The Vitosium Press November 7th, 2014 Breaking News:Venancias Wins Election!
Whether it was his promise for lowering taxes, solving the energy crisis, an even better economy or helping the veterans, Raymond Nataso Venancias secured his victory over Johnathon Garrett Savori III, otherwise known as John Third. Many congratulated the newly elected 34th Prime Minister of Vitosium but nobody was happier than Venancias himself who is desired to make true on his political promises. Many others, including celebrities, also congratulated the new Prime Minister. While most of them didn't vote for him, they all had hope that he would follow through with his promises. Let's hope that the next four years were as amazing as the last four! The Vitosium Press November 10th, 2014 Breaking News:Will Raymond Venancias Live Up To His Promises?
The election between PCP's Raymond Venancias, NPP's John Third, FEP's Alexandre Araujo, PAP's Alda Andrade and OAP's Albina Montenegro was a rough couple of years to behold. Venancias, a premiere for the Province of Rhoti, ultimately won the election and will have his inauguration in early January. Many will remember his many, many promises but ... will he keep them? The People's Conventional Party has had infamous Prime Ministers such as William Cimantal and Carter Tiabbo. Will the curse of a corrupt PCP Prime Minister be broken? "We deserve free access to the drug market," he said during a July 20th rally. "On top of that, we deserve to not be taxed on anything related to the drug market." His other promises include cutting unspent stimulus, strengthen security around the borders, give disadvantaged communities 60% of spending benefits related to clean energy, expand services for people during and after incarceration, increase the number of high school students taking college-level courses and to restore the death penalty. While much of the country hopes the last one is never seen to fruition, we can hope that some of his other promises are kept. The Vitosium Press January 17th, 2017 Breaking News:Prime Minister Raymond Venancias Insults Veterans
"How can you be so stupid?" he said during a press conference, shocking everybody present. "Tell me, how is it possible to be so stupid?!" The press conference was arranged to discuss the three Vitosian soldiers held captive in an enemy country. However, to the surprise of many, Venancias, somebody who started sharing rather egotistical thoughts recently, decided to make the press conference one to insult the brave souls who defend our beloved country and our allies! "You sign this paper, right, that tells you to kill yourself. You basically sign up to die in wars," he told those present. "I mean wars are great because we can profit off them but who willingly wakes up one day and says 'yeah, I'mma sacrifice myself'." His laughter angered many. Reporter, Michael Soletta, asked Venancias if he is insinuating that soldiers are stupid. "Yeah," he replied. "We celebrate the lives these soldiers once lived but we never think about the decision they made that led them six feet under. You made your bed and now you get to lay in it ... literally." Reporter, Josetta Vera, was passionate with her question. "Sir, how can you even say something so horrific?" she asked him. "Without these soldiers, where would our country be? Your words dishonour every single person that has risked their life for our country." Another reporter, Eric Sundin, chimed in as well. "Our soldiers are worth more than a low life like you!" The Vitosium Press February 7th, 2017 Breaking News:Deceitful Venancias Continues Lying
Raymond Venancias likes to boast about his achievements, imagined and otherwise, that is no secret. The prime minister regularly claims the success of the greatest economy ever and the most decisive victory, as well as other superlatives he’s supposed to have delivered. As many remember last month, Venancias claimed that soldiers were stupid for "signing up to die". A week after that, he bragged to a gathering of military families that he had given them a "raise". Through his first year in office, Venancias repeatedly and falsely characterized the economy during his term as the best in Vitosian history, which can be thanked to him and not his predecessor. Even as the economy began its decline, he still claimed that he has done better than any other Prime Minister. A bizarre lie that Venancias once told in May 2016 was that his father, Chris Venancias, was born in Zamastan. However, Chris had not stepped foot in Zamastan and was born in Sabbert, Entrofeira, Vitosium. In August 2016, Venancias would claim that five different magazines called him "Person of the Year", yet there was no evidence of that happening. These are only a few out of many, many lies that Raymond Venancias has told the public. This has led to many talk show hosts around the world mocking him for his claims. The Vitosium Press March 14th, 2017 Breaking News:Venancias Claims Journalist Killed Many
In a bizarre press conference, Raymond Venancias claimed that a journalist, Telmo Sosa, had killed many politicians and began to list off ten people. He demanded that Sosa, who asked him very direct questions during his last press conference, should be held accountable for the murders of those politicians, as well as treason for "being a hater". In an investigation, it was found that the ten politicians Venancias claimed Sosa killed did not even exist. When asked about this relevation, Venancias had this to say. "Of course they don't exist! He killed them!" For the insane, false accusation, Sosa plans to sue the prime minister for character defamation. John Bastos, a supporter of Venancias and a senator, said that Sosa "probably" killed people because "he is that type of person". He then claimed that "our beloved Prime Minister probably didn't say the names right." The Vitosium Press May 12th, 2017 Breaking News:Prime Minister Gives Death Threat to Talk Show Host
Much like most talk show hosts around the world, Ava Lansa mocked Venancias' way of talking, as well as his growing egotism and self-centered behaviour. However, one such person was not pleased at her portrayal of him on sunday's episode. That person was none other than Raymond Venancias, the current Prime Minister of the country. "DISGRACE!" he commented on social media. "LAZY UNTALENTED AVA LANSA HATES VITOSIUM!" He later commented, "DEATH TO TRAITORS LIKE AVA LANSA! AVA LANSA HATES ME! TREASONOUS AVA LANSAA!" The talk show host, herself, commented on his remarks on social media a couple hours later. "When a powerful person like the Prime Minister of Vitosium says something like 'death to traitors like Ava Lansa', it really scares you. The guy is unstable and should be removed from office!" Senator Eddie Vila had this to say. "Venancias believes that he is above the law but nobody is above the law, let me tell you. The fact that he can say 'Ava Lansa deserves death' is a clear death threat and he should be held accountable!" Senators that support Venancias, however, like John Bastos, Casimiro Borges, Nathan de Lima, Lukas Jost and Joshua Tomao, believe that nobody should speak ill of Venancias, claiming that he has done so much and should be respected. "Lansa should be fired," Tomao commented. The Vitosium Press June 20th, 2017 Breaking News:Prime Minister Wants to Rule for "All Eternity"
In a bizarre, nonsensical rant, Prime Minister Raymond Venancias told supporters and the press that he wants to make the country a monarchy like when King Alexander reigned. He told all those present that, as the "best person to ever rule a country", he should be able to rule "for all eternity". When a reporter, Grace Tanetti, told Venancias that a switch to a monarchy was unlikely, he retorted that anything was possible "because I'm the Prime Minister". He then erupted into a long rant, stating that he was chosen by God and that, as God's "personal disciple", he should be able to rule the land God "gave" him. However, this didn't phase the press, many of whom gave up religion after the infamous Johnville Massacre. Another reporter, Carter Watson, asked how he would achieve such a goal as to make the country a monarchy once more. Venancias states that "the Assembly, the Senate, and the Commons all want me to rule forever so they will make it happen". However, many senators and Commons personnel all rebuted his statement. One such person was senator David Miratti. "The guy is a lunatic," he told The Vitosium Press later that day. "Nobody I know wants him around at all!" Another senator, Rachelle Tabiso, told us, "I would never make a decision that would endanger our country. A decision that makes Venancias a king is disadvantageous at best for the people." The Vitosium Press November 7th, 2018 Breaking News:Vincent Gatostico Announced As New Prime Minister
In a long drawn-out battle between the egotistical Raymond Venancias and the refreshing Vincent Gatostico, it was announced this morning that the votes have been counted and Vincent Gatostico has been chosen as the next prime minister. After four years of lies and a crumbling economy, Gatostico has promised to rebuild said economy back to what it once was. His campaign put out this statement: "I am humbled and honoured to be your next Prime Minister. As promised, I will do what it takes to reverse the effects Venancias put on us. No more shall we be the laughing stock. Once more, shall we prosper!" Venancias, however, is not pleased to say the least. "NOT REAL! ALL DUMBOS FOR GAOTISCO! ELECTION WAS RIGGED!" he said on social media. The citizens of Vitosium, however, have been partying in the streets. Many have been calling for Venancias' arrest now that he is no longer holding a seat of power and is hiding behind the cowardly biased senators that have overlooked his crimes these past four years.

