The POV contest will be early in the morning - then there will be the POV ceremony, then the eviction - then the new HoH.  We may have A LOT of fish-time tommorow as all those things are not usually shown on the feeds.  Then again maybe BB will let us see them - I'll sure be watching.

From what I have read - In the POV contest Rachel will participate with Janelle - April with Jennifer and Ivette with Maggie.
 

8pm  Guess who is getting cozy with the Jan/How/Rac alliance?  Yes - James.

7:35pm  James and Janelle talking in the Gold Bedroom - Janelle has not gotten in the HoH room yet.  Janelle is asking him who is the strongest - James suggests Maggie - he explains she is the one that holds them together - gives them pep talks (I agree - James seems to be being very up front with Janelle).

7:25pm  Sour grapes on one side as usual and confidence on the other side.  Nothing new there.  Ivette and Jennifer discussing things - Jennifer listing the positive things - she made it so far - she is only one of 3 pairs still in the house, yadda yadda..

7pm  They think the POV contest will be tommorow - I am guessing it will be POV, then POV ceremony - the evictions after that.  Then another HoH competition.

6pm Janelle Nominated Maggie and Jennifer
Correction - not sure about a POV before the vote.
New HoH after the Evictions Saturday.

Show will likely NOT be live Saturday - chances are the eviction will be tommorow (my guess)

Jennifer apparently threw the HoH key - I haven't see the show yet...

5:50pm Janelle new HOH

5:45pm Kaysar Evicted.....

4pm - Showtime soon - updates as soon as I have them!!

1:20pm  James thinks that the HoH competition will be some type of 'shooting' contest - he says he can hear them testing some type of guns in the backyard.

12:20pm  The hgs are on lockdown in the HoH room - BB is in the backyard setting up something for what will most likely be the HoH competition.  As I write this my server has dumped out on me for the third time this week and i am VERY frustrated.  I've had nothing but good things to say about them for the last 2 1/2 years - but this week they are really dissapointing me.  35 minutes on hold to be told it MAY be back up in an hour.....  grumble grumble....

11:20am - Details of the news and my thoughts here: Someone is leaving tonight AND Saturday.

11am Thank you Kellie who wrote me and pointed me to a reliable source that confirms that tonight the new HoH will have to immediatly make 2 nominations and that there will be an eviction on Saturday.  No word on if there will be a POV between now and then - but I would have to suspect not.  Also no word if the HoH will change again on Saturday.  More as soon as I know it.  Wow!!

10am There are reports at various sites sighting a "Press Release" from CBS that there will be two evictions this week (one on Saturday - then again on Thursday).  I wish I could confirm it but I can't at this point - once I do I will post it here.

7:30am  Here is a screencap someone over at TVClubhouse posted of the banner plane from yesterday afternoon.  Obviously the feed quality is not good enough to see the banner in detail - but apparently the 'enhanced' text was the body of the message (although I have seen various versions across the net) - all indicate it was directed at April and in some cases Jennifer and the "DOR"  which means "Drop on Request" or "Depart on Request" - meaning to walk out of the house.  You can see the top of the BB compund at the bottom of the picture.

Here is a picture with the "enhanced" stuff removed - makes what was actually seen on the feeds a little easier to understand.

6am  The house is asleep...  late night happenings....  Rachel again spoke with James, he seems evasive and feels Rachel is the only one interested in him working with them (Because Kaysar is not really talking to him). Rachel says things would have been a lot different had she not let Howie have HoH 2 weeks ago.  The 'friendship' alliance had a lil meeting in the HoH room but honestly I dunno what for except maybe a group bash session - they are not 'studying' as hard as Janelle, and Howie are for the potential HoH (reviewing things from the food competitions).

There was a banner yesterday as well apparently - from what I saw it was a not-nice one and directed towards April and Jennifer.  The HGs did see it - or some of them - they were sent inside and told NOT to discuss it.

