10 THINGS NOT TO SAY TO A BASEBALL FAN (Lemondrop.com)
- "Do they serve sushi at the stadium?" Actually, most major league parks have expanded their menus to include more varieties of healthy grub. You better put some stadium mustard on it, though, unless you want to look like a snob.
- "Eww. Baseball hats make me look bad." Fact: A girl who can pull off a baseball cap (and there aren't many) is infinitely hot. It'd behoove you to at least take a swing.
- "Do we have to stay for the whole game?" Did we have to stay until the end of 'The Proposal'?
- "My ex loved baseball!" So do a lot of guys -- it's America's national pastime, after all. It's no reason to bring him up, nor is it an indication of the intentions of a baseball fan who also happens to be male.
- "Don't all these guys use performance enhancers?" Technically, makeup is a performance enhancer, too. How else would Sarah Jessica Parker keep from looking like Dee Snider? Seriously, Google it.
- "Why is the 'K' backwards?" Save yourself the embarrassment by knowing that 1) the letter "K" designates a strikeout in baseball, and 2) when the K is marked backward on the scoreboard, it means the batter struck out looking. (He watched the pitch cross the plate without even swinging.)
- "This game is so boring." While it's not always high-octane action, baseball is a game of reflex, skill and strategy. Kinda like dating.
- "I hate the Cubs." The Chicago Cubs, who haven't won a World Series in more than 100 years, are the scrawny, helpless little brother of baseball. Picking on them is like toe-punting a guinea pig.
- "'Summer Catch' is, like, my favorite movie!" We'll pretend you said "Major League," "Field of Dreams" or "The Bad News Bears" instead.
- That A-Rod sure is hot! Think so? Know who else is hot? Erica Blasberg (golf), Ashley Force (motor sports), Biba Golic (table tennis), Danica Patrick (motor sports), Jelena Dokic (tennis), Missy Gibson (surfing), Natalie Gulbis (golf), Niki Gudex (bike riding), Ashley Harkleroad (tennis), Jennie Finch (softball), Ana Paula Mancino (volleyball), Kristi Leskinen (skiing), Heather Mitts (soccer), Tanith Belbin (figure skating), Lokelani McMichael (triathlon), Maria Sharapova (tennis), Amanda Beard (swimming), Daniela Hantuchova (tennis), Anna Kournik ... oh, sorry, is that annoying?
- Rihanna was in and out of a Switzerland hospital Monday, following a concert there, to have a doctor take a look at an injured rib.
- Josh Groban and Olivia Newton-John will both appear in the season finale of "Glee," which was filmed this week.
- They held the 2010 Matrix Awards luncheon Monday at the Waldorf Astoria in New York. Biggest highlight: Tina Fey and Sheryl Crow showing up at the event, wearing practically the same dress.
- Cirque du Soleil is creating a new show featuring the music of Michael Jackson. Seems like a good idea. It'll start at the MGM Mirage in Las Vegas.
- Courtney Love wants to change her image and is legally changing her name, from Courtney Love to Courtney Michelle.
- Tara Reid's rep has confirmed the actress has called off her engagement -- just a month before she was supposed to get married to her businessman boyfriend, Michael Axtmann.
- Texas' Attorney General Gregory Abbott is fighting attempts by lesbian women to get divorces from their unions established in states. He says it's because Texas doesn't recognize those unions, so it can't dissolve them.
- Leonard Nimoy, you know Mr. Spock, has announced plans to retire from acting after 60 years in the movie business.
- David Hasselhoff is going to return to the show that gave him his start. After 28 years, he's returning to "The Young and the Restless" as Dr. William Foster.
- Pink says no, despite the rumors, she's not pregnant.
- New York magazine says that Jennifer Lopez's new film might be as big a bomb as "Gigli."
- Heather Locklear has been arrested after allegedly hitting a no-parking sign early Saturday morning and then driving way without notifying anyone. Yep, hit 'n run.
