But Kanye wasn't the only one to feel the singer's (good-natured) sting. Dressed in a sparkly minidress and strumming a guitar, the star, 19, performed "Monologue Song (La La La)", featuring choice lines like, "You might think that I like writing songs about douche bags who cheat on me," and "Hey Joe! I'm doing really well!," apparently directed at former beau Joe Jonas.

Check out the entire video – including Swift's musical message to Taylor Lautner.

The House voted 220-215 last night to approve the measure,which would cost more than $1 trillion over 10 years. Just oneRepublican, Representative Joseph Cao of Louisiana, backed theplan, and 39 Democrats broke ranks to oppose it.

Lawmakers hailed the step as a historic follow-on to the1965 creation of the Medicare program for the elderly anddisabled. They said the bill would cover 36 million uninsuredAmericans and curb costs. New rules would prevent insurers fromdenying coverage to people with preexisting conditions, andseniors would get help obtaining preventive care and medicine.

Although most hosts perform monologues written by the show's team of writers, the 19-year-old country crooner wrote her intro herself, Swift's rep confirms to Usmagazine.com.

The singer dished on ex-boyfriends, rumored flames and -- of course -- Kanye West in an opening monologue song titled, "Monologue Song (La La La)."

After mentioning how she loves baking and things that smell like winter, she also sang that she liked writing songs "about douchebags who cheat on me ... so they're ashamed to go in public" when she mentions their names.

"Oh what a night!" Speaker Nancy Pelosi proudly proclaimed at a press conference immediately following passage of the health care bill.

The vote passed 220-215 with 39 Democrats voting against the bill, and one Republican supporting the sweeping plan, Rep. Joseph Cao, a first-term Republican who holds an overwhelmingly Democratic seat in New Orleans.

US President Barack Obama has hailed as "historic" the approval of a health bill by the House of Representatives.

He said he was "absolutely confident" the Senate would pass its own version, and that healthcare reforms would become law by the end of the year.

Passed in a narrow 220-215 vote by the House, the bill aims to extend coverage to 36 million more Americans and provide affordable healthcare to 96%.

Mr Obama has made healthcare reform a central plank of his domestic agenda.

Correspondents say the legislation could lead to the biggest changes in American healthcare in decades.

Windows Mobile is losing the last glimmers of its mojo--if it really had any to begin with--as the Droid and other phones based on the Android 2.0 operating system push the buzz meter needle into the red zone. Many in the media--which can play a big role in steering users to one technology platform or another--sense that Windows Mobile has now been relegated resolutely to has-been status.

Let's do a quick canvas of what some in the press are saying now that we're at the start of the Droid era. A post on SFGate.com (the Web site of the San Francisco Chronicle) is, like other commentary out there, clearly dismissive of Windows Mobile. "Curiously, Microsoft is nowhere to be seen in this battle royal," the author states, referring to the iPhone and Android.

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. -- Fedor Emelianenko suffered a broken nose and injured his left hand during his heavyweight bout with Brett Rogers Saturday at Strikeforce/M-1 Global "Fedor versus Rogers," Sherdog.com has learned from a source close to the fighter's camp.

Emelianenko, 33, knocked down Rogers with a right hook and finished the Minnesotan with follow-up punches 1 minute, 48 seconds into the second round.

After attending a postfight press conference, Emelianenko was sent to local hospital. He returned later the same night with his left arm in a soft cast nearly up to his elbow.

Billionaire Warren Buffett's investment firm has reported that profits almost tripled in the third quarter.

Berkshire Hathaway said its net profit was $3.2bn (£1.9bn) in the three months to September, compared to $1.1bn in the same period last year.

But most of that was due to an unrealised $1.1bn gain on some derivatives its insurance unit holds.

Mr Buffett last week said he was taking control of a US railroad in his biggest deal to date.

Berkshire agreed to buy the stock that it does not already own in Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF), the biggest US haulier of products such as corn and coal, for about $26bn in cash and stock.

In the months leading to Thursday's shooting spree that left 13 people dead and 29 others wounded, Hasan raised eyebrows with comments that the war on terror was "a war on Islam" and wrestled with what to tell fellow Muslim solders who had their doubts about fighting in Islamic countries.