Today will be a clean the house day - then probably a dress rehearsal for the HoH competition since I doubt it will be physical like Howie was hoping.  So chances are it will be a 'slow' day until this evening as far as 'strategizing' goes.

Kaysar, Howie and Janelle are going over everything that happened in the food competitions (they think it might be part of the HoH competition tommorow.  Maggie, Jennifer and Beau play cards.

and with that I am off to bed - night

9:50pm  Currently the feeds are offline - have been for almost an hour.....   not that anything bad was happening - I think it is a technical thing.  Correction - they are working for a few people - alas I am not one of them....  April was talking to James and apparently bashed Jennifer to him - saying she wanted to stay if it was her and Jen - this is a 180 from everything she has been saying - hmmmmm

Howie has been acting up a little - but nothing too terrible - James has been glued to Ivette - but I am sure he will jump ship from the others in the friendship alliance if one of the other side wins HoH.  Ivette and James may end up going far with the current mood in the house.

7:50pm  Not a whole lot going on today.  Here are the few tidbits I picked up.

Who is going tommorow?  Hard to say - I still think it is Kaysar - but no on ehas tipped their hand that I can see - the closest I saw was April asking Maggie if they did the right thing - Maggie implied they did.  Rachel again talked to James and told him his only chance at the money was to stick with them (she's right - but no need for him to show anything until after HoH).  Rachel and Kaysar spoke - it seems Kaysar, if he managed to stay, might still go after James - not THAT would be silly at this point.  Of anyone in the house that would switch sides - he would be the one.  More later if I see anything to report - Howie seems to still be behaving.  Oh - I need to watch 'housecalls' from today - I guess Arnold (one of the producers) was on the show and he said Howie WAS NOT told to kncok it off - I want to see it for myself - I can't believe he just stopped on his own.

2:45pm  The 'memory wall' has changed -  the pictures on the wall that usually contain the faces of the HGs now has pictures of them involved in the previous food competitions.  They are not sure what it means - perhaps a clue for the next HoH competition.

12:45pm  Its voting day - no sign that the HGs in power have changed their mind so i am assuming it is Kaysar that is going out on Thursday - other than that - not much to report!!   Thank you for all the votes - that poll is over a year old I think so I am very impressed with the number of votes in just a matter of a few hours :)  Means a lot to me!!

9am - Here is a little RANT by me ;) - Pick a side if you want but no side is "good."

6am  Kaysar is awake... I'm not sure if he ever went to sleep.  But now he might be back in bed - so maybe it was just a potty-break.

Last night Kaysar was giving advice to Janelle and Howie - he implies they should still try to get rid of James (huh?).  He told them Rachel's plan to try to get James to work with them would not work.  Ummmmm  Kaysar - note to Kaysar - you are not thinking straight here - WHY would you put out James before any of the friendship at this point?  Rachel is right that if any of the friendship makes the final two your alliance has no chance.  Maybe Katsar has lost his ability to play the BB game.

Janelle and Howie also recounted more of the POV game - which sounds like was heavily edited for TV.  As I had thought - Kaysar 'threw' the game to let Rachel win - his miss on the 3rd toss was intentional.  Apparently there were rules for a tie-breaker but according to Kaysar - Ivette and James did not share those rules with everyone - they (Kaysar and Howie) think that James and Ivette wanted anyone BUT Kaysar to win the POV so he would be eligible to be nominated by Jennifer.  Of course this could all be sour grapes.

8:30pm  April just said she never brought up Kaysars name (sounded like she meant with Jennifer) and she has implied she wanted James gone but had to go with the 'majority' - on the show tonight she was shown telling Jennifer directly that between the two she wanted Kaysar gone before James.  And apparenlty the HGs were dancing while we had the long fishcam last night - BB was playing them music - Rachel says it is the most she has danced in years.

