They must submit proof of this requirement once they are admitted to UCEMA and prior to their arrival to Argentina.
Once the student has completed the application, it will be individually and thoroughly reviewed by our Admissions Committee. Candidates meeting our entrance criteria will receive a Letter of Acceptance to the Universidad del CEMA Exchange Program. Students will be able to use this letter as supporting documentation at their home university, and for immigration purposes. It will also be accompanied by detailed information about how and where process either the residence permits or student visa according to the student's country of birth.
The Argentine Immigrations Authority requires for you to have a valid passport for the entire duration of your studies in Argentina.
Furthermore, it is compulsory for citizens of any country to obtain either a student visa or a residence permit to study in Argentina. Your country of birth will determine which immigration process you should do:
1. If you were born in one of the countries whose natives need a residence permit you will enter Argentina as a tourist and then be required to obtain a residence permit within 30 days of the beginning of classes.
2. If you were born in one of the countries whose natives need a student visa you will be required to obtain a student visa in your country of residence before entering Argentina. You will not be allowed to study under a tourist visa.
Summarizing, foreign students with a tourist visa are not allowed to study in Argentina. According to their country of birth, they are required to apply for either a student visa or residence permit. They must submit a photocopy of their student visa or residence permit as a requirement to study in the UCEMA. Otherwise, it is not possible to proceed with the courses registration.


text: Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Google+ Share on Reddit Share on Pinterest Share on Linkedin Share on Tumblr The death of Cecil the Lion in 2015 cast the world's eyes to a decades-old problem: big game hunting. Since President Teddy Roosevelt documented his exploits tracking and killing big cats, this has been a part of the social consciousness. It, however, is only in recent years—with a swath of attempts to prevent poaching—that the hunting industry has changed. Directors Shaul Schwarz and Christina Clusiau attempt to explain the reasons for this change in their frustratingly necessary documentary Trophy. Looking at the nature of big game hunting from all sides, from those trying to protect and those trying to kill, Trophy should be mandatory viewing in spite of its narrative presentation. Instead of traversing the typical documentary trail by coming down on the "pro" or "con" side of a particular issue, Trophy is subtler. The on-screen text showing the rapid increase in rhino hunting or the decrease in the elephant population are there to explain that trophy hunting is ecologically negative, but the overall tone is surprisingly neutral. The film focuses more on the industries fostering or trying to prevent hunting in general, as opposed to the hunters themselves, which in presenting the story in a neutral way. The neutrality leaves the film feeling narratively haphazard, with a lot of information thrown out rapidly, from the brief definition of what "own/use" is in the world of hunting—the concept of harvesting an animal for meat to dispense to a native population—to the sudden plot turn towards rhino conservationist John Hume's attempt to lift the rhino horn moratorium in South Africa. With so much going on, it's remarkable that the animals never take second position. Trophy, by its very subject, is a documentary that tests your mettle. A deer hunt at the opening is only the start of a near two-hour film where majestic creatures are stalked and shot. By the 30 minute mark, depending on your tolerance, the crack of a gunshot is enough to turn your blood cold. A scene of an elephant breathing its last breaths is particularly excruciating to watch, especially considering the hunter who shot it does so twice and then stands around waiting for it to die because "it's too small" to be a trophy kill. The only irony is that this same hunting enthusiast talks about how much he loves animals, later sobbing over a lion he's shot. Trophy is about the industry, but the few hunters who are brave enough to put themselves in this are there to remind audiences of why the big-game hunting industry thrives to this day. Philip Glass, a Texas sheep breeder, is the face of the hunting industry. He spends thousands of dollars a year to travel to exotic locales, desperate to nab "the big five." For him, hunting is a father-son bonding activity and he opines over the love he feels for the animals he's shot. Yet as he walks the streets of Las Vegas and sees anti-hunting activists he can't help but "explain" all the good hunting does in terms of donations, only to have no proper response when someone asks him why his charitable contribution doesn't just go to charities directly. There are also the typical stereotypes of hunters presented, those who wear their camo and drink beer as they shoot an alligator, loudly screaming "Yeah, motherfucker" before taking a selfie with their kill. But the directors go deeper in to the ambiguities than just asking why someone would spend thousands to shoot something and take a picture with it. The film dives into why hunting, particularly in South Africa, is both a blessing and a curse. John Hume is the talking head entering the grayest waters. He raises rhinos to breed them in the hopes of replenishing their numbers while simultaneously shearing them of their horns every two years to sell for profit. He explains the profit keeps the rhinos in comfort and prevents poaching because, if poachers have their prize, the horn, what's the point? This does nothing to hold back big game hunters who just enjoy the thrill of the kill – the beer-swilling American above probably wouldn't turn down hunting regardless. Hume's "pay to stay" mentality has its fair share of detractors and other voices discuss that the conservation principle via hunting is a fantasy. And yet it's hard to say they're right. A South African wildlife officer details how South African natives are killed yearly by elephants, buffaloes and lions, yet aren't allowed to kill anything unless someone sees an attack. Is conservation coming at the risk of people's lives? Much of the runtime is spent exploring how hunting affects the South African economy, another avenue where the nature of hunting is presented in a morally ambiguous way. For many, hunting provides tourism dollars and is funneled back towards helping an already shaky economy, but it often comes at the expense of wildlife officers acting like gangsters, roughing up people illegally hunting. Trophy takes what is a cut-and-dry topic for many and deconstructs its moral ambiguities. There isn't a right answer for how to stop trophy hunting. There isn't even a proper line to demarcate which animals are worth saving and which aren't. Trophy leaves you to ask these questions and find your own line in the sand.

