You can still vote, and indeed should still vote, in the poll: http://community.livejournal.com/poptimists/485388.html - don't be swayed by my reviews.

And while you're at it go and do the year-end one too: http://community.livejournal.com/poptimists/490362.html

There's another Pop Open ready to roll tomorrow, and I'll announce the results of this one. It's fair to say this will not "all be over by Christmas", specially as I'm still waiting on a few songs.

Girls Aloud have just released the theme tune to the new St Trinian's film - and it's as good as anything on their own album

(This is just a fanmade video by the way)

The lyrics in particular are great fun - and are as much a manifesto for Girls Aloud as being about the film, and the production is one of their punkiest yet.