The Vitosium Press August 18th, 2020 Breaking News:Lawyer Who Opposed Serial Killer Found Dead In Warehouse
Marciano Calimoros, a lawyer who gained fame as the prosecutor in last year's case against serial killer, Michael Cobo-Rowley, was found dead this morning in a warehouse in Davenport, Navocalco. Naiaro Comio, a construction worker whose father owns the warehouse, noticed a broken window and investigated the inside only to find Calimoros on the floor with multiple stab wounds. "Michael had many friends who hated Marciano Calimoros. I have no doubt that one of them did this," Comio stated. Arlotto Comio, the man who owns the warehouse, also had something to say. "To think somebody would use my warehouse to commit murder is atrocious," he said. "It makes me think that there must have been some deal going on." Many on social media believe that the culprit must be somebody within Comio's company, Davenport Manufacturing, as Calimoros was notably friends with a few people who worked for the company, including childhood friend, Barbosio Corvas, who can not be found. Sassarta Skyscraper Fire Kills Forty Two, Injures Twenty Five
A large fire, caused by an explosion, left seventy people trapped in a large office skyscraper in Sassarta, Entrofeira, yesterday. The owner of the building, Leon Goodend, is said to be the culprit due to what many in the building are calling a manic episode. Regardless, fourty-two people had died and twenty five are left in critical condition. The other people who were trapped in the building and, thankfully, got out, are calling for the arrest and prosecution of Goodend. Sassarta police have begun their investigation and have yet to find any evidence linking the bombing to Goodend. Carvala Tamley's Public Meltdown Continues
16 year old Vitosian pop sensation, Carvala Tamley, went on a social media rant this morning against her haters and fans. "F*** ALL OF YOU! YOU DON'T GET TO SAY S*** UNLESS YOU ARE AS FAMOUS AS ME! YOU ALL THINK YOU CAN MESS WITH CARVALA JOANNA TAMLEY BUT YOU ARE ALL WRONG!" the first tweet read. The aggressive tweet caught the eyes of many, fans and haters, who were all taken aback, especially as she continued. "I'M FAMOUS, I'M RICH, I'M BEAUTIFUL AND YOU ARE ALL JEALOUS OF MEEEEEEEEE! EVEN MY FANS ARE JEALOUS OF ME! YOU ARE ALL UGLY ON THE INSIDE! ESPECIALLY THE GUY IN THE GREEN SWEATER WHO WANTED A PICTURE WITH ME! I BET YOU WANTED A PICTURE WITH ME TO MAKE YOU LOOK EVEN BETTER!" The second tweet enraged fans who began to view her rant as against them as much as the haters. Many took to social media to voice their anger at what they are calling Carvala's "entitlement" at her newfound fame. "This is what happens when a 16 year old becomes famous. They can't handle it because they are still immature as f***!" Vitosiumpotatoboy184 tweeted. "I believed in you! We all believed in you! Why are you attacking your FANS?!" cried CarvalaTamleyStan183. Tamley has yet to respond to the social media rage. Zia Pera Leaves Bona Fide Housewives of Diarora
Businesswoman and Bona Fide Housewife, Zia Pera, has quit the show after her seventh season. It is speculated that this decision was due to her ongoing drama with fellow Housewife, Lexi de Garo-Booth. Starting in Season 11, Pera began to come in between the marriage of de Garo-Booth and her athlete husband, Callum Booth, leading to many arguments. While de Garo-Booth was not shy of starting arguments with other Housewives, many fans and even those on the show saw what Pera was doing as a betrayal, especially as the two were close friends before this. This continued into Season 12 with Pera trying to spread lies about the couple to cause them to divorce. This lead to the others turning on her, especially in the season finale and the reunion special. In the reunion special, longtime veteran Housewife, Jade Veitao, accused her of just wanting the cameras on her as much as possible. "You know what I think, Zia?" she can be heard saying during the reunion. "You just wanted attention and that's what you got. Everybody's been talking about you because you are a psychopath! Congratulations! Are you happy now?" The fan backlash against Pera has been intense with many sending her death threats. "I don't deserve any of this!" Pera tweeted, which did not help the situation. Eventually, yesterday, she tweeted out her decision to leave the show, leading to many fans cheering.

The Vitosium Press August 25th, 2020 Breaking News:Evidence Surfaces Incriminating Leon Goodend of Building Bombing
Two days ago, police managed to find video evidence of Leon Goodend, the owner of Goodend Tower, placing a bomb in the 10th floor storage room. A journal entry found in Goodend's office revealed his intentions to blow up his own building to kill five certain individuals inside. A raid in Goodend's house revealed many stashes of a variety of drugs, leading to the conclusion that Goodend may have been under the influence of drugs when coming up with the scheme. Yesterday evening, when Goodend was arrested, he confessed to the crime and left a very interesting statement. "The five of them wanted the building for themselves! They tried to buy it off me multiple times in the past two years!" he said. "They think ... thought ... that they ..." He continued in a series of rambles before making a thoery of his own, despite confessing to the crime only an hour before. "It was a clone! I cloned myself to do the deed but I didn't do it. I don't know who cloned me but I think it was Saraivas. He definitely bombed the building." He is referring to the only survivor out of the five targets, Callum Saraivas, an accountant. Early today, he made a statement in response to the crazy rambling. "I've never met Leon and I certainly didn't try to buy the building from him. Only two people I know tried to do that and they both survived," he said. 26th Annual Agiakaia Gambling Tournament Ends With 5 Disqualified
Yesterday, the esteemed gambling tournament held in Agiakaia ended with five gamblers being disqualified over threatening others to quit. The five, Anthony Cliffend, Micalo Palamento, Sara Calotaro, Tacita Fonnas, and William J. Yardley, had cornered and forced eleven participants to quit with the threat of a physical altercation. Now finding themselves in the Final 10 out of 278 particpants, the owner of the event as well as the Laureiza Hotel, Jota Laureiza, formally disqualified the five while the five remaining continued to battle it out, ending in Enrica Bellmore's victory. With regards to the event, Jota Laureiza had this to say. "It shocked me to see that Micalo Palamento was involved in this," she said. "He had participated in the tournament ten times and even won in 2015. As for the others, this was their first time in the tournament and it will, definitely, be their last. I am heavily considering banning Palamento as well." Enrica Bellmore, the winner of the tournament, also commented on what happened. "I barely knew any of them," she commented. "I know Micalo Palamento was a very successful gambler and I have seen Tacita Fonnas a few times before. I mainly knew Anthony Cliffend from his horrible reputation but as for Calotaro and Yardley, I had never heard of them. Sucks what happened but at least they got what they deserve." Country Singer is an Agostinio Apologist
Vitosium will always remember King Alexander Agostinio as a heartless and ruthless leader that killed and manipulated many in his journey for power. Country singer, Amaranth Wellend, however, remembers him as a "passionate" and "patriotic" leader who wanted the best for his country and "loved" his citizens. "We should always remember King Alexander for what he did," she said in an interview with David Timbend on Friday. "He was passionate for his country! He did what he had to do and he should be praised for it. Never again will you see a patriotic gentleman like him." When asked about his tactics to gain the power he held, this is how she responded. "Who really cares?" she asked in response. "The tribes were powerless and needed King Alexander. They should have been more grateful but, instead, they went ahead and killed him." Many on social media voiced their concerns over Wellend's views. "THE TRIEBES SHULD HAVE BEEN GR8FUL?!?!" bananapotassium8465766 tweeted. "F*** THAT HOE!" "Uhhh they killed him because he was a TYRANT!" tweeted naturepies100. "After five albums, she decided that enough was enough and wanted to destroy her career," jackhammerisagoodpunname56 tweeted. Professional Football Player Donates One Million to Charity
Last week, Jayden Zimmermore, a professional football player who has competed in the World Cup, donated one million dollars to the Ciunia Prostate Cancer Research Foundation. Zimmermore, 29, said in an interview that his father died from prostate cancer five years ago so he wanted to do this for him. Many on social media sympathized with him. "THIS is why Zimmermore is my favourite! He is such a good person!" tweeted JZFootballStan1. "Nobody can argue that Jayden f***ing Zimmermore is the best!" BonaFideHousewivesisahorribleshow284 tweeted.

The Vitosium Press September 1st, 2020 Breaking News:Vitosium Legalizes Marijuana
The time has finally come, folks! Marijuana has been legalized in Vitosium! Yesterday, Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico gave the announcement during a press briefing after last week's meeting with the Supreme Court and the Cabinet. While Gatostico reportedly does not smoke marijuana himself, he has recognized the health benefits and made a move to help his citizens out, giving people another reason to choose him over Raymond Venancias any day. Venancias, the previous Prime Minister that put Vitosium into an economic crisis, had this to say. "He's clearly just pandering to the public," he said. "I never pandered and did whatever I could for my country. The man's a colossal failure, honestly." Football player and known marijuana advocate, Mariano Vela, praised the efforts of Gatostico while chastising Venancias. "At least Prime Minister Gatostico has been doing SOMETHING for this country," he stated. "In the span of two years, the economy has been increasing and he has re-introduced free health care. Venancias can't name anything he has done for the country and lies every-time he attempts to do so." When asked about the legalization of marijuana in the country, Vela apologized for his rant and continued. "Vitosium has needed this for so long and we are finally getting it," he told us. "Now we just need to make sure people aren't arrested for it." Vitosians on social media celebrated the news. "IMMA STERT A POT BUSNESS BOIIIIII," obnoxiouswannabe75 excitedly tweeted. "WE DID IT BOIS! The green government lizards caved in and gave us more green!" tweeted ilovethecolourgreen3875. "Got higher than the ceiling this morning and now I'm stuck on the roof. Please help!" a concerned greenalienboi5 tweeted. Bona Fide Housewife Calls For Spin-Off
On Bona Fide Housewives of Aplatta, people will remember current Housewife, Ana-Silva Nouveia, as the eccentric party girl who loves to gossip and start up drama. The former fan favourite spoke to talk show host, David Timbend, about how she wants her own spin off show. "I don't know what you will call it," she said. "Maybe just Ana-Silva. The show will, obviously, focus on my family and fashion line. It'll give viewers a look into my life without my beef with Magalla." Viewers will remember that, for the past four seasons, Nouveia and Magalla Moracoso have gotten into multiple arguments including a now infamous one from the latest season that saw the two women literally yelling at each-other in a restaurant. No words--just pure yelling. Their beef started back in 2017--Season 6--where Nouveia recorded a song with Moracoso, a pop star, only for Nouveia to try and claim all rights to the song. The following year, Moracoso won the rights to the song, leading to an already tense "friendship" shattering completely. "I can confirm that I have been asked to come back for the 2021 season," she told us. "Same with Magalla, unfortunately. That doesn't mean I don't want my own spin off show where it is truly the Ana-Silva show." Grillbob Burntpants Cancelled After 12 Years
Yesterday evening, the official Twitter account for Grillbob Burntpants has announced that VTV will not be picking the show up for another season, ending its run after 12 years. The former children show turned adult show, Grillbob Burntpants, was created by Gilio Bunopasso and premiered back in 2008 to children everywhere. The show starred the titular Grillbob Burntpants along with his friend, Adam Coal, and the now famous internet sensation, Rocky Sands, a literal rock. The cartoon started out innocently enough but, around Season 5--2013--the show became more and more bizarre, eventually becoming infamous for all the wrong reasons. "I don't know where the show went wrong," producer Jack Fonnas told us. "The show just felt so right." "This is my child," roared Gilio Bunopasso in an interview with David Timbend. "My child has now died a painful death!" While the cartoon was rather bizarre, so was the creator of the show as well. Gilio Bunopasso has become a meme on the internet for his reckless stunt and weird ramblings while still showing that he can be a genius at writing. Day Sommerville Hints At 2021 Project
Many know the famous TV producer, Day Sommerville, for her work on many shows as well as creating Faded Dreams and Midnight Game. In an interview with talk show host, Miranda Tabiasso, Sommerville said this statement. "Many people ask me what I am going to work on next," she started. "I have a few ideas of shows I can create." When asked about that, Sommerville replied with this. "Many people love Faded Dreams, which is still going on today," she said. "I would love to make another show but whether that would happen in 2021 is yet to be seen." Sommerville, whose real name is Davina Joanna Rega, has worked on over ten shows at this point since 2003 with many of them lasting for years, including Faded Dreams, a beloved sitcom that began in 2006. We are excited to see what she works on in the future. Pop Star Claims She Is Bored Of Making Pop Music
May Cliffend, a children's TV show actress turned pop star, told us in an interview last night that she is ready to move on from making pop music. "I have two albums," she told us. "I think that is enough. The thought of making more bores me." When asked why, this was her response. "Pop is out. Country is in," she said. "I want to make one country album and then become a famous rock star like my uncle." This "uncle" she is referring to is Michael Bendino, a guitarist for Zaguna Waves. "Let her do what she wants," Bendino said on Twitter. "She's a big girl with big ambitions. Stop telling her what she can and can't do!" Social media, however, was split. "YAAAAS!" istalkcelebrities65 tweeted. "Queen May working on country music is a big step up!" "Stop acting like you're above it all!" tweeted mycomputersuxgivemoney194. "'The thought of making more bores me'. Get off your high horse!"