Happy 2017.
Sh*t wait. I forgot. We've still got one last holiday shortened, low volume, thin taped, algo happy week to go before we usher in what promises to be a nightmarish new year.
Japanese shares were lower overnight on light volume as the yen gained against the dollar. The Japanese government is reportedly pondering the implementation of policies designed to deal with gambling addiction after legalizing casinos in the country. Perhaps they should use Haruhiko Kuroda and the BoJ as guinea pigs for the new initiative given their penchant for buying the dip (a.k.a. gambling) in Japanese equities and ETFs.
(Chart: Bloomberg)
(Charts: Goldman)
Meanwhile, "the Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.4 percent" after falling to "the lowest since October as reports of further curbs on the property market weighed on the sector," Bloomberg notes, adding that "President Xi Jinping told a Communist Party meeting last week he isn't wedded to China's 6.5 percent economic growth objective, according to a person familiar with the situation." Here's a rundown of all the news that's worth printing out of China (once again, via Bloomberg):
- Onshore yuan's 1-month implied volatility climbs to highest in a week, as Chinese President Xi Jinping was said to have stated openness to growth below 6.5%. Markets:
- USD/CNY's 1-month implied volatility climbs 6bps to 5.87%, highest since Dec. 19
- Xi told meeting of Communist Party's financial and economic leading group last week that China doesn't need to meet objective of 6.5% growth if doing so creates too much risk, says person familiar with situation
- CNH +0.09% to 6.9504 per dollar, snapping 2-day loss of 0.4%
- Onshore yuan little changed at 6.9486
- Bloomberg replica of CFETS RMB Index, which tracks yuan vs 13 exchange rates, remains near highest level since July
- PBOC keeps yuan fixing little changed at 6.9459
- SHCOMP -0.9%; SZCOMP -1%; Hong Kong markets closed for holiday
- Xi Said to State Openness to Growth Below 6.5% on Debt Risks
- China to Keep Appropriate Liquidity at Banks: Financial News
- China Inc. Struggling to Sell Bonds Poses Quandary for Economy
- China's CSRC Urges Brokerages to Improve Internal Control
The negative net issuance you see in the chart above implicitly means corporates aren't issuing enough debt to cover this month's repayment schedule.
US markets are of course closed in observance of a holiday that's already over. There is some data this week which might give whoever happens to be at the desk something to trade on. Here's a rundown from Deutsche Bank:
Tomorrow's pending home sales (+0.2% vs. +0.1%) report for November should show modest gains. Note that the November data are unlikely to capture the full impact of the recent sharp increase in long-term interest rates. Fed policymakers will be keeping an eye on how the recent tightening of financial conditions will impact the housing market and the broader economy over the coming months.
Thursday's advance goods trade balance (-$62.0 billion vs. -$62.0 billion) should remain close to last month's figure. This series is part of a more comprehensive Advance Economic Indicators report that the Census Bureau now releases, which includes estimates of wholesale and retail inventories.
Friday's Chicago PMI (58.0 vs. 57.6) for December is one of the more important releases this week. As we have repeatedly emphasized over the past several weeks, forward-looking measures of consumer and business attitudes are of greater importance at the moment given the potential for substantial fiscal stimulus next year. Thus far, the December manufacturing sentiment data have been encouraging. Recall that the Philadelphia Fed manufacturing survey surged 13.9 points in the month to 21.5, which was its highest level since November 2014 (33.6). H
In summary, this week's data should point to improving growth prospects in 2017.
Right. Just hope the effect of all that promised fiscal stimulus goes to growth and not inflation, because if it turns out that adding stimulus to an economy with little or no slack drives up inflation more than it does growth, stocks may struggle to buffer the ongoing sharp repricing of yields.
In any event, enjoy what's left of your holiday vacation and watch out for that $30-$60 billion in selling from defined benefit plans – a block order that will be promptly spotted and frontrun by vacuum tubes eager for something to chew on in an otherwise quiet week.

Three Left-Leaning Groups Also Scrutinized by IRS
All of three?
The Internal Revenue Service, under pressure after admitting it targeted anti-tax Tea Party groups for scrutiny in recent years, also had its eye on at least three Democratic-leaning organizations seeking nonprofit status.
One of those groups, Emerge America, saw its tax-exempt status denied, forcing it to disclose its donors and pay some taxes. None of the Republican groups have said their applications were rejected.
Progress Texas, another of the organizations, faced the same lines of questioning as the Tea Party groups from the same IRS office that issued letters to the Republican-friendly applicants. A third group, Clean Elections Texas, which supports public funding of campaigns, also received IRS inquiries.

The renowned American Conservatory Theater will stage a one-night-only benefit reading of "8" in San Francisco on October 7.
It will be the first time Academy Award-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who wrote the play based on the transcripts of the 2010 Prop. 8 trial, will have an acting role in the production. He'll be joined by legendary activist and AFER Advisory Board Member Cleve Jones (who also appeared at the Los Angeles premiere), Emmy Award-winning actress Holland Taylor (The Practice, Two and a Half Men), actor Luke McFarlane (Brothers & Sisters) and Assemblymember John A. Pérez, who is the first openly-gay speaker of the California Assembly.
For Speaker Pérez, the role of expert witness Gary Segura was a lifetime in the making:
"As someone whose own rights were taken away by Proposition 8, and Proposition 22 before it, I am deeply honored to be participating in a production that brilliantly and vividly captures the critical moments of the trial that led to Judge Vaughn Walker's groundbreaking ruling."
Tickets are on sale now. Proceeds from the reading benefit AFER and LGBTQ youth participating in A.C.T.'s ACTsmart program, which offers free student matinee tickets and theater-based pre- and post-show workshops at no cost to 23 public high schools in the Bay Area (including all 18 San Francisco public high schools) with large populations of underserved, low-income students who otherwise would have little exposure to the arts.
And be sure to check out ACT's limited engagement of The Normal Heart, Larry Kramer's powerful, Tony-winning AIDS drama which wowed Broadway and will soon be turned into a film starring Matt Bomer, Jim Parsons, Mark Ruffalo, Julia Roberts and Alec Baldwin. Tickets to the play are on sale now and the show runs through October 7.

Posted 09.14.2009 in Articles by Christopher
Renting home furniture can be a convenient and affordable option for many consumers. On the surface, furniture rental stores offer comparable services. However, it is important to read the fine print, which may make statements about additional costs that are not immediately apparent. These hidden fees for damages or extra services can easily cost renters a great deal of money, making what is typically cheap furniture rental a very expensive prospect. This article analyzes the services offered by some of the most recognizable furniture rental stores in an attempt to assist consumers to make a financially responsible decision.
Home furniture rentals are available virtually everywhere. Cort Furniture Rental and Brook Furniture Rental provide cheap furniture rental in many areas, while Fashion Furniture Rental focuses on the southern California and Bay Area regions. Each of these rental furniture specialists offers its version of a complete home package. Basically, each one defines these packages as including a living room, dining room and one bedroom. Additional bedrooms may be added for larger homes.
For an additional monthly charge, renters may add other components to these packages. Common extras like televisions, DVD players and television stands are offered by each of these furniture rental stores. Each of these home furniture rentals specialists also provide housewares packages that include bedding, towels and other linen accessories. Kitchen essentials like pots and pans may also be included, as can appliances and artwork.
Cort is able to complete most furniture deliveries within 48 hours of an order. In some areas, they are able to provide delivery within 24 hours when the renter pays an extra fee. Brook charges what they call a "distribution fee" that covers delivery, set-up and pickup. The fee also covers one additional delivery or pickup of rented items. Fashion Furniture Rentals charges a flat $150 transportation fee for delivery, set-up and pickup at the conclusion of the rental term. However, renters who sign an agreement for a six month or longer term will find that Fashion waives this $150 fee.
Cort sets itself apart from the competition by also offering student packages for consumers with valid college identification. These useful and affordable packages equip students for either nine or 12 month rental periods. Student packages provide the basics for studios or one bedroom apartments at rates that are around $99 to $159 per month. For just an additional $55 per month, the student can add up to two additional bedrooms if they should get roommates during the term of their lease. A convenient study package including bookcase, desk and chair can be added for just $30 per month, providing useful workspace for busy students. Neither of the other two rental stores offer special student pricing. However, they do offer affordable rental items that may be suitable for budget-conscious student renters.
Many retailers frequently offer specials and sales to attract consumers, and stores that specialize in home furniture rentals are no exception. Cort features regular Manager's Specials that vary by location and products on hand. If a Cort location is overstocked on a certain furniture grouping, consumers may find these pieces offered at a substantial discount. Brook Furniture Rental keeps pricing simple and predictable by offering a 5% discount on a six month lease term. With a one year term, the discount is 10%, making it easy for renters to know precisely how much they will save by agreeing to a longer term. Fashion sets its sights on a low price guarantee that allows them to match or beat valid offers made by competing companies. Consumers with a quote from a rival furniture rental store may be able to save substantially by showing that quote to Fashion.
While both Cort and Brook allow renters to choose individual items to rent, Fashion appears to only rent furniture as part of packages. At Fashion, renters may select from furniture collections or a complete home package that includes extras like electronics and artwork. Brook offers three levels of furniture collections: Essentials, Lifestyle and Luxury. Consumers get quite a bit of flexibility when they rent from Brook because of the ability to upgrade or downgrade any items to a different category depending upon their desires. The Essentials collection provides the greatest economic value as it starts at just $315 per month for a one year rental. The Luxury line starts at $788 per month for one year.
Cort's pricing per month becomes less expensive with longer rental agreements. For instance, a complete home package that is rented for a single month may cost as much as $2,670. However, if the same package is leased for a period of at least a year, the price is reduced to about $538 per month. Fashion provides a six month complete home package for about $700 on a monthly basis. With a cheap furniture rental from Fashion, consumers may also choose to add on a Customer Protection Program that costs an additional 10% per month of the rental agreement. This program essentially provides insurance against damage and loss during the rental period.
In addition to providing home furniture rentals, Cort also sells items in their showrooms. Items are categorized and prices according to their refurbished condition, and many pieces sell at prices that are about 70% less than retail prices for new furniture.
Fashion Furniture Rental is a great choice for people living in southern California and the Bay Area. Their reasonable pricing and Customer Protection Program make them a smart choice. Cort and Brook have many more locations and can accordingly offer a broader diversity of products. Cort distinguishes itself by offering affordable student packages, while Brook offers convenient and predictable pricing discounts. Any of these cheap furniture rental stores can provide customers with excellent value for their dollar. It's important to understand that the best deals can be made when rental agreements of at least six months or longer are being utilized. With this kind of information, consumers have the power to make a wise financial decision.

