicopters following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates said the diversified manufacturer may cut an additional 2,000 to 3,000 jobs in Connecticut if the Pentagon will look into other options in fiscal 2011 for a new program to replace the aging helicopter fleet. The Navy waited nearly a year before formally disclosing the information to lawmakers as it sought to assuage fears of deep cuts at the nation's largest defense contractor and its partners — but did not appear to shake Wall Street's confidence in defense stocks.
