Postgame is no holiday for Cardinals' Matt Holliday...

'It's tough to swallow,' the left fielder says of his error that gave the Dodgers an opening in the ninth inning.
Not the Reggie Jackson or Joe Carter kind.The Bill Buckner kind.
With the bases empty and two out in the ninth inning Thursday evening at Dodger Stadium, all Holliday had to do was catch James Loney's sinking liner and the St. Louis Cardinals would beat the Dodgers to tie the National League division series at one game apiece.
"I had it," the Cardinals' left fielder said of a ball hit directly at him. "I was coming in to get it and then all of a sudden I couldn't see it."
Holliday lost the ball in the lights. He tried to adjust his glove at the last second, but the ball smacked him in the stomach for an error that triggered the Dodgers' stunning 3-2 come-from-behind victory in Game 2.
It was a mistake that felt like a blow to the gut of an entire franchise after the Cardinals fell into a two-games-to-none hole in the best-of-five series.

Despite loss, Sox aren't panicking Boston confident Beckett, offense will prevail in Game 2
ANAHEIM -- Red Sox outfielder Jason Bay needed few words to sum up the Red Sox's performance in Game 1 on Thursday night.
"Four singles and three errors aren't going to win many games," Bay said. "We need more offense."
Bay spoke in the Red Sox's clubhouse after Angels pitchers John Lackey and Darren Oliver combined on a four-hit shutout and a 5-0 victory over the Red Sox in Game 1 of the American League Division Series. It's the first time Boston was shutout in a playoff game since Game 2 of the 1995 ALDS against Orel Hershiser and the Indians. That ended a streak of 69 consecutive playoff games in which the Red Sox had scored.
The Red Sox go into Game 2 on Friday night with the mission of getting more runners on base, do something -- anything -- to manufacture some runs and trust in starter Josh Beckett.

'The Office' wedding: Jim and Pam get married!

You've watched. You've waited. You've gotten "PB&J 4ever" tattooed in a heart on your ankle. And tonight's wedding on "The Office" is the culmination of your years of patience. Your years of wishing Michael would accidentally knock Roy into the baler. Your years of wanting to run up to the reception desk and bonk Jim and Pam's heads together until they realized they belong together. And it's funny, and sweet, and awkward, and pretty much perfect. Thank god.
Unfortunately for Michael, he never gets to use the CD: he can't get a room at the hotel, or scam Dwight into sharing with him. And I can see why, since apparently Dwight is some sort of chick magnet in Niagara Falls. Attention, ladies of the wedding party: Not all guys wearing howling wolf t-shirts are Bret from "Flight of the Conchords."
"Four years ago, I was just a guy who had a crush on a girl who had a boyfriend. And I had to do the hardest thing I've ever had to do, which was to wait. And don't get me wrong, I flirted with her...I just had little moments with a girl who saw me as a friend. And a lot of people told me I was crazy to wait this long for a date with a girl who I worked with, but I think that even then I knew that I was waiting for my wife."

Quakes' road winless streak ends in DC San Jose gets first away victory in 20 matches

The San Jose Earthquakes got their first road victory of the season and first in their last 20 matches with a 2-1 comeback win Sunday afternoon against D.C. United at RFK Stadium. The Quakes' last road win was a 2-0 win at Columbus on June 7, 2008.
"It's a long time coming," said Earthquakes head coach Frank Yallop. "We've been very close in a lot of the games this year away from home but have not quite got it done. I'm really proud in that we haven't lost faith in the way we can play away home and to see the game out against a D.C. side that was pushing forward and had a couple of chances, I thought our guys really stuck to the task." Stoppage-time penalty kicks by Conor Casey allowed Colorado to escape with a 1-1 draws in the Quakes' last two matches, including last Wednesday in Colorado. Though United pressed forward late with everything and everyone they had, the Quakes held firm and perilously locked down the win.