"David, the boys and I still live in the house he bought before we were married," Hjördis explained in 1957. "It's a lovely brick house, rather large and rambling. It has a huge green lawn which slopes down to the pool. (David and I always beat the guests at croquet because we know where the bumps are.) The back windows and porches look out on a most heavenly view of trees, green hills and the Pacific Ocean. I never want to live anywhere else."Embed from Getty Images
There is an enduring fascination with David Niven's main residences during his second marriage. This site already has image-laden pages devoted to his chalet in Chateau D'Oex and French Riviera property at Cap Ferrat. It's now time for a look at the first house that David shared with Hjördis, before the couple's move to Europe.
"The Pink House" on Amalfi Drive, Pacific Palisades (just over 15 miles from Hollywood), was built in 1933. The first occupant was writer / screenwriter Vicky Baum, of 'Grand Hotel' fame. David bought the house in 1946, just before the tragic loss of his first wife, Primmie.
In 1960 David sold the property to producer and William Morris Talent Agency head Philip Kellogg (who incidentally died in 2012, one month short of his 100th birthday). It was later owned by actress Whoopi Goldberg. The Pink House came up for sale in 2018, allowing us to place David and Hjördis within their home environment, thanks to a set of rare images from 1948-1949 to compare with the modern-day property shots. For example, the property has three marble fireplaces, all intact from Hjördis' day.
The 2018 property listings described the house as having: "217 feet of frontage and surrounded by lush landscaping and mature trees. The over 7,000-square-foot-home enjoys five en-suite bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and a remodeled kitchen overlooking the swimming pool. The offering also includes a separate guest house."

The most important property of a program is whether it accomplishes the intention of its user.
"Walking on water and developing software from a specification are easy if both are frozen."
PHP Website DevelopmentPHP is a robust and server-side language and is one of the most popular open source programing languages for dynamic web applications.

The good thing about enjoying baking is that there is always an opportunity to bake at any occasion, however big or small.
Tonight we are going to see our friends who are having a baby very soon so I thought it would be nice to take along a cake as well as a present for the little baby to be.
Because I was working in the day I needed to make a cake that would be quick and easy to do and didn't really need any thinking about so i went for my favourite, chocolate cake.
I havent got too many ingredients in my baking store cupboard at the moment but I always have the things to make a chocolate cake. I also always have raspberry jam as a staple so that would go nice as a filling and then to decorate I thought i would make a simple chocolate buttercream on it with grated white chocolate and milk chocolate drops.
It's not a hugely elegant design but it does say, put the kettle on and EAT ME!
Simple Chocolate Cake
1oz cocoa powder
3 medium eggs
6oz butter/margarine
6oz caster sugar
Tsp Vanilla extract
For buttercream
2-3oz margarine or room temperature butter
2-3 tbsp icing sugar
1tbsp cocoa powder
Drop of vanilla essence
Pre-heat the oven to 180c or Gas mark 4 and line two 8″ round cake tins with greaseproof paper.
Put the butter/marg and sugar into a bowl and cream together till it goes a nice pale yellow colour.
Add the vanilla extract and mix in well.
Measure out the flour and cocoa powder and mix together in a separate bowl.
Put one egg and two tablespoons of flour/cocoa powder into the creamed butter/marg mix and gently mix together till it has all combined. Do the same with the next two eggs and flour, until they are mixed in then add the last part of the flour and fold in together.
Try not to over mix but you also don't want any lumps, it should be a nice smooth mix that just drops off the spoon.
Separate into the 2 cake tins and put into the oven for 20-25 minutes.
Make sure you don't open the oven door before 20 minutes as you risk the cake sinking.
Press the top of the cake with your fingers and if it springs back up (or a skewer comes out clean) then it is done, if not then put back in for 4 minutes at a time.
Turn out and leave to cool.
To make the buttercream is easy because you don't have to be very exact with this.
Mix the butter or marg till it is soft in a bowl with the drop of vanilla essence.
Then carefully work in the icing sugar and cocoa powder. Do this a little bit at a time until it is sweet enough for you and is a lovely soft consistency. It will get fluffier the more you mix it.
To assemble the cake, put a small bit of jam onto a cake board and put the base of your cake onto it.
Spread plenty of raspberry jam onto the base (about 2-3 tbsp) and spread evenly but don't go right to the edges as when you put the top on it will squidge it all down a little.
Put the top of the cake on and then cover in a layer of your chocolate buttercream.
You can add your own decorations and make it as fancy or simple as you like. I went for simple and put some milk chocolate chips on and then grated white chocolate all over.
It is now ready to eat and will last a few days if stored in a tin… though cake doesnt last long in our house.

