Jennifer Garner Drops Violet Affleck Off At School in LA Then Goes to Breakfast With a Friend
Garner's in Charge of Carpool While Ben Curbs His Enthusiasm
by Celebrity 11 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Jennifer Garner escorted Violet to class yesterday and returned to pick her up while chatting on the phone and carrying Seraphina. Jennifer's been enjoying lots of quality time with her daughters, but earlier this week she enjoyed a night out with Valentine's Day costar Jessica Biel. Jessica also admitted her girl crush on Jennifer when she stopped by Conan. While Jen continues to hold down the fort in LA, she could have caught a quick unexpected cameo of her husband Ben Affleck on Curb Your Enthusiasm last Sunday night.
For more photos of Jen out to lunch, just read more.

she seems like a lonely desperate housewife. no offense. katie and jen both small town girls who married up have MORE power, money and fame via their absent spouses and seem to try harder than their mates to keep the relationships alive. hollywood couples - nothing is at it seems. at least they're there for the kids!

As much I love seeing pics of Jen and her beautiful little ones, I can't help but feel sad for her to be constantly hunted down like this when she is just trying to lead a normal life like every citizen has a right under our constitution to do. And to make matters worse, have the unmitigated gall to lie about her husband's whereabouts and conduct.

That clip of Ben was not from last Sunday Pop. Right now Ben has a buzz cut and no beard (see pics of him on set of movie that he just finished filming/directing). That's why he has no tolerance for paps and tabloids because of all the lies printed about him. Shame on you for during like other disgusting media scum. I thought you were a cut above that. Shame. Shame.

UPDATE 1-Metro dispute with Media-Saturn founder escalates
* Media-Saturn founder Kellerhals owns 22 pct blocking minority
* Kellerhals impatient over Media-Saturn CEO replacement
* Metro hoped court ruling would let it sidestep Kellerhals
* Dispute delayed online entry, scuppered China plans (Adds Metro reaction)
By Emma Thomasson and Matthias Inverardi
BERLIN/DUESSELDORF, April 29 (Reuters) - The founder of Europe's biggest electronics chain Media-Saturn launched an attack on Tuesday on the company's majority owners, retailer Metro, escalating a long-running dispute over the management of the chain.
Media-Saturn's billionaire founder, Erich Kellerhals, still owns a stake of close to 22 percent and has regularly disagreed with Metro over its management of the business, most notably delaying the group's move into the fast-growing online market.
"I am deeply concerned about how Media-Saturn is currently being administered by Metro. I deliberately say 'administered' because at present there is no sign of entrepreneurial leadership," Kellerhals said in a statement on Tuesday.
Metro described the comments as "amazing and outlandish" and said Kellerhals' actions were harmful to Media-Saturn, according to a emailed statement from the company's spokesman.
"The emotionally charged allegations of Mr Kellerhals serve no purpose, nor do they correspond to the facts," he said. "He should finally stop damaging Media-Saturn and ultimately all its employees with his inaccurate public accusations."
Metro had hoped a court ruling in December that allows it to sidestep Kellerhals' veto over critical business decisions would enable it to push ahead with its strategy for the unit that accounts for about a third of the group's sales.
But Kellerhals still has a say in top appointments and last week made a call on his own website for applications to replace Media-Saturn Chief Executive Horst Norberg when he retires next year, saying Metro was moving too slowly.
Metro's spokesman said it was "completely unprofessional" to advertise for a new CEO online and appealed to Kellerhals to work together with the group for the future of Media-Saturn.
Metro, Europe's fourth-biggest retailer, which also runs wholesale outlets, hypermarkets and department stores, has been fighting to stop sales sliding in recent years due to online competition and tough economic conditions in its core markets.
It reports results for its second quarter, which runs from January to March, on May 8.
Media-Saturn, the world's second biggest consumer electronics chain after Best Buy, which competes with Dixons Retail and Darty Plc, saw sales fall 0.7 percent to 6.6 billion euros ($9 billion) in the last quarter of 2013, hurt by falling currencies in eastern Europe.
Kellerhals said Media-Saturn, which has almost 1,000 stores in 16 countries employing 64,000 staff, was being run more and more from the centre, with an increasing focus on financial indicators to the detriment of the operating business.
"It is no good if customers face half-empty shelves so you can impress equity analysts with low inventories and great working capital figures. Numbers are important but customers and employees are more important for long-term success," he said.
Kellerhals pulled out of a Media-Saturn joint venture in China in 2012, saying Metro should have expanded there more quickly and aggressively. Metro later scrapped the venture in China altogether, citing tough market competition.
Kellerhals opened the first Media Markt store in Munich in 1979, entering into a partnership in 1988 with the forerunner of the Metro Group, which brought Media Markt together with its Saturn chain and drove a global expansion. ($1 = 0.7223 Euros) (Editing by Keiron Henderson)

