Age 28
The scruffy and handsome Illinois native was an essential relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants’ sweep of the 2012 World Series, and this season was an important factor in keeping the faltering Giants out of last place in their division. The dark and often bearded Kontos shifted to relief pitching in 2009 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, a procedure that repairs ligaments in the pitching arm elbow. A confident and sometimes intimidating presence on the mound, Kontos stirred up trouble for himself and his team this season when he apparently purposefully beaned a batter, was suspended and later demoted to the Giants’ farm team in Fresno.

Thomas Jane in 'Nemesis'

 Thomas Jane (born Thomas Elliott III; February 22, 1969) is an American actor and comic book writer, best known for his roles in Padamati Sandhya Ragam (1987), Boogie Nights (1997), 61* (2001), The Punisher (2004), The Mist (2007), and Hung (2009–2011).


 Nemesis is a 1992 science fiction film directed by Albert Pyun and starring Olivier Gruner and Tim Thomerson. It is the first installment in the Nemesis film series.


 Thomas Jane as Billy


In the near future, Alex Raine (Olivier Gruner) is a disillusioned assassin for the LAPD. During a routine mission, he is attacked by a group freedom fighters known as The Red Army Hammerheads. Nearly killed by the surviving leader, Rosaria (Jennifer Gatti), Alex resists her assertion that he is a mindless robot: "Eighty-six point five percent [of him] is still human."

After months of cybernetic reconstruction and recovery, Alex tracks Rosaria to Old Baja and kills her. His handlers show up, led by his former lover Jared (Marjorie Monaghan), who is an android. Alex decides he has had enough and leaves the LAPD, becoming a freelance hustler and triggerman.


 However, his LAPD bosses are just letting him run free for a while. After he is shot and badly wounded on a job, his old boss, Commissioner Farnsworth (Tim Thomerson), has him kidnapped and brought in for one final assignment. According to Germaine (Nicholas Guest), Jared has stolen vital security information regarding an upcoming international summit and must be stopped before she leaks the plans to the Red Army Hammerheads. Alex is told by Farnsworth that a bomb was implanted in his heart during his latest repairs. He is given three days to find Jared before she meets with the leader of the Hammerheads, Angie-Liv (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa); otherwise, the bomb will detonate and kill him. After flying to the island of Shang-Lu in the Pacific Rim, he is turned loose as bait for Jared.

In reality, the freedom fighters are not battling against government control of people's lives, but for humanity’s future. A newly designed android is infiltrating the higher echelons of human society, copying the minds of powerful leaders into synthetic bodies, Farnsworth among them. Jared threatens their plans, and so Alex's real mission is to smoke her out for the synthetics to destroy.


 Burned out, Alex halfheartedly begins his search, checking into a local hotel. He is soon intercepted by Julian (Deborah Shelton), a cyborg representing Jared. She tells him he is being followed by an LAPD strike team led by Farnsworth, waiting for the opportunity to hit the Hammerheads and Jared.

It turns out that Jared was fatally wounded in her escape from LA, requiring her memory core to be salvaged from her body. After removing a surveillance device implanted in Alex's eye, Julian injects him with a digital scrambler that prevents the bomb from being remotely detonated. She gives him Jared's memory core, enabling him to talk to her. The strike team storms the hotel and Julian sacrifices herself to let Alex escape.


Alex eventually joins up with a local woman, Max Impact (Merle Kennedy) who acts a scout for the Hammerheads while fronting as a tour guide. She is also Rosaria's sister, the woman he killed in Old Baja, but while she wants Alex dead, her loyalty to the freedom fighters comes first. He is brought to the Hammerheads and is convinced by Angie-Liv to join their cause. Unfortunately, the strike team tracks them down, leading to a shootout and chase through the rundown city. Most of the Hammerheads, including Angie-Liv, are killed by Farnsworth's men. Alex saves Max's life, eventually earning her forgiveness. In a confrontation with Farnsworth, Alex shoots him with a grenade launcher, apparently killing him.

Alex and Max arrive at a secret hangar where Yoshiro (Yuji Okumoto), a surviving Hammerhead, is waiting. While launching their escape vehicle, an aerodyne, they are attacked by the cyborg Farnsworth, reduced to his mechanical endoskeleton. Alex defeats him, but suffers grave injuries in the process and discovers just how much of him really is cybernetically enhanced.

Alex brings Jared's core to another Hammerhead compound where they will be able to destroy the labs being used to duplicate people. Unfortunately this means wiping her memory from the core, effectively killing her. Heavily bandaged and temporarily blind, Alex is forced to say goodbye.

Sneaking into LA and hunting down the synthetic agents, Alex corners Germaine on the helipad of LAPD headquarters. Despite Germaine's protests that he cannot hope to kill all the synthetics, Alex shoots him.

Before she died, Jared told Alex that the real Commissioner Farnsworth left him a letter at an old dead drop. In it, his former mentor apologizes for his sometimes rough treatment, reminding him that they all have to do what is right. Alex walks off with his new partner Max, and they joke about how they are going to smuggle his synthetic body through airport customs: "Piece by piece, Max..."

Ricky Martin Will Flirt With You Over Dinner If You Give To His Charity

From: Queeerty
In great news for anyone who’s ever fantasized about having an intimate experience with Ricky Martin, Ricky Martin announced Monday that he will maybe flirt with you in a private and “exceptional” meet-and-greet if you help raise funds for his favorite nonprofit, The Ricky Martin Foundation.

The dreamy 42-year-old singer appears in the romantic PSA below to alert fans to the fantastic new opportunity, which is open to anyone who gives donations to RMF before July 9. He explains that his foundation is working to “build a new school that will enable children to live safe and inspire lives,” and his passion for this cause has driven him to “do anything” to fundraise, which includes meeting you on the set of Australia’s The Voice.

Ricky says he wants to make this one of “the most authentic experiences of your life,” and assures that he’ll even bring a puppy for the two of you to play with. He wants to have a gazing contest with you, roll his R’s for you while you “communicate” and read his journal. He wants at least $10 from you (and everything in sliding increments up to $25,000 are ok too thanks).

Ricky is auctioning off this lucky authentic experience with a random draw on Omaze.com, where you can exchange $10 for one entry, $100 for 15, $1,000 for 25, and so on. For $5,000, Ricky will give you 1,000 entires and 2 VIP concert tickets. For $25,000, he will have dinner with you and four of your closets friends.

One lucky winner will win a flight to Sydney, where they will “join Ricky at the finale of The Voice” and later fly back to a mob of jealous friends. There’s never been a more perfect opportunity to increase your odds of being Ricky Martin’s next boyfriend.

Check out Ricky’s spiel below, and head on over to Omaze to get involved.

 Before we started the shoot, he asked "how raunchy would I like him to get in the video?" Just the kind of straight guy I like. If you want to see what happens, check out Tommy's movie in the members area.