Halloween costumes risque

Not since the third grade have I paid this much attention to what I was to wear on Halloween. I recall those elementary days where I strutted around as a witch, a genie, and a militant army girl with a sawed-off plastic machine gun. Ah, those innocent years. Now, being a college student, I have picked up on the tradition of dressing up once again. But when I look around come Halloween night, I don’t expect to see the same sort of costumes as I did when I was poking my fake gun at people. I expect to wonder how they all stay warm in their choice of wear.
Looking online for costume ideas, I couldn’t help but feel like I accidentally walked into the dim-lit “adults only” room at the back of the video store. Descriptions like, “Major Trouble Sexy Army Babe reporting for duty!” next to a model donning what looks like a camouflaged leaf are a far cry from the witch costume in first grade.

Former Miss California USA Carrie Prejean models skimpy Halloween costumes online

Here's a Halloween costume that's certain to scare away the competition.
The former pageant queen became the center of much controversy for answer to a same-sex marriage question during the Miss USA 2009 pageant in April. After facing a slew of criticism for her comment, Prejean, who did not win the national title, was later stripped of her Miss California crown when a photograph of her partially nude was released...

Vampire Diaries Episode 5

Meanwhile, Damon is still locked in the basement, weakened on verbane. Stephan's plan is to keep him entrapped for 50 years in the hopes of "reeducating" him. The idea is to get him to stop taking human lives and threatening to expose the brothers as vampires. Damon, however, still has enough strength to attack nephew Zack through the barred window, who is saved by Stephan in the nick of time. Damon's next trick is to use his mind power over Caroline and his creepy black bird to try and get her to come to his aid. Entranced, she goes to the mansion and finds Damon in his dungeon. Just as he's convincing her to open the door (and thus, to drink her blood, in order to regain his strength, now that the verbane has passed out of her system), Zach rushes in and implores her to run. Damon snaps Zach's neck and chases after Caroline, who luckily makes it out safely into the sun. Because Stephan snatched Damon's protective ring, the sun burns his skin and prevents him from pursuing her.

Packers vs. Vikings: A tear and wear rivalry
The idea was simple: wear a Favre jersey during Monday night's Packers-Vikings game and drink free if you wear it - or tear it.
Alan Tolzmann, co-owner of Arena Sports Bar & Night Club in La Crosse, Wis., said the idea was inspired by an Eau Claire, Wis., bar where the plan was to ceremonially burn a Favre jersey during the game.
"We wanted to do something like that," Tolzmann said, "but we didn't want the fire department down here."
Arena's owners came up with an idea fueled by the intense rivalry between the NFL football teams:
Vikings fans could wear a Favre jersey and drink free during the first quarter.

US funds dry up for Iran rights watchdog Obama White House less confrontational

Without additional funding, the Iran Human Rights Documentation Center will shut down in May when its funding runs out, said Rene Redman, the group’s executive director. . .
WASHINGTON - For the past five years, researchers in a modest office overlooking the New Haven green have carefully documented cases of assassination and torture of democracy activists in Iran. With more than $3 million in grants from the US State Department, they have pored over thousands of documents and Persian-language press reports and interviewed scores of witnesses and survivors to build dossiers on those they say are Iran’s most infamous human-rights abusers.
But just as the Iran Human Rights Documentation Center was ramping up to investigate abuses of protesters after this summer’s disputed presidential election, the group received word that - for the first time since it was formed - its federal funding request had been denied.
“If there is one time that I expected to get funding, this was it,’’ said Rene Redman, the group’s executive director, who had asked for $2.7 million in funding for the next two years. “I was sur prised, because the world was watching human rights violations right there on television.’’
Many see the sudden, unexplained cutoff of funding as a shift by the Obama administration away from high-profile democracy promotion in Iran, which had become a signature issue for President Bush. But the timing has alarmed some on Capitol Hill.
“The Iran Human Rights Documentation Center is at the forefront of pioneering and vitally important work,’’ said Senator Joe Lieberman, a Connecticut independent, in a statement yesterday. “It is disturbing that the State Department would cut off funding at precisely the moment when these brave investigations are needed most.’’

Halderman, the producer of 48 Hour Mystery, found Birkitt's diary, in which he learned about her sexual relationship with Letterman. That has creeper written all over it. Halderman copied pages from her diary and pieced together emails as part of the blackmail package.