A Texas appeals court says gay couples legally married in other states cannot divorce in Texas, where same-sex marriages are banned.
The 5th Texas Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday that a Dallas judge didn't have jurisdiction to grant a divorce to two Dallas men who wed in Massachusetts. The court also says Texas' same-sex marriage ban is constitutional.
The state attorney general had appealed the district judge's October ruling that granted the men a divorce and found the ban violates equal rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution.
The Dallas men married in 2006 in Massachusetts and separated two years later. They're referred to only as J.B. and H.B. in court filings.
An attorney for J.B. says they haven't decided whether to appeal to the Texas Supreme Court.

Is it weird to wish your favorite hooker "happy thanksgiving"?

Are you sitting comfortably? Would you like to be more comfortable?
Fun starts at 4:00pm today (all times are EST), but the official Opening Ceremonies don't occur until 6:00pm; this was described at one point as [Something*Positive creator] Randy [Milholland] screams a lot, but now it's the Randy and Danielle [Corsetto, of Girls With Slingshots] team-up, and those two are always a delight together.
Tomorrow's chock-full o' fun with a pajama party with Jennie Breeden of The Devil's Panties at 1:00pm (Jennie's in Portland so it's still morning for her, shut up), anthology secrets with Spike, Kel, and more at 3:00pm, and sexy, sexy porn with Josh Lesnick and other Slipshiners at 9:00pm. On Sunday there's panels ranging from dealing with day jobs (2:00pm), a Super Art Fight (7:00pm), and closing ceremonies (more of Randy sobbing uncontrollably; 5:00pm). There's lots more that I didn't mention, and it's likely that panelists and panels will continue to be added. Head over to the main ComfyCon page for the latest info.

Sometimes things pop into your head out of nowhere; for example, last night I suddenly and inexplicably found myself wondering, How's that Iron Man thing going? Time, flies, arrow, banana, etc.
Three (maybe four; there was a question about 18 months back about a possible disqualification that doesn't seem to have been resolved) competitors — including Brad Guigar, who doesn't even look like his official competitor portrait anymore¹ — remain in the running, more than five hundred weeks and 2500 updates² after the start of the competition. I'd ordinarily suggest maybe the remaining three (four?) Iron Men declare a mutual satisfaction and walk away splitting the money, but anybody that's managed a minimum of five updates a week with no skips for almost ten years (mark your calendars for the week of 9 February, it's gonna be awesome) isn't going to take split the pot like gentlemen as an option.

¹ Brad, update your competitor's bio picture, please. You're so much more handsome than you were. Then again, a Google Image Search for "similar pictures" lists a portrait of Jack Kirby as the first match so maybe just keep it? Then again, when you search for "Brad Guigar on GIS, you don't see that Kirbyesque bit, but you do see pictures like this, to which I can only say Yowza.

The hotel I'm at has an in-room heating system that sounds like a lawn mower having a tonic-clonic seizure when it cycles off, so I'm short a couple hours of sleep right now. Nevertheless, I have found Things, Things that are worth celebrating today.
It's wonderful watching the art improve — particularly the staging of elements within panels and the expressiveness of the bodies of characters (Morgan-Mar could never have managed the sneaky-sneaky posture in this strip even two months ago), and I hope (as I've expressed to him via email) that when he reaches the end of the 79 episodes of classic Trek, he continues with some particularly stinkeroo episodes of later series. I believe that Planet of the Joggers should do nicely.

