Advisory Panel Judging: Idea Submissions which are popular with Cardmembers based on interest and high Cardmember ratings, as determined by the Sponsor, will be reviewed by the Sponsor to determine if the Project Ideas are achievable. The Sponsor's decisions will be final. Project Ideas that are deemed achievable will then be rated by Advisory Panel Judges in each category based on the following equally weighted criteria:

(1) Innovative

(2) Achievable

(3) Broad, Positive Impact

Round One Voting Period: (12:00 AM EST on July 3, 2007 through 11:59 PM EST on July 15, 2007): Cardmembers can vote for their favorite Project Idea among the 50 semi-finalists.