Ladies, looking for a good man? Relationship columnist Demetria L. Lucas, aka A Belle in Brooklyn, has six rules you should follow:
- Smile and say "hello!"
- If you want to meet a man, look like you want to meet a man. Brush your hair and use lip gloss.
- Men don't notice you across a room because of your brain. Give them something to look out for.
- Flatter your best asset. If it's your smile, then smile. If it's your legs, wear a skirt.
- Stop looking for men in bunches, such as a club or happy hour. Men are everywhere -- on the street, in line, in the elevator, on the train. When you see someone who catches your eye -- no matter where you are -- say something!
- Go out alone. (But be safe.) Even if you don't want to, try it at least once.
What clothes and fashions shouldn't you wear if you're over 50? Here to help: "Over 50" Fashion No Nos from AOL.
- Awful After 50: They're nicknamed "granny panties" for a reason - oversized underwear can rapidly age a woman both mentally and appearance-wise.
- Awful After 50: Wearing pantyhose with sandals is a definite no-no at any age, but the older one gets, the more frequently this rule seems to be broken.
- Awful After 50: Unless you're Tina Turner, chances are that your triceps and biceps are best under the cover of your clothing, so steer clear of sleeveless clothing.
- Awful After 50: A little cleavage may be sexy, but showing off your twins in a super-low V-Neck can appear desperate at any age, but especially as you become older.
- Awful After 50: Too much bling is not a good thing for the graceful ager, so stay away from too many strands, rings, clips, pins and other shiny things.
- Awful After 50: Except for the occasional aerobics class exception, hair scrunchies are entirely inappropriate for any woman over the age of five, rather less 50.
Check This Water Ski World Record!
The Horsehead Water Ski Club in Australia has set an amazing new world record by squeezing 114 water skiers behind a SINGLE boat. We're not talking pyramids here folks -- we're talking 114 ski ropes and 114 individual skiers! That smashes the previous record of 100 that was set in 1986. Greg Hind from Guinness World Records said, "Conditions were fantastic, the water was nearly glass, which on a bay of this size is absolutely unbelievable. The amazing feat, which also set the record for "most water skiers pulled by a single boat over one nautical mile", can be viewed on YouTube and it's worth a look! (The Sun)
Talk About Lactose Intolerant!
Talk about being lactose intolerant. In Sydney, Australia, 39-year-old Sarah May Ward was driving down the street with her boyfriend when she was spotted by 21-year-old Eli Westlake who was with his brother Joel and a few friends. As a prank, Eli started throwing cheeseballs at her car and Sarah responded by RUNNING HIM DOWN AND KILLING HIM! It was later revealed that she had consumed two bottles of wine and had taken cannabis, ecstasy and valium before getting behind the wheel. She later argued that she never intended to kill Mr. Westlake but was just trying to teach him a lesson. The jury decided to teach her a lesson instead and convicted her of murder and the judge sentenced her to 18 years in prison for what he described as "a senseless act of anger." She'll be eligible for parole in 2027. (Daily Telegraph)
Boobquake Is Coming This Monday!
Over in Iran, cleric Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi angered women's groups around the world this week when he claimed that it's promiscuous women are responsible for the series of earthquakes the world has seen over the last few months. He said, "Many women who do not dress modestly lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes.'' Women in the Islamic Republic are required by law to cover from head to toe, but Sedighi says an increase in young women flaunting the law-- not the fact that Tehran sits on hundreds of fault lines-- is risking the lives of the city's 12 million inhabitants. But there's a single woman, Jennifer McCreight, who has set out on a mission to prove him wrong. She launched the "Boobquake" Facebook page three days ago, and has already enlisted more than 21,000 women around the world who have promised to show as much cleavage as possible. "Boobquake" is planned for this Monday, April 26 and Jennifer says on that day, "I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts." She goes on to say that short shorts will work as well if that's the lady's preferred form of immodesty. She added, "With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake. If not, I'm sure Sedighi can come up with a rational explanation for why the ground didn't rumble." Boy it's going to be some kind of weirdness if there actually is a big quake this Monday! Then old Sedighi can proudly holler: "Now what you got to say Bi-otch!" (News AU)
Most Amazing Rescue Ever?
