New York Adult Entertainment: NYC council votes to turn Coney Island beachfront area into year …

The developer has refused to sell for years. And he says he still wants to play a role in the future of his childhood neighborhood.
“I’m the stakeholder. I’m the guy who controls this — it’s my sandbox,” the 45-year-old landowner said this month.
On another 20 acres just blocks from the beach, the city’s Coney Island Development Corp. foresees 4,500 new housing units and a park for area residents.
Ron Stewart, a 56-year-old parole officer who has lived in the neighborhood since he was a child, says there have always been two Coney Islands: “the amusement area and the residents.”
“People would laugh at me when I said I live in Coney Island,” he said. “They’d say, ‘You live under the Cyclone? You live in the spook house?’”
These days, the amusement area at night is home to prostitutes and drug addicts, residents say.

New York Adult Entertainment: Review and Comment Deus ex Machina

Berating him for having lied (âœHow canst thou say, â˜I love thee,â when thy heart is not with me?â), Delilah asks him a fourth time, and this time he admits he will lose his strength if his head is shaved. She then gets him to sleep while a man shears off his hair, and the accomplices put out his eyes and carry him in shackles to Gaza. Delilah gets paid. (Eventually, after his hair has grown back, the blind Samson gets revenge by pulling down the central pillars supporting a house where three thousand Philistines are partying. They are killed, but so is he.)
But why Delilahâs great vindictiveness? Besides saying that Samson âœlovedâ Delilah, the Bible gives no other hint about their relationship. Was Delilah a prostitute seeking only money? Was she a Philistine who might have lost kin to Samsonâs earlier rampage? Or was she attracted to Samson? Did she return his affections? We donât know.

New York Adult Entertainment: Prayer for Abolition

Check out Nicholas Kristof piece chronicling slavery in the United States. Yes, this evil is “alive and well” in the 21
century. Human trafficking is now the third largest illegal industry in the world – just behind drugs and weapons. Kristof, an award winning New York Times columnist reports on girls being sold into forced prostitution on our own streets.  Kristof is a first rate reporter who has uncovered firsthand the horrors suffered by trafficking victims all around the world. This latest article exposes human trafficking inside the United States.
Why bring this up in a blog about prayer? Because Christians must intercede about this and other justice issues! God is a God of justice. He sides with the poor and oppressed and against those who abuse power. This crisis is so dire that only prayer can turn i. The abolitionist movements in England in the 18th century and the US in the 19th century were led by Christians who prayed until they prevailed. It’s time we do the same.

Although it was smaller than other conventions of its kind, I’d say the entire show was a good turnout for the companies who were there. Like other businesses in the current economy, the adult entertainment industry isn’t enjoying the same kind of success it has in the past, but it’s important for trade shows like this one to educate buyers, retailers, and their audiences. The major companies want you to know that they’re coming up with better product for their consumers all the time. Read More

New York Adult Entertainment: Obama Hopes Beer Can Douse Controversy

Obama’s post-racial election puts the lie to claims that America is racist. It turns Gates into an obsolete, fading spokesman for a civil-rights cause that has triumphed and no longer needs highly-paid demagogic leaders like himself.
But Gates is media savvy and seized a golden opportunity when he saw one.
By screaming racism at an innocent cop whose career he was therefore willing to destroy as a publicity stunt, Gates gained millions of dollars of worldwide publicity and will easily pocket at least an extra million dollars in speaking fees, book deals, and other opportunities this has created.
Gates’ opportunism comes in the dying twilight of poverty pimps and race hustlers like Jackson, Al Sharpton, Democratic politicians of the Obama type, and others who for half a century have enriched and elected themselves by promoting racial polarization, Balkanization, fear, and hatred.

New York Adult Entertainment: Bryce Dallas Howard, You’re Not Alone — Here Are Five Other Re …

ALBUS DUMBLEDORE (”Harry Potter” Series): When actor Richard Harris tragically passed away after “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,” Muggles across the globe wondered how the series could go on. Now, with only the two-part “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” left to go, Michael Gambon’s interpretation of Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore is the definitive version of the character. While Harris’s gentle portrayal of the long-bearded wizard is certainly missed, Gambon’s scene-stealing presence has cast a spell on “Potter” fans everywhere.
JAMES “RHODEY” RHODES (”Iron Man” Series): You know it’s hard out in Hollywood for a pimp, but it’s even worse in comic book land for Terrence Howard. The “Iron Man” star was famously dropped from the cast of the big budget sequel due to a reported salary dispute, leaving Oscar-winning actor Don Cheadle to pick up the War Machine mantle for “Iron Man 2.” Sure, it would have been nice to see Howard’s promise of “next time” fulfilled, but it’s hard to deny the sheer force of Cheadle’s acting chops — especially after his crowd-pleasing appearance at Comic-Con last weekend.

New York Strip Clubs: Diplomat gets one year in visa bribery scheme

By NEDRA PICKLER
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON — A former official at the U.S. consulate in Toronto has been sentenced to a year in prison for expediting visas in exchange for gifts of jewelry and trips with exotic dancers.
Mike O’Keefe admitted in court that he expedited 21 visas for an international company named STS Jewels and got presents from the chief executive officer, Sunil Agrawal.
The pair were sentenced together Wednesday for the scheme that was discovered in 2006.
Agrawal, who lives in New York, got probation and a $100,000 fine.
O’Keefe, who now lives in New Hampshire, must return four rings and a necklace he received for himself and his wife. He also must pay $5,000 to compensate for trips New York and Las Vegas with the strippers.