The Vitosium Press September 8th, 2020 Breaking News:Prime Minister Announces Plan To Maintain Biodiversity
Yesterday, Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico signed the Marine Protection Act, which enables sustainable fishing and other commercial activities. The citizens of Vitosium are now able to enjoy recreational and cultural activities while preserving environmental health and the integrity of marine environments. Prime Minister Gatostico spoke to the press to address destructive practices in essential marine environments, including unsustainable harvesting of marine organisms, heavy tourist traffic, waste dumping, and industrial activities. "Things need to change," he told the press. "The Marine Protection Act will reasonably restrict things like the dumping of waste and industrial activities including oil drilling and refinement". The Sassarta Marine Research Facility applauded Gatostico's move, calling it something that Raymond Venancias, Gatostico's predecessor, would never do. "Vincent knows what the country needs," research associate professor, Dr. Shane Vanisello stated. "This is the move in the right direction and, if we stuck with Venancias, I'm sure he would rather kill the ecosystem than do anything to save it. He did try to destroy the economy after all." Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico also announced the Vitosian Committee for the Preservation of Marine Environments (VCPME) to oversee the protection of critical marine environments. Regarding the press conference, this is what social media had to say. "YAAAAS! Protect the fish or get the F@CK OUT!" tweeted Vitosian indie game developer, SeaLlamaHasTwitter. "Why dose the cometee need such a fecking long name!" Justarebble tweeted. Vitosium is Top 5 For Most Secular
Over the past ten years, Vitosium has established itself as a mostly Atheist country. Now, as of this month, citizens can be pleased that the country is now top 5 in the world for "most secular", meaning "not subject to or bound by religious rule". In 2008, John Patrick Longetti had ordered his cult, "Johnville", to rampage the streets and murder people deemed not worthy of Heaven. The massacre shook the nation as 5820 people were killed that night, leading to Longetti and his 7000 cult members to commit suicide upon his orders. Over the course of the next two years, the citizens turned against religion and, as of 2010, around 80% of the country vowed to never worship anybody to avoid another Johnville massacre. "I lost my cousin in the 2008 massacre," tweeted Big Brother Season 4 winner, Shonee Valino. "I wasn't religious to begin with but she was and they still took her life because she was 'unworthy'." In fact, Valino's cousin was more than just religious. Her cousin, Michelle Valino-Watt, was a pastor at the Saint Michael Presbyterian Church. She was on her way home when she was ambushed by eight Johnville cult members. At this point, only %4 of the country is religious and are respected for that. After all, none of them could rise to the levels of insanity as John Patrick Longetti. Appia Releases Sixth Album
Pop sensation, Appia, whose real name is Apella Sanguinelli, released her sixth album, "Here I Am", three days ago to an enormous fanfare from the country. The 34 year old, who is married to interior designer, Sofia Sarti, told the press that she hopes to inspire the next generation of pop stars with this album. Songs like "Give" and "Hurricane" have led to many to open up about their pasts and thank Appia for the songs in question. "My mom was a fantastic person but the same can't be said about my dad", Appia told the press. "Hurricane tells my story of how my sister and I overcame the trauma received from him and not let it consume us." While many know that Appia's mother is Rachelle Sinato, the inventory of the uplift bra, she has told nothing about her father until the album's release. Famous fashion designer, Rachelle Sinato, had this to say. "All I will say is that their dad's name was Collin," she said. "He contacted me last year and tried to somehow blackmail Apella and Mariella due to how successful they have become. He is just jealous that he can never be in their lives again." Appia's sister and famous fashion designer, Guinelle, whose real name is Mariella Salley, had this to say. "Appia has been a mega inspiration to many people, including myself," she told us. "I'm glad her music and charity foundations made a difference." Cely Maria Announces Retirement
Cely Maria, who is most known as the host of Love Sanctuary and Vitosium's Next Top Model, has announced her retirement. Cely, whose real name is Celina-Marie Talini, began modelling when she was only 16. Nine years later, she had her acting debut as Stacey Chambers in the cult comedy hit, Revenge of the College Dropouts. Her success as a model led some EBTV producers to jumpstart Vitosium's Next Top Model in 2013 with her as the host. Four years later, she was approached again and became the host of Love Sanctuary. While social media has questioned her decision to retire at 42, others feel like she has enough money to retire. "Love Sanctuary won't be the same without her," Season 1 winner, Brandon Ceresy, tweeted. EBTV has already began searching for a new host to replace her with many suspecting Joni Via to take her place. "Joni Via is the obvious answer!" tweeted lovesanctuaryfan28485. "THE BEAUTIFUL AND STUNNING JONI VIA NEEDS TO BE NEW HOST!!!!!" tweeted Jordanhasnolife248. Joni Via is an energetic actress who made her debut in 2012 and has been in over ten movies since then. With her being in everybody's minds, there is a possibility that she could replace Cely Maria as the host of Love Sanctuary. What about Vitosium's Next Top Model? At the moment, nobody knows if the show will even continue without her.