Scarlett Johansson Says Her Marriage To Ryan Reynolds 'Kind Of Just Happened' In Glamour:

Sultry actress Scarlett Johansson may have played a home-wrecking 20-something in this year's "He's Just Not that Into You," but in real-life, she's busy setting up house and making music. Scarlett, who, let's face it, has been linked to some of Hollywood's most desirable leading men, including Justin Timberlake and Josh Hartnett, tied the knot early last year with actor Ryan Reynolds.
The actress, who was 23 at the time she walked down the aisle, opens up in Glamour's November issue, about the relationship.“I never really thought about getting married—it just kind of happened," she said. "You hope that a relationship makes you better, that you learn things about yourself. … I feel more confident to explore things within myself that I hadn’t thought about in the past.”
One thing, the "Lost in Translation" star is exploring is music. Scarlett combined forces with singer-songwriter Pete Yorn to release her album The Breakup this September. The idea apparently came about when Pete texted her suggesting they work on an album — this was before he actually knew whether or not she could sing (talk about a leap of faith!). She said yes, even though she thought the idea was weird at first, and to Pete's relief, he learned that she could indeed carry a tune.
While, it's easy to imagine a Hollywood starlet with a great husband and a soaring career as indefensible, Scarlett also told Glamour about some of her insecurities.
During her training for the upcoming "Iron Man 2," she battled rumors suggesting she had drastically lost about 14 pounds. “I could never lose 14 pounds.… I hate seeing these ridiculous articles where [tabloids] guess someone’s weight.… I can’t look at somebody who is 6 feet tall and 120 pounds and say, I’m going to get that body. That’s just never going to happen. You have to work with what you’ve got.” You tell em' Scarlett!
Scarlett, who starred in her first movie at age 10, also opened up about the anxiety she still feels before heading out on the red carpet. "I love to get ready for the red carpet," she says, "But being on it is very uncomfortable. It’s so freakish and weird. I get flop sweats, dry mouth, heart palpitations, allover panic!”
As confident and composed as she seems, it's endearing to know that even one of Hollywood's leading ladies gets a little nervous from time to time…and what's more, that she's willing to open up about.

Pierce stands and delivers
The Longest Yard. Burt Reynolds' convict team managed the needed three feet in a climactic battle scene against the Georgia prison guards. Adam Sandler and his fellow felons get the vital 36 inches in the remake 21 years later. Perhaps the Lions need some Hollywood film study to figure out how.
It can't hurt.
And speaking of distress, Lions quarterback Buck Pierce was in a world of it after Friday's nailing-biting 19-16 win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders before 31,948 fans at BC Place.
Clobbered, bloodied and throbbing with pain, the Blue Cross Knight put on one of the most courageous performances by a CFL quarterback since Matt Dunigan, the patron saint of concussed QBs, scrambled in the northern tundra.
Pierce threw for 343 yards with a wounded right wing, made a gutsy 20-yard run late in the game into the maw of a punishing Roughrider defence, then took the Lions on a winning 55-yard drive that Sean Whyte finished off with a winning 33-yard field goal with 0:05 left.
The win moved the Lions' record to 6-7 and puts them squarely back in the hunt for a playoff berth in the West Division. And it was vital, too, since B.C. now goes on the road for three games in successive weeks against West rivals. The defeat dropped the Riders to 7-6.
Whyte's field goal came after Saskatchewan quarterback Darian Durant took the Roughriders on an 85-yard touchdown drive, finished off by a 24-yard touchdown pass to Andy Fantuz, who beat Barron Miles as the veteran safety leapt in an attempt to make his second interception of the game.
With Ricky Foley and Anton McKenzie draped all over him, Durant then found Gerran Walker in the end zone for a two-point convert to tie the game at 16-16 with 2:33 left.
But the evening's heroics truly belonged to Pierce, who silenced his critics with 29 completions on 43 attempts, though not one of them produced a touchdown.
Still, it was a game that could be a career-maker for Pierce, who smashed his right hand against the helmet of Saskatchewan end John Chick in the first half but kept on ticking. Treated like a pinball in an arcade game, Pierce was continually savaged and driven to the turf while Saskatchewan's defence took advantage of the swinging door that was Damane Duckett. The NFL journeyman was making his first start at right tackle in place of the injured Jason Jimenez, and Pierce paid for it.
Yet for all his noble work, Pierce wasn't the instigator of the Lions' only touchdown, a 38-yard pass from backup quarterback Travis Lulay to Paris Jackson after the Lions caught the Roughriders sleeping on a second-down, short yardage play in the third quarter. Jackson finished with eight catches for 114 yards, but wasn't around at the finish after suffering an injury to his knee (ACL). Jackson will be assessed today by the Lions' medical staff.
As he hobbles in to the infirmary, Jackson will probably see Pierce soaking in cold tub in an attempt to ease the swelling to practically every part of his body.
While he was in great pain, so were Lions fans, after watching their team twice scrimmage at the Saskatchewan one-yard line in the first half, only to butt their heads against a green wall.
And what should have been a romp, quickly turned into a protracted, nervous slog.
After Pierce took his team smartly downfield on nine plays to start the game, the Lions were stopped on third down at the Saskatchewan one when Martell Mallett ran smack into linebacker Rey Williams, who outweighs the running back by more than 30 pounds.
In the second quarter, an interference call against Omarr Morgan on Geroy Simon again placed the ball at the Saskatchewan one. But first Lulay, on a keeper, and then Mallett, dropped in his tracks as Marcus Adams invaded the backfield, forced the Lions to settle for a 10-yard Whyte field goal.
Earlier, Whyte skunked his first of two misses in the first half when his 31-yard attempt hit the right goal post after a 60-yard completion from Pierce to Simon, the quarterback's longest completion this season. Pierce was drilled by Marcus Adams as he uncorked the throw, rattling his already painful ribs.
Adams, Chick, Tad Kornegay ... the 'Riders all got their licks in at Pierce's expense.
Still, in the end, it was the lion-hearted quarterback's amazing fortitude that ultimately licked Saskatchewan.