8:25pm  In the HoH room Ivette, Maggie and Jennifer talking.  Jennifer actually revealing some personal details - things she usually doesn't do.  She and her boyfriend both had sex with one other person when they were not together, they are the same age, etc etc etc...  Ivette tells them that Rachel told James that he shoudl join them.  They also think that after this afternoon's lockdown Howie was warned by the producers to knock it off (verbally going after April) because he has been so nice since. 

7:45pm  Its been pretty quiet - HGs have been eating dinner - no real conflicts that I have noticed and I don't think James has talked to anyone about what Rachel had to say - yet....

5:30pm  The only real news of note is April having well over a one hour session in the Diary Room - earlier today I heard her say she wanted to talk directly to either Allison or Arnold  (The execitive producers).  She wanted to know exactly what was 'crossing the line' - in other words how much can Howie get away with?

3pm  Rachel told James what she talked about below - he said he had not thought of that - he said he will think about it.  Briefly she told James he can't win if he plays with the Friendship group - he has to play with Rachel and company - because he has to make the final two with one of them to stand a chance at winning (and she is right).

2:40pm  Lockdown was over a while ago and the Friendship Alliance headed inside.  Then Rachel and Howie spoke - Howie wants to offer James any deal he wants.  Rachel says she is going to talk to him ALONE later and to leave her alone when she does.  She plans on telling him he (James)  has no chance of wining unless he is against one of them in the final two - the friendship alliance will vote for any of their alliance members no matter who they are against - so in order for James to win he needs to be up against one of them.  She is right too - if ANY of the friendship alliance makes the final two they will win.  There will be 5 Friendship alliance in the final 9 - so they will have a majority vote no matter who is in the final two.  Well if two Friendship are in the final two then they won't have a majority vote - but one of them will still win.

2:05pm  HGs still on an outside lockdown.  Non stop verbal assault by Howie....  I am sure a little of this will make it on Thursdays show - I doubt any of it is on tonight's show though.

1:51pm - My provider had problems again today....  as I write this they are still down.. grrrrr  - 2 1/2 years of pretty much flawless performance and problems the last two days.

Howie is going off on April again - he calls her 'busto' - calls he husband fat.....  this time April is surrounded by her group so she is holding up very nicely.   April tells her group she is ok - she is not the one embarrasing herself on National TV.  Howie's mantra is "Don't hate the houseguest, hate the game!!" 

12:41pm  The rest of the house has finally rolled out of bed.  The 'friendship' alliance is eating outside.  Ivette is telling them they need to ignore the others - and while they agreed at first April and Beau seem to be plotting things to say....  expect more fireworks today.

11:45am  Jennifer, April and Maggie are still hiding out (sleeping?) in the HoH room and the camera's have not showed the room all morning either.... 

11:34 - Correction - it is Ivette that I saw - not Jennifer.  Beau is also up - bet his head is pounding from a hangover.

11:30am  I have yet to see anyone besides Howie, Rachel, Kaysar and Janelle on the feeds this monring.  I think James may be up - Kaysar is sleeping - Janelle is in the Diary Room.  Oh wait - Jennifer migt be up and in the kitchen - but it is a far away shot.  Howie has told Rachel that he is going to be the 'bad guy' on the show now - but every show needs one and this is TV afterall.

10:15am  Janelle is still up - Kaysar went to bed.  Rachel and Howie are now up as well.

Howie says he plans to continue to mentally assault April and the other members of the alliance - the whole reason for this is to keep them unbalanced so they have less of a chance to win the HoH competition.  That and I think Howie is enjoying not having to pretend to get along with everyone.

6am  Believe it or not is has been pretty quiet since my last post.  Beau tossed his cookies around 12am  and it seems like Janelle and Kaysar pulled an all-nighter - they are still up at the moment eating and talking at the Dining Room table.  Janelle says she plans on continuing to be an 'ass' - Kaysar says he has never seen it be so effective - Janele says they (the other alliance) are so easy to 'break down.'