This could possibly be the most amazing rescue ever -- mainly because it happened in mid-air! In Magdeburg, Germany, 24-year-old Katharina Wagner was a very experienced skydiver with more than 1,000 successful jumps under her belt. But on her latest jump, at 14,000 feet, as she leapt from the aircraft a sudden gust of wind slammed her into the fuselage. She hurt her shoulder so badly that she couldn't use her arm to pull the release cord on her parachute. A member of the ground staff said, "What happened next was like something out of an action film." Another female skydiver who jumped simultaneously from the doorway saw what had happened and went after her. She made a series of amazing maneuvers and was able to reach Katharina and pull her rip cord for her. Still, Katharina was unable to steer the parachute and hit a lamppost before sprawling on a main road. But her life was saved. She's now recovering in a hospital for a broken arm and injuries to both legs but is expected to make a full recovery. (Ananova) %For Better or Worse? A very bizarre trial is about to start in Los Angeles. Back in 2006, Abby Dorn gave birth to triplets -- a girl and two boys. However, she tragically suffered brain damage from complications of blood loss after a doctor nicked her uterus during delivery. A malpractice lawsuit was later settled for nearly $8 million but Abby was left unable to move, talk, eat or drink, and now lives with her parents, Susan and Paul Cohen, in Myrtle Beach, S.C. She receives hours of daily therapy at a cost of about $33,000 a month, funded by the malpractice settlement. Now let's tell you about the father -- Dan Dorn. He divorced Abby and now lives with the triplets in Los Angeles and has refused any visitation for the kids with their mom saying it would be too traumatic. Not only that -- he wants a piece of the malpractice settlement for child support. An L.A. County Judge has since ruled that Abby's parents can sue for their daughter's right to see her children so that's what's going down. In a 2007 medical report, a neurologist described Abby's condition as permanent and said many of her mental functions were too impaired to be assessed. Her acupuncturist , however, has contended she has demonstrated a basic ability to comprehend and communicate. Now that's one jury I would hate to be on. (MSNBC)
Efficient Law Enforcement?
It took no less than NINE government agencies to arrest a whopping eight people for smoking pot at a 420 Festival being held at the Pozo Saloon in Santa Margarita, California. Authorities also seized marijuana, Ecstasy and prescription drugs. The eight people were all taken to county jail. But none of this would have been possible without the cooperation and effort of the San Luis Obispo County Narcotic Task Force, the U.S. Forrest Service, the California Highway Patrol, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Department, and the police departments of Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo, Atascadero, Pismo Beach and Arroyo Grande. That works out to .88 persons busted per agency! Good work guys! Now that's efficient law enforcement. And you know those pot smokers pose such a threat to society! So much more so than the rapists and murders running around all over California. (The Tribune)
Stop Giving Your Dog the Bone!
Dogs may be man's best friend, but they wouldn't be a friend at all of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration if they knew what advice they are giving dog owners. Basically -- toss out your bones and DON'T give them to your dog! Carmela Stamper, a veterinarian in the Center for Veterinary Medicine at the FDA said, "Some people think it's safe to give dogs large bones, like those from a ham or a roast but bones are unsafe no matter what their size." The FDA spelled out 10 reasons it's a bad idea to give doggie a real bone. Among them: broken teeth, mouth or tongue injuries, bones or fragments of bones getting stuck in a dog's esophagus or even its stomach, which might require surgery. Bone fragments also can cause constipation. Worse, it could be deadly. Giving your dog a real bone could cause a bacterial infection of the abdomen, called peritonitis, when fragments poke holes in a dog's stomach or intestines. And while we're ruining your dog's life, we'll go ahead and mention that the Better Business Bureau recently cautioned pet owners about feeding a popular treat, Dynamic Pet Products' Real Ham Bone for Dogs, to pets. It says a number of consumers have complained that dogs became seriously ill or died from internal damage due to bone fragments. The company has denied any wrongdoing, according to the bureau news release. (CNN)
A Painful Wrong Number!