When I think of the spirit of raw entrepreneurship in comics — that do whatever it takes to make it scrappiness — I think of two people who take very nearly opposite approaches. Today, we'll be talking about Spike¹; she's the master of logistics, wrangling ever-growing numbers of creators onto her anthologies, setting deadlines, making arrangements for projects sometimes a year or more in advance, and doing it all for the absolute minimum cost and maximum return spread as widely as possible². She knows how to do things in a frugal fashion, and having sufficiently shared that advice with the world, she's now giving it away for free, so she's a damn philanthropist as well.
Did I mention that today is Spike's birthday? And that in celebration, she's giving all of us a present? Yesterday she launched her latest Kickstarter, for the sequel to Poorcraft, dedicated to the notion of traveling on the cheap. Poorcraft: Wish You Were Here, years in the making, is once again illustrated by Diana Nock, and written by perhaps the most intrepid wanderer that comics has ever known, Ryan Estrada³. He's been everywhere, man. In other words, she's chosen the two best people to work on this project, and it deserves your support.
As of this writing, we're at just about 24 hours since launch, and close enough to 40% of the US$15,000 goal as makes no difference. More importantly, the nearly 400 backers are overwhelmingly pledging at the low reward levels (US$500 tier [cover cameo]: 1; US$250 tier [interior cameo]: 1; US$150 tier [special thanks]: 0; US$25 tier [retailers only, five hard copies]: 1; US$18 and under tiers [various combos of hard and soft copies, possibly including the first Poorcraft]: 369), so while this will not be a record-setting pledge total, it's going to be a project with mass support (or it won't be a project at all). Go wish Spike a happy birthday, and snag yourself a copy of Poorcraft: Wish You Were Here.

This will be enough time that it will take to become free of debt all you need to do is visit the online site with the money lender you happen to be thinking about looking for a loan.

² Want to quantify it?

³ It is perhaps worth noting here that I first met Ryan the night before he walked out of San Diego Comic Con and across the border into Mexico, to start a commune dedicated to cartooning. That was more than seven years ago and he's never stopped moving for very long since (although getting married seems to have rooted him to one spot for the past couple of years; then again, it's in South Korea, a country that features a language that I don't believe he knew how to speak before showing up).]]>
Nothing but people who are making the comics industry great today; it's a good time to be a reader.
This page has mentioned the New York Times Best Sellers List for paperback graphic novels more than once in recent weeks; we noted the debut of Sisters by Raina Telgemeier and Amulet book six by Kazu Kibuishi on the list, approximately three months back. We also observed with some glee the occasion of Kibuishi and Telgemeier making up a full 50% of the list all by their lonesomes two weeks ago; that phenomenon is still in effect, as Sisters, Amulet book six, Smile, Drama, and Amulet book one are all still on the latest iteration of the NYTBSL.
What's different is the relative positioning of the books.
Specifically, Raina Telgemeier holds the #1, #2, and #3 spots on the 23 November list, released yesterday, ahead of obscure books like The Walking Dead and Persepolis. I don't believe that this feat has ever been achieved by any single author on any portion of the NYTBSL, much less for books with a cumulative 207 weeks of bestsellerdom. Which just leads me to one question — with some three dozen comics-based movies on the release schedule in the next five years, who is going to be first studio exec to be smart enough to drive a dump truck full of money up to Astoria and the front stoop of Ms Telgemeier?

For those of you not blessed with encyclopedic recall of Fleen necessary to remember exactly what was written back on 2 January 2014, $25,196,670 is the total raised by Child's Play in the first ten years of its existence. Well, ten calendar years, more or less, but eleven annual campaigns; regardless, it's a big damn number.
And it's getting bigger by the moment. Child's Play runs year-round these days, but I always think of it starting on the first of November (despite the fact that the first Child's Play started closer to Thanksgiving), and since then the total is up another US$170,000 or so. Things will really kick in around the time of the annual dinner/auction on 4 December. I know that I say this every year, but I'm wondering what the heck could be done for this year's campaign to exceed last year's US$7.6 million, but they've managed somehow or another each year.
I actually have a way to juice the totals, but it will require the good-faith efforts of a lot of people. What you do it set up a jar, and every time somebody you know sincerely complains about SJWs or feminazis ruining gaming or insists that's it's all really about ethics in gaming journalism, make them put a dollar in the jar. Count the money on, let's say 23 December, and write a check or PayPal the amount collected to Child's Play. Given that Child's Play started as a mechanism to convince the world that self-identified gamers were not human garbage, it would be sort of appropriate.

Two Kickstarter stories bookending the creative process coming up; but first, something to do with your hands. I maybe should have mentioned this yesterday, but this has "weekend project" written all over it: courtesy of Adam Whittier at The Nib, a set of plans for a DIY portable drafting table that will cost you an hour or two, a trip to a hardware store, and the price of two Chipotle burritos. Get building, then get drawing.
I'll be very interested to see how the game plays, though, as there's a good deal of difference between an RPG and, say, running triage drills². It appears that the physical production is the only step left, which means that Logan and DTD (hopefully) are able to pay out whatever they raise to their vendors between 12 December (when the campaign closes) and 31 December (when unspent money plays merry hell with their FY 2014 taxes).
It's got a recurring set of short on the theme of bugs and humans swapping roles, two extended pieces (both dealing vaguely with extended struggles ending in last minute head-screwing of dudes with goatees), and a couple of briefer pieces. Oh and butts. Hell of butts.
On the creative side, all hands were on deck, as Rob DenBleyker and Dave McElfatrick split directing duties, Kris Wilson busied himself with sound editing, everybody split writing duties, and lots of people got in on voice acting. Matt Melvin may have separated from C&H a few months back, but he worked on the show and is credited as both a creator, and for the story on the first long piece, "Ultrasoldier". Per the Kickstarter's stretch goals, expect to see ten more episodes of the show, along with weekly shorts.