Bobcats outlast Wildcats

Montana State's defense stopped the Wildcats on 4th-and-goal from 1 with 20 seconds left as the Bobcats prevailed 26-21 here Saturday in a Big Sky Conference battle of nationally ranked teams.
Out of shotgun formation, star quarterback Cameron Higgins faked to halfback Trevyn Smith, who was hit immediately by MSU's Chase Gazzerro, and pitched to Bo Bolen. A host of Bobcats quickly smothered Bolen for a four-yard loss as 25th-ranked Montana State upset the 11th-ranked Wildcats.
"It was a fabulous, fabulous goal-line stand," said Montana State head coach Rob Ash. "That's one of the great moments in my coaching career, personally, and for those kids for sure."
This is Ash's third season at MSU and 30th overall as a college head coach. His Bobcats on Saturday yielded 469 total yards, but came up huge when it counted most.
"Weber State's got a great offense. I'm really impressed with those guys, all of them," Ash said. "They're great players, and to hold them like we did, especially at the end, is a fabulous testimony to our players.
Sophomore halfback C.J. Palmer scored two touchdowns, including a go-ahead score on a 6-yard run early in the fourth quarter, as the Bobcats improved to 2-0 in Big Sky play and 3-1 overall.
Senior halfback Aaron Mason ran for 138 yards and two touchdowns, while Palmer finished with 45 yards and a pair of touchdowns as MSU won its six straight road game at Weber. The Bobcats prevailed although they were outgained 469-360.
"We've got an unbelievably happy group of guys," said Ash moments after the final gun sounded. "They're so excited and they deserve it. Judging by their celebration I think we turned a corner today."
Weber State took a 21-20 lead late in the third quarter on a 16-yard touchdown pass from Higgins to Mike Phillips. The pair hooked up earlier on a 68-yard scoring play that put Weber State up 15-14 late in the second quarter.But Montana State's offense answered the call throughout the second half. With Weber leading 20-15, Mason scored on a one-yard run to cap MSU's first drive of the third quarter and give the Bobcats a 20-15 advantage.
After Weber went back in front, the Bobcats marched 80 yards and CJ Palmer's six-yard run gave the Bobcats the lead for keeps.
"The biggest concern at halftime was that our defense would wear out," said Ash, whose team was outgained 276-153 in the first two quarters. "That long drive we had in the third quarter was a big key. It gave our defense time to get rejuvenated, just a fabulous drive that established the second half to our advantage."
Montana State's resourceful defense played a huge part in the win, forcing four Wildcat turnovers. The first set up the team's first score as linebacker Chase Gazzerro, who scored on an interception return in MSU's 2007 win at Weber State, picked off a Higgins pass and returned it to the Wildcat 3.
Mason scored three plays later. The Bobcats also forced a WSU fumble inside the the MSU 5-yard line and blocked a field goal to thwart scoring opportunities.
The Bobcats also made their share of mistakes.
Senior quarterback Mark Iddins was intercepted on his first pass of the day and later was sacked for a safety. But he persevered to pass for 150 yards on 11-for-17 accuracy.
"I just had to let it go," Iddins said. "The team was behind me. You never want to start a game that way but it's how you recover that matters. I felt I bounced back and played well after that.
"They play a lot of man coverage and against a team like that you're going to have ups and downs," Iddins added. "We had a lot of big plays and we stuttered at times. We weren't smooth all the way through but our defense played great and we found a way to win."