The Vitosium Press September 15th, 2020 Breaking News:Prime Minister Focuses on Ensuring Effectual Recycling
In a press conference yesterday, Prime Minister Keito Gatostico, who had just announced the Marine Protection Act last week, now introduced the Effectual Recycling Act. "Due to a rapid economic growth, a larger volume of waste has been produced," he said. "Promoting and mandating recycling could reduce waste and prevent it from contaminating our ecosystem even further." He went on to say that waste, specifically "recyclable waste", can be safely reprocessed into a material or product that can be reused for a practical purpose such as in manufacturing. He hopes this act can raise awareness of recycling as a method to reuse waste, encourage inhabitants and businesses to use recycling centres to recycle recyclable waste and promote the usage or purchase of items made from recycled materials. Regarding the press conference, this is what social media had to say. "YAAAAS! Protect the environment or get the F@CK OUT!" tweeted Vitosian indie game developer, SeaLlamaHasTwitter. "THIS is what a good Prime Minister looks like," tweeted mystandardsarelow234. "What about te anoying geesew?! how can i thro sit at them if im baned!!! FAKE!!!" tweeted dujeejhdjejrt8534868697. Three Stabbed in Downtown Ovavo
Ovavo police have made an arrest in an apparent random act of violence in the downtown core. Two men and one woman were stabbed in the Bayshore downtown district of Ovavo, Maydover Island. Police Chief Nadia Renetto told the press that it’s just the latest in a series of crimes that have downtown residents nervous. Controversial VidTuber, MaydoverPrinceLord, recorded the attack as Michael Chambers (27), unprovoked, attacked Adam Krevin (32), Mia Cobo (46) and Tobino Paranta (41). However, it was another witness, Cameron Calotaro, who called the cops. Other witnesses joined and managed to subdue Chambers as the police arrived. The youtuber, whose real name is Russell Cotao, refused to hand over the video evidence, claiming that his audience "deserved to see it before the whole country", leading to his arrest for obstruction of justice and the phone being confiscated into police custody. As for the victims, Krevin is in critical condition while Cobo and Paranta are expected to leave the hospital within a week. Diana Krevin, Adam's mother, told the press this morning that he was on his way to his accounting job when the attack happened. She is glad that her son is still alive and hopes that he can be on a speedy recovery. This is what social media had to say. "MPL AND CHAMBERS WORKED TOGETHER! HOW CAN NOBODY SEE THAT?!" tweeted FrickFunk38475. "WHO STABS PEOPLE FOR NO REASON?!" iaskgoodquestions847 tweeted. Gang Leader Pleads Guilty To Lawyer's Murder
In 2019, Marciano Calimoros, an already famous lawyer, gained further fame from prosecuting Michael Cobo-Rowley, who was a serial killer with connections to a couple of gangs. On August 18th, Calimoros was found murdered inside a warehouse owned by Davenport Manufacturing with many speculating that the killer had to have some sort of connection to Cobo-Rowley. Last week, police found that particular connection between him and Snak3s Gang leader, Joey Salvatori, with evidence suggesting that the two were very close. Further evidence then proved that Salvatori was connected to the disappearance of Calimoros and his childhood friend, Barbosio Corvas, leading to his arrest. While in custody, Salvatori confessed to killing Corvas but gave no information regarding his role in Calimoros' murder. Yesterday, in court, Joey Salvatori pleaded guilty this morning in court to five different murders including that of Calimoros. While he had already confessed to Corvas' murder, the presiding judge questioned Salvatori on the other three victims. As revealed by Joey himself, the other three victims were next on Michael Cobo-Rowley's "death list" and Salvatori, himself, wanted to finish the job. Joey Salvatori was sentenced to life in prison. Carvala Tamley Declares "Break From Music"
16 year old Vitosian pop sensation, Carvala Tamley, told her fans on social media this morning that she was taking a break. Tamley had been having a social media meltdown for the past two months, raging against haters and even her fans, leading many to conclude that a 16 year old having fame was too much for her to handle. Tamley seemingly agreed. "DUDES!111!!!11!! ALL YOU GODAM HATTERS AND FAKE FANS DONT DESERVE MEEEE!!!!" she tweeted this morning. "YOU ALL SUCK EVERYTHING! EVEN VEGGIES! YOU ALL SUCK! IM TAKING A BREAK BECAUSE OF YOU ALL! NOW NOBODY GETS A NEW ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!" Just yesterday, Tamley declared that nobody loved her and everybody wanted to use her before attacking the appearances of fans she took a picture with just last week. With social media against her, the pressure was too much. "Carvala is a sweet girl," her mother, Dana Tamley, told the press. "Back when I had her in pageants, she was the sweetest girl you could ever imagine!" When asked about her meltdowns, Dana Tamley responded with this. "My girl is being bullied on social media," she said. "The pageant judges bullied her, the recording studio bullied her, her fans bullied her and even the media is bullying her. She knows all this because I made sure she knew this. She is strong because she has me as a support in her life." As for how long the break will last, neither Carvala nor Dana Tamley commented.

The Vitosium Press September 22nd, 2020 Breaking News:Terrorism in the Skies!
On September 16th, a suicide bomber blew up Air Andaluni Flight 553 while it was en-route to Vongane, Quetana, from Jade Harbor, Zamastan. All 178 people aboard were killed. Kalumaan Al-Babur was identified by the Emmirian State Security Committee as the bomber. Many in Vitosium suspect Al-Fijar, a dangerous terrorist group based in Central Ausiana, specifically Jaginistan, Malvare, and Pekastan. On September 20th, an attempted attack on Omicron Airlines Flight U829 was foiled. The planned bomber, identified as Ahmad Suadya Mumaar, attempted to blow up the plane mid-flight from Amarjel, Durnstaal to Vessalia, Avergnon. Passengers were able to subdue the would-be bomber and he was arrested by Durnstaal's Central Intelligence Bureau upon the plane's emergency landing. Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico had this to say in yesterday's press conference. "Al-Fijar are nothing but cowards," he told the press. "They believe they are doing the right thing but nobody wins when you resort to terrorism!" Super Cat Actress Hopes for Fifth Movie
In 1998, Pala Pinio starred as Ava Tiabra, an anthropomorphic cat accountant, in the now famous Super Cat franchise. Ava Tiabra, who wanted more excitement in her life, was given more than she bargained for when she was inherited the role of Super Cat, kicking off the plot for four movies. In the fourth movie, released in 2019, Ava's daughter, Katie, would be given the role of Super Cat upon her retirement, setting the stage for many more movies to come. Pinio was able to sit down in an interview with Nadia Cina of The Vitosium Press to talk about the franchise's success. I remember when I was twelve watching the very first Super Cat movie. What was your reaction to the concept when you first heard it?When Camla Sosa called me, I was just finishing up my role in Unoriginal Sin. I had worked before with her in Kung-Fu Doggo and was excited to work with her again. I remember her telling me "I wrote a movie based on a cat that is actually a super hero" and was thinking "that is super vague". She told me that Ava, my character, was an ideal role model for children and the message of the story is to not let others stop you from achieving your dreams. I told her that I was in. Were you expecting the movie to be as successful as it was?Camla Sosa directed it. A part of me knew that it was going to be successful after the fanfare to Kung-Fu Doggo two years prior. I wasn't expecting it to be even more successful, though. So, you have just finished Super Cat 2 in 2004. What was that like?I was 23 when I first played Ava Tiabra back in 1998. I didn't expect my legacy to surround the character. When we were done the second movie and it got critical acclaim, it made me happy to see so many people enjoy it. A part of me wanted a third and a fourth and a fifth movie! You are known for your roles in adventure and horror movies. What is it like to be recognized as the voice of THE Ava Tiabra?It is nuts! My mom called me up last week and says that my nephew binge-watched the movies and was like "that sounds like Aunty Paulina". Paulina is my real first name, by the way. I went over to my sister's place and gave him some Super Cat plushies! I didn't tell him that I voiced the character, though. Children have vivid imaginations and I want him to think of Ava as a role model and not just a character voiced by his aunt. So, four movies are done. Do you think the franchise is finished?Absolutely not! I am hoping for a fifth movie, to be honest. Camla hasn't told me anything but I hope she writes the next one soon. Haha! Let's hope that a fifth movie can happen, then! Thank you so much for talking to me, Pala.Of course! Anytime! Thank you for the interview. Susi Oberk is Returning To Bona Fide Housewives Despite Rumours
Ever since Oberk's return to Bona Fide Housewives of Gatovita in 2019, many saw her bring the drama and "spill tea" as she says but no storyline brought more attention on her than the one from the most recent season that saw her marriage to Olympic Skier, Donny Oberk, begin to fail. The season saw the arguments grow more and more frequent until the two had to go to marriage counselling. While the state of their marriage became a big topic throughout the season, the Oberks kept reassuring others that everything was fine. The end of the season left many questioning if Susi would return but, in a surprising twist, Oberk spoke to The Vitosium Press and said that, yes, she will be returning next season. She said that, between the season finale and now, the marriage is back on track and we will be seeing that in Season 8. "Happy for Susi and Donny!" tweeted fellow Bona Fide Housewife star, Giulia Raymond. "YES! I can confirm that they are super happy together now! Stop harassing them!!!" "Susi and I had our differences but I wish her and Donny the best!" tweeted Marcianne Abrilo, a Vitosian actress, as well as another Bona Fide Housewife star. Others on social media are happy for the Oberks. "SUSEE IS MAH FAVE! STAY MARIED! STAY HAPPY!" tweeted iwantsusishair24885. "OMG YAAAAS! STAN SUSI!" susigivesmelife374 tweeted. "You people have no life," tweeted Natano Sanmarina, an author.

