San Francisco Giants Are World Champions Again!!!
And now, this storied franchise, born in New York, packed and moved to California in 1958, has its seventh World Series title, and second since they upended the Texas Rangers in five games in 2010.
It was a cagey final confrontation, the runs appearing in sporadic bursts, all momentum undercut with swift counterpunching. The Giants jumped ahead in the second inning, but were leapfrogged by the Tigers in the third. The Giants barreled in front again during the sixth, but the Tigers tied them up in the bottom of the frame.
The starting pitchers, the Giants’ Matt Cain and the Tigers’ Max Scherzer, battled a chilly, windy night and stood their ground, firing with what seemed to be less than their best. They left the game at an impasse, but after the mound was bequeathed to the bullpens, the relief pitchers refused to bend either, sending the game into extra innings.
Ryan Theriot singled off Phil Coke to start the 10th inning, and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt. One out later, Marco Scutaro, who had cooled this series after lighting up the N.L. Championship Series, punched a single into center field. The crowd gasped.
Theriot raced around third and raised his arm in triumph as he slid safely across home plate. In the dugout, his teammates pummeled his helmet with their fists. The title felt within their grasp.
In the bottom of the inning, Sergio Romo, the Giants’ bearded and oft-animated closer, struck out the side, setting down triple crown winner Miguel Cabrera to seal a lasting image of the powerful Tigers’ sudden futility at the plate. Cabrera, a favorite for the American League Most Valuable Player award, struck out looking at an 89-mile-per-hour fastball, right down the middle of the plate. 
Romo clenched his fists and pumped them in front of his chest. Soon, his teammates engulfed him.
For this must-win game, the Tigers handed the ball to Scherzer, who lasted six and a third innings, allowing three runs, seven hits, and one walk, while recording eight strikeouts. The Giants’ runs were built off two previously dormant bats.
In the second inning, Brandon Belt, who was hitless during the first three games of the series, swiveled on an inside fastball and missed a home run by mere feet when the ball banged off the upper portion of the wall in right field. Belt scampered around the bases, settling for a triple, while Hunter Pence, who preceded him with a ground-rule double, scored easily.
In the sixth inning, Buster Posey, who entered Game 4 batting .196 during the postseason with two extra-base hits, walloped a 82-m.p.h. changeup from Scherzer, sending the ball hooking inside the left-field foul pole for a two-run homer.
The action injected life into the frigid environs. Players and fans alike donned layers to battle the wind and bluster. The announcement over the public address system of the game time temperature, 44 degrees, incited a lusty cheer from the crowd. Shortly thereafter, a light, steady rain fluttered diagonally from left field, dampening but not dispiriting the crowd.
These conditions seemed to help the Tigers in the third. Cabrera came up with one on and two outs, and lofted a low changeup from Cain into the air to right field. He seemed not to have squared it up perfectly, but the ball carried and carried before plopping into the second row of seats beyond the right-field wall. The Tigers went up, 2-1, as their fans, wrapped in scarves and hooded sweatshirts, bounced in their seats.
It was the first Tigers hit with a runner in scoring position since Game 1. It was the first time the Giants trailed a game since Game 4 of the championship series, and it broke a 20-inning scoreless streak by their pitchers.
After Posey’s home run in the sixth, Delmon Young retaliated for the Tigers in the bottom of the inning, lashing a hanging slider from Cain into the opposite-field seats for a line-drive, solo home run.
Cain, as he did throughout the playoff run, soldiered through while appearing to lack his best stuff. He fired 102 pitches over seven strenuous innings, giving up three runs, five hits, and two walks while striking out five.
He left the mound with the game, the season, still hanging in the balance. But his teammates did the rest.
Get Ready SANDY is coming!
From Washington to Boston, big cities and small towns Sunday buttoned up against the onslaught of a superstorm that could endanger 50 million people in the most heavily populated corridor in the nation, with forecasters warning that the New York area could get the worst of it -- an 11-foot wall of water.
"The time for preparing and talking is about over," Federal Emergency Management Administrator Craig Fugate said as Hurricane Sandy made its way up the Atlantic on a collision course with two other weather systems that could turn it into one of the most fearsome storms on record in the U.S. "People need to be acting now."
Forecasters said the hurricane could blow ashore Monday night or early Tuesday along the New Jersey coast, then cut across into Pennsylvania and travel up through New York State on Wednesday. It could wreak havoc all the way into the Great Lakes Region.
Airlines canceled more than 7,200 flights and Amtrak began suspending train service across the Northeast. New York, Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore moved to shut down their subways, buses and trains and said schools would be closed on Monday. Boston also called off school. And all non-essential government offices closed in the nation's capital.
Sandy, a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph as of Sunday evening, was blamed for 65 deaths in the Caribbean before it began churning up the Eastern Seaboard. As of 11 p.m., it was centered about 470 miles southeast of New York City, moving at 14 mph, with hurricane-force winds extending an incredible 175 miles from its center.