I don't know if you noticed, but today humans from the planet Earth (specifically, the European Space Agency) landed a probe the size of a refrigerator on a comet, ten years and literal billions of kilometers after it was launched. In terms of sheer audaciousness, this may out-do landing a semi-autonomous rover the size of an SUV on Mars via rocket-powered sky-crane, in that it's much harder to miss Mars than a lump of rock the size of Midtown Manhattan in the inky void of space.
Not that hitting Mars is easy, mind you, but at least we've done that before. Seriously, look at the course the Rosetta probe took over a decade — somebody had to do the math to figure that path out. Somebody had to figure out how to pack the Philae lander into Rosetta, and program in all the details for landing ahead of time, because human assistance isn't possible — comet 67P is so far away, radio signals take 28 minutes to travel the distance.
Naturally, this is the sort of thing that calls out for technical explanations and details, and no matter how fancy the graphics and explanations, such approaches only make the technological achievement more distant. It's so improbable, so detailed, so complicated that you can't wrap your mind around it. That's where we lose the sense of pride, mentally file it away as very complex and of little direct bearing on my life and end up forgetting how very, very impressive this is. It needs to be just a little smaller, a little more intimate.
So I guess it's a good thing that we have Randall Munroe, whose update today has (as of this writing) featured 136 frames, updated whenever something significant has happened. Rosetta and Philae aren't just blocks of circuits and rockets, they're worried and brave and wheee! and those of us back on Earth are nervous and anxious and AAAAAAAAA. Oh, and there are whales, because if there are harpoons there have to be whales.
Thanks to Munroe for giving Rosetta and Philae their voices, for making the entire thing a little more personal and comprehensible. It's a proud day for us all: ESA, probe, lander, whales, and everybody back on Earth.

Merkel says situation is now more complicated in eastern Ukraine
BERLIN, July 18
BERLIN, July 18 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Friday the situation in eastern Ukraine had become more complicated even though pro-Russian separatists now controlled less territory than they had done previously.
"You have to see that the area that has been taken by the separatists at the moment has become smaller and the number of people who are suffering under them has got smaller, but where they are the situation has generally become harder at the moment than it was," she said at a news conference in Berlin.

Ohio State's "Teddy Bear Toss" For Charity = Awesome
This weekend, the ice at the Value City Arena will be covered with more than blood, sweat, and tears. Ohio State's Saturday night contest against Notre Dame will mark the team's third annual Teddy Bear Toss.
When the puck drops at 7:07 on February 2nd, fans will wait in anticipation for the end of the second period. At the start of the second intermission, fans will toss fluffy bears from their seats to the ice. Arena workers will then collect the bears and prepare them to be taken to a local Ronald McDonald House for Valentine's Day.
The fan experience crew at Ohio State has run this promotion for a couple of years and has reported a steady increase in participation from the Scarlet & Gray faithful. Last year, Buckeye hockey players delivered more than 800 bears to the Ronald McDonald House.
New bears can be either brought to the game wrapped in plastic bags or purchased in the arena concourse before the game. The team asks only that the bear is unused and soft enough not to injure any innocent bystanders (ahem, Fighting Irish fans) who might be in the line of fire.
Traditionally, fans have tossed bears onto the ice after Ohio State's first goal of the evening. This year's change has probably more to do with preserving the speed of the game than quelling the Buckeyes fear that the visitors might post a shutout on them, but you can make your own conclusions.
Throwing the bears during the second intermission instead of after the Buckeyes' first goal does strip fans of mounting anticipation, but Ohio State's decision to change the process is smart considering it lessens the likelihood of fans engaging in a Teddy Bear Toss atrocity: premature chucking.
Earlier this season, the Calgary Hitmen of the Western Hockey League hosted its 18th annual Teddy Bear Toss and saw more than 20,000 bears hit the ice. Below is the video of the Hitmen's impressive feat:
And here is the video from OSU's Inaugural Toss:

Sino Gas' Long-Term Perspective Puts It on Natural Gas Industry's Leading Edge 0 commentsOct 21, 2010 4:29 PM | about stocks: SGASChina's surge in energy consumption over the past few years has turned the country into the world's largest energy consumer, surpassing the U.S. well ahead of schedule. However, double digit consumption growth has also created one of the biggest source of greenhouse gases, putting China in a position of mounting pressure from the international community to reduce its pollution levels and energy use.
While the PRC government is reluctant to adopt binding restrictions on its energy use, it has pledged to make its consumption more energy-efficient and has put a strong emphasis on the development of alternatives to fossil fuels as a growing proportion of its total energy use.
Ten years ago, China consumed only half the amount of energy of the United States.
The combination of China's increasing energy consumption and greater emphasis on clean energy resources are the key success drivers for energy-producing companies in China. The PRC government is forcing energy producers to move away from polluting energy sources such as oil and gasoline and move toward cleaner sources such as natural gas, solar, and wind energy.
Currently, natural gas makes up approximately 4% of the total market share in energy production, but that share is expected to increase to approximately 7% by 2015.
Consumption of natural gas is forecasted to quadruple over the next ten years as China's cities expand and the government continues to support the natural gas industry. Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. (OCTBB: SGAS), a natural gas producer in China, has taken advantage of the projected demand increase for natural gas through strategic placement of its natural gas pipelines. SGAS offers a large percentage of its product to cities smaller than 300,000 that are experiencing rapid urbanization. By investing in the initial pipeline infrastructure of small, developing cities (Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities), the Company can expand at a faster rate than by focusing exclusively on breaking into Tier-1 markets like Beijing and Shanghai that already have large, established industry players.
With a penetration rate of just over 11% in its addressable market, Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: SGAS) has significant running room for further exposure in both the residential and industrial markets of China's fastest growing cities.
Sino Gas' strategy involves offering emerging cities the resources, capital, and pipelines needed to distribute natural gas. This is an important factor in SGAS' strategic plan due to the fact that these emerging cities lack the capital to add new infrastructure. In return, the Company can obtain local monopoly agreements for up to 30 years from the municipal governments in many of its markets. Although these contracts are relatively common in China's natural gas industry, SGAS' early entry in these underdeveloped markets gives it a natural advantage over its competitors, who may attempt to expand into the same fast-growing provinces later in the game.
The PRC government's resolve to increase the country's reliance on clean energy sources coupled with the huge opportunity to increase natural gas penetration (only about a quarter of China's citizens have access to natural gas, compared with 70-80% in most developed nations) providing attractive long-term opportunities both for SGAS and for its investors.

How to keep your garden critter-free: The Real Dirt
Coping with critters is the No. 1 problem facing urban gardeners nowadays, writes Sonia Day. Do you have a crazy critter story? Leave a comment or send an email to email@example.com
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Coping with critters. It's the No. 1 problem facing urban gardeners nowadays.
When I give talks on gardening, people no longer quiz me on pruning clematis or the humane way to kill slugs. Instead, the burning question on everyone's lips is always the same.
How do I get rid of squirrels? Or raccoons. Or skunks. Or rabbits. Or, increasingly, deer.
And the brutal truth is, folks, we can't. They're here to stay.
• Squirrels: Don't add bonemeal when planting tulips. It attracts the bushy-tails. Try human hair scattered about, wrapping bulbs in wire netting, bamboo skewers stuck in the soil, interplanting with garlic and a smelly bulb called fritillaria imperialis, and smoothing the area out when you've finished planting.
The best bet? Skip tulips entirely. Plant daffodils instead, which are poisonous to squirrels.
• Raccoon and skunks: If your lawn is getting ripped up, blame these smart, persistent scavengers. They return to the same place every year looking for grubs that breed the in compacted soil and thatch (the dried up dead layer of grass) that builds up under new growth. Try raking out the old thatch diligently every year, improving your soil, a garden hose equipped with sensors that turn on when the critters come within range. (Be sure to turn the darn thing off during the day or you'll get soaked yourself.)
The best bet? Don't have a lawn, if the yard is small. Create walkways and beds of easy-care shrubs instead.
• Rabbits: A plague in some suburban areas, where farmers' fields once predominated. They particularly love veggie gardens. The only real way to keep them out is to install close mesh chicken wire all around the veggies, sunk into the ground to at least 20cm.
The best bet? Get a dog or cat. Both love chasing rabbits and their mere presence may persuade the cottontails to move elsewhere.
• Deer: Be skeptical about those lists of plants that deer supposedly don't like. When hungry, they'll try anything, then spit it out if they hate the taste. Try prickly shrubs and plants like barberry, holly and roses (deer don't have big teeth, so they stick to easy munchies), plus plants with pungent smells and big raspy leaves, like Geranium maccorrhizum and squash.
The best bet? Euphorbias, particularly E. polychroma (known as common spurge) and E. myrsinites (donkey tail spurge), because they exude an irritating sap. I encircle my shrubs with these and Bambi steers clear.
A final plea: don't use powdered cayenne pepper to deter any critters, however annoying. It can blind them and cause incredible pain. I was shocked to see big pots of this stuff on sale at a garden centre recently. If you can find it, hot pepper wax (sprayed on plants and left to dry) is a more humane method. Products made from the urine of predators (like coyotes) are also a no-no, because the collecting process is inhumane. Animals are housed in cages with wire floors and no bedding.