Around 3:15 Howie blew up at April who had been going on and on about how Rachel and Howie were not interested in Janelle (Rachel saying she wanted 3 weeks of safety for her and Howie) - this was said outside in front of Howie, Rachel, Janelle and Kaysar.  The thing that set him off was April saying she was not in it for the money.  Howie, in a nutshell told her she was going to be evicted when he wins HoH this week.  He also told her she would be stuck in sequester without her dog, husband, etc.  He told her she was a weak player, had not won anything, etc etc etc...  this went on for about 10 minutes - Maggie eventually came outside and at the end April went inside.

Howie made a point to say he didn't break any rules.  Then a long conversation happened between Howie, Kaysar, Rachel, Janelle and Maggie - about all the goings on in the house leading up to the current situation. 

The afternoon simmered along and at some point the alcohol came out... the main drinkers seem to have been Beau, Janelle and April.

Around 6:15pm or so things blew up again with Howie again verbally going after April - she ended up in tears in the bathroom.

After over an hour of FISH  things seemed to have calmed a little.  It sounds like the HGs may have had Pizza in a vain attempt by BB to mend fences.

When things finally resumed the HGs were kinda in their respective corners - the friendship alliance in the HoH room and the other alliance in the Gold Room.  Janelle and Beau however started to get into it where Janelle was calling Beau all kinds of names (gold digger, etc) and Beau was firing right back.  I thought it was just playful name calling. But later on Beau appeared to be upset.  There was some pushing between the two as well - later in the HoH room Beau implied Janelle pushed him first - and for a bit I thought that BB might rule they had gotten too physical.  It appears not to be the case though.

Yet again things seem to settle down - then Janelle says she wants to go home - so she goes around telling Ivette and others to vote her out.

Meanwhile BB decides the alcohol needs to go and so Ivette and Kaysar carry it to the Storage Room (10:30pm).

Between 10:30pm and 11pm we have another incident...  Howie and Janelle approach April to mess with her again.  Janelle tells her she wants to be voted out - April says fine.  Howie continues to rip into April - calling her name after name - April finally comes back at Howie with a comment about his hands (I guess Howie is missing a finger or two) - Howie blows it off - his entire purpose is just to be loud and get under April's skin and it works.  Again we get Fish and when the feeds come back the Alliances are back in their rooms yet again.

Lights out at 11pm - we'll see if things calm down.  April is crying in the HoH room - last I saw Janelle and Howie were quite pleased with themselves in the Gold Room.

Maggie, "This house is a monster."
 

2:10pm  April is NOT good at bs'ing - she needs to stop talking.  She told Janelle that Jennifer had to go with the majority....  she said April and Jennifer would have been better served to keep Kaysar - so let me see here...  five people in the alliance and April and Jen wanted to keep Kaysar... so that means the other three wanted him gone?

Another argument that has not been called out yet.  Jennifer claims Kaysar only suggested Maggie and someone else in her alliance.  I personally heard Kaysar tell Janelle and Howie that he got Jennifer to promise to nominate Ivette and Beau.  April says Kaysar is lying.  Janelle does not call her on this point.  Why would Kaysar lie to his team about who he suggested?  He has no reason.  Why would Jennifer lie?  Because she knows that saying she agreed to nominate Ivette and Beau would have resulted in a much stickier situation.

The Friendship Corporate Lines

• "It was a strategic move"
• "Things Change"
• "It was a group decision"
• Friendship, "You were going to vote out Ivette."  Them, "But we didn't!" Friendship, "But you considered it!" 

2pm  Things have settled down - the groups are for the most part seperated and are now re-hashing everything.  This will go on for the next 3 days - I don't see any major fights happening - interestingly enough April is telling Janelle that Rachel was working against Janelle (by suggesting 3 weeks of safetly for her and Howie).  Janelle in turn tells April that SHE (April) told her her 'partner' was not going up and she lied.