Higgins passed for 337 yards and two touchdowns, but he was intercepted three times. Smith rushed for 148 yards and moved into third place on the Big Sky's all-time rushing list with 4,553 yards, but he was held without a touchdown.
In spite of Weber State's gaudy statistics, MSU players and coaches credited the Bobcat defense for the victory.
"The defense inspired us," said receiver Elvis Akpla. "Those defensive guys never give up."
Ash called the effort "absolutely fantastic."
"That is a competitive group of guys; they really believe they're going to get it done," Ash said. "It's a never-say-die group ... To do what we did in the fourth quarter after that long day and all those plays shows unbelievable desire on their part."
With two road victories, the Bobcats are in solid position to contend for the Big Sky championship.
"We feel we proved we're an elite team in this conference and in the country," said Iddins. "We feel like we can play with anybody and I think we proved it today."
Montana State returns home to Bobcat Stadium next week to take on Northern Arizona.

Eight Man Tag On Smackdown Was Well Worth Watching

Smackdown was just a hopping last night. There was a celebration because it was the tenth anniversary of the show.
They were tributes to the late Eddie Guerrero, old clippings from shows gone by, and a party in the back and everyone was there from RAW, ECW, Smackdown. Even Vickie Guerrero was there, but that's another story.
The main event was an eight man tag team match. One team was Randy Orton, Legacy, and C M Punk. The opposing team consisted of WWE Champion John Cena, DX, and The Undertaker.
From the start of the bell, the match was action packed. Body slams, punches, kicks, slaps, a near fatal Attitude Adjuster, RKO'S and a single Tombstone.
This was no ordinary match. Not by a long shot. In this mix, we have a rivalry going on between Orton and Cena, another with Legacy and DX, and the big one, Undertaker and C M Punk.
It was a seesaw match at first, and then Legacy became more aggressive and were putting the smackdown on DX, but no need to fear, the champ was there.
Cena was aggressive as well. DX didn't take the bull for long. The game gave out some punishment. Watching Legacy made me think of how much they are like Orton.
As the match continued, it was obvious that all eight men had a score to settle and they were going to do it even if they had to break all the rules.
All four superstars ended up in the ring at the same time. The dead man went after his rival, C M Punk but Punk quickly got out of dodge. He didn't want no part of him.
Legacy by this time were out of the match, which left just the Viper and he was surrounded by all four of his opponents. I don't know where he thought he was going, because right behind him was the Undertaker. The dead man picked up Orton and gave him the Tombstone.
Lights out for Orton. The team of Cena, DX and Taker seemed more determined after their big win. Determined to beat their opponents once and for all.
All eight men will be in the PPV Event, Hell In A Cell on Oct. 4 in separate matches. DX vs Legacy, Cena vs Orton, Undertaker vs Punk. This match was a warm up to the PPV Event.
Can't wait to watch these matches. This is Orton's last rematch to get the belt from Cena. And DX says that this rivalry must and will end at Hell In A Cell. As for Taker and Punk, I guess the dead man should win especially since his finishing move, the Hells Gate, is no longer banned.