In New Jersey's West Orange High School, student Logan Svitzer was sitting in his U.S. history class when his cell phone rang. His teacher, Robbin Sweeney, was so annoyed that she called the number back. The person who answered claimed to be the Zambian ambassador to the United Nations, Lazarous Kapambwe. But Sweeney didn't believe him and thought it was just a prank. She then spent ten minutes on the phone verifying that yes, indeed that was Ambassador Kapambwe who had dialed Logan's number by mistake while trying to reach a diplomat from Sierra Leone. Too make up for the inconvenience, Kapambwe came and spoke at the school to tell students all about Zambia and urge them to consider diplomatic service as a career. (The Star-Ledger)

Prom Limo Gets Repossessed During the Prom!
Prom night ended up not being everything a few seniors from Jenks, Oklahoma had hoped for as they watched a repo man drive away a limousine they had rented. Landon Wiland said he and friends had rented the car from Galaxy Limos for Friday's prom in Jenks, a suburb of Tulsa. Wiland said they had gotten out of the car when it was driven away-- while their driver was standing next to them. At first Landon thought it was being carjacked. Galaxy Limo owner Jim Nicolotti claims there was a miscommunication between his lender and the repossession company. He insisted he and his bank had worked out their issues, but the bank did not tell the repo company to cancel the job. But here's the kicker: Nicolotti said he would offer a partial refund or a free future rental to the customers affected. Partial refund? Dude -- you've ruined prom night. They get ALL the money back, yes? (KTUL News)
The Book of Mormon Is Coming To Broadway!
The Book of Mormon is coming to Broadway in a new musical that will open next spring. But Mormons are not exactly excited about it-- mainly because it's being written by the two guys who created "South Park" -- Matt Stone and Trey Parker. Yes, this will be a satire of the Mormon Church that juxtaposes the story of two eager yet naive Latter Day Saints missionaries in Uganda with the church's own complicated spiritual history. Officials with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints declined to comment but one practicing Mormon, John Dehlin, who runs the website mormonmatters.org, said he's happy about the musical because it means the Utah-based church is important enough to mock. On his website Dehlin wrote: "How can they call us a cult once we're headlining 52nd Street? The Jews got 'Fiddler.' The Catholics got 'The Sound of Music' and 'Doubt.' It's our time to shine." (Salt Lake City Tribune)
When Life Gives You Locust Plagues, Turn Them Into Locust Pizza!
Eastern Australia has been experiencing one of the worst locust infestations in years causing widespread destruction of crops among other problems. But one local cafe in Mildura is capitalizing on the problem by offering up locust pizza to patrons! The idea for the pizza actually came from town Mayor Glenn Milne, who trapped the insects in a garbage bag. In the meantime, a Mildura car wash operator said his business had "quadrupled." (News AU)
Michigan Law Enforcement Eats a Huge Slice of Humble Pie!
Last year, the city of Lansing, Michigan accepted a grant of nearly $900,000 from the federal government, stipulating that the money would be used to pay the salaries of four community police officers, one of whom was to "monitor registered sex offenders in the community." Problem is, that didn't exactly happen. State Police finally arrested Adrian Hill, a man convicted of sex crimes involving children and who was on the Michigan State Police's most-wanted fugitives list for failing to register as a sex offender in 2007. But none of that $900,000 grant money helped track him down. Nope, that was thanks to a little investigative reporting done by the Michigan Messenger newspaper. They simply looked up a few publicly available websites, including Facebook, where they found that Mr. Hill maintained a page under his own name, using his actual birth date. In addition, Facebook indicated that Hill was actively involved in a Jackson daycare center and was preparing a large event to feed the homeless at a community center frequented by many of Lansing's poorest youth. Most chilling of all, Hill is pictured on his Facebook page with a young child in his lap. Lansing Police say they have been tracking Hill for some time, but that he was "always one step ahead of us." Apparently they never heard of Facebook. (The Michigan Messenger)
One Politician Guaranteed to Never Lie!
