Heroes

Official Site

Season Premiere Monday September 25th 9/8c

They thought they were like everyone else… until they woke with incredible abilities. In Japan, a lowly office worker can teleport at will. In New York, a struggling artist can paint the future. In Los Angeles, a discontented beat cop can hear the thoughts of others. Elsewhere, a high school cheerleader discovers she is unbreakable and a single mom realizes she has a powerful alter ego. Heroes chronicles the lives of these people and the lives of others like them - whose destiny just might be saving humankind.

Xbox 360 HD-DVD Drive

Microsoft hasn’t told us how much the Xbox 360’s HD-DVD drive will cost, but they do promise it will be the most affordable way to enjoy high definition DVDs this year. Our guess is that we’ll see the add-on on shelves in December for about $200.

Microsoft’s X360 HD-DVD drive is simple, compact, and well-designed. It attaches via a mini-USB to the X360 which is where all the processing for the drive will happen. - IGN

Pennington impressive as Jets down Bills

Chad Pennington made up for the New York Jets’ lack of a running game. Pennington capped three drives of 58 yards or more with touchdowns, and linebacker Victor Hobson’s 32-yard fumble return for a score helped the Jets to a 28-20 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

The Jets (2-1) won despite allowing 475 yards offense, while managing a mere 256 of their own, including a meager 74 yards rushing. They overcame career outings by running back Willis McGahee, who had 150 yards rushing, and J.P. Losman’s 328 yards passing. - Yahoo

U.S. Loses Davis Cup…Ryder Cup…Coffee Mug

Andy Roddick struggled early but took the third and fourth sets before Dmitry Tursunov finally broke his serve in the 32nd game to win the four-hour, 48-minute match.

The United States was eliminated from the Davis Cup semifinals Sunday when Andy Roddick lost 17-15 to Russia’s Dmitry Tursunov in a fifth-set marathon that concluded a match lasting nearly five hours.

The Americans trailed 2-1 entering the last day of the best-of-five competition and needed singles victories from Roddick and Blake to advance.

“You feel like you let your teammates down and your country down,” Roddick said. “It’s not an easy thing, especially to fight back all that way and to lose. It’s tough.” - SI.com

Joke of the day

Sent in by Mia…good one…

Boss Asks Employee:- “Do you believe that there is Life After Death?”

Employee:- “Certainly not, there’s no Proof of it.” he replied.

Boss:- “Well, there is now. After you left early yesterday to go to
your brother’s funeral, he came here looking for you!”

The Lonely Yankee

Mike made a funny comment on the Yankees “…..and their wealthy, bi-racial, good-looking 3B!” haha!, I’m sure Roly knows, but for you guys who don’t know… there is a really good piece Sports Illustrated did on A Rod..Give the guy a break. He’s hitting .287, with 33 homers and 114 RBIs! I think his problem is, he’s too nice… wants everyone to like him and he is to easily accessible to the media.

Despite his extraordinary numbers, New York fans are quick to discount his contributions. And when things go wrong for A-Rod, even his teammates find him hard to motivate and harder to understand

“Mussina doesn’t get hammered at all,” he said. “He’s making a boatload of money. Giambi’s making [$20.4 million], which is fine and dandy, but it seems those guys get a pass. When people write [bad things] about me, I don’t know if it’s [because] I’m good-looking, I’m biracial, I make the most money, I play on the most popular team….”

HBO Extends “Entourage”

Looks like Ari Gold will get another chance to hug it out.

HBO has given an early commitment for a fourth season of Entourage, ordering 12 more episodes of the inside-Hollywood series.

The decision to continue production on the show is hardly a shocker as it’s currently in the throes of its most successful season to date.

The show produced and inspired by Mark Wahlberg has averaged 2.6 million viewers in the first part of this season, according to Nielsen Media Research, considerably higher than its season two average of 1.9 million. - EOnline

Duran Duran record with Timberlake

Justin Timberlake and Duran Duran have recorded a collaboration which is expected to be released in the near future.

The pop superstar is understood to have got together with Le Bon and company recently to lay down the track, which is not yet thought to have a title.

Timbaland, one of the hottest producers in 21st century music and the man at the helm of Timberlake’s FutureSex/LoveSounds, has apparently produced the song.

A spokesperson for Duran Duran said it will appear on their upcoming new album. “They are currently trying to schedule more time to get together again and finish the project,” he commented.

Timberlake and Duran apparently met for the first time at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, when the British pop legends won the Lifetime Achievement Award. - Yahoo

Yanks celebrate ninth straight East title

On Wednesday night, the Yankees sat and watched the Twins finish off the Red Sox, 8-2, on the big-screen television in the visitor’s clubhouse at the Rogers Centre, home of the Toronto Blue Jays.

That’s when the party started. Corks were popping, champagne and beer was flying through the air and tears were flowing.

The Yankees were able to call themselves division champs for a ninth straight season.

Most consecutive division titles

Team Titles Years
Atlanta Braves 14 1991-2005
New York Yankees 9 1998-2006 *
New York Yankees 5 1960-1964
Oakland Athletics 5 1971-1975

Mattel Inc. on September 19, 2006 unveiled the 10th anniversary edition of its Tickle Me Elmo doll, a new red plush ‘T.M.X. Elmo’ as seen in this handout photo, that slaps its leg and keels over in a fit of laughter when tickled. The doll, which stands for ‘Tickle Me Extreme’ or ‘Tickle Me Ten,’ has been shrouded in secrecy for months as Mattel tried to generate buzz for the latest Elmo version and kick off the holiday toy-selling season with a bang. - Yahoo