It was expected to hook left toward the Mid-Atlantic coast and come ashore late Monday or early Tuesday, most likely in New Jersey, colliding with a wintry storm moving in from the west and cold air streaming down from the Arctic.
Hurricane Sandy storm tracker and forecast maps Hurricane Sandy causes school closings, delays Forecasters said the combination could bring close to a foot of rain, a potentially lethal storm surge of 4 to 11 feet across much of the region, and punishing winds that could cause widespread power outages that last for days. The storm could also dump up to 2 feet of snow in Kentucky, North Carolina and West Virginia.
As rain from the leading edges of the monster hurricane began to fall over the Northeast, hundreds of thousands of people from Maryland to Connecticut were ordered to evacuate low-lying coastal areas Sunday, including 375,000 in lower Manhattan and other parts of New York City, 50,000 in Delaware and 30,000 in Atlantic City, N.J., where the city's 12 casinos were forced to shut down for only the fourth time ever.
"We were told to get the heck out. I was going to stay, but it's better to be safe than sorry," said Hugh Phillips, who was one of the first in line when a Red Cross shelter in Lewes, Del., opened at noon.
However, CBS News correspondent Chip Reid reports some, like Ocean City, Md., surfer Brian Dean, said they have decided to stay.
"We've got everything pretty well situated, bunkered down, generators, [we'll] hang out, ride it out. We rode out Irene last year, it wasn't that bad," he said.
"I think this one's going to do us in," said Mark Palazzolo, who boarded up his bait-and-tackle shop in Point Pleasant Beach, N.J., with the same wood he used in past storms, crossing out the names of Hurricanes Isaac and Irene and spray-painting "Sandy" next to them. "I got a call from a friend of mine from Florida last night who said, `Mark, get out! If it's not the storm, it'll be the aftermath. People are going to be fighting in the streets over gasoline and food."'
Authorities warned that the nation's biggest city could get hit with a surge of seawater that could swamp parts of lower Manhattan, flood subway tunnels and cripple the network of electrical and communications lines that are vital to the nation's financial center.
Louis Uccellini, environmental prediction chief for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told The Associated Press that given Sandy's east-to-west track into New Jersey, the worst of the storm surge could be just to the north, in New York City, on Long Island and in northern New Jersey.
Forecasters said that because of giant waves and high tides made worse by a full moon, the metropolitan area of about 20 million people could get hit with an 11-foot wall of water. CBS News correspondent Chip Reid reports from Ocean City, Md. that sea level could rise 8 feet above normal - enough to flood much of the city.
"This is the worst-case scenario," Uccellini said.
The Department of Defense says there are approximately 1,500 National Guard forces on state active duty supporting the governors of New York, Massachusetts, Virginia, New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut and Maryland. These forces are available to provide assistance to local first responders and FEMA. Additionally, more than 61,100 National Guard members are available to assist civilian authorities in potentially affected states in support of relief efforts.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg warned: "If you don't evacuate, you are not only endangering your life, you are also endangering the lives of the first responders who are going in to rescue you. This is a serious and dangerous storm."
New Jersey's famously blunt Gov. Chris Christie was less polite: "Don't be stupid. Get out."
New York called off school Monday for the city's 1.1 million students and announced it would suspend all train, bus and subway service Sunday night. More than 5 million riders a day depend on the transit system.
The New York Stock Exchange announced it will shut down its trading floor Monday but continue to trade electronically.
Officials also postponed Monday's reopening of the Statue of Liberty, which had been closed for a year for $30 million in renovations.
Obama warns Americans to take Hurricane Sandy seriously
In Washington, President Barack Obama promised the government would "respond big and respond fast" after the storm hits.
"My message to the governors as well as to the mayors is anything they need, we will be there, and we will cut through red tape. We are not going to get bogged down with a lot of rules," he said.
He also pleaded for neighborliness: "In times like this, one of the things that Americans do is we pull together and we help out one another And so, there may be elderly populations in your area. Check on your neighbor, check on your friend. Make sure that they are prepared. If we do, then we're going to get through this storm just fine."
San Francisco Giants Are World Champions Again!!!
With bristly winds swirling and a World Series championship on the line, the San Francisco Giants defeated the Detroit Tigers, 4-3, in 10 innings on Monday night in Game 4 to claim their second title in three years.
The game, played before an announced crowd of 42,152 at Comerica Park, provided a dose of intensity and intrigue to a series that proved something of an anticlimax to an otherwise stunning postseason run for the Giants. During their two previous series, San Francisco had to overcome huge deficits and unlikely odds to keep their season alive. In the World Series, they were cutthroat and businesslike, finishing off the Tigers in the minimum four games, the first World Series sweep since the Boston Red Sox defeated the St. Louis Cardinals in 2007.