Toni Gonzaga posted a video of her cute son Severiano "Baby Seve" dancing to the tune of his Tita Alex's "Chabbie Chambie Chambie" weird fun dance.
As of posting, the short clip shared is now viral with more than 770k views on Instagram. Baby Seve was all hyped to dance on top of a table while his grandmother, Paul Soriano's mom, was holding hi,; and his aunt Alex was dancing on the other side.
The giggly aunt-and nephew-moment was taken at the Grand Rex cinema in Paris. Alex as always, is very cheerful and bubbly. The video shows that Alex is seemingly trying to keep Baby Seve from getting bored. She was singing the name of her cute little nephew which Tony Gonzaga calls "Chums".
The mirror that was at the back, reflected some local foreigners looking at Alex's amusing dance moves while we can hear Toni Gonzaga giggling at her sister and son's dancing.
Looks like netizens couldn't help but giggle along with the Alex and Baby Seve's hyper dance.

August 2004
I was so hungry.
I rested the left side of my head in my left hand, and propped that arm up on a stack of magazines the regular receptionist left out for "to whom it may concern" while she was on vacation. She knew a temp would need something to do. No snacks were allowed at the front desk.
My head jerked as my fingers pushed through the flesh of my temple, past the surprisingly soft bone, and sunk into my brain. I rustled around and pulled out a pinch of nougat.
I made sure nobody could see me chewing.
You see, it's like this. The reason I cannot see you anymore is that, when we finally speak on the phone after not having spoken for weeks, you do not fill my head with even the slightest of flowery words. I am not asking for an exotic bouquet; I know you are not capable of such arrangements. All I ask for is a daisy.
Your words are as lively as silk flowers. What makes you think any woman – your mom, your sister, I – wants to hear, "I am working on an amicus curiae brief." Even your secretary's bored to tears.
Carl was different from most other boys. Born without any joints and with a spine as rigid as a steel girder, he was thus unable to run and jump the way everyone else could. Heck, he couldn't even sit!
Carl spent all of his waking hours strapped to a special wheeled truck like those the UPS man used to cart boxes in and out of Carl's dad's super-secret garage laboratory. Except the back support was padded and forever tilted back 20 degrees for maximum comfort.
(Carl's dad was making him a new spine out of a Slinky and Silly Putty!)
Lola learned the hard way that little girls really are made of sugar and spice and everything nice.
See, her mom was baking on Saturday afternoon – what she always did when Lola's dad was watching "the game". Trouble was, Dad'd lost a bundle on last week's game, so Snooky and Dirk came and took the car away, leaving them stranded. This meant no shopping. Which meant no sugar or spice!
How was Lola to know that when her mom called her to the kitchen, she'd scrape Lola's pinkies against the grater and directly into the bowl where the flour waited?
When she thinks about him, she likes to remember him the way she wanted him to be. She's nostalgic for things they never did, things that in her memory had the two of them laughing so hard that she would confess, weeks later, over many glasses of wine, that she actually peed a little in her pants. She forgets now, listening to a song she wishes had been "theirs", that she never shared a genuine laugh with him, and the flowers he brought her "just because" and the loving arms he wrapped around her were all just in her mind.
Karen digs her stubby fingernails into the flesh of her shins and scratches with a vigor ordinarily reserved for scrubbing baked-on splatters from the inside of her microwave oven. Once satisfied that the ten ravines of bloody pulp that trail from her knees to her ankles can't get any deeper without reaching shiny bone, she leans back against the bathroom wall and smokes a cigarette while regarding her handiwork.
She's missed a spot up near the knee of the left leg, she notices. So for that she punishes both legs with a big bottle of rubbing alcohol.
There. All better.
Cynthia wonders what her baby brother would look like with Christmas lights instead of the bright blue eyes her mom calls "the most beautiful eyes ever in the history of eyes". Cynthia is not blind. She sees the way her mom's face changes (it lights up!) when she looks from her face to her brother's.
She doesn't want to hurt little Robbie, though, so instead she scoops her own eyes out with a spoon and replaces them with the blue lights from the tree. And in the morning her mom doesn't even blink when Cynthia says, "Ta da!" at the breakfast table.
I'm fantasizing with startling frequency and intensity about corduroy, suede, canvas, and a bit of velvet. I'm lusting over colors called espresso, raisin, moss, and stone. I'm burying my face in the chilly wool (surprisingly non-itchy) jacket of a tall, dark, tousled-haired man as he scoops me up from a pile of crunchy leaves and takes me to his rustic (but beautifully appointed) cabin by a mountain lake, where he places me on a pile of the softest, thickiest, cushiest blankets by an orange-red fire he started with his own rugged (but beautifully maintained) hands.
I must stop visiting jcrew.com.
We only know each other from online. He's been after me to get together for a while. So I have coffee with this guy, have a better time than I thought I would, and when we part he says we should make plans to get together next week for dinner. I go home and send him a jaunty little "thanks" email.
So. More than 30 hours have passed and I have not heard from him. Ordinarily I have to have sex with someone first before he starts ignoring me so soon. What the fuck gives? (I'm just glad I didn't.)
It finally happened. At long last, after all these days and weeks of waiting for it to happen. After all this time of telling myself it never would and not believing my friends when they insisted it would.
It finally happened. At 9:52 tonight, by the warm, dim light thrown my way from a purple-shaded lamp in the corner of this cozy room and the watchful, glaring light of this computer monitor, I realized that I am way too fucking fabulous for the dimwitted, humorless, unappreciative, poorly dressed, insensitive cocksucker I'd been wasting time giving the time of day to.
I occasionally hung out with him at his place some evenings after work. Sometimes we'd fool around (mostly me doing the fooling, fool that I was), and others we'd just watch stupid shows and eat cookies. I preferred the shows and cookies but pretended otherwise.
One day he asked me if I wanted to hold "it" while he peed. I didn't, but I pretended otherwise. So I did.
I was disgusted not just with myself, but with him. And his pee. It reeked of beef and asparagus, two things that smell fantastic in the kitchen but not in the bathroom!
Mr. and Mrs. Chatsworth are so embarrassed. But at the country club, they sit at their corner table and pretend not to notice that everyone else is whispering over their canteloupe halves.
"How can they show their faces?" Mrs. Leland says to her husband.
"I would be too mortified to leave the house," Mr. Saybrook says to his wife.
How could they just sit at their corner table after their son committed suicide by drowning? Didn't they know the proper mode of suicide among the upper class was with a handful of pills and a crystal tumbler of distilled water?
The coolest kids were disappearing from the shelves faster than anyone expected. Sure, they knew the cool kids would be best-sellers, but nobody anticipated universal storewide frenzy – especially since market research showed that so many customers still preferred last month's version of kid.
That version was the smart kids. Kids who usually shocked the buyers by also being cool. But cool in a quieter way. A smarter way. And actually, some buyers realized, in a cooler way.
Still, it was sad for the smart kids who were discarded. Because they were smart enough to realize why they were today's trash.
Mrs. Pinkerton took her four-year-old son to the snappiest salon she could find in the small resort town off the coast of some sea somewhere. She didn't know where they were and didn't really care. All she cared about was mangos and sand, and this place had both in abundance.
The stylist took one look at her son and chuckled in a French accent. "And what," he said, "should I do with this mango, Madam? Slice it open?"
At first Mrs. P was confused. And then she realized: that morning's mango had screamed when she'd bitten into its face.
She's on the leg press again. Every morning after her hour-long Stairmasterpiece, she does the same leg exercises, starting with the horizontal sleigh-style press. And every time she does it, I'm mesmerized.
