...Front's website, there is a photograph of a bare-chested man called Mike who resembles Jones and purports to have appeared in Men's Health, Playgirl and a number of gay skin magazines. It also says, "Performers from Broadway shows call upon my services when on tour. If you would like an incredible massage by a handsome, athletic, masculine man, please call me.

Tel Aviv prides itself on its hip, cosmopolitan nightclubs and an easygoing "life is a beach" attitude, while an hour away, in some Jerusalem neighborhoods, ultra-orthodox men still dress in the style of 17th century Poland, with long black waistcoats and beaver-skin hats.

...Second, while those little advertising flyers seem so harmless, they are in fact doing grave damage to the environment. Yes, as a conservative, I had to swear an oath on a Bible printed on the skin of silver-backed gorillas and inked with the blood of several dozen baby sea otters, but a good columnist knows his audience, and many of you think “environmental issues” are important. Think for a second then, Harvard: How many hundreds of trees are ruthlessly pulped in order to print flyers whose sole purpose is to make the roughly thirty...