1pm - Tempers are flaring - but no violence....  Jennifer is pretty strong standing up to Kaysar, Maggie is pretty smug as well - can't blame them, and can't blame Howie, Janelle and Kaysar for feeling screwed over.  Kaysar hased asked Jen if she can cry on cue.  Jen maintains that she did consider Kayars wants but it was a "group" decision.

12:30  She did it - Jennifer nominated Kaysar.  Howie implies he is going to cause trouble - has nothing to lose.  James says "America you can have your gift back."

Well - that about finishes off this week.....  Kaysar is most likely gone and the next big happening will be the HoH Thursday.  GO JAMES!!!  (I am his newest 'fan')

11:40am  Whew - my provider was acting up for a bit there...  its all FISH now - but I'll tell you this much - I bet the producers don't like Jennifer - she reduses to let them know her plans it seems.  And I have to agree that playing a song titled 'stupid girl'  the day she is possibly going to backdoor Kaysar does seem pretty underhanded - lol.  The POV was not supposed to be for another 20 minutes - Jen was still in the HoH room when the feeds went to fish.

11:15am...  Still 45 minutes to the POV ceremony.  The Friendship alliance meets in the HoH bathroom.  BB played a song this morning called "Stupid Girl"  - Jennifer picked up on it and so did Howie and others.....

Jennifer is very mad - she feels BB was trying to give away that she might put up Kaysar.  Jennifer also wonders if CBS might be sending her a message that she is dumb not to take James out now.  Jennifer says even the producers are mad at her for not revealing her strategy ahead of time.  She says she now wants to do it even more (I assume to nominate Kaysar).

10:30am  POV ceremony is to take place around 12pm  --  Big Brother just announced it - most of the HGs are still sleeping.  Rachel, James and Ivette are waiting on the others to get up.

6:30am  Late night happenings...  Not much to report...  Kaysar and Jannelle had a long talk, or maybe I should say Kaysar went on a long 'rant.'  Not like he was yelling but he is not happy with himself and the way things have gone this week.  He really regrets being 'nice' and trusting Jennifer and suspects that he may get put up today during the POV ceremony (and it sounds like he will be correct).

Tommorw after the POV ceremony things may be very crazy.  If James is saved then the 'friendship' alliance will be huddled in the HoH room saying all kinds of mean and nasty things and the other alliance will be huddled in the Gold Room doing the same.  This will all happen sometime in the afternoon Monday (tommorow) - the one last week took place at 12pm.  If you STILL have not tried out the live feeds then this will be your BEST shot to see some fireworks.

Here are two shots from tonights live feeds - click wither to see in full size.

5:05pm  April to Jennifer in the HoH room, "We are the hottest 'couple.'"  Referring to the partnerships.  Jennifer mentions Ashlea and Janelle and April says that they are the ones you have a one-night stand with - April and Jennifer are the ones you bring home to mom.

4:50pm  Compare and contrast - why YOU got it better.....  pardon my venting....  Ivette is upset she didn't get anything....  April is complaining a little because Maggie's card or note included a bit more info than hers (she feels this is because Maggie's b/f had more time to put something together)  - maybe it is because I am a guy but these people just can't seem to be HAPPY for each other.   Maggie and April talk about their pets like they are their children (I know I know - some people CAN'T have kids and I do not mean to sound insensitive but MY GOSH - they are animals - not people - I think I am just getting old). 

3:40pm  Cake and Ice Cream to celebrate Maggie and Kaysar's birthday.  They both got presents and cards from home.  Ivette is upset because she didn't get anything in recognition of her anniversary with her girlfriend (I believe it was 9 months?).  She said she would have married her girlfriend if she could but that isn't allowed of course.  So she feels very much ripped off.  Kaysar got a 20 gig MP3 player among other things and Maggie got a Sony PSP.  They think they will get to keep the electronics until midnight.