Reverend Al Sharpton Says "Vote or Shut Up"!
On Tomorrow, (one week before the 2012 Presidential election) the fall issue of "Heed Magazine" will be available online and in Barnes & Noble stores nationwide.
In the new issue, the people’s pastor, Reverend Al Sharpton, talks healthcare, jobs, and what he believes a Romney/Ryan win would look like! The Reverend, a devout vegetarian, holds no bars and refuses to bite his tongue as he shares his unbiased thoughts on the current political climate in the USA. Touching on long time controversial issues like same-sex marriage and abortion, the Reverend asserts “The issue is not that you believe in same-sex marriage, the issue is that you believe you have the right to tell people what they can do. This is not whether you believe in women having abortions, the issue is do you feel you have the right to tell a woman what to do with her body?”
He goes on to say, “All of my career I’ve taken controversial stances. I’ve lived to see some people that were against me turn around. What I do is not for the faint that goes and looks for comfort. You have to stand up for what you believe in. I believe in that.”
The 58-year-old social justice activist, who himself was a candidate for the Democratic nomination back in 2004, tells it like it is in the latest issue of "Heed Magazine", offering his uncut perspective that will leave readers a little more informed, and a lot more confident in who they decide to vote into office!
His candidness, humor, and unapologetic knowledge of the political system, makes for a cover story that promises to be a winning election-season read.
Also featured in the issue are exclusive interviews with actor Brian White, Grammy nominated R&B singer Kenny Lattimore, Grammy Winning songwriter & Christian worship leader Israel Houghton, entrepreneur / 20's something heartthrob, Romeo Miller, and host of TV One’s newest hit show "Verses & Flow" actor, Omari Hardwick!

Texas Church Gives Political Advice: "Vote For The Mormon, Not The Muslim!"
A Texas church has put town of Leakey on the map, but not for anything good. The Church in the Valley located in the small 300-person town is making news today for its marquis message: “VOTE FOR THE MORMON, NOT THE MUSLIM! FOR THE CAPITALIST, NOT THE COMMUNIST!” The sign, created by the churches pastor, Ray Miller, is meant to display his conservative and passionate views on the upcoming presidential election. Outside of the church hangs a banner that further pledges Miller's allegiance to Mitt Romney, “Make a Stand. Christian Patriot Conservative Headquarters.”
Over his years as president, Barack Obama has been questioned about his religious affiliation. On numerous occasions he has declared himself a Christian, but to no avail, since Pastor Miller and others do not to believe him.
Texas, the home state of George W. Bush, is known for some of its residents' hatred for President Obama and Republican voter loyalty. However, Pastor Miller's display of freedom of speech, if further investigated, may have the church in hot water with the IRS. As the law states, tax-exempt organizations like churches aren't allowed to campaign for, or endorse, political candidates. The churches marquis is in clear violation, and in turn, may result in the church losing its tax-exempt status.
Pastor Miller has declined interviews with the local news.
Kerry Washington on the cover of JET Magazine!
Kery Washington Dignified. Yes, that’s the best word to describe Kerry Washington. Her movements. Her speech. Her demeanor. They all whisper: Respect me. We’re enthralled by their chants. Allured by her sense of purpose. Impressed by her poised control. And nowadays, we’re envious of her career.
The October 29 issue of JET magazine, on newsstands Monday, Oct. 22, 2012.
Just 10 years after her performance in the surprise hit, Save the Last Dance (which grossed $131 million), Washington, who played a teenage mother, has blossomed from stereotype into archetype. As the first Black female lead in a prime-time drama, Scandal, the 35-year-old isn’t simply collecting a check. She’s hip-checking barriers, wagging a finger at prejudices and inspiring female fans. Now that’s a cool 9-to-5.
“As women of all races, we are being taught to be strong, but for Black women it has never been a luxury to not be anything else but that,” she says. “To be able to go beyond the idea of just being strong but to also be a human being, now that’s an accomplishment. My character Olivia Pope gets to be complex, insecure, and to not be a love interest for once, but to have a love interest.”
Washington sat down with JETin the midst of filming her second season of ABC’s hit series. The program was inspired by the life of an actual crisis manager, Judy Smith, and was brought to the small screen by Hollywood’s baddest, brown-hued, golden child, Shonda Rhimes. Black women weaving tales, raising funds and starring in shows about ladies of color isn’t totally unheard of… but doing it for a prime-time network, now that’s cause for a round of applause.

Happy Halloween Nip Slip from Kris Jenner!
However, as is all too clear to see, Kris can't quite contain her curves in the strapless corset.
As she lifts her arm and holds up her cloak, she reveals a little more than she bargained for.
Not that Kris was worried.