Her legs are toasted way too tan, but the skin looks so smooth, with a sheen that I like to imagine is butter. And although I'm not a fan of toast and don't like butter, I still imagine myself kneeling by her side, opening my mouth, and leaning forward so as she pushes off with each repetition, her gorgeous legs can give my tongue its salty toasted breakfast.
Laura requires each of her prospective fuckors to pass a test before he is allowed access to any part of her body below her eyebrows.
She takes her castoff lipsticks (they looked much better in the store!) and with the crudest of penmanship, scrawls the crudest of body-part words on her skin with arrows pointing to each part. If the prospective partner says, "What the fuck" or any variant, she tells him to leave. Or, if she's feeling particularly generous, allows him to settle his cock and balls atop her head (as long as they don't extend past her eyebrows).
My sessions with Marina are most unorthodox. I close my eyes as she enters my office. She sits bolt upright on an ottoman, facing away from me. I cross the room on tiptoe and, once at her side, whisper in her ear that she looks fetching in her knickers and ruffled blouse (even if she's wearing a skirt and sweater).
I return to my chair and say nothing for the first 55 minutes of the hour. My pencil scritches my pad. At Minute 56, Marina stands and faces me. I tell her, loudly, that knickers and ruffled blouses are "out".
Jason Kearns has a reputation (well-deserved) for being the kinkiest guy in all of West Tishmanville, Virginia. What with his arsenal of handcuffs (regular and pink fur-lined), Redi-Whip (aerosol), strawberries (fresh), and chocolate syrup (Hershey's), he's the baddest thing to happen to the lusty ladies (tube tops, short shorts) who hang around his family's convenience store since Margie Mackson, the town divorcee (a real "loosie goosie"), who actually bought a dildo from that store in back of K-Mart ... and used it by her lonesome! And it wasn't rumor, either. Jason himself saw her buy it ... that's how kinky he is!
Yesterday, rabid with lust that had her frothing at the mouth and more, she was ready to fuck the first breathing being that came across her path. Even a particularly prickly cactus looked tempting. Still, she resisted.
Today, with an opportunity laid out before her, waiting for the tiniest sign from her to unzip, unbutton, and attack, she finds herself wondering why she'd made this date last night in her frenzy.
"No, let's wait for tomorrow!" she'd said when he'd suggested an immediate meeting. "I'll want you even more then!"
But now? Dry as a bone. And the cactus? Embarrassing.
We are done.
I am lying on his poor excuse for a bed, the flat sheet (which he uses as a bottom sheet) draped across my clothesless body in what I hope is a casual configuration. I don't want him to know I'm not comfortable lying next to him like this after the (f)act.
He is dressed already and eating a sandwich. He is eating it loudly, without grace. I cringe: to think that's probably what he sounded like when he was snacking on me moments ago. But I don't know, because I'd been too busy fake-moaning to notice.
The one who thinks he knows me the most knows the least. He thinks he knows me the best but doesn't know my worst. While it is indeed true that with him I feel free to act a certain way and to "be myself", the self I reveal to him is not even a fraction of what I am.
He knows nothing of the basest part of me and nothing of the most glorious. He knows the middlest of the middles, the grays, and lives with the misconception that he knows the highs, the lows, the black and white.
As he passes my Stairmaster, he looks at me out of the corner of his eye, smiles a smile to rival the Mona Lisa, and places his hand on the edge of the monitor where a red-dotted graph charts my progress. It's a good thing the panel doesn't register my heart rate, because it'd betray the calm I've forced onto my features.
I cannot help but wonder: Did he touch the panel because he couldn't touch me? Was it a substitute for my arm? And doesn't he know he needs no substitute? That I'd be his again without any effort?
Brandon doesn't want you to know what he does when he talks to you on the phone at night. It's not what you'd think, though, so don't worry that when he's asking you how work went that day, he's fiddling with his doo-dangle as he sympathizes about your overflowing filing or your suspicion that Maryanne secretly licked every bagel and donut in Conference Room 3 before her boss's big meeting. Brandon doesn't want you to know that he's putting on lipstick with his toes, just to see how difficult it's going to be after he self-amputates during tomorrow evening's call.
If you exhale, you'll wake the baby. She's finally asleep, after the fussiest day of her 48-day life, and if you wake her, she won't sleep again until Day 72. That's how it works with her, you see. Once every 24 days she sleeps. For the other 23, she wails and flails and screams out her pink lungs while you stand front of her crib with your arms crossed, smoking filterless, tarry cigarettes, exhaling the black cloud directly above her head. So don't exhale. Keep the smoke in your lungs if it kills you. Because the baby's sleeping!
Quite some time has passed since I allowed myself to indulge in romantic reverie involving picture perfect evenings that you and I should share, but that doesn't mean I still don't wish they would come to life. It's just that now I know they won't happen. You have someone. And she's the one who gets to have your hand on the small of her back as she crosses the street. She gets to have you lean in to whisper something in her ear when the subway clatters toward you on the platform. But does she know how lucky she is?
I am jealous of my friend whose new man who cooks her omelettes in a cast iron skillet. He adds ingredients she loves, including cherry tomatoes he grows in his garden. The extra-special ingredient in this omelette is probably a hearty dash of LOVE, which should nauseate me but doesn't.
As for me ... what did I get from the last jackass I dated? Breakfast at a diner where there was nothing on the menu I could eat, and the divine pleasure of watching him scarf down a huge bowl of gray oatmeal like a rabid prisoner fresh from the hoosegaw!
Oh, how very original of you! You want me to present myself to you all done up in a Catwoman costume. As if that fantasy and that get-up wouldn't be lame enough even if the movie hadn't just come out. As if no one else in the history of lust had ever entertained such a daring notion. As if I'd even allow that slimy shiny vinyl sleaze against my skin. As if I'd be willing to rub up against your leg and nuzzle your neck and tell you how "purr-fect" the whole situation is. You've gotta be fucking kidding me.
The Madonna-like blonde is already doing her free-weight routine when I get on the gym floor. As always, her form is suspect, but I don't really care because the results are just perfect.
This chick's thin, not skinny. Toned, not muscular. Lithe. As she raises her well-defined arms above her head, her cotton T-shirt rises up just enough that I can see the gorgeous smooth expanse of her flat, well-defined abdomen. Just enough to reveal the taut skin above the waistband of her black form-fitting yoga pants, where in my fantasies my lips linger where my fingers have just traced.
Marlene always makes a big show of licking the tip of her left index finger and holding it out in front of her face, to show everyone she knows how to test which way the wind blows. No one's ever impressed, because no one really cares which way it blows.
One day she sticks her finger out and then swipes it, still vertical, in a clockwise motion, as if checking for dust. When she pulls her finger back for inspection, she sees a tiny Marlene on the tip, her miniature bouffant swirling above her head, trapped in a teeny Nor'easter!
"I'm so f'in horny," he tells me on MSN Messenger one morning. "I need to get laid."
As if the word "horny" and the term "get laid" weren't hideous enough, he had to go and use "f'in"? Why is it that someone who wants to fuck me can't use the word but thinks "horny" and "get laid" are appealing? What the hell is that?
But even if he had said "fucking", there's no way in fucking hell I'd fuck him now. The hands he's using to type will have to tend to his need. I want to shoot the messenger.
Every time I think I want to see B again, I remind myself of that time in the Chinese restaurant.
I'd drunk tons of tea. When I got back to the table after a trip to the ladies room, I noticed my tea looked a little grainy. Still, I drank it, and immediately tasted bitterness.
I told B, and then looked him straight in the eye and said:
"You put ecstasy in my tea, didn't you?"
"No!" He was insistent.
But so was I.
I got him to admit it.
Fucking bastard. He knew I would have done it willingly!