12:30pm  The HGs are up and about - Ivette was just talking about how during the HoH competition she was told she was disqualified 8 minutes after it happened - they then asked her to wait because they were low on cameramen and needed to get some shots before they officially announced it - she said she was so mad.

11:15am  Rachel is the only HG up and about - all the more reason to think today is going to be a day of R&R for the BB houseguests.
 

9am  A house full of sleeping HGs....  Not sure what will be on the agenda today.  Not sure if Kaysar is safe....  Jennifer is the BEST HoH so far at not tipping her hand to anyone.  Kudos to her for that.  Unless there is a Luxury competition or BB decides to make them compete for food this week (doubtful) OR they move the POV ceremony up a day (VERY Doubtful) - today will be a lot of sitting around and bashing/plotting/backstabbing - all in the hopes of the POV ceremony going the way the basher wants it - and the entire house is guilty of 'bashing' other HGs so not going to single anyone out.

12:45pm  Someone did win the POV - not sure who.  Kaysar threw the POV from the sounds of it.  I am guessing that Rachel may have won the POV.  Of course now the Friendhip Alliance is talking about voting out someone besides James.  Ivette is pushing very hard to get Kaysar put up and voted out.  This will be a long couple of days with many twists and turns.  The friendship alliance may very well break the agreement to get out James.  The POV ceremony will not be until Monday

11:45am  Looks like the POV competition is going on - the fishcam has been on for a while.  James is not participating so he cannot with the POV for the 4th time. April was going to compete with Jennifer, Kaysar with Janelle and Howie with Rachel.  The have been re-assuring themselves all morning that someone just needs to win it so they can get james nominated.  If the Big Brother gods are smiling down upon the non-friendship alliance than Howie or Rachel will win it because Rachel is the one that will be voted out if no one gets the POV - So if James does get on the block - Rachel would be a more attractive target to turn people against as opposed to Janelle - make sense? 

11:15am  Everyone is up - the Power of Veto contest should take place sometime soon.  I have a feeling there is no food competition this week.

9:25am  No big news overnight.  James and Jennifer did speak again late last night - Jennifer pretty much told him there isn't much hope for him.  Rachel as always was the first one up.  She is not handling being nominated very well.  It is always interesting to see someone who has looked so strong when playing as a HoH or just a regular HG, look kinda weak and insecure once they are nominated.  Dangit Rachel - buck up!!!

12:10am  April and Jennifer are out of the room and Maggie takes this opportunity to let Ivette know that the only person that can really benefit from James staying - or will benefit the most - is Ivette.  Maggie tells Ivette that she is telling Ivette this in the absense of April and Jennifer because she doesn't want to make too big a thing of it.  Ivette REALLY keeps trying but now that I heard Maggie say that I am sure James is going if he gets on the block.  Maggie, imho is the most logical/fair player on this alliance.

A funny thing.... Jennifer earlier said to the group that she thought Ivette was the strongest player (lol - to me it is pretty obvious this was said for Ivette's benefit).  Jennifer also revealed she considered nominating Maggie - actually that she had agreed to nominate Maggie - this didn't sit well with Maggie - but eventually she said she understood.

10pm  Its time for the HoH summit with Jennifer and her 'alliance.'  Everyone has not assembled yet - but Jennifer, April, Maggie and Beau have already said that James is indeed the target.  It sounds like now that Jennifer has NOT explained fully that she made promises to Kaysar.  She is waiting for Ivette to arrive so she can tell them all what happened in the 'box' last night/this morning.  The plan also means that if there is no POV Rachel will go.

9:10pm  Kaysar fills Janelle on what was said - she tells Kaysar that April and Jennifer came to them.  Kaysar says that Jennifer re-assured him the plan is still to get out James.