Mountaineers Near Top 10
MORGANTOWN, W.Va.– The West Virginia women's basketball team moves up to No. 11 in this week's Associated Press poll.
The Mountaineers, who were ranked No. 13 last week, went 2-0 last week in Big 12 play, defeating No. 12/12 Oklahoma State 77-45 at the WVU Coliseum on Wednesday, and taking a 61-40 win from Kansas State in Manhattan, Kan., on Saturday.
With a 24-3 overall record and a 13-2 mark in Big 12 play, WVU has the fewest losses of any team outside the top 10 and has the same or fewer losses than the five teams in front of it.
The last time WVU was ranked in the top 10 was a No. 8 ranking on Jan. 24, 2011. The highest-ever ranking in program history was No. 6 on Dec. 20, 2010 and it remained there for four consecutive weeks. That season, WVU also had five seniors.

Sex with women at Justin Bieber concerts and being paid thousands to fly to Tuscany for romantic trysts: Columbia student reveals secret life as a male escort
A Columbia student has opened up about his experiences as a male gigolo, telling how he regularly has sex with women and mothers for money to help pay the high cost of the Ivy League school.
'On more than a few occasions, I've been paid about $800 to sit in a room and pop balloons while a woman masturbates,' the unidentified co-ed wrote in a tell-all column for a school newspaper.
The student has kept his identity a secret, revealing only that he comes from a large, middle-class Catholic family and fears that his parents might find out about his extracurricular activities.
One of many: The unidentified student claims that he is far from the only person at Columbia University who is working as an escort to help pay the bills
'F*** it, if I can get paid $15,000 to spend a December week lounging on a beach in Tuscany instead of freezing my ass off in New York, I'm going to do it, while I'm still young enough to be hired for that sort of gig,' he wrote in the Columbia Lion.
He claims that he is far from alone in the process- and his girlfriend even works as an escort for the same reasons.
Tuition, fees, books and room and board cost $64,144 at Columbia, making it one of the top five most expensive colleges in the country.
He explained that the escort agency that he works with groups most of their male gigolos into two categories- those who will fulfill a 'boyfriend experience' and those who would fit better with women looking for a 'pornstar experience'.
'I tried (working in the pornstar experience category) for a while, but the (boyfriend experience) money is better, and there's only so many times you can let a woman have at you with a strap-on before it starts feeling a little too gay4pay. (My limit is once.)'
Making money: He said that the average 'date' lasted for four hours and included dinner, sex, a free hotel room and a $1,200 payout
Instead, he is marketed as a 'Prince Charming...because I remind middle-aged women of that popular guy they liked in high school'.
One such date came when a mother hired him to go to a Justin Bieber concert with her and her daughters.
'I think part of it was that she probably wanted that high school experience of f****** in the bathroom during a concert, but somehow it's a little different when "Baby" is what's playing over the speakers and you're at Barclay's, not the Bowery,' he wrote.
Some dates- like the time he was hired to take a teenager to prom after she was dumped that day- are clearly more memorable than others, but he says that the standard situation is a four hour date with sex that nets him dinner, a hotel room, and $1,200.
The newspaper claims to have verified his background and asserts that he is a working escort who is a student at Columbia.
If true, he is just one of a handful of recent cases that have come to light about students turning to prostitution and the sex trade to pay off student loans.
Duke University student Belle Knox gained infamy after she was revealed as a porn star after being outed by another student, but then she went on to embrace the spotlight and stripped at a New York club in March.