Quentin Tarantino Promises Kill Bill Vol. 3 Sometime Soon?

Can we trust Quentin Tarantino again? I mean, last year, at the Cannes Film Festival, he announced on a French talk show that he would be back the next year (as in this year) with Inglourious Basterds, a film which he had been talking about making for 10 years. And, as we all know, that actually happened (believe it or not), and he did show up at Cannes with Inglourious Basterds. Tarantino most recently appeared on an Italian TV show (via BadTaste.it) and made a promise just like that, but this time for Kill Bill Vol. 3. "The Bride will fight again," he revealed. When first asked if he'd do Kill Bill 3, his answer was an ecstatic "Yes!"
Tarantino also gave a "maybe" to a Basterds prequel, even though it's doing incredibly well at the box office, and a "no, it'll never happen" to a Pulp Fiction sequel. This isn't the first time we've heard of Kill Bill Vol. 3. The last I remember, Tarantino wanted to tell the story of Vernita Green's (Vivica A. Fox's character) daughter and how she grows up and gets revenge on Beatrix. I even remember hearing that it could become an entire anime instead of live-action, but I doubt that. It sounds Tarantino may actually be considering making Kill Bill 3 as his next movie following Basterds. Is that what you'd like to see him do next?
I'm sure with this news now out there, we'll be hearing updates from people like Uma Thurman and Michael Madsen and maybe Tarantino himself, if anyone can catch up with him on the record. It's sad to know that Bill himself, David Carradine, will no longer be around to star in the sequel. I hope Tarantino has some plans that don't necessarily involve Bill returning in a big way, because Carradine really was perfectly cast.

Lady Gaga Saturday Night Live

This must be a dream performance before a planned solo tour by Lady Gaga. She is set to embark on her solo tour Fame Kills.
She has announced to embark on a solo tour following organizers refused to included Kanye West in the show.
Meanwhile Despite all the controversy surrounding Lady Gaga being hermaphrodite, there is no solid proof to back the argument. And I am sure there wouldn’t be any proof coming as she is not hermaphrodite.
The rumor, which had been simmering for months, burst out big-time this past week after a YouTube video was posted showing a little "something extra" peeking out from under her miniskirt during a June 2009 performance in Glastonbury, England.
The quality of the video is too poor to tell precisely what that something is.
The video was soon followed by a quote attributed to the singer in which, supposedly, she proudly declared her intersexuality.
The quote attributed to her says, "It's not something that I'm ashamed of, just isn't something that I go around telling everyone. Yes. I have both male and female genitalia, but I consider myself a female. It's just a little bit of a penis and really doesn't interfere much with my life."
Lady Gaga's manager dismissed both the rumor and the quote in a terse statement to ABC News, to wit: "This is completely ridiculous."
Hermaphrodite is a term used for someone who has both male and female genitals. It is very common in some animal species. But rare among humans.
The androgynous vamp has promoted speculation that she was born with male and female genitals after video and photo images emerged this week revealing a bulge in her nether-regions.

2012: Over the Top, Even for an Apocalypse Film?

From the exclusive clip, which aired tonight on MSNBC during “Countdown with Keith Olbermann,” it looks like the creative team went a bit overboard with both the extent of the damage the world undergoes and with our protagonist’s ability to safely navigate out of harm’s way.
Jackson Curtis (John Cusack) exhibits superhuman luck and survival skills, dodging and driving faster than the faultline that forms throughout Los Angeles.
The 2012 Mayan prophecy mystery offers fertile ground for cinematic exploration of a possible apocalyptic future. But what makes good films in the sci-fi action genre work is that the chain of events are at least marginally based in science. From the clip, “2012″ appears too fantastical, too much for an apocalypse film. It will be interesting to see how writer/director Roland Emmerich manages to keep viewers engaged when the action sequences stretch believability beyond what even a rabid sci-fi action fan is willing to entertain.