9pm A bit ago Kaysar met with Jennifer and she explained some of her reasoning in the nominations.  She told Kaysar that she trusts him - but cannot trust the others because of what happenned last week - that they tried to break the agreement and evict Ivette.  Kaysar shakes his head as if this is news to him and says he understands now....  I dunno if he buys it or not.  I WISH someone would explain it all - I won't say the plan to evict Ivette was all Aprils but she wasn't just 'playing along' - she and Jennifer discussed it seriously on several occasions when they were alone - if they were not considering it those conversations would not have happened.  Gotta hand it to Jennifer - she is no longer a 'floater' - she is one of the power players in the house.

8:15pm  Howie and Kaysar console Rachel.

8:02pm  James is playing a big time sympathy card with Jennifer - he says that Howie and Kaysar are both smiling at him and taunting him.  He says that the other team is 'evil' - he asks to stay in Jennifer's room a bit because he feels that he can't be around anyone out in the rest of the house.  He is kissing ass majorly.  Jenn is not saying a whole lot - I can't tell if she is buying it or not.

8:00pm ARGHHH - James just said that it is Rachel and Janelle nominated - sorry!!!

7:55pm James is in talking to Jennifer in the HoH room - sounds like Jennifer admitted that she was not keepign a promise to Kaysar during the nomination ceremony.  James seems to be pleading his case to prevent being "back doored."  James said he quit the HoH competition because he did not want to become 'like' Janelle and Rachel and others on the other alliance.  God this guy is good - he bullshits better than a lot of former HGs.
 

7:53pm  Now it looks like Rachel and Howie are nominated...  Howie is sure they are backdooring James (at least he is hoping they are). 

7:40pm  It appears that Rachel and Janelle might be nominated - if not those two then two of that alliance possibly Howie.  Kaysar is furious.  James tells Ivette that he knows they are trying to backdoor him because they know he is too strong on the POV.

7:15pm  Looks like the Nominations are underway.

6:55pm  HGs are on an outside lockdown while Jennifer prepares nominations....

5:12pm Sounds like at least another hour until nominations.

5:05pm  Hgs are locked down outside - but Jennifer is with them I think - so no nominations yet....

4:45pm Jennifer is being VERY evasive on who she will nominate - she would not even tell April when they were alone (April said, 'its Janelle and Rachel right?'  Jennifer would not reply).  April did the, "Please put my key in first!!"  thing - yeesh - how annoying!!!

4:10pm.....   oh god..... it has started again.....   the camp-out in the HoH room and the other group downstairs.  Ivette is still slightly rooting for James - and Jennifer mentions again that it was Janelle and Rachels idea to possibly vote Ivette out.  I need to SEE THE TAPES!!!  Who broke that discussion?  My reccolection was that April was pissed off at Ivette so the others broached the topic - but April certainly was receptive.  Oh we are so hypocritical (probably I am too - sorry 'friendship alliance' fans).

pet peeves...

• April says "ABSOLUTLY" ---   ALL THE TIME!!!
• Ivette says "Do you understand what I'm saying" and "Do you know what I mean?"  ALL THE TIME!!!

3:45pm  Jennifer is not even confiding in her team exactly who she is going to nominate - but chances are they have very little to worry about.  Jennifer also said earlier she likes Howie and that she had wished he was in their alliance....  so that leaves Janelle, Rachel, Kaysar and James.  I would THINK she would spare Kaysar and if she wants to get James out like she said - then she would nominate Rachel and Janelle.  If she nominates Kaysar she will be soooo hated by America - even if she justifies it by saying he just came back.

3:30pm  Jennifer is not going to 'meet' with the Hgs before the nominations - Kaysar will be 'shocked' and find out what she has in mind when she makes the noms.  I am pretty sure she will nominate Rachel and Janelle (expecting someone to win the POV and then put up James).

1:45pm Some Hgs moving about - James was earlier - I see Ivette I think now - but nothing worth noting more than that.