Well there's one thing residents of Tracy City, Tennessee can be sure of -- their newly elected mayor will never lie to them. That's because he's dead! Yep, despite his sudden death from a heart attack a month ago, Carl Geary still pulled in three times as many votes as his opponent. His widow, Susan Geary, said his election "was not a surprise at all to me. The day he passed away, people were calling with condolences and saying, 'We're still voting for him.'" Geary, who was 55 when he passed, was known for his straight talk and served on the local council. He won the election 285 votes to 85. Local business owners said the vote to elect Geary was mainly a protest against the current mayor, Barbara Brock. Brock, who apparently has a malfunction in her sensitivity chip, had campaigned on her efforts to beautify the town. She said she was shocked the town would vote for someone who is "pushing up the daisies" rather than planting them. Yes -- she really said that! (Ananova)
Texas Wants To Paddle Your Children!
Looks like the old school practice of paddling of misbehaving students is making a comeback in the small Texas town of Temple. The head of the local school board says that without paddling, there were no consequences for kids. So students in Temple's 14 schools now have to worry about getting their butts slapped with a board in addition to detention and other school punishments since a unanimous vote by local lawmakers. Temple, a town of only 60,000, initially banned the practice of paddling however it was the parents who insisted on bringing it back. So far only one student has received a whack across the bottom. But the school board says that high school students are behaving better. Currently corporal punishment is legal in 20 states, including Texas. I can't decide. All the research seems to say that spanking is bad. Yet, I know I got a few whacks with the paddle in school when I was a boy. Didn't make me violent. Didn't make me an angry, confused adult. Mainly made me keep my mouth shut in school. (AHN News)
Turns Out You're Not So Green America!
Going green! The country's going green! Or at least that's what we hear and maybe even would like to believe. Wake up America! The truth is Americans are no more eco-friendly today than we were ten years ago according to the latest Gallup poll. The 90% of us who voluntarily recycle newspapers, glass, aluminum and motor oil also did so in 2000. And only 3% more of us say we'll buy a product because we think it's better for the environment than a decade ago. Also, the poll says Americans are no more likely now to engage in environmental activism than a decade ago. This wonderful news all just in time for the 40th anniversary of Earth Day which happens this Thursday. (USA Today)

Never Told A Lie and Never Returned Library Books!
It has been said that the father of our country, George Washington, never told a lie. Apparently he also never returned library books. Well, at least a couple of them. The New York Society Library, one of the city's oldest libraries, says one of its ledgers shows that the President George Washington has racked up 220 years' worth of late fees on two books he borrowed, but never returned. One of the books was the "Law of Nations," which deals with international relations. The other was a volume of debates from Britain's House of Commons. Both books were due on Nov. 2, 1789 but alas, are still reported to be out. While head librarian Mark Bartlett says the institution isn't seeking payment of the fines, they would love to get the books back. Other founding fathers that didn't quite get the concept of "borrowing books" include Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr and John Jay -- all who also have overdue books still out from The Society Library. (Daily News)
Intentional Vomiting? Really?
21-year-old Matthew Clemmens has been arrested and jailed after he intentionally vomited on an off-duty police captain and his 11-year-old daughter. This all went down in the stands of a Phillies game as the Phillies played The Nationals. Clemmens was charged with assault, reckless endangerment, disorderly conduct and related offenses. He allegedly made himself vomit on Michael Vangelo, an off-duty Easton police captain, and his daughter after a companion of Clemmens' was kicked out for unruly behavior. Vangelo said, "It was the most vile, disgusting thing I've ever seen. He has two fingers down his throat; he lunges forward and vomits on myself and my 11-year-old." Vangelo also said as he tried to push his children safely behind him, Clemmens punched him in the face. Four or five fans in the next section rushed to help and held vomit boy down until police arrived. (myway.com)
How Beer Can Kill!