As Joni Mitchell would say, "It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees."
For those who haven't yet sprinkled their homes with fresh conifer needles or gone the plastic route, it's about time to pack up the kids, some cocoa and a tree-cutting implement, and head into the wilderness. But before you go, a reminder that you need a permit.
West Kootenay residents can download a free, personal-use Christmas tree permit from www.for.gov.bc.ca/DKL/Tenures/Selkirk%20Forest%20District%20Christmas%20Tree%20Permit.pdf, or can pick one up from FrontCounter BC Castlegar (845 Columbia Ave.). The permits are valid until Dec. 25 and must be kept on your person while you cut and transport the tree.
Once you have your permit, it's important to know that you can only cut down trees located on Crown Lands, like power line right-of-ways, road right-of-ways, and open unfenced Range land.
Trees can not be cut from private land or other areas reserved for a special use, from Woodlot License or Community Forest Agreement areas, provincial or national parks, research areas, areas within 50 meters of any stream, or forest plantations in previously harvested areas.
Mark MacAulay, silviculturist at ATCO Wood Products, says he finds it particularly frustrating when he finds that people have gone into reforested areas to cut down their Christmas trees. He encourages people to cut down trees on power line right-of-ways, since they are deliberately kept short.
Asked where specifically in the Castlegar area residents are allowed to cut trees, a media spokesperson from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said, "ministry staff can't recommend particular spots or areas." There is, however, a government application called iMapBC (www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/governments/about-the-bc-government/databc/geographic-data-and-services/imapbc) that can be used to highlight Crown rights of way.
The ministry reminds tree cutters to leave the house prepared with ropes, gloves, tools, tire chains, a first aid kit, a mobile phone and warm clothing, and to make sure you've found the right tree, as some permits specify only one tree can be cut.

In what amounts to editorial control over user content – and a donation in kind to the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate – Facebook says it will delete content from Infowars.com shared by users unless the users themselves are "explicitly condemning Infowars."
Downloadable Version: Please Spread Far and Wide:
Alex Jones Responds to Facebook Banning Infowars – And His Name! https://t.co/d4sWrZnTLY
— Kris Blough #CitizenMedia #PatriotRevolution (@stopglobalism1) May 2, 2019
According to an article by the Atlantic:
Infowars is subject to the strictest ban. Facebook and Instagram will remove any content containing Infowars videos, radio segments, or articles (unless the post is explicitly condemning the content), and Facebook will also remove any groups set up to share Infowars content and events promoting any of the banned extremist figures, according to a company spokesperson.
This runs contrary to the special legal protections Facebook enjoys under Section 230 of the Communications Act which grants the site legal immunity for user-generated content as long as Facebook acts as a neutral platform and not as a publisher.
Social Media Trying to Politically Isolate President Trump Ahead of 2020 by Chilling Independent Speech
It also shows the next phase Facebook is launching to chill independent speech, particularly if it's not left-leaning, because ostensibly other voices will eventually suffer the same fate, such as mainstream conservatives which back President Trump's re-election.
For example, will Tucker Carlson be next?
From @JackPosobiec pic.twitter.com/h20k4s9viM
— Rob Dew (@DewsNewz) May 2, 2019
This unparalleled censorship by Facebook, which reeks of desperation, likely serves as a way for social media to hinder the president's re-election chances by stifling speech supportive of the Trump agenda going into 2020, which is conceivable given that the current Democratic frontrunner, Joe Biden, isn't exactly a rockstar candidate.
It's also likely backlash against the Mueller probe turning out to be a complete dud, although that really has nothing to do with Infowars; for one thing, the Mueller probe was based on legally shaky ground, according to Attorney General William Barr, who had issues with Mueller's interpretation of an obstruction-of-justice statute at the core of the probe.
"When the June 2018 Barr memorandum [on the statue] became public in December, many Democrats tried to weaponize it against him. But because Barr's memo was specific to a particular statute, and was perfectly defensible legal analysis, it was hard for the Democrats to get any traction," according to HumanEvents.com. "In hindsight, however, it's clear that Barr was the assassin Democrats feared. Within six weeks of his confirmation, the Mueller probe was over."
"When Mueller equivocated on obstruction in his report, Barr affirmatively determined that there was no viable obstruction charge. In a twist, Barr didn't rely on a narrow reading of § 1512(c)(2); instead, he exploited the malleability of Mueller's theory and determined that Trump lacked the requisite intent to commit obstruction."
In short, Democrats looking to remove President Trump from office put too many eggs into the Russiagate basket, so when that didn't work out, it seems the next move is to continue banning conservative speech on social media in an attempt to politically isolate President Trump prior to the 2020 election.

Hey Junky,
Awright, so, le's do da dance again shall we? I got alla music fo' ya, an' I think yer gonna line what I got dis week! I gotcha some special, tasty bits o' SWAG fo' ya that I think'll turn'at lil chippy inta a full-blown habit!
Firs' I gotcha da piece'atchu c'n get mos' anywhere, I gotcha da new OFF! tune, "Cracked." Remember las' week're somethin' when I said "Gee, that band must be getting comfortable or something, because this is the longest song they've ever written"? Well, they fixed that; the second song thit has falen through the cracks I nabbed, "Cracked," is only fifty-three seconds long! 'At's not da shortes' numba they ever did ('At'd be "Full Of Shit at thirty-four seconds), but not far off (heh.) annit's pretty awesome! Go check'at out, ann'en come back'ere an' read some more.
I'm waitin', don' be long.
Ya done?
Aright, afta dat an' onn'e otha side o' da coin, I nabbedjaa new YACHT tune fer contrast, jus' cuz I could. Dis new one's pretty friggin' good, an' i's guaranteed ta get a few o' you junkies' dance on but, jus' ta show ya where da connection between OFF! an' Yacht c'n be, I scored ya a primo new tune by Gossip. Now, whenn'is band started about ten years're so ago, they didn'soun' like'ey do now. When'ey started, ol' fi'dollar Billy loved 'em thought they were great (he'll tell'is story ta anybody who'll listen, 'at's how I know), dirty shirt rock n' roll band, wit' a singer (Beth Ditto) thit regularly got nekkid on stage whenn'a band wis playin'. Now though, they soun' like the Bee Gees, ann'ey're gettin' a whole lot more regard fer it. You c'n think whatchu want about it, but maybe dis new tune I scored will help ya make up yer mind.
Afta dat, I used my discernin' taste ta nab some otha new tunes from the likes o' AU, Anathema, Danks, Fixers, Gomez, Kool .D., New Beard, mbilly, Roxette (fer you junkies thit needjer retro fix) anna bunch otha stuff too. So go gettit junky git onna move an' start pilferin'!