The Vitosium Press September 29th, 2020 Breaking News:Mass Shooting In Valomao
Early morning on September 27th, fifteen lives were lost and twenty two others were injured when a masked shooter opened fire on Parancia Street outside Adam's Steakhouse. On security cameras connected to the steakhouse, one can see the shooter, who was dressed in a green parka and blue jeans with an abstract white mask covering his whole head, approach the steakhouse when he turned, pulled out a pistol and fired upon the crowd across the street. He would then turn back around and fire inside the steakhouse. Daniel Moracolino, a construction worker, is next seen running towards the shooter and pinning him to the ground. Police were soon called and the shooter was arrested within ten minutes after the incident. The shooter was later identified as Matthew Tiatto, a psychology student at Valomao University. Friends of Tiatto were all in denial that he was the culprit, calling him a "super kind and caring person". His friends also confirmed that the gun was never seen, or at least out, whenever they would visit him. Johnathan V. Waltas, Matthew's professor at Valomao University, spoke highly of him, calling him a bright student that always had a smile on his face. Not a single person connected to Tiatto believed that he could do it and were, understandably, upset upon learning of the crime and his involvement. "Matty had a great childhood growing up," his mother, Donna Tiatto, told the press. "I always checked in to his schools to see if he was being bullied. Unless he hid that from the faculty and me, I don't see why he would do such a horrible thing." "Matty is no son of mine," his father, David Tiatto, said. "Murderers will never be a part of my family! Not ever! Not now!" As far as a motive, nobody could find one at the moment. However, he was unmasked on camera at the police department and he confessed, without hesitation, to the crime. Restaurant Stays Open Day after Tragedy
Witnesses who survived being killed in Matthew Tiatto's mass shooting in downtown Valomao were shocked to see Adam's Steakhouse opened the next day. "The windows were not even fixed!" cried Melina Natasotto, a cashier from across the street. "It's like Adam lost his damn mind!" "I barely got out of there with my life and he still expected me to come in for work," Michael Totolino angrily told us. "I'm not working there again and nobody else should either!" The owner of the establishment, Adam Costio, sat down for an interview with us later that day. Are you afraid of losing your business due to the tragedy?" I have a lot to lose, Evan. I have a wife and three kids who depend on my steakhouse to life a good life." You've already had two people quit. Don't you think it would have been better to wait a couple days or even a week before asking people to come back?" My requests are not unreasonable. They need money to live and so do I. The world is not a gracious place where you can get your high end purses and skinny jeans for free." "Murder Hornets" seen in Ciunia
Entomologists with the Vitosian Government's Department of Agriculture say they have discovered what is believed to be the first giant hornet nest in Vitosium. After weeks of surveillance and setting up a network of traps, the nest was located Wednesday on a private property in Portaldas, Ciunia. Officials were able to attach radio trackers to four hornets, the third of which led them to the discovery of the nest, while one other managed to chew its tracker off. The giant hornets prey on all kinds of insects, including honey bees, and can quickly decimate colonies. While the hornets can inflict a painful sting on humans who get too close, they are most feared for their potential to harm local bee populations. A recent study revealed the large invasive hornet could spread throughout Adula unless there is a coordinated effort to stop them. Day Sommerville Welcomes Third Child
The famous TV producer announced the happy news on social media on Saturday, September 26th, sharing a photo showing her holding her newborn’s hand. "WELCOME ANGEL HOPE REGA!!!" she posted. "Fausto and I are so happy! SMILES FROM CALLUM AND ARLOTTO AS WELL! Super happy family! So blessed right now! The love I feel for this tiny human is beyond my understanding." Vito Weekly, another news source confirmed in April that the tv producer, 38, was pregnant. "To all the haters that said that Day and Fausto would never make it, they must feel really stupid right now," a source exclusively told Vito Weekly at the time. The couple’s pregnancy news came three months after Fausto Rega's late grandfather was discovered to be the founder of a very dangerous crime syndicate in Diarora, Cunzava. "Coliso J. Rega was the only thing people asked me about for months," Fausto Rega told us on Monday. "People started defining me by my grandfather's actions but I never met the guy. My parents told me to always stay away from him and I'm grateful none of my kids will be able to meet him." Callum Rega, who turned 15 last month, posted on social media: "I have a baby sisterrrr!!!!!!! YAYYYYYY!!!" Day's mother, famous fashion designer, Antonelle Arville, welcomed her new grandchild on social media. "Davina and Fausto are such amazing parents that I know Angel Hope Rega will be just fine," she posted. "Welcome to the world, baby girl!"

The Vitosium Press October 6th, 2020 Breaking News:Prime Minister Gatostico Discusses Disease Vectors
In a press interview yesterday afternoon, Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico spoke to the press about reducing disease vectors. "Numerous species, such as mosquitos, ticks and fleas, are vectors for deadly diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, bubonic plague and many others," he stated. "Most of these diseases are difficult to cure or do not have working vaccines." When asked his definition of "vector", he had this to say. "A vector is a non-sapient macro-organism that can transmit harmful pathogens to a sapient organism," he responded, confusing a few reporters in the crowd, including the one who had asked the question. "A vector-spread pathogen is a microorganism that can cause a disease and is spread by vectors," he continued. "We need to effectively conduct and assemble research on vectors and vector-spread pathogens so we can reduce the threat present to us." Many on social media were split on the conference, though. "So bugs are more important than war?" asked LORD_OF_GAMES283474575 on Chirp. "DUUUUUUUDE! GAOTISCO IS OBSESSED WITH BUUUUUGS!" tweeted ieatpizzaeverydayandtweet32848. "OMG YAAAAS!" fashion Vidtuber, FabRico, tweeted. "Daddo's an entomologist and said this exact thing!" "The f@k is 'entomogolodt'?" replied ihateeverythingthatisntme to FabRico's tweet. Survivor Legend On Her First Win
Many know Joni Leigh Abrilo as the very first winner, the very first double winner and the person to redefine the game forever. In a series that was meant to be a social experiment on how an island castaway would act when having to vote somebody off, the first season of Vitosian Survivor, which took place in 2006, soon charted away from its original course thanks to one individual. In a season that began with your work ethic being graded and how well you did around camp determining your fate, Abrilo, fed up with the way the votes were being decided, schemed with her fellow castaway-now-wife, Lauren Gallmore, and changed the course of the game. In Episode 6, when it was Lauren's time to go, according to the expectations of the game, Abrilo and Gallmore fought to switch the votes and outcome to send their rival, Nelo Palmas, home. After a re-vote that led to Palmas' shocking elimination, Abrilo and Gallmore then formed an alliance with the remaining members of their tribe, Zian, and took control of the game, landing the five Zian members to the Final 5. In the final 2, Joni Abrilo was awarded the victory over Lauren Gallmore. Joni Abrilo was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about that first season. When you first played Survivor, that was fourteen years ago! How crazy is it that your first experience with the show was over a decade ago?" It is insane! My life completely changed after that season! Lauren and I watch that season back once every year. It is how we met, after all." So, the game begins and you guys struggle for two weeks building a good shelter that would stay up." Haha! Yes, I still remember the anger I felt! Our tribe was so clueless on how to build a shelter. We had a doctor, a vet, a residential advisor and whatnot. I mean Michelle's a hydrodynamics professor and was the most useful. Do hydrodynamics have anything to do with building a shelter? Regardless, she was still useful." Let's go onto Day 2. THAT night. So, you are all around the campfire when you tell people that you are a lesbian. You then had to deal with nasty remarks from Colino." I would have punched Colino outside of the game if he said that to me on the streets. He went farther than what you saw in the edit. The edit was washed down! That's all in the past, though. He has changed a lot as a person and has profusely apologized to me." So, Colino is voted out and you begin to get closer to Lauren, especially after your guys' talk on Day 5. What sparked the feelings between you two in the game?" So, before I say anything, Lauren and I didn't even date until three months after filming. During the game, though, we felt like we ... got each-other, if you know what I mean. We were there for each-other and had a lot in common. Despite all the bullsh@t in the game, we felt comfortable around each-other. We also knew that things had to change in the game." So, the game ends and you head back to real life. Was it easy or hard to readjust?" Yeah, a bit. I ate a lot, honestly, haha. I felt like I was starving the entire time so it was nice to have real food for days after. I don't even remember how many pounds I lost when I was on the island." Did you find trusting people to be a lot harder when you returned to your daily life?" Not as much as people nowadays. I felt like I was more skeptical of people but that faded over time. People nowadays have to deal with master strategists and heavy doses of deceit when they play Survivor." Did you have any regrets while playing the game?" Nope! I would have played the exact same way! I redefined the game, after all. If I played differently, who knows where the series would be." Thanks for sitting down with me. It's been a pleasure to talk with you about the past." Thank you as well!" Matthew Tenoa on Quitting Survivor
Matthew Tenoa was once a 27 year old construction worker who is most known as the first person to ever quit Survivor. On Season 2, Episode 7, the construction worker claimed that he was bored and didn't want to play the game anymore. Tenoa was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about that infamous moment. So, how have you been since Season 2?" I've been doing great! I'm married and I have an amazing daughter! I still get the occasional hate on social media but it is what it is." Speaking of your quit, do you have any regrets 13 years later?" Absolutely! I was immature and handled the entire situation wrong. The fact that any of that came out of my mouth just proves it. I'm a lot more mature now but I will never live down that moment." What was the real reason behind your quit? You said you were bored and just didn't want to do it anymore." Honestly, that was the reason. Life on the island bored me to tears and I felt like the grand prize wasn't worth it. Nowadays, I would spend as many days as it would take to get one mil." Do you ever expect to be invited back to Survivor?" No, unfortunately. I burned my bridges with Noble the day I quit the game. If I was invited back, though, I would never be so stupid like I was back then. I'm 40 now. I am not that kind of person anymore." Thanks for sitting down with me, Matt. Hopefully, you can get that call someday." Same here and thank you!"

The Vitosium Press October 13th, 2020 Breaking News:Two Officers Killed in Comiarta Shooting
A 23-year veteran of the Comiarta Police Department, Const. Ansovino Bibolo, as well as a 16-year veteran, Const. Rano Malarsi, died in a shooting downtown, the police force confirmed Thursday. The incident happened Sunday afternoon when officers were called to a property in a sparsely populated corner of Comiarta, a small town southeast of northwest of Canissima. Many were unnerved when three police cars surrounded an apartment complex, later becoming ten. “Crime is the farthest thing from our minds,” Lisia Magri said of the community. "Comiarta is normally a peaceful town so it breaks our hearts that something like this happened." Officers were called in response to a complaint of an “unwanted man.” When the man, Fusolo Panzotto, opened fire, back-up was called. Unfortunately, by the time back-up arrived, Bibolo and Malarsi were already in critical condition. They were later taken to hospital where they were pronounced dead. Panzotto, an accountant, was arrested and charged with two degrees of manslaughter. Renzi Pera on his Survivor Journey Through All Stars
When Renzi Pera first began his Survivor journey in 2006, he was a 32-year-old vet from Caltasi, Navocalco, Vitosium. His run through the very first season of Survivor saw his kind and friendly manner befriend many of the cast and, fortunately for him, he was on the right side of the votes when the merge came, being a part of Joni Abrilo's Zian 5 alliance. At the final 3, after Lauren Gallmore won the final immunity, he was sent packing. Five years later in 2011, now 37, Pera was invited back to the first All Stars edition of the show. He orchestrated the eliminations of six people, wanting to play a more strategic game, and succeeded, being crowned the winner that season. Renzi Pera was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about his journey through seasons 1 and All Stars. When you first played Survivor, that was fourteen years ago! What was it like being a part of the very first season?" It was magical! When I applied, I was applying for this social experiment. I've seen shows like Summer Road Trip where you have a bunch of people together for a couple of weeks so I thought it was going to be something similar. I mean, yeah, I knew about the whole 'voting people off' process but my goal was to just be helpful around camp." For a while, even for the beginnings of the next couple of seasons, what dictated a lot of the vote offs was one's usefulness around camp." Exactly! So, I go in and my first instinct is to just be helpful. Some people were bossy and others were obnoxious but, as long as they stayed on top of their duties, they weren't in threat of going home. You had a true social experiment going on there and it was nice." Things changed when Joni Abrilo introduced strategy to the game. What changed for you at that point?" At first, I didn't like this change but a part of me grew excited at the same time. When Nelo Palmas went home, that is when things changed for good. I voted with Joni [Abrilo] and Lauren [Gallmore] so I felt like we were good. Plus, we were all queer to some extent. Joni and I were gay while Lauren was bisexual. I think we all felt this bond over that similarity." So, the first season is a hit and you are at home watching strategy evolve the game.