News : 'T20 preference could kill Test cricket in Australia'
Features : BBL or the bush
News : Australian contract priorities wrong - Arthur
In Focus: Australian cricket under review
Paul Marsh, the Australian players union chief executive, has defended the weighting of state and Big Bash League contracts for next summer, saying the flush of money for the Twenty20 competition was necessitated by the spending of the same states that are now irked by the changes.
Western Australia's coach, Mickey Arthur, has been the most vocal of many critics against the re-distribution of wealth to reward T20 players with more money upfront in the BBL than Test aspirants in the Sheffield Shield.
However Marsh noted that the states had themselves created the market for T20 contracts by offering exorbitant amounts to overseas players like Chris Gayle, Shahid Afridi and Kieron Pollard in previous editions of the domestic T20 tournament, now expanded with eight city-based teams.
"I'm finding a lot of irony in the states complaining about the BBL payments because they are the ones who've created the market by what they've been paying the overseas players over the past couple of years," Marsh told ESPNcricinfo.
"You hear stories of players being paid up to $175,000 for overseas players. Our position is if you're paying overseas players that, then you've got to be prepared to pay the Australian players who are equivalent players that kind of money as well.
"So you've got to have some sort of salary cap that's going to allow the teams to pay the players. They've been so focused on making the Champions League, the state associations, they are the ones that have pushed cricket in this direction - they put that priority above anything else.
"It's a bit rich of the states to be having a crack at Cricket Australia or the players association for the payment model when they are the ones who pushed this in this direction."
Australia's push towards the BBL has been driven largely by the need for a new revenue stream for the game in Australia, and the roll-out of the new competition is designed to raise the bidding prices for the next round of domestic television rights in two years' time.
"It's been well documented that we're not growing any more or we haven't been growing for a few years under most of the key indicators, whether that be financial, television ratings, attendances or the performances of our national team," said Marsh. "So we've been battling, and what CA are trying to do is create a new revenue stream and that's one of those key indicators but it does lead into a lot of the other things.
"With more money you can put more money into your team, you can pay your players better and therefore attract more players, there's a whole lot of reasons why we think BBL is important."
One misconception Marsh addressed was that Shield players could still earn far more than their base retainers via match payments, whereas BBL contracts were entirely retainer based.
"With the state contracts there's a split of a bit more than 50 per cent goes to the retainers and a bit less goes to the match payments, and that continues," he said. "But the BBL is 100 per cent retainers. So in terms of figures the pool for the Shield and the one day cup is about $13.6 million this year but for BBL it's $9.5 million.
"If you look at the whole pool two thirds are taken up by the domestic competitions, and one third for BBL. That might be slightly out of whack but I don't think that's unreasonable, when you weigh it up - I don't see there's an over-prioritisation of the BBL. It's not just retainers for the Shield and one day domestic players, they will get match payments as well."
In assessing the prospects for players who would prefer to push for Test duty and forsake the T20 pot of gold, Marsh admitted there was less incentive for them.
"It has changed a little bit," he said. "The BBL is going to be very important for Australian cricket going forward, the states have created the market for the players, it is what it is, and one of the challenges will always be to ensure the balance between T20 cricket and the longer forms of the game. We want to protect that as much, if not more, than anyone else in Australian cricket."

Alfredo Aceves to opt out of contract with Orioles
Mar 27, 2014, 10:35 PM EST
According to Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com, right-hander Alfredo Aceves did not make the Orioles and will use the opt-out clause in his minor league contract in order to become a free agent.
Aceves allowed five runs on 11 hits and two walks over 10 innings this spring and struck out six batters. The 31-year-old was in the mix for a bullpen spot, but the Orioles appear likely go with right-hander Evan Meek, another non-roster invitee, assuming they don't make another move before Opening Day.
Aceves had a 2.61 ERA in a swingman role with the Red Sox back in 2011, but he owns a 5.21 ERA in the majors since and has earned a reputation for attitude problems.

