Sammy Sosa Skin


PHOTOS! Did something happened to Sammy Sosa? Here are pictures of Sammy Sosa’s skin, eyes, and face then (above) and now. Sosa’s eyes and skin turned others’ eyes this week.

The Latin Grammys held in Las Vegas this week may have hardly turned up on the media radar (except a brief mention on LALATE). But now Saturday, press are chattering, not about the Latin Grammys, but about pictures of Sammy Sosa’s face. Above is Sosa in the past. Here is Sosa this week:

Sammy Sosa Photo 3

Press are asking about eye color and skin. And yet, no answers. Are these green contacts? Yahoo News thinks they are fake green contacts. But is something else going on? Sosa entered the majors in 1989. But is this the same as he looked then?

Sosa is here photographed before the Grammys at a pre telecast event to honor music great Juan Gabriel. No comment by Sosa to the reports.

You decide.

Tom Cruise NOT Dead!

Posted on November 7th, 2009 in Tom Cruise by lalate

Tom Cruise NOT Dead


Tom Cruise is not dead. Tom Cruise death rumors swirl Saturday. Tom Cruise has not died by a heart attack. Cruise however is the latest victim of false celebrity death reports.

As LALATE readers have grown to learn, celebrity fake death reports most usually populate themselves on Sunday afternoons. Until summer 2009, virtually all fake death stories this year surfaced roughly at 3 pm PST on Sundays. The reason? The false reports swirl and can stay active longer on weekends than during weekday business hours.

From Kayne West, to Lil Wayne (multiple times), much of the false death reports of 2009 have struck musicians, most often rappers. The reports do strike pop musicians. But stars of classical music, jazz, and similar non mainstream genres have not been struck.

In fall 2009, the reports detoured out of music and into film stars. Today’s false Tom Cruise reports repeats that trend. Moreover, in later months this year, the use of foreign hotel stories grew - death in distant cities and unknown hotels. The net had grown suspect by midyear of the repeated celebrity death by train crash - considering most rappers tour by bus or plane, not by train.

Tom Cruise is alive. Miley Cyrus is doing well. And Lil Wayne is doing great … as is his new mixtape!

Posted on November 7th, 2009 in Toby Keith by lalate

Wayman Tisdale Toby Keith


Earlier this week, Toby Keith premiered his new song honoring Wayman Tisdale. Wayman Tisdale’s death to cancer is remembered in “Crying for Me (Wayman’s Song)”, a song which remembers the life and spirit of an amazing musician and athlete.

On Monday, Toby Keith premiered Crying for Me on CMT. Tisdale died at age 44, an amazing bassist and dominant force in the world of smooth jazz. If you listen to Los Angeles’ 94.7 the Wave, you’ve heard his music.

Before his death, Wayman Tisdale delivered with Keith the cover of the Barry White classic “Never Gonna Give You Up”. Keith performed at Tisdale’s funeral. Toby tells KOCO “We had so many big plans but every time I tried to say goodbye to hm, he never would let me”.

New Mexico Soccer Elizabeth Lambert

VIDEO! Here again is YouTube video of New Mexico Women’s Soccer Elizabeth Lambert. New Mexico Elizabeth Lambert was suspended from Soccer play by her University Friday.

In a video profiled that day on LALATE, Lambert assaults BYU women’s soccer Kassidy Shumway. Now Lambert is speaking out. Lambert issued the following statement Friday:

“My actions were uncalled for. I let my emotions get the best of me in a heated situation…. This is no way indicative of my character or the soccer player I am.”

CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE VIDEO

New Mexico coach Kit Vela issued the following words:

“Liz is a quality student athlete but in this instance her actions clearly crossed the line of fair play and good sportsmanship.”

The video became the biggest broadcasted video of women’s soccer this month, replaying on ESPN SportsCenter and going viral online. Online reaction included the following remarks:

I? am sure her parents are sooooo proud.

hey …. ever seen american football people get? paralyzed during games

her behavior was criminal. She brings shame to her school and her sport.?

She needs to be charged with assault. I wouldn’t let her? do that to me.

In the end her team lost.

Scott Becker Looking for April!

Posted on November 7th, 2009 in Missing by lalate

Scott Becker Looking for April


“Scott Becker Looking for April” was the opening line of AprilBecker.com, a website that Scott Becker used to find daughter April Becker.

“Scott Becker Looking for April” was what April Becker (now April Becker Antoniou) found five days ago while searching her name online. To her surprise, she had found her dad. Today they are reunited.

Thirty years ago, Dr Becker started searching for his daughter. He had no luck. Private investigators just took his money. Scott Becker spent $40,000 and got no leads. Finally 10 years ago he thought of creating a website in the hope that maybe one day April would search her name online. This week she did.

The “Scott Becker Looking for April” website reads as follows”

“April Joi (Joy) Becker

“Dear April, When you read this, please send an email to: april@aprilbecker.com. I’m your dad and I would really like to talk to ya. When I get your email, I will ask you a couple of questions that only you would know so I can filter out the crazies out there. By the way, You have a lil sister that REALLY wants to talk to you :-) Dad Scott Robert Becker.”

Antoniou’s Facebook page is updated to read, “you think I could have … [searched] that 7 years ago and saved myself the yearly torment. But, it all happens when it happens for a reason. I’m still in shock. I was at the point where I just figured I would never meet him. Glad I was wrong. And glad he was actually still looking, after all this time.”

The two are now reunited after 30 years.

FN Five-seveN Herstal!

Posted on November 7th, 2009 in Military by lalate

FN Five-seveN Herstal


Herstal makes the FN Five-seveN that Maj Nidal Malik Hasan allegedly used at Fort Hood. Critics call it a cop killer, but are they right? The FN Five-seveN (aka the FN 5.7 or FN 57) is a 5.7 MM pistol and comes as the Five-seveN ODG, Five-seveN FDE, and Five-seveN USG.

An AP report Friday states:

“Gun control advocates call it a “cop killer” weapon because that ammo can pierce bulletproof vests, and its use by Mexican drug cartels worries police.”

But is that really the case? The report doesn’t specify what type of ammunition was used. “The most powerful type of ammunition for the FN 5.7 gun is available only to law enforcement and military personnel. …. It is not clear what kind of ammunition was used in the Fort Hood attack.”

Herstal says of the Five-seveN the following:

“The FN Five-seveN® USG single-action autoloading …. sets a new benchmark for …. performance. Firing the low-recoil, high-velocity 5.7×28mm cartridge, the Five-seveN features a textured, ergonomic polymer frame with checkered panels for enhanced grip. Operating controls are placed for easy access with a reversible magazine release and ambidextrous manual safety levers. … Models are available with matte black, olive drab or flat dark earth frames. Sight options include adjustable three dot target sights or fixed C-More Systems™ day or night combat sights. “

So how did Major Nidal Malik Hasan get an FN5.7 before his attack at Fort Hood? The Five Seven was the subject of a U.S. federal ban in 2005 that failed. On Friday, AP reported sources that Hasan bought the FN 5.7 at a store in Kileen, Texas months ago.