" It was unexpected. More and more people played strategic games and I watched people get cutthroat with others. It was divisive at the time but you can't help but respect the evolution now." 2011 hits and you are invited back to All Stars. On Day 15, you, famously, orchestrated the elimination of Micalo Martinelli, who had appeared on two different seasons and won his first one." I was scared it wasn't going to work. We all watched Micalo play a spot on social game the first time around then play the strategic game the second time around and make it to the Final 5. He was a very big threat and nobody wanted to take him out. People trusted him and it was admirable." Then you played the hidden immunity idol." Yeah. When Micalo tried to get Antonio out, I got him and Laura on my side and I used my idol on Antonio. Watching each nullified vote was gratifying. It brought a new love for the game being a part of a move like that. I respect Micalo so much as a player so it had to be done." That wasn't even your last move. You took out Damiano, Seth, Alina, Lauren and, finally, Antonio, on your path to victory." It was really tough. I am not a manipulative person by nature and I'm still not. However, I was fight or flight the entire time and it was either me or them." What were your thoughts going up against Cila Caboso in the finale?" Cila was very strategic in her season and she still had a prowess about her in All Stars. However, to me, she was the best person to bring to the end. I adore Antonio but that guy would have won against anybody." That is all the time we have for today. Thank you so much for speaking with us." Thank you for having me!" The Vitosium Press October 20th, 2020 Breaking News:Agostinio Apologists Rally Turns Violent
Vavila's chief of police has ordered the immediate mobilization of all police resources to put an end to days of street violence and looting. Two days ago, in the town of Vavila, Kingsland, Vitosium, a group of Agostinio Apologists called "The Union of Alexander" held a street rally. Agostinio Apologists are individuals who sympathize and feel like King Alexander of Vitaso was wrongly vilified in history, with many saying that he did nothing wrong. The group known as "The Union of Alexander" has gone one step further, saying that his treatment of minorities was just and should be respected. "Our once glorious leader, King Alexander Agostinio, is seen as a villain in history," group leader, Stuart Pido, said in an online video. "This 'villain' took control of many weak tribes and gave them purpose. He saw potential in them and employed them, making them strong. Those who defied him were not worthy of his generosity and were killed. How is that unjust?" When The Union of Alexander took to the streets, many anticipated them to be violent, which is exactly what happened. "He is a hero!" shouted Pido via a megaphone, as seen in a video recording. "If it weren't for those tribes turning on him, we would still have him here today! Why is Bruno Saivas not treated like the villain he is?! This is unfair to us and the true citizens of Vitaso!" Many buildings were looted and cars were set on fire, leading to the intervention of the Vavila police department. Despite the arrest of Pido and many of the group's members, the ones that remained continued to riot. Basketball Star Suffers Achilles Tear
Keeler Blizzards star, Devon Poracolo-Bates, is expected to miss the 2020-21 season after suffering a torn right Achilles tendon, the team announced on Saturday. It was reported that Poracolo-Bates suffered a leg injury during a workout routine with an MRI scheduled that evening. News of the season-ending Achilles injury deals a devastating blow to Poracolo-Bates and the Blizzards. Prior to this recent spell of injury, Poracolo-Bates enjoyed a dominant near-decade in the league, amassing four championships and a slew of regular season and post-season scoring records. Thankfully, he and the team have been told that he's expected to make a full recovery, based on the type of tear he's suffered. "I Wanted the Journey, Not the Publicity" says Survivor Runner-up, Dottie Salley
Thirteen years ago, in 2007, Dottie Salley, a 53-year-old bar manager at the time, employed on a journey like no other at the behest of her son, Brian Salley. While she did not win, the bar manager managed to make it to the end, becoming the runner-up against competition beast, Alina Bouveia. Dottie Salley was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about Season 2 and her life afterwards. We don't hear enough about the snarky and hilarious runner-up to Season 2." I'm fine with that! I wanted the journey, not the publicity." Before the season, you never watched Season 1. Have you seen the show since?" I have! I am a huge fan of the show and being a part of it so early was something I've always appreciated." Years later, your son, the one who wanted you to apply, ended up competing himself years later." He did fantastic and I'll always be proud of him! He is my only child and he is the best child I could have asked for." Much like the Zian 5, you ended up being on the right side of the season, being a part of the Osprey tribe." I was really lucky, honestly. I was lucky enough to only be in one Tribal Council throughout that entire pre-merge." Let us talk about the infamous Harry vote. You guys only have one member of Troupial left to vote out, yet, at Final 6, Harry manages to sketch everybody out and ends up going home that episode." I still remember that! Now, Harry and I are good friends but I will never forget that moment. He starts saying how he wants Nancy in the final 2 and starts throwing out names that he wants out. Nobody, not even Nancy, really trusted him after that." So he leaves and, somehow, the heavily tattooed, sarcastic bar manager ends up in the Final 2. Did you see that coming when you started your journey?" NO! I did not at all! I didn't even expect myself to make it that far. I have a lot of respect for Alina and she really deserved that win. I'm just happy I made it to the finals, honestly." So, the season ends and you are offered a spot for Blood vs Water with Brian years later, yet you turn it down." I loved my experience but I was fine watching from the couch. Blood vs Water was eight years since my season and I did not want anything to risk my health." I hear Brian owns the bar now." He does! I retired four years ago and gave the business to him." Thank you so much for joining me, Dottie." Thank you for talking with me, Jade. I hope the rest of your day goes well." The Vitosium Press October 27th, 2020 Breaking News:Vitosian Researchers Discovery New Way To Present Migrant Data
Migration is one of the most challenging issues confronting policymakers around the world and the data they use to help make key decisions is often difficult to analyze. Those at the Cremorta Centre on Migration, located in the city of Cremorta, Kingsland, Vitosium, are trying to make it easier by producing in-depth data that harnesses and connects new data sources. Mobile phones and social media are some of the resources used to collect data. Researchers track anonymous digital traces on these platforms. "If these traces are aggregated in such a way to overcome privacy issues, ethics and data security issues, then, collectively, they can show social trends that would be unthinkable with official statistics," Dr. Lisoria Di Lio, a CCM research scientist told us. "The big data collected can support decision-making in various areas, including the jobs market." It is key to know what skills are needed by the labour market, in a society that is demographically aging. It is essential to have this very global vision of migration and how migration fits. CCM research scientists also carried out a multi-disciplinary exercise combining fiscal modelling with demographic projections to analyze the impact of migration on public resources. Comets Tried to Trade Up for Bradley Cavamao
The Amalfeia Comets, a hockey team, were active in trade talks in an attempt to move up to draft Bradley Cavamao, a star who is currently with the Riogoza Valiants. "They were hot on Cavamao," sports podcaster, Elias Cabraliso said on Friday. "They were offering all of these picks to try to move up and get Cavamao. They didn't get him." Don Giovosi of VSEN (Vitosian Sports Entertainment Network) added that the Comets finished third in trying to trade for Joe Nanda. "They are aggressive as hell trying to get these players," Giovosi told us. Katie Dosa Still Hates THAT Survivor Twist
We didn't see much of Katie Dosa on Season 5 of Survivor, presumably because of how she went out in Episode 8. Hardcore fans of the show will remember the Outcasts Twist that allowed two previously eliminated contestants to be voted back into the season. Dosa, completely appalled, threatened to quit the show and was voted out before she could do so. Katie Dosa was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about Season 5 and the Outcasts Twist. Season 5 was many years ago. Are there any fond memories of your Survivor journey?" It was fun up until that moment. I shouldn't have given anybody the satisfaction of voting me out." Are there no regrets with how you went out?" If I competed on that season now, I probably would have just waited until the jury before threatening to quit. By the time jury hit, I probably would have been fine, though." Watching the season back, what was your reaction to what you saw?" I hated it. The editors punished me because I insulted their twist and threatened to leave the show." Do you still hate the Outcasts Twist?" Yeah, one hundred percent. It was stupid!" Have you seen the show since?" Barely. Who watched Survivor anymore anyway?" So, what has Katie Dosa been up to since Survivor?" Tried modelling and graphic design but ended up being an interior designer. I was married for a few years but that didn't last." Well, thank you for joining us, Katie. Are there any parting words you'd like to give us?" Survivor is not easy. I don't regret it but I wouldn't do it again. Ever."