"Of the 300 kilometers danger zone, only the 10 kilometers nearest to the warship will not send us into a blackout."
After the systems came back online, Yao Yuan didn't instantly continue their journey to the warship husk. Instead, he parked the shuttle to initiate multiple checks. He wanted to know their distance from the husk and the shuttle's internal conditions.
The examination lasted for 10 minutes, and after it finished, Yao Yuan shared the results with the rest of his party. Certain that everything was back to normal, they continued on to their destination.
The area of blank space came as a surprise, but it was definitely all show. However, as the shuttle came ever closer to the warship husk, Zhang Heng and Chou Yue both felt a tingling sense of incoming danger. Nevertheless, the feeling was not one that screamed of immediate threat… in fact, it was not unlike how they felt prior to the earthquake that shook the meteorite base.
This insidious feeling assaulted Yao Yuan as well.
This didn't raise any alarm for the party though because they had already expected to face some sort of dangerous encounter within the husk. In any case, they could not turn back now because humanity's ultimate survival in space depended on the success of this mission. The technological advancement that could be salvaged from within the warship would provide humanity with a better standing in the great cosmos. As the saying goes, with great risk comes great rewards, so as dangerous as it might be, this was a mission that they must see to its very end!
Yao Yuan was ready to sacrifice a lot to claim the technology within the alien warship, be it a few more decades of the Hope idling within this star system, the death of his partners, or even his own!
This was because all the mentioned sacrifices combined were still less important than the 200 years that humanity would need if they were to enter their fourth industrial revolution the traditional way.
"…4 more kilometers to our destination. Everyone, we are nearing the husk. To be safe, let's all review our mission. First, Zhang Heng, Chou Yue?" With his hand over the controls, Yao Yuan asked of the party.
Zhang Heng replied hurriedly, "I am to sense the presence of immediate danger like the activation of internal defense mechanism."
Chou Yue hesitated. "Mine is to sense threats that are more long-term or drawn out, like the possibility of a self-destructive device in the warship husk."
Yao Yuan nodded before passing the question to his Black Star comrades.
"The Black Stars' mission is to be vigilant for traces of movement while protecting Zhang Heng, Chou Yue, and Ren Tao. Also, we are to set up a safety perimeter during searches and pit stops," Lee said, representing the whole group.
Ying added, "Using my power, I'm responsible for sniping high-armored machinery."
Ebon followed, "I'll provide backline support, but when normal weapons fail, I'm told to use the Gaussian gun."
"As the one responsible for everything explosive, it's my job to demolish locked doors or safe boxes with the smallest damage possible to the surroundings," said Wa Luo.
"As the information relay person, I will keep a constant eye on everyone's internal communicators. In situations where they are jammed, I will help relay information using the multi-frequency communicator to ensure a constant stream of communication," added Xiao Yan.
"As the so-called Thinker, I am tasked to provide solutions if we're stuck in an ambush or trap… But is that really useful?" Ren Tao finished.
Yao Yuan chuckled. "Frankly, I myself can't tell, but it's better to be safe than sorry. I'm not going to let anyone die because we're unprepared.
"Okay, we're officially entering the husk…"
Yao Yuan circled around the husk looking for an entrance. To be fair, since the warship husk was already torn apart, there were plenty of open apertures, but none of them served as a valid landing spot.
"It's no use. Fine, we'll use the mechanical arms to clamp the shuttle to the warship."
A stymied Yao Yuan announced. Guiding the shuttle to one of the biggest apertures, he released the shuttle's mechanical arms when they were about 1 meter away from the warship's edge. The arms latched onto the warship's metallic edge, and after a brief, violent shake, the shuttle stood secured in space.
"Right, I hope everyone's ready for an adventure."
Yao Yuan stood up from the driver's seat. Grabbing the space rifle beside him, he strode to the front of the party. Then the shuttle door opened to reveal a world of darkness. It was as if they were staring into a monster's gaping maw. Undeterred, Yao Yuan stepped out of the shuttle, yelling, "For Glory!"
"Or for death!" echoed the rest of the Black Star Unit as they moved to follow Yao Yuan.
The last to remain were Zhang Heng, Ren Tao, and Chou Yue. Without hesitation, Zhang Heng too jumped out of the shuttle yelling the slogan. Finally, when it was only Ren Tao and Chou Yue, he asked, "So… who first?"
Pouting, Chou Yue mumbled, "That is such a corny slogan. Why did they pick something so cringe-worthy? Even the 'I'll be back' from Terminator 6 might be better, and that's saying a lot… Anyway, you know I don't like to be the last one out, so I'll go first."
Ren Tao smiled, and after Chou Yue got off the shuttle, he whispered under his breath, "I quite like the slogan actually." With that, he too descended the shuttle.
Standing at the entrance to the warship husk, Yao Yuan waited patiently for the whole party to assemble. After everyone was there and the Black Star Unit had their weapons at the ready, Yao Yuan finally switched on his wolf-eye flashlight.
The rays of light revealed a scene of absolute wreckage. There were punctures and holes made by explosions and tearing while metallic baubles and parts of differing sizes littered the general area. However, based on the husk's inner structure, the party still managed to envision its original glory.
In all honesty, there was a hint of disappointment that threaded through the group. This was because they were expecting a scene that was much more high tech and not something that looked so similar to the inner chambers of the Hope. With the exception of the walls and partitions that were thinner than the ones on the Hope, making the space wider, the structure was about 70 to 80 percent similar to the insides of the Hope.
Nevertheless, since there was neither danger nor findings in the entrance area, the group moved deeper into the husk. Wary of the zero-gravity environment, extra cautiousness was present in every step taken. That combined with the lack of lighting and the multiple of obstructions that littered the floor made their progress regretfully slow.
Hugging the walls, the party moved steadily into the husk. About 10 minutes later, they saw lights flickering some distance away before them. This meant that the corridor in front of them still had access to an electrical current!
"…Proceed cautiously. Be mindful of your partner," Yao Yuan advised.
The group then moved carefully to the flickering light source. As they stepped closer to their destination, the amount of damage they could see around them got significantly lesser. The area they were heading toward was making out to be the most fully-preserved space after the devastation. If there was a discovery to find, this would be where they were going to find it.
As they reached the end of a long corridor, a dim, red light suddenly flashed around them. Almost instantaneously, both Zhang Heng and Chou Yue shouted, "Danger! Danger incoming!"
Hearing that, Yao Yuan yelled, "Retreat! Move back to the place where there are no flashing lights!" Turning around, he used the wall to climb his way back to safety.
Others did the same. However, before they could get even 10 meters away, a metallic partition started to drop down further down the corridor they were in, intending to cut off their path.
"Sh*t!" Yao Yuan instinctively grabbed hold of his rifle, but he soon realized that that was futile. All the structural weak points had already crumbled during the previous destruction, and sadly, there was no opening big enough for them to pass through in sight.
Finally, the partition closed with a tremor, and the party had no way left but forward!
The mysterious source of danger was also imminent…

