Wow, nice long article! a full package, a triple threat ingredients to be superstar. She can sing, dance & act or more... a Megastar perhaps with that kind of talent, a humble down to earth personality, graceful, regalness and a drop dead gorgeous beauty to boot and we Americans witness all of it. I will not be suprise if theres a Hollywood movie in a near future. Go KJ!

Gee, even my pc doesn't agree with the result...can't post last night and the worst I didn't see the show last night. My connection is having problem, grrrrrr!
I'll bet the International fan votes along with the US votes is not enought to offset the popularity to win KJ. Hard to beat the Packer Nation for sure! cuz every football player reach the semi, they'll always win, but the main thing is KJ is the winner in every angle especially the exposure to US mainstream.
A lot of comments from blogs forum said "who is she?", "hmmnn another super model from eastern europe!", "never heard, the first to be eliminated!" and so on ...from the very beginning she beat all the odds week by week, a totally unknown to America's Sweetheart.
A short ride it is but its so amazing, bow to you Katherine The Great Of Wales...back to never watch this DWTS again, lol! ;D

Applause filled the room Monday around midnight when the Pine-Richland School Board voted 5-4 to adopt a $66.8 million proposed final 2012-13 budget that preserves 9.5 teaching positions in music and other areas. However, it will take a 4.308 percent tax increase and the elimination of 5.5 physical education teaching positions to make the budget balance. The proposed budget will now be available for public review—the final vote for adoption of a budget and the setting of the millage rate is June 25. About 200-plus people filled Pine-Richland High School's auditorium Monday night to urge the board not to cut programs in music, art, family consumer science, elementary/advanced language arts, and physical education. Speakers included 12-year-old singing star Jackie Evancho and her father, Mike Evancho, who stressed the importance of physical education, music and the arts. Another local celebrity who addressed the board was NewsRadio 1020 KDKA's Larry Richert of Pine Township. He urged the board not to cut the physical education program, as he referred to a Newsweek article about obesity in children. Less than a week ago, the board's finance committee recommended a budget that called for a 3.2 percent tax increase and cuts that included 15 teaching positions. Treasurer Dennis Sundo, who chairs the finance committee, recommended restoring the $480,752 in cuts that affect music, art, family consumer science, and elementary/advanced language arts instruction. Voting in favor of the budget were Sundo, Katie Shogan, Laura Ohlund, Virginia Goebel, and Kevin Nigh. Voting against were President Stephen Hawbaker, Vice President Jeffrey Banyas, Peter Lyons and Therese Dawson. In a marathon meeting that ended at 12:35 a.m., the school board voted for a budget that has expenditures of $66,849,169 and total revenues of $66,376,549 and a fund balance utilization of $472,619. The proposed 4.308 percent tax increase would bring the millage rate to 22.8522. "Pine-Richland School District is trying to find a way to reduce expenditures with the least impact to students," Communications Director Rachel Hathhorn wrote in a statement released at the end of the meeting. "Pine-Richland is experiencing what many districts have been experiencing nationwide for several years. While we’ve trimmed our budget over the past few years, we’ve been fortunate not to have to cut teaching positions up to this point," Hathhorn continued. "We will continue providing a strong academic program for our students." link---> pine-richland.patch.com/articles/pr-school-board-votes-5-4-to-restore-music-and-other-programs-to-proposed-budget?ncid=newsltuspatc00000001#photo-10018807

PINE TOWNSHIP (KDKA) – A local community spoke out against proposed cuts within their school district.
At a school board meeting in the Pine-Richland School District, the public spoke out against proposed cuts to physical education, arts and music programs.Jackie Evancho, a former student who shot to fame after singing on “America’s Got Talent,” urged the school board not to make the cuts.
“My little sister is 8 years old and she will be coming here soon, in two years, and she is very looking forward to be taking these classes in music, art and gym,” she said. “She also wants to become a big star and to live her dream, but that can’t be possible if all of this is being cut away from the enjoyment that we have.”
People also stood against teacher furloughs.
“Young, ambitious teachers are the last resource that any school should cut from their budget,” a man said.
“Please be smart with our money and please don’t make the changes,” urged William, a young student.
The district released a statement: “Pine-Richland School District is trying to find a way to reduce expenditures in the least impactful way. Pine-Richland is experiencing what many districts have been experiencing nationwide for several years.
“While we’ve trimmed our budge over the past few years, we’ve been fortunate not to have to cut teaching positions up to this point. We will continue providing a strong academic program for our students.”
The board was expected to vote Monday night.