The Affordable Health Care for America Act, or H.R. 3962, restricts insurance companies from denying coverage to anyone with a pre-existing condition or charging higher premiums based on gender or medical history. It also provides federal subsidies to those who cannot afford it and guarantees coverage for 96 percent of Americans, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.

Answer: You aren't the only person wondering whether it's a good idea to be vaccinated for the H1N1 flu. Let's start with the question of safety and how vaccines are made. Every year, experts predict what the most likely strains of flu will be and then develop a vaccine to target those strains. That's why you need a new vaccine every year.

When the new H1N1 virus emerged last spring, most of the seasonal flu vaccine had already been produced. No one predicted the sudden emergence of H1N1. Because there was no time to add H1N1 to the seasonal vaccine, manufacturers made a second flu vaccine for H1N1.

The 71/2 tons of steel debris from ground zero had been melted down to form the bow of the USS New York as "a symbol of our unshakable resolve; this is a city built of steel," said Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The ceremony was staged on the Hudson River pier that is home to the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum. Among the dignitaries were newly reelected New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and New York Gov. David Paterson. - AP

Gaining even more confidence in his putting, Mickelson strung together three birdies over the final five holes to turn a two-shot deficit into a two-shot lead over the back nine. He finished at 14-under 202.

Woods failed to make a birdie over the final eight holes for a 70, leaving him two shots behind. Woods was tied with Nick Watney, who holed a 50-foot eagle putt on the final hole for a 70.

"I know we are both looking forward to it," Mickelson said. "I think it will be a fun day, and we are excited to be playing in the last group here in China."

It will be the first time the world's top two players have been in the final group since their Duel at Doral in 2005, when Woods rallied from a two-shot deficit in the final round to win by one.

Law enforcement officers seized computers and e-mails belonging to Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan in an attempt to piece together what might have motivated the Army psychiatrist to allegedly open fire on the post, killing 13 and injuring 29.

Hasan, 39, was in stable condition at Brooke Army Medical Center, where he was taken off a ventilator late Saturday. Hospital officials reported he was conscious and talking, although none of his statements was made public.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi was forced to make an eleventh-hour concession restricting federal funding for abortion coverage in order to secure the support she needed from her large but fractious majority. Leaders said the last-minute wrangling provided the critical margin they needed for an expected vote late last night or early this morning.

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. -- Fedor Emelianenko left the Sears Centre Arena on Saturday with the moniker of world's No. 1 heavyweight still intact, but it did not come without a struggle.

Previously undefeated Brett Rogers gave the Russian legend his toughest fight in recent years at Strikeforce/M-1 Global "Fedor vs. Rogers," but Emelianenko prevailed with a dead-on right hook that cracked Rogers' chin and then pounced on his larger foe with crushing follow-up punches. Referee John McCarthy halted the melee 1 minute, 48 seconds into the second round.

On "Good Morning America," Rihanna explained how a fight over a text message set him off -- and once the beating started, all she could think about was "When is it going to stop?"

Interestingly enough, she says she doesn't hate him -- and instead wants him to "have a great career" and to "take this as something to go through and learn."

Emelianenko (31-1) landed a right hook that sent Rogers (10-1) down to the mat and Emelianenko followed with exchange of punches to the face of Rogers. Referee John McCarthy ended the fight at 1:48 in the second round.

The win didn't come easy for Emelianenko. He landed a left hook that knocked Rogers off balance in the first round, but Rogers landed a combination of punches that left blood smeared across Emelianenko's face.

The 6-foot-5, 265-pound Rogers had the size advantage over Emelianenko and wanted to keep the fight on his feet, but Emelianenko at 6-feet 235 beat Rogers at his own game by landing a series of uppercuts in the fight and not relying on his ground game.

The bill passed with a vote of 220 to 215, with only one single Republican - Joseph Cao from Louisana - choose "Yea."

The health reform bill included a controversial amendment to restrict coverage of abortion.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was forced to bring up the abortion amendment after a deal with conservative Democrats collapsed and they threatened to sink the whole bill.

The move enraged liberals, but most agreed to stay onboard and President Obama traveled to the House to make a personal appeal and seal the deal.