11:45pm  The house is sleeping.....  But before they went ot sleep April, Ivette and Jennifer discussing the deals that were made or offerred.  Jen says that she agreed to things but will not reveal what they were until she has the whole group together.  Here is a quote from jen, "I'm F**in HoH and you're and idiot for giving it to me."  Jennifer says she promised Kaysar the world in the "phone booth" and she doesn't care if he is mad at her - she just wanted one more week in the HoH room because the other week was so much fun.  Jennifer did tell April and Ivette that she plans on getting James out this week - but sounds like she will not do it by using her own teamates as pawns - she will use two of the 'other' alliance.

9:30am  Jennifer just got into her HoH room.  So everyone said congrats and most are now going to bed.  James and Beau have been asleep most of the monring - Kaysar and Rachel and others are going to bed - Janelle went to sleep a while ago.  Most of Jennifer's alliance will be moving into the HoH room for the week.

8:30am  Jennifer talking to April - she says to her that she was cutting deals right and left during the competition  - now she has to decide if she wants to keep any of them.  She thinks she will be going out next week.

8:10am - Ok - there you have it - not going to try to capture all the talk now - Jennifer is HoH - they will be going to sleep soon - Nominations should be later tonight and there may or not be a food competition today.  CBS needs material for Saturday's show though.

8:00am  So in the aftermath - Kaysar has told Janelle and Howie that Jennifer swore on her life at least four times to put up Ivette and Beau (as pawns to get James out). 

7:45am  - Jennifer won - she is crying - Kaysar is telling her it is ok - there might have been a technicality.

7:40am  Kaysar told Jennifer he thought he might give it to her.....  but then nothing happened - they are still going.  No sign of quitting at all - 4 minutes until 14 hours according to Kaysar..

7:30am  No change.....  both still holding strong...  Kaysar says it is a win-win situation - Kaysar has said he will go after James - Jennifer wants a hug from Kaysar when it is over.  13 1/2 hours.  Rachel is still stuck in the box with them even though she has been out for 3 hours.

6:40am  New rules. No bending or squating, no touching the glass except hand on the buzzer,and if your eyes are closed longer than three seconds you are consideredsleeping and you will be eliminated.  It is Down to Kaysar and Jennifer and has been for the last 2 hours.

6:30am  Jen and Kaysar are the only two still in it.  Jen really wants it bad and has cried and said she will even leave next week to get HoH this week.  12+ hours now...  updating as I can.

5:30am....  Still going on... Jennifer and Kaysar are the last two....  I will post the order and additional details in a bit....

4:40am  Rachel apparently slipped and let go.  I don't think there were any boxes left..

4:30am James let go..... Maggie as well - James got Pizza Maggie - Rotten Eggs

4:15am Ivette is out - Ivette won an Air Horn (??)

2:40am  BB makes them choose one hand to use from here on out...

2:25am - April eliminated - opened a box and won $3,000

1:03am Janelle is eliminated - not sure exactly why (Dancing?).... Janelle picks the red box and it is the plasma TV - a DVD player and perhaps a movie rental membership.

1am - ok - I give up - I will check in in the morning - BB will eventually make rules like no 'squatting' but I have to be up in the morning -  I will catch this area up then.  Only Beau and Howie can't win HoH at this point.

12:49am  Beau is stuck in the box - drinking - Howie has had 3 beers at least - and no one else is getting off their button.  James says he is not going anywhere - Jennifer says she doesn't want HoH but is afraid she will be put up.....  no one is letting go.  I am about to give up and go to bed myself....

12:17am Beau's knee touched the ground - he is eliminated.  Beau opened the box that ended up haveing the Martini Bar.  Ivette whispered in Beau's ear - I think she told him that she thinks  Janelle did something 2 hours ago and wants them to examine the tapes.

12:05am  Howie announces 6 hours in the competition - he also says that the food restriction is over and there is lots of food in the storage room.  Some of the HGs are considering quitting now because they are hungry.  Howie brings out food to tempt the HGs - they say they can have it later.