The Vitosium Press November 3rd, 2020 Breaking News:Musician with Flamethrower in Custody Over Aplatta RV Stunt
A musician who shot off a flamethrower while standing on an RV surrendered to police on Wednesday. Authorities said Grape Taco, an electronic musician whose real name is David Giusomiro, was arrested on charges of reckless endangerment and criminal possession of a weapon. The musical artist was filmed earlier this month in an unauthorized stunt that he said was part of a music video for his latest song, "Whatever Boats Your Float". "I did it for the love of my country," he told reporters as he was taken into police custody. His attorney, Tom Whitmont, issued a statement saying the arrest interrupted the "artist's vision of art". “This was artistic expression to the fullest," he said to the reporters in a press conference. "Grape Taco is a revolutionary in a world that misunderstands him. He is a true artist and the artist's vision of art was interrupted." "He drove in with his RV, jumped on top, and started screaming while brandishing a flamethrower," reporter Josetta Vera stated. "Artistic expression, if one can even call it that, should not warrant the lack of safety shown." The Vitosium Press November 10th, 2020 Breaking News:Meteor Lights Up Morning Sky Over Davenport
A bright object spotted streaking across the early morning sky over Davenport, Navocalco, Vitosium was a meteor. Oceanside University's Department of Physics and Astronomy confirms to Davenport News that it was definitely a meteor caught on one of their cameras. "The afterglow left by the meteor is typical of fast Leonids," says Geoff Nomias, an astronomy student. "I am fairly confident that this is a bright meteor related to the Leonid meteor shower." According to the Vitosian Space and Aeronautics Association (VSAA), the Leonids peak in mid-November each year. The Leonids are bright meteors, can be colourful and travel at speeds of 71 kilometres per second. The VSAA received dozens of reports of a fireball in the sky above the country that morning. The Vitosium Press November 17th, 2020 Breaking News:VitoNet Co. Recalls Several Products in Navocalco Over Possible Salmonella Contamination
A number of VitoNet brand products are being recalled in Navocalco due to possible Salmonella contamination. This is a huge shock as VitoNet is one of the biggest seafood-based grocery stores in the country. The more than 20 affected products, which are being recalled by VitoNet Co., include salmon torenados and rainbow trout stuffed with vegetable and cheese. If you have become ill from consuming one of the recalled products, the Vitosian Food Safety Inspection Agency (VFSIA) advises you to contact a doctor. Short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea. Long-term complications may include severe arthritis. “Food contaminated with salmonella may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick,” the agency said in a news release. The VFSIA is also advising Navocalcans who have recently shopped at a VitoNet location to check to see if they have recalled products in their home. If such products are discovered, they should be thrown out or returned to the store where they were purchased. The Vitosium Press November 24th, 2020 Breaking News:Beloved Former Prime Minister Admitted to Hospital
Sino Jack Tamley, the 25th Prime Minister of Vitosium, was admitted to the hospital early yesterday morning. While doctors have been rather hush-hush as to why, many are concerned for the 83-year-old civil rights activist who lost his husband, Anthony J. Romio, to a car accident only three years ago. Many remember Sino Tamley as the very first homosexual Prime Minister of the nation, which shocked many around the world as he was elected into office in 1962 and lasted two terms. The eight years he was in office changed the world, especially Vitosium, as he worked hard to decriminalize same-sex activities and bring awareness to the rights of the LGBTQ+ community, even long after his second term. We only hope that Mr. Tamley can make a quick recovery as the nation has been upset over the news and worry about his health. "I worry for my dad," said Matthew Romio-Tamley, 40, to a reporter. "Charlotte [Hirvonen] and I suspect it has to do with his heart." Charlotte Hirvonen, 36, formerly Charlotte Romio-Tamley, also commented. "My dad is a legend and has done so much for the world," she said. "Losing both dads in the span of three years will be really hard on Matthew and I. We both pray for a speedy recovery."

The Vitosium Press December 1st, 2020 Breaking News:Former Prime Minister and Activist, Sino Tamley, Passes Away
Sino Jack Tamley, the 25th Prime Minister of Vitosium from 1962 to 1970, passed away on November 28th from acute heart failure, doctors say. Sino Tamley was the first homosexual Prime Minister of the nation and helped start the rights of LGBTQ+ during his two terms in office, eventually legalizing same-sex marriage during his last year on May 22nd, 1970. Many members of the LGBTQ+ community looked up to and heavily respected Sino Tamley for his hard work over the years to help decriminalize same-sex activity and bring awareness to the rights the community should have. In 1975, at the age of 38, he, historically, married Anthony J. Romio, a famous mystery author at the time, until Romio's death in 2017 at the age of 78. Together, Tamley and Romio had two surrogate children, Matthew (b. 1980) and Charlotte (b. 1984) Romio-Tamley, who have become activists themselves. "My dads taught me to be open and accepting from when I was first adopted," Charlotte Hirvonen (nee Romio-Tamley) said. "A few days ago, the world lost a legend and a mentor. His words and actions have guided the country for decades." "This has been hard on the entire family," Matthew Romio-Tamley commented. "I'm thankful my wife and children have been there for myself and Charlotte. I'd be lost without them." Prime Minister Vincent Gatostico held a conference the day Tamley's passing was announced. "We have lost a very important figure in our history," he said. "Without his efforts, who knows where the country would be today." OMEGA CEO Announces Break From Catsby Series
Catsby is one of the most influential video game series of all time and even helped OMEGA gain success in 1992 with their console, the OMEGA Nebula. This surge even caused them to briefly outsell its main competitor, the Dream Entertainment, produced by video game juggernaut, Jazz Crisis. From 1992 to now, 21 games have been made in the Catsby franchise including 13 main games, 7 party games and 1 remake. The series itself follows a Vitosian Shorthair cat named Catsby, alongside his friends. Yesterday morning, OMEGA CEO, Vero Emparotti, said on social media that "the company has decided to take a break from the Catsby franchise to focus on other projects". We were able to have an interview with Mr. Emparotti to further clarify why the decision was made. Catsby has been such a huge franchise since the very beginning. What has caused this change in the company's direction? We have a host of amazing ideas that we want to explore.You said it's a break. Will you be exploring new ideas for Catsby in the future?Absolutely! Catsby will never be forgotten or abandoned. Over the next seven years, though, we want to introduce new franchises and new characters. We are finishing two more Catsby games that will be released early next year before the franchise is put on a hiatus, though.That sounds exciting!Catsby Party 6 and Catsby Rivals will be released early next year on February 20th!

The Vitosium Press December 8th, 2020 Breaking News:Country Star Announces Retirement
On August 25th this year, we published an article surrounding Amaranth Wellend's horrific views on King Alexander of Vitaso's reign. While many expected it, her views led to her retirement this week. Amaranth Jean Wellend, born April 9th, 1962, began her career as a country music phenomenon in 1988 with her first album, "Bluegrass". What followed was a 32 year journey as a country star with eight more albums, three kids and five divorces. Her most recent ex-husband was famed actor, Abello de Moa, who filed for divorce back in 2016 citing "physical abuse and ignorant values" as his reasons for it after three years of marriage. As the internet soon discovered, Wellend was rather ignorant in many things, including LGBTQ+ and women's rights, as well as how she viewed minorities, leading to her infamous statement that the minorities should have been "grateful" for how King Alexander treated them. Two days ago, on December 6th, Wellend posted on social media that it was time for her to retire from the music industry at the age of 58. Many celebrated on social media, including other celebrities in the nation. "ABOUT DAMN TIME!" said Griffin Araiva of DnB band, August Epoch. "No time for your bullshit! Goodbye and farewell!" roared broadway actor, Carlitos Mandao. "32 years and you end with a train crash!" actress, Felicia Varelas, said. "I can't tell ... did she announce that she was retiring?" asked wrestler, Jade Amazon. When asked about it, Wellend did admit that, yes, she was retiring. Venancias Comments On Country Behind Bars
Three months after Raymond Venancias lost the 2018 Vitosian Election, he was arrested for his many crimes committed during his tenure as Prime Minister. Now two years in the slammer, the former PM comments on the state of the country in Rayburn Penitentiary's detention center. "Absolute sham!" Venancias can be heard saying in the video posted online. "Gavotastos has led this country to ruin. He thinks he is doing so much but look at the state of the country! He messes up badly when he starts and now he has to fix what he did." When asked if it was fair that John Bastos, Casimiro Borges, Nathan de Lima, Lukas Jost and Joshua Tomao were fired following his loss, he had this to say. "CORRUPTION! UNFAIR!" he yelled. "After he rigged the election in his favour, he made sure I had no part of the government." When asked to clarify on his accusation of the election being rigged, Venancias claimed that he was beloved by the entire country and now has to suffer for it. "Good deeds land you in jail," he added. Many on social media lambasted the former Prime Minister for his delusional comments. After two years, as many agree, nothing has changed. Some people, however, found reason to make jokes like that of beloved former politician, John Third. "If I was elected in 2014, maybe Ray would have kept his sanity," he said on social media. "At least he is getting some help now, even if it was four years too late, haha!" Armiani Comments on Fellow Footballer Spitting on Him in Viral Video
Agiakaia Crusaders wide receiver Seth Armiani was disgusted after a video showed Mike Salavita of the Kataveza Crows appearing to spit at him while his back was turned on Wednesday Night Football. "He's a coward," Armiani said Friday. "I think he knew that maybe behind my back he'd do things like that, but to my face, he wouldn't. I take it for what it's worth. Everybody knows the type of player he is and the type of person he is." Salavita hurled the supposed ball of saliva at the end of the second quarter. Armiani found out about the incident when a member of the audience recorded it and posted it online, leading to anger from him as well as his fans. "We had no bad beef," Armiani continued. "As far as I know, we were cool! I guess not." "I Don't Know What Came Over Me" Says Survivor Season 8 Alum
