This auction is for various Winelle memorbilia. All of the items are from Will and signed by him. I am also including a picture of Will handing me a rose that will be autographed by me. This package is priceless. The only reason I am getting rid of it is to help my little brother out. Since it is for a good cause I am sure Will won't mind. Over the course of our friendship Will gave me several things. I am including most of it because my current boyfriend will flip out if he finds any of it. It is also time for me to get rid of this hurtful Winelle stuff. Here is what is included Card that Will gave to me in December. It is very cute. I am not posting pictures of it because it could be copied and shared with others. The card is for the winner of the auction to see and anyone else of their choosing. The entire card is written in and it is very nice. A signed Winelle picture A mystery BONUS bag containing a special Winelle gift that you will love. It is a little "Winelle dirt' that you have been waiting for All of the stuff is priceless. If you are a fan of Winelle or even a hater you will love it! Because it is the last of Winelle you will ever see. :) This stuff is some of the rarest Big Brother items out there. Happy Bidding! And yes I always ship to Canada!

The biggest twist, however, is a game element called "America's Player." In a nutshell, that contestant will have the chance to win extra sums of money-- but only if they carry out certain actions mandated by viewers via internet or text message voting. Chosen player might be asked to vote somebody out of the house or something more personal, such as flirting with another player. Eye is hoping the twist will give viewers more of a stake in the outcome of the game, in the same way auds who watch "American Idol" get to shape that competition.

Theme for this year's "Brother" house is "Alice in Wonderland," with a number of eclectic touches throughout the pad (think really big beds and tiny chairs). Via

Reality star, Toni Ferrari, a former roommate and ex-friend of HG Diane, apparently called several all-stars before the show started and revealed a secret preshow alliance. Click here to read the details.

Entertainment Weekly does a rundown of each HG and his/her odds of winning. They have Dr. Will at 10 to 1 odds, but I believe Will is going to take the whole thing to the end and win it (again).

Talk in the house is that the other HG's do not believe Will would have the jury votes needed to win should he make the final two. I have heard various HG's on the feeds speaking as if Will cannot win f2 no matter what. They're reasoning is that nobody would vote for a winner to win a second time and nobody would give the money to Will since he's already very wealthy... They are mistaken on both counts however. First, the jury tends to vote for the person with better game play (the exception being Danielle's second place finish to Lisa in season three). Second, the jury does not consider how much a person in the f2 "needs" the money when deliberating. Will's competitors, therefore, are making a terrible misjudgment if they believe they can take Will to the end (or let Will take them to the end) and win against him. 

My prediction: If Will can make it to week seven, he is going to win BB All-Stars. And if the other HG's allow him to make it that far in the game, he probably deserves to win.

And the HOH's are Jase and Janelle. No surprise there after the "leak" of the audio feeds on July 4th. They did reveal the nominees, and they are Alison and Danielle!!

For anyone who got the live feeds early, there is audio. You can hear all the houseguests talking...

I've posted a list of people I heard talking in the house in the forum. If you don't want to know who has made it into the house, don't click the link!

AAAHHHH...IT'S OVER...(for Marsalis?)

So the voting ended. I'm glad. It's in the hands of fate now. Or the cosmos. Or God. It's been a week. Such a week. Long. Tedious. Exhilarating. Hard. Exhausting. I feel like I spent more time on the net than ever. Did I campaign hard enough? Did I vote for myself enough? I resisted the lure of the auto-voter. On a personal level, I thought that was cheating. Don't get me wrong, I'm flattered some of my fans did it for me but is that what CBS/Shapiro Groedner really had in mind? And watching some of my fellow contenders actively beg for their use? Gross. Yeah, I went out there and did some press, a few TV spots, a bunch of interviews and chats. Heck I even made a t-shirt. But @ the end of the day if a computer can send out 50 bijillion votes a minute should I have even bothered? [via]