To his friends, 22-year-old John Peake of Australia was considered an "extreme dude" who loved a cold beer and a good laugh. Unfortunately too many beers and his "extreme dude" mentality cost him his life. After a night of drinking, John and his buddies lined up two rolling trash cans at the top of a steep hill and decided to see if they could make it down. This was a very bad decision as John hit a gutter and slammed headfirst into a tree which killed him on the spot. Another young man, who rode a second trash can, survived the steep descent. Friend David Gorrel later said, "He was laughing the whole way down. Our mate, he died laughing." Peake's friends tried desperately to revive him at the scene but he was pronounced dead a short time later at Gosford Hospital. (News AU)
Irony of Biblical Proportions!
Kind of ironic from a biblical perspective that Israel has imposed a two-year ban on fishing in the Sea of Galilee. This of course puts a halt to a practice that dates back to biblical times when tradition holds Jesus and his disciples fished those waters. The reason for the ban is to help preserve fish stocks which have plummeted dramatically. The agriculture ministry blames the use of illegal nets that trap young fish and prevent stocks from maturing. According to the bible, Jesus recruited some of his apostles from the lake's fishermen and he also performed miracles there including walking on its waters and multiplying loaves and fish to feed the multitudes. The most popular fish in the lake is commonly known as the St Peter's Fish. (Sydney Morning Herald)
Note To Self: Secure the Domain Name Before the Election!
In Revere, Massachusetts, Corey Abrams announced last month that he was running for a seat on the Revere City Council. Then his life and namesake became a nightmare. A blackmailer threatened to post pornography on a website he had created and called coreyabrams.com -- unless the candidate paid him for the domain name. Abrams, a married father of four, refused and within days graphic pornographic images appeared on the website, according to his campaign manager. Then came anti-Semitic and racist postings on the site, including a doctored photograph of Abrams wearing a Star of David, which Jews were forced to wear by the Nazis during the Holocaust. The cyber attacks on Abrams have turned a barely publicized campaign for the Ward One seat into a major criminal investigation and brought condemnation from local leaders. Attorney General Martha Coakley's office is investigating the allegations of extortion and civil rights violations. George Rotondo Jr., a four-term Revere city councilor said, "It really takes politics to a new low." The website has since been shut down. Revere Mayor Thomas G. Ambrosino said, "I'm certainly saddened by the fact that that's how people engage in an effort to take down a candidate, but the Internet can be a very vile place." (Boston Globe)
How Not To Clean a Bong!
In Las Cruces, New Mexico, Andrew J. Garcia was trying to clean his bong with alcohol. But then he must have forgotten that wasn't water in the tube because then he tried to light up. This of course set the bong ablaze which in turn set his curtains ablaze which in turn completely burned down his mobile home. An off-duty deputy spotted Garcia driving away from the burning mobile home and alerted authorities. Police busted burned bong boy after a short chase. (WPVI News)
If You Must Shoplift With Your Two-Year-Old, Please Don't Leave Him Behind!
In Citra, Florida, 29-year-old Shannon Cooper had decided to go shoplifting with her two-year-old son in tow. She rounded up nearly $65 worth of products from a discount store including nail polish, fake nails, Icy Hot packs, fabric softener and other items which she allegedly stashed in her purse. But when confronted by the manager, she fled leaving her son behind to fend for himself. A customer picked up the child, carried him outside and yelled at Cooper to come back. At that time she was in the median of U.S. 301 and came back, took her son and left again. Because she was also stupid enough to leave her wallet behind, deputies quickly found her address and paid her a visit. Cooper yelled at the officers, "I'm not going back to jail," then ran into a bathroom and slammed the door. Alas, this wasn't enough to keep the police away and they arrested her and then found the stolen items on her bed. She was charged with child neglect, retail petit theft and resisting without violence. (Ocala.com)
