OTTOTD: 6/29 - Twilight Pirates Edition

From CHICAGO'S BREAKING NEWS CENTER

In a new twist on the "Twilight Saga: New Moon" movie-taping controversy, former defendant Samantha Tumpach has become the plaintiff.

In a lawsuit filed today in Cook County Circuit Court, Tumpach alleges wrongdoing at that hands of the movie facility where she was arrested in November 2009 after employees caught her recording segments of the tween vampire hit with a personal video camera.

She remained incarcerated from Saturday Nov. 28 to Monday Nov. 30. On Dec. 11, the charges were dismissed.

Tumpach, 22, is suing Rosemont's Muvico movie theater for more than $50,000, charging malicious prosecution, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence and defamation.
"She has suffered great public ridicule, embarrassment, humiliation, inconvenience, damages to her reputation and other damages," the lawsuit states.

Tumpach was taken into custody last November after theater employees said they saw her recording the popular vampire movie. Only a few minutes of footage was on the camera. Tumpach said she was only capturing the festivities of her sister's birthday party.

Less than a month later, prosecutors dropped the felony charges.

Tumpach said in her lawsuit that she and her family had been celebrating her sister's birthday at the theater, using digital cameras to take photos and videos of themselves. Tumpach said she videotaped the opening of the movie "hoping to capture the title and beginning as a memory of this exciting event."

She later recorded a minute and twenty-five seconds in hopes of capturing "her favorite actor take his shirt off," the lawsuit states.

Tumpach alleges that instead of telling her that she could not record in the movie theater, the theater manager contacted the police.

Also, anybody willing to trade for Olivo yet, or do I get to continue to enjoy his services in my Utility player rotation?

1-3 last night with 2 runs, and more stellar play at SS. I made this one play from so deep in the hole and gunned a guy out after our 3rd basemen fell down trying to cut it off, it was majestic.

The controversial use of full body scanners in airports could lead to an increase in skin cancers, according to leading scientists.
They say that the low level beam does deliver a small dose of radiation to the body but because the beam concentrates on the skin – one of the most radiation-sensitive organs of the human body – that dose may be up to 20 times higher than first estimated.

Everyone is so quick to write off Beej, but this whole episode has galvanized me to root for him harder than anyone on the team. When Scott Kazmir lost his slider I lost my favorite player in baseball and have been searching like a Ronin without a master. Beejus Upton is my new master unto him I will serve until one of us is dead or out of MLB.

He probably would be best served to write good analytical pieces and there would be an opportunity to advance in the field. Putting pictures of guys wives on the internet is not going to endear him to anyone, nor is calling out Rob Neyer and saying that he doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Is someone going to win a Pulitzer here? or at any of these sites?

I know what you’re saying, but his goal is more entertainment for casual fans. There is a huge niche there, while I would say the hardcore, analytical fan is more comfortable over here. You should see the argument I got in last night on an even dumber message board yesterday. See if you can spot me. Cork’s a passionate fan that has a microphone, generally this is a bad idea, but 95% of the time I like what he says and how he says it.

Millions of people believe that we are living in the "end times". Many are looking for a viable solution to survive potential future Earth devastating events. Eventually, our planet will realize another devastating catastrophe, whether manmade, or a cyclical force of nature. Disasters are rare and unexpected, but on any sort of long timeline, they’re inevitable. It’s time to prepare!

The accepted solution to most of the threat scenarios is to find underground shelter. The soil of the Earth itself can provide the best shelter for most catastrophes, including a pole shift, super volcano eruptions, solar flares, earthquakes, asteroids, tsunamis, nuclear attack, bio terrorism, chemical warfare and even widespread social anarchy. The governments of the world have been busy building vast underground shelter complexes for the elite. What do they know? The rest of us are on our own, without a long-term survival solution.

Vivos is a privately funded venture, with no religious affiliations, building a global network of underground shelters, to accommodate thousands of people. Vivos will provide a life assurance solution for those that wish to be prepared to survive these potential events, whether they occur now, in 2012, or in decades to come. Co-own an equity share of the Vivos shelter closest to your home area.

TAMPA – Two Tampa police officers are dead after being shot this morning during a traffic stop.

A massive search continues for a man and woman last seen in a red 1994 Toyota Camry.

