Last night Carole and Gerry found out that they were the two housemates with the most public votes but unknown to the housemates, Carole had polled 49% of the public vote, whilst Gerry had received 24%.
On hearing that he and Carole had the most public votes, Gerry accepted the news calmly.
Big Brother announced that the Gurus were then told to choose to evict one of the two; Gerry knew what he wanted them to say.
“Gerry,” he pleaded. “I want Carole to win the money. Show them I don’t want the money.” the twins looked shocked, but obeyed, while Tracey and Ziggy announced Gerry’s name more simply.
Gerry said that “I knew there would be a twist and I’m absolutely fine with it, it is very, very important for me for Carole to stay. This is the right thing.”
Do you think that the right person left the house last night?
Who do you think will win Big Brother 2008?

High School Musical 2 has finally arrived on our screens last night.
Vanessa Hudgens has said that her chemistry with “High School Musical 2″ co-star Zac Efron was there from the moment they started working together on the first instalment of the Disney channel mega-hit.
She said that we kind of hit it off from the very beginning. He’s not a hard guy to get along with so it was fun.”
When Vanessa was asked about her relationship with Zac she just grinned, but declined to reveal any details.
Vanessa said that “I try to keep it under wraps just because I’m a very private person and I like to keep my personal life to myself”.
Vanessa said that “Things get complicated in this one, there’s a lot of drama, a lot of romance.

OpenProj by Projity: The Next Step In The Open Source Solution
2007-08-18 05:21:54
The Open Source revolution has taken the technology world by storm. The fact that companies are prepared to develop software as good as the competition, if not better, and make it free to anyone who wants it, it changing the software world.
OpenProj from Projity is the next step in the open source revolution with an incredible average download rate of one download every 35 seconds, which puts OpenProj in the 99th percentile on Sourceforge.
The goal of OpenProj is to compete with Microsoft Project which has found its way onto 7% of all desktops in the world. That is a massive 28 million users that are potent customers for the latest FREE project software, OpenProj. Buying equivalent software costs hundreds of dollars and remember, you will probably have to cough up that amount again, or possibly more to upgrade every few years.
OpenOffice is testimony to the success of open source software. I have used OpenOffice for nearly two years and I will not be going back to Microsoft Office. Wh ...

Six People Missing After Hotel Fire: Penhallow Hotel in Newquay, Cornwall
2007-08-18 05:07:24
The four-storey Penhallow Hotel in Newquay, Cornwall caught fire last night/this morning which police called “a major incident”.
The hotel guests were said to be mostly elderly, now after the Cornwall Hotel fire the building that is left is just a shell.
After all the mayhem it has left one person confirmed dead and six others that are missing, police are saying that Newquay is a lively town with 24/7 nightlife and people could still be out but I find this hard to believe when they also say most of the hotel gusts were elderly.
Two adjoining hotels were evacuated after the flames spread under the roof and other hotels as well have been evacuated near by, police have said these people may be able to get back in the hotels by around 5pm.
An investigation has begun to find out what caused the fire and the ideal of a crime being commented has not been ruled out.
Anyone concerned about a friend or relative can call the helpline on 01254 889900.