Back in 2011, 18 castaways began a journey for VTM$1M. In the end, it was 30 year old graphic designer from Navocalco, Gavin Shannonoa, who beat out 26 year old construction carpenter from Kingsland, Tobia Nikol. However, in the middle of this journey, one person would betray their closest ally, Tobia, which lead to their own elimination. This individual was Riga Luzio, a computer hardware developer from Ciunia. Riga Luzio was able to sit down in an interview with Jade Vilotti of The Vitosium Press to talk about her experience in Season 8. You were a joy to watch back in your season. What has life been for you since your island experience in Vulkaria?" It has been amazing! Just recently, my husband, Eric [Luzio], and I celebrated 34 years together! It was just nine years ago that I went to Vulkaria to compete for one mil! Oh, also, my children have been very successful in their careers and I am so proud! OH! I also got four grandchildren since my season!" You seem very excited to talk about your life since Survivor." I struggled a lot growing up. If I competed on the show in my 20s, I don't think I would have been able to handle it. Retiring next year and loving how my life has been now and how it is right now, you can't help but appreciate every moment. I've accomplished a lot and I'm so proud!" Rumour has it that you are going to retire next year." Yep! Sixty-two is when I'm retiring! It's hard to say that sometimes because I remember when I first began my career." Have you seen Survivor since your journey ended?" Absolutely! My children don't have the drive to compete on the show but we watch it all the time. Although, my youngest wants to compete but wants to wait a bit." So, let's talk about how ruthless you were in the show. We haven't seen your back since despite your game! Why is that?" I have been called a few times and I've turned them down. I loved the experience but once was enough for me." So you and Tobia were close allies. Despite the two of you making an alliance with Gavin, you two didn't trust him and plotted against him at merge. What caused you to not trust him?" Gavin was a massive wildcard with everybody. Despite having some difficulties socializing at first, he was a very sweet guy. I saw him as a massive threat because of that. You mix a sweetheart and a wildcard and you have somebody with the recipe to go far ... and he did! He won!" Now, let's talk about the huge alliance you made. It was never explained in the show why you didn't include Tobia but we did see her plot against you once she found out." Around that moment, I began to see her as a threat as well. I don't know what came over me, honestly! I was getting a bit paranoid and began to think that she was plotting against me! It turns out she wasn't but it is so hard to tell when you are playing the game." Do you have any advice to any future players?" Yeah! I may have been wrong but sometimes trusting your gut can be a good risk. You either are right or you are dead wrong. Just don't let paranoia take over you because it will end your game fast!" Thank you for taking the time to talk to us about this." Thank you as well!"

The Vitosium Press December 15th, 2020 Breaking News:Maggie Moriano Comments On Vitosium Since Her Tenure
Margaret Jane Moriano is a Vitosian legend to many and a pioneer of women's rights in politics. Born Margaret Jane Barrett, she began to fight for women's rights as early as 17, going by Maggie Moriano as Moriano was her mother's maiden name. When she was 22, she met Sherman Salantino during a rally in 1944. This moment began their friendship as well as Maggie's start in politics. In 1948, Salantino become Prime Minister and she was appointed as his deputy, becoming the first Deputy Prime Minister of Vitosium. Following Salantino's murder, she became his successor following an election and became the first female Prime Minister. One of her most important policies is having the ratio of gender pay of 70:30 changed to 58:42. Now, at the age of 98, Maggie Moriano, one of the most influential figures in Vitosium's history, speaks about her country now compared to back then. "We are in a position where we don't have to be as scared," she told the Press. "Things may not be perfect but we have progressed to an age where women have more rights." In a video published online, she spoke in more detail. "Vitosium wasn't bare of rights when I was protesting but my beloved country didn't see me as equal," she stated. "Women can do just as much as men can. We were only stopped by the government's limitations. That is why I took the opportunity to try and make a difference." She is seen joined by her children, Rosita (68), Ranelda (64), Amanzio (57), Ivetta (53) and Christopher (51). Unfortunately, Giorgia-Rose and David, who would have been 62 and 60 respectively, both passed away. "When we find ourselves backed into a wall," she continued, "we fight for what we believe in. We all have our reasons and, sometimes, we will find our voices silenced by those who don't want to listen. It's all about convincing those around you when your opposition won't listen. You won't change their minds so speak to those who will listen." "Although, our country had one huge misstep," she said. "A man named Raymond Venancias was voted in over John Third. We hope now that Vincent Gatostico won't make any of the mistakes Venancias did. Our country is better off in the hands of those capable than those like Venancias or Tiabbo." Many on social media praised Maggie Moriano and her efforts throughout the decades. Others are shocked that an "icon" as people put it nowadays, is still alive. "I Take Pride For Lasting As Long As I Did" Says Survivor Fan-Favourite
When one thinks of an underdog from the earlier days of the show, one may think of Nancy Jane Lavas from Portaldas, Ciunia. In 2007, the chef competed in Season 2 of Survivor and made it all the way to fifth place but not before becoming the last member of the Troupial tribe, one of the worst physical tribes in the history of the show. In 2013, she would return to Fans vs Favourites. While she was not on the bottom in that season, she did find herself eliminated at the hands of a hidden immunity idol at Final 12. Nancy Lavas was able to sit down in an interview with Geoff Landon of The Vitosium Press to talk about her two season journey. How does it feel to be considered a beloved fan-favourite?" I'm so surprised that the fans still adore me after all these years. I haven't been on the show since Season 10!" So, back in Season 2, you end up on the Troupial tribe. What was that like?" Absolute hell! We just kept on losing and losing! We only had ONE immunity challenge win that entire pre-merge!" Yet you became the last one standing in that tribe. Do you take any pride in that?" I absolutely do! I can't take pride for being on that tribe but I take pride for lasting as long as I did!" What was your reaction to Harry Palmas in the Final 6?" He put too big of a target on his back. The guy was just asking to be voted out and I was fine with that as long as it wasn't me." So, you return many years later. What was it like being on a more competent tribe?" Absolutely amazing!" Absolutely?" Absolutely! I loved winning challenges for once despite being 58 at that point. I'm 65 now so I know I wouldn't be able to do that but I was surprised my 58 year old body could do any of that!" In Season 2, the "hidden immunity idol" was non-existent. What was it like to be a victim of one in Season 10?" It was a good move on Fae's part. If you have it, use it! At least I was still on the jury, haha!" So, what have you been up to since your season?" Retiring." Retiring?" Yep, retiring. Barry [Lavas] and I have been relaxing and enjoying each-other's company. Also, our old neighbour was a huge prick! He just wasn't a good neighbour. They say you can have good neighbours and bad neighbours but he was a bad one, not a good one. He was not peaceful or clean and yelled at me a couple times. I remember one time when he yelled at me, I nearly clobbered him with my fists, I did! At least we have a new neighbour now, yep!"

The Vitosium Press December 29th, 2020 Breaking News:Vitosians Slated For Courage Project's Space Mission
The Courage Project is a international human spaceflight program funded by the government of Zamastan. The ambitious goal of the project is to land people on Eirus, specifically at the south pole region by 2023. ZSA, the Zamastanian Space Agency, may be leading the program but they expect international partnerships to play a key role in advancing Courage with the long-term goal of establishing a sustainable presence and a planetary economy on Eirus. Two of the astronauts slated for the ground-breaking mission are Armando Nariatra and Dr. Sintia Lavaliotti from Vitosium. Nariatra's grandfather, Edwin Nariatra, was the first Vitosian to set foot on the moon while Lavaliotti was a five-time award winning astronomer before becoming an astronaut herself. "My family has been destined for space since the beginning of time," Nariata said. "My grandfather, Edwin Nariatra, was a beacon of hope for the country and I plan to make him proud." "My life has been dedicated to the science of space for so long," Lavaliotti stated. "To be a part of a mission this historic is a huge honour." Armando Nariatra was born on May 7th, 1972 in Portaldas, Ciunia, Vitosium. At the age of eight, he was declared a prodigy and, at the age of fifteen, he began to attend university for engineering, biological science, physical science and computer science, passing each course with flying colours. Following the deaths of his parents in a 1999 plane crash, Armando wore blue nail polish as a way to honour while mother while also wearing his dad's bowtie collection as a way to honour his father. Sintia Lavaliotti, then known as Sintia Rushford, was born on April 25th, 1967 in Caltasi, Navocalco, Vitosium. Originally wanting to be a lawyer, she would end up pursuing astronomy after meeting Dr. Julia Sancarlo, a world-renown Vitosian astronomer, while in high school. She would attend the University of Sassarta and complete her doctoral research degree in astronomy. The year before she graduated, she would change her surname to Lavaliotti, her mother's maiden name, following her death. Upon graduation, what followed was a highly successful career with award winning papers in the field. In 2008, she would return to the University of Sassarta for engineering, biological science, physical science and computer science with the hopes of pursuing her next dream of going into space. While many are excited, we can only imagine the excitement of the sixteen astronauts chosen from around the world to be a part of this mission. We wish for the very best and hope that they can stay safe in what could be a dangerous journey.