Officer Jeffrey Kocab, 31, had been with the department for about 14 months, coming from the Plant City Police Department. His wife, Sara, is nine months pregnant.

Officer Dave Curtis, also 31, had been with the department for almost four years. The former Hillsborough County jail deputy leaves behind his wife, Kelly, and four sons, ages 9 years to 8 months.

Obviously the solution is to make Upton play at different positions ever day. Half of the time he’ll play in the infield, and the other half in the outfield.

Much better than the Merriweather show last year, and also betet rthan when I saw them in Hampton before the hiatus. Wasn’t as good as the two nights in Miami for NYE in 2003 I believe.

Catcher Jason Varitek has had an amzing resurgence this year with a .374 wOBA while playing behind regular catcher Victor Martinez, allowing Martinez to play in other spots (1B and DH) to keep him fresh. Martinez continues to be one of the most feared hitting catchers in the game (.357 wOBA).

Belated, but well worth it Blind Itemz
1. "Here is an ad from the Personals M4M section that was posted on Craigslist Los Angeles on Saturday. Yes, even hip hop stars need a little love.

I’m More Than Just An Option (Beverly Hills, Los Angeles)

I am in town for a few days on business looking to find someone to hangout with and just be myself with. We can have lunch, drive the coast, play games, or sit and talk. I don’t have pics because I gotta watch my back, cause I’m not just anybody. I will say that I’m in my early 20′s, 6’2″,bi-racial, decent body, nice smile. You must be ages 25-40, masculine, good head on his shoulder, vert discret [sic]. If you like what you hear, send me a Pic and Stats."
2. “A paparazzo from a website with high internet traffic was peering into this B-list TV and movie actress’s car a few days ago and snapped a photo of her iPhone. The front screen had the name of her ex-boyfriend and the rehab facility where he is currently staying. So, despite pretending that she is no longer in contact with the ex, her phone seems to tell a different story. Of course, she doesn’t want her contact with the ex to get in the way of her divorce settlement with her husband—nor does the website want to find itself on the other side of a lawsuit with the very litigious husband—so it looks like everyone will simply keep quiet about this one for now. Just knowing that this relationship is coming to an end is enough to make us grin any day.”
3. “This celebrity that everyone loves (including many actresses) has been famous for so long, he is out of touch with the real world. He has gotten so used to not talking to ‘regular’ people, he doesn’t know how to do it. During a recent holiday weekend which most of his staff had off, he had some problems with his cable. When the cable man came to the door, our star literally did not know how to communicate with him. He stood at the doorway stammering, and then expected the cable man to know what to do automatically. Finally he got upset, cursed at the man and yelled, ‘Hold up a minute, I’m not good with people.’ He punched a number in his cellphone and had a man on the phone explain to the cable guy what the problem was and what he needed to do. Not John Mayer.”
4. “This so close to A list television actor who has been in movies, but is only really known for ones that involved a television character he plays cheated on his D list actress girlfriend. While she was pregnant. More than once.”

Have you guys seriously missed this from the 5-3-3 thread?
Upton and Pena’s time is about up!
They better start mashing….. I’m a huge Rays fan I watch every game. I just think they better start putting up big numbers when it matters. Cause looks more and more like they are trying out for other teams for next season. Don’t see how you can keep the other guys like Jennings, S. Rodriguez, L. Anderson, and M. Joyce outta of the lineup with Pena and Upton aren’t producing and are going want more money in 2010 with their deals up. I say get ready for 2011 Jennings, S. Rod., L. Anderson, and Joyce. your time is 2011. They are ready and so are the fans! C.C. is likely gone and Pena so we have the guys in place to replace them and Upton and not drop off. This allows up to pay the starting rotation and guys like Jaso and Benoit for the next few years! I can’t wait. SO TIRED of guys who haven’t developed at the plate and can’t pull the ball (Pena)or have a clue as too what they are trying to accomplish at the plate(umm BJ Upton)

Awesome sign in Jose Julio Ruiz and L. Anderson ( who is ready now to play in the bigs) these too bring the plate skills we miss either at first or outfield. Hell, Dan Johnson could even be the future DH if Blalock don’t play first or DH.

Finish strong 2010 Rays and bring on 2011.

Signed frustrated fan caught looking at Upton watching strike 3 middle the plate! or is ground ball to first can’t hit my weight Pena!