She tweeted in response to commentators: 'Jeeeez what’s all the fuss about?!!! It’s just an innocent nip slip, happens to the best of us.'
A more cynical observer may even suggest there is no accident going on here at all... surely nothing the attention-grabbing Kardashians do is unplanned?
Khloe Kardashian tweeted the picture over the weekend, along with the charming caption: 'Hi nips. That's my mom.'Kim donned a similar version of the sexy outfit back in 2008 when she hosted the PAMAs Halloween Masquerade at Stone Rose in Los Angeles.And while managing an eye-catching display, Kim did at least manage to stay contained.
Dawn Richards’ Ex-Boyfriend, Q, Points the Finger, Says Dawn Cheated Too
It may seem like old news now, but former Day 26 member, Qwanell “Que” Mosley (24) is finally speaking about his breakup with singer/ex-Danity Kane member Dawn Richard (29). To give you a brief love-history, the two met on the final season of Diddy’s “Making The Band,” on MTV. In short, they’ve been d*mn near inseparable for five years–Que even proposed to Dawn via Twitter back in 2010.
Until earlier this year, it was unclear as to why the couple broke up. According to Dawn, Que cheated on her with multiple women, which she revealed in multiple interviews earlier this year. Que is finally giving his side of the story, and while he confirms that he did cheat, he says that Dawn wasn’t exactly innocent in the whole situation. Que told “Sister 2 Sister”:
“I did cheat on her. I did. I thought everything was good, and just randomly, I find out she was with someone else. It was kind of a confusing situation how we ended because I cheated on her, and we were together for a year [after that].”
Que also mentioned getting his music career back on track:
“I actually have a new single. It’s called ‘Money Bags.’ It’s dropping in November. I’m working on an album for 2013.”
Parents Sue Monster Energy Drink After Girl’s Death
The parents of a 14-year-old Hagerstown girl who died after consuming 48 ounces of Monster Energy drinks within a 24-hour span have filed suit against the maker of the high-caffeine beverages, saying the company’s product killed their daughter last December.
Monster is based in Corona, Calif.
An autopsy found that Fournier died of cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity that impeded her heart’s ability to pump blood. She suffered from an inherited disorder that can weaken blood vessels.
Monster says it doesn’t believe its beverages are responsible for Fournier’s death. The company says it’s not aware of any fatalities caused by its drinks. Monster says it will vigorously fight the lawsuit.
An autopsy found that Fournier died of cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity that impeded her heart’s ability to pump blood. She suffered from an inherited disorder that can weaken blood vessels.
Fournier’s mother told NBC4 that her daughter was screened regularly and was never given any caffeine restrictions.
She said she wants to see the FDA regulate energy drinks. Currently, it does not limit the amount of caffeine in energy drinks, or who can purchase them.
A Mayo Clinic study found that two 24-ounce cans of Monster Energy Drink contain 480 milligrams of caffeine, the equivalent of five eight-ounce cups of coffee.
“Having coffee and staying awake is one thing, but drinking multiple cans of highly caffeinated beverages without knowing how much caffeine you’re actually consuming is a dangerous activity,” said Amelia Arria, a medical researcher at the University of Maryland.
Arria believes the FDA needs to take a tougher stance on energy drinks, especially when it comes to kids “because they’re smaller; they can’t handle a large amount of a psychoactive substance,” she said.
The American Beverage Association says it’s adopted voluntary guidelines for manufacturers, which includes clearer labeling and more restrictive policies regarding marketing to children.
Monster says it will vigorously fight the lawsuit.

'Just had the time of my life in Manchester. Cant begin to describe their energy... Unbelievable... #PinkFridayRELOADEDTour.'
The Starships hitmaker was joined at the Manchester leg of her tour by 2011 X Factor star Misha B, who showed off her newly svelte figure in a red velvet top and black leather miniskirt.
And the 20-year-old starlet admitted her recent weight-loss was the result of a strict diet and exercise regime.
She told new! magazine: 'I've definitely dropped a dress size. I started eating properly and I joined a gym near to where I live, so I try and go as often as possible.'
But it wasn't just Misha joining Nicki on the Manchester leg of her Pink Friday: Reloaded tour, with a whole host of other stars turning out to support the musical duo.
Michael Strahan PLEASE STIP with these Rumors!
In a recent interview Michael Strahan says the worst part about his new hosting gig on Live with Kelly and Michael is that now he's the target of a bunch of rumors....
Michael Strahan appears on HBO's "Real Sports" and tells Bryant Gumbel,
“The worst of it?”
“I think early on when you’re reading all these things in the paper that aren’t true — I’m not an adulterer. I’m not gay. I mean, I didn’t beat anybody.”
OK, I've heard the adultery rumors and the beating rumors, but the gay rumors? That's a new one. *sips tea*
AND FINALLY FROM “THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART” FILES