I don't get what happened with this guy. He was great with the Yankees. Good performance and a model citizen too. It seemed like they decided to not take a chance on him because he had a couple of injuries. Since he left the Yankees he's pretty much be a train wreck. Not merely poor performance but a bit of the "village idiot" too. Although that last part might have been Bobby V.
I just don't get it

Michael McDonald Talks Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan Connection
Michael McDonald recently kicked off the Dukes of September tour in St. Louis, Missouri alongside Donald Fagen of Steely Dan and Bozz Scaggs. While in his hometown, the singer talked to local radio station Fresh 102.5 about the musical connection him and Fagen have had for forty years.
It's been nearly two decades since the two musicians toured together as The New York Rock & Soul Revue, but McDonald said the guys always planned to reunite. Unfortunately, things always seemed to get in the way.
"We would have probably done it every year since then," he said. "But for everybody having their respective careers to tend and families and stuff, it's hard to do something like this for the joy of it as much as you want. Other things take precedent."
This is the fourth time the three musicians have toured together—the original tour also featured the late blues artist Charles Brown and the folk singer Phoebe Snow, who died last year.
Though it's been awhile since they've played together, McDonald says he's had a musical connection with Fagen since the '70s, thanks to their respective bands.
"I think a lot of it was we were coming up at the same time," he said.
The bands first toured together in 1972, something Michael is still surprised about: "To think that I'm on the same stage as Donald Fagen after all these years…is really kind of a neat thought."
Go here to listen to hear more of Fresh 102.5's interview with McDonald. Check out a full list of tour dates for the Dukes of September tour here.

Quick thinking saves injured driver
Community pulls together for rescueSALLY KIDSON
Relevant offers
A combination of smalltown teamwork, rescue skills and luck saw an injured truck driver saved from the crumpled cab of his vehicle after it crashed into the Buller River.
The dramatic two-hour rescue yesterday involved firefighters, police, St John ambulance staff, river rafting guides, a jet boat operator and the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter.
The Stuart Drummond Transport logging truck ran off State Highway 6 just north of Murchison and plunged 30 metres down a bank into the fast-flowing river about 10am. The injured Nelson driver was trapped in the mangled cab, with water lapping at the door.
One of the first people on the scene was Constable Michael McDougall of Murchison.
"The truck was literally in the middle of the Buller River. We were basically spectators without the right equipment," he said today.
He called Buller Canyon Jet but the owner was in Nelson. "Luckily, he's been training me to drive his jet boat. So that's when I made the call - we needed to get out to [the truck].
"I raced back into town with one of the local farmers, and we grabbed the jet boat and whipped up the river."
The boat was used to ferry firefighters and paramedics to the truck. At the same time, the rafting guides were preparing a raft as a stable platform for the rescuers to use.
McDougall said the outcome could have been a lot worse.
"I don't know how that truck landed [upright]. But if it landed on its side with him being trapped by his legs, he would have drowned. He was a very, very lucky man."
Rafting guide Lisa Cooper said she heard the Murchison fire siren alerting emergency services to the crash as she was driving out of town to catch the Picton ferry, en route to a guiding job in Canada.
"I . . . had all my rafting rescue kit in my car. So I just chucked it on," the Ultimate Descents guide said.
Cooper saw McDougall at the scene and asked if he needed a hand. "He said, 'Yes, please'."
She said she was able to take the driver some medication and spoke with him.
"I got in there and managed to swim across to him and help him out."
Her rescue kit included her drysuit and lifejacket, ropes and other rescue gear.
She then called her fellow guide Simon Cole to come and help, and he bought along a raft and his kit.
"We were able to access it really well and use the raft as a platform to get [the driver] out."
Cooper said the rescue was a team effort and it "was good to know all the local guys".
After being cut from the wreck, the 53-year-old driver was flown to Nelson Hospital in a serious condition with pelvic and head injuries.
This morning he was in a stable condition in intensive care.
McDougall said the accident scene was a bit chaotic but the rescue went very smoothly.
"It's just a smalltown community thing where everyone does what they can, from farmers through to whoever.
"The local fire guys are just Joe Bloggs, and a lot of them are older guys. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have anyone.
"And it just worked out well that someone had trained me to use a jet boat - for that very reason, actually."
Murchison Volunteer Fire Brigade deputy chief fire officer Joe McLellan said he was taken out to the truck in the jet boat.
Firefighters used cutting equipment to free the man from the mangled cab.
He was lifted into the raft and taken to the riverbank, given medication and placed in the rescue helicopter.
McLellan said the driver was conscious and was in quite a bit of pain throughout the ordeal.
"It was very tricky, obviously, because we were in the middle of a flowing river.
"But it worked out. It was very good having the rafting guys there."
Firefighters from the Tapawera Volunteer Fire Brigade also attended the accident.
"It was some really, really good smalltown teamwork there. It was excellent," McLellan said.
An investigation is under way to establish the cause of the crash, which saw one lane of the highway temporarily closed.
A digger was used to remove the wrecked truck from the river yesterday afternoon. It was pulled across to the farm on the opposite side of the river from where it crashed.