Zephyrs Keep Blue Eagles Grounded in 27-7 Victory
Written by: Brian Ptashinski on Saturday, September 21st, 2013. Follow Brian Ptashinski on Twitter.
Sometimes stats can be deceiving. However that was not the case Friday night as Nazareth was held to only two first downs and just 18 offensive plays by a stifeling Whitehall defense in the first half. The Zephyrs added three scores on offense to open up a 20-0 lead at intermission. Whitehall put it in cruise control in the second half in route to a 27-7 victory over the Blue Eagles in a key LVC matchup.
The "Killer B's", Ryan Bonshak and Saquon Barkley combined for 250 yards rushing and 4 scores in the win. Barkley got the Zephyrs on the board midway through the first quarter on a 51 yard scamper up the middle. The PAT was blocked. Whitehall led 6-0. Bonshak got his shot at the end zone with about five minutes to go until halftime on a 13 yard run on a 4th and 2. Connor Ilgenfritz added the PAT. A 4 yard dive by Barkley just before haltime gave Whitehall a comfortable lead.
"I enjoy playing with this great offense we have under Coach Gilbert." Bonshak stated, who had some special team returns to setup the offense in positive field position. "So many different schemes and it just opens up for us." He added.
The defense was the story of the night for Whitehall. They held Blue Eagle star RB Jordan Gray to only 14 yards on 12 carries and Shabbar Bokhari to 10 yards on 5 carries. Coach Gilbert gave credit to defensive line and linebackers in containing that potent running attack of Nazareth. Danny Roustic and Nick Nejad on the line along with Jake Kerchner at LB in particular.
Whitehall QB Jeff Charles had a decent night throwing the ball he completed 7 passes for 118 yards and no turnovers. On the opposite side Nazareth starting QB Spencer King was substituted for by Justin Albert in second period. "At that point of the game, we as a staff felt that we needed to make a change." Coach Rob Melosky mentioned. Albert gave his team a fine effort completing 11-17 for 132 yards and a TD.
The Zephyrs completed their night of scoring midway through the final quarter on a 4 yard run by Bonshak. Ilgenfritz connected on the PAT to give his team a 27-0 advantage. The shutout that the Whitehall defense wanted so much was not to be on this night as Albert hooked up with Max Wasilewski on a 16 yard TD pass with four minutes left in the contest. Whitehall's Danny Roustic stated, "We wanted to shut them out, we are little disppointed that we didn't."
Whitehall now at 4-0 in LVC play will make the trip to Orefield next week in a crucial matchup with arch rival Parkland who defeated Liberty Friday night.

Professional golfer Tiger Woods once posed for the cover of Men's Fitness shortly after the National Inquirer received a tip in 2007 that Woods
was sleeping with a waitress named Mindy Lawton, the New Yorker reported in an exposè published in the July 3 issue.
The tip was years before Woods' marital infidelities had been revealed to the public.
Men's Fitness and the National Inquirer are both owned by American Media and run by CEO David Pecker, who was profiled in the New Yorker for his ties to President Donald Trump.
Pecker told the New Yorker that Lawton's mother had called the Inquirer and said Woods and Lawton met at a diner near Woods' Orlando home where Lawton worked.
"She said her daughter serves him, and then she has a relationship with Tiger, and she goes out to the parking lot behind there and they have sex together," Pecker said.
Reporters from The National Enquirer hid behind the bushes of the parking lot and captured evidence of Lawton and Woods together.
"The Enquirer guys were behind the bushes and she must have had her period, so she threw the tampon and they grabbed it," Pecker said.
Pecker said that the Men's Fitness editors had asked Woods to appear on the cover of the magazine multiple times. After the Inquirer asked Woods for comment on his tryst with Lawton, Woods' agent called Men's Fitness and agreed to negotiate for a cover story. Woods appeared on the cover in August 2007.
"Pecker was all over me about the negotiations with Tiger's people," Neal Boulton, the editor of the magazine at the time, told the New Yorker. "I allowed myself to get sucked into this situation."
Pecker insisted to the New Yorker that Woods' first cover appearance was not blackmail and that he never intended to run the Lawton story.
The National Enquirer would go on to publish stories about Woods' other affairs in 2009.

The Important Checklist for Employing an SEO Organization
March 7, 2019
From the beginning of the SEO option you must be very careful everything you sign up for. An SEO sales agent may usually do the sale by signing SEO contract with you. You ought to be conscious of terms of services and responsibilities assigned. e.g. who'll build the new web pages, who will create this content of pages, who will improve the net pages and exactly how many pages will undoubtedly be optimised, can you supply the SEO Business the use of the net machine? Payment details, keywords and therefore on. Many SEO organizations will key you by advising you "we will guarantee you #1 position on Google ".This guarantee is probably the most inaccurate of all. If any SEO agency guarantees you #1 position on Bing then you definitely must straight away inquire further simply how much control you have over Google algorithm. They will just know you are maybe not the person to be fooled because you've done your property work. The search engine always improvements algorithm and anytime the best SEO Organization in the country will undoubtedly be caught by this change and your standing will soon be immediately affected. This means it may decline or certain occasion might climb. Bing suggests the business enterprise community never to confidence an SEO company that assure you #1 position as this really is generally suggest the SEO organization know some body inside Bing who offers away Google secrets. The best Guarantee will be such as improve how many visitors. Or escalation in the enquiries.
What After all by lack of efficiency could be the SEO strategy won't supply you with the most readily useful optimization practices by doing only partial of the offered offer as the SEO firm will need to makeup for the cost reduction. The SEO Agency only will guide you this activity is completed and you'll never know so it was completed. e.g. essential url building methods would be to record your internet site on the Aol director this will be charge $USD300.00 an evaluation fee. The SEO agency may just state we've published your website to Yahoo manager and it absolutely was rejected. In summary I suggest one to be careful on what SEO deal you get and hold paying the decided fees. This will stop you from SEO agencies tricks.
Organizations choosing outsourcing their SEO requirements have to be doubly certain they are creating the best choice in choosing a specific SEO agency. A number of queries need to be settled in this respect, and a number of the main problems to be addressed are discussed below.
The kind of url building used by the SEO Organization – It is critical to keep yourself informed of the methods and the techniques that the potential business employs. Make sure that you gain a comprehensive understanding of the grade of the links that the SEO company builds, and the techniques they use to accomplish so. That can help you in choosing if to select a specific company.
The following concern for a business is the risk to its website. Remember, SEO does entail some risk! Fine, the possibilities to be penalized by Bing are slim, but, nonetheless, the likelihood is there. This event could be terrible for a business, and they should consider whether this can be a chance price taking. Their own team could unknowingly put the whole business in danger by subsequent SEO practises which they believed were safe… but usually aren't!
