:New York Escorts Today!

Apart from the weekly Star and the San Antonio News, Murdoch’s lowdown journalism isn’t working its magic in the U.S. Sensational news coverage, more sports, and expensive promotion gimmicks have won readers: circulation at the Post is up to 960,000, nearly double the readership when Murdoch took over. Murdoch’s brightening, as he calls it, has boosted the Boston Herald’s circulation from 247,000 to 318,000 — a 28% gain – in just one year.
But advertisers haven’t been eager to push their products in papers with headlines that scream HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR or GRISLY FIND IN VETERANS HOSPITAL (two classics from the Post). The Herald has made only a small dent in the Boston Globe’s 85% share of advertising revenues. “We’ve got a long, long way to go,” Murdoch admits. “The Globe is our most formidable competitor in any U.S. city. They don’t like me and I don’t get on with them. They’re very high class.”

Blah blah, online safety and privacy concerns. The sexualization of girls in today’s world. Pole dancing is for strippers. You can imagine what they’re saying.
…
There are plenty of dances that have risque origins, but no one freaks out when young ballroom dancers perform a toned-down version of the tango. Should poles never be involved in dance routines again because in the past 30 or so years they were used as a prop in strip clubs?
I don’t know that I’d say they should never be used in dance routines, but really do wonder what is the point of offering pole dancing classes to young kids. Adult friends of mine who’ve taken these classes have done it *because* they wanted to learn tantalizing stripper moves to impress their boyfriends with. What’s the motivation for a parent signing her 7-year-old daughter up?

Each day, the New York tabloids vie to sell readers at the newsstands on outrageous headlines, dramatic photography, and, occasionally, great reporting. who is today’s winner?
The New York Post:  an artillery-burst of short words matched up by alliteration and rhyming is the hallmark of the great tabloid headlines of all time. And even when they’re just funny and only some of the rules apply, some of the most famous headlines of tabloid news stories have come from stories nobody remembers because they weren’t such big news. “HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR” continues to be the standard for those.
Just the same, today’s Post cover treatment doesn’t seem to fit the story it sells. the massive “CAR CAMS SLAM JAMS” promises something massively titillating; what it actually leads to is a story about a new technology being employed by the Department of Transportation to ease Midtown traffic. “Finally! Hi-tech traffic relief” reads the dek.

The Man Behind The Lilliputian Stripper
Mort Segal and Joan Feldman remembered their dad at StoryCorps in New York City.
Jack Segal made his living booking novelty acts from the 1940s to the 1960s in the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York. There were more than 500 hotels and resorts in the region.
“He employed performers that the other agents would never use or couldn’t even find, like the lilliputian stripper, blind xylophone player,” Jack’s son, Mort, tells his sister Joan Feldman while visiting StoryCorps in New York City.
Jack also had dog acts and the hotels would complain sometimes.
“But he felt for every person, there was a show somewhere and somebody would like them,” Joan says.
Mort, 82, explained that “in the heyday of the Catskills, the performers slept on pool tables, on the stage, in the chicken coop” and his father would advocate for them.

We don’t tie ourselves into intellectual knots worrying what Jack the Ripper means for our tolerance of prostitution. He doesn’t mean anything. This is no different.

TSUNAMIGOD 12:17 PM ET July 30, 2011 What I understand from news What I understand from news reports to be this man’s political ideology doesn’t commend itself to me in any way, but ideology can serve as a pretext for morally despicable acts as easily as it can be a reason for them. This man clearly spent a great deal of time and effort thinking of a way to justify slaughtering children. If he hadn’t come up with his goofy idea of being a modern Knight Templar, he’d have come up with something else. We don’t tie ginecomastia ourselves into intellectual knots worrying what Jack the aumento peniano Ripper means for our tolerance of prostitution. He doesn’t mean anything.

Several former prosecutors said the decision to allow Diallo to speak publicly about the incident could create inconsistencies the defense would try to exploit at trial. Her credibility is already under siege after prosecutors said she lied about her past and about the immediate aftermath of the alleged attack.
“You’re creating a treasure trove of material for the defense to dig into,” said Jeremy Saland, a defense lawyer who worked as a prosecutor under Vance’s predecessor, Robert Morgenthau.
Others have suggested that the media appearances show that Diallo’s attorney, Kenneth Thompson, no longer believes the criminal case will hold up. Thompson argued on Thursday that she was forced to come forward to counter “lies” about her, including a report in the New York Post claiming she worked as a prostitute. Diallo has sued the Post for libel over that report.

The star is Brendan Gleeson, as a foul-mouthed roué of an Irish-small-town cop; American actor Don Cheadle plays an FBI agent who comes to Ireland in hot pursuit of a drug gang moving half a billion dollars’ worth of cocaine. The film’s plot works tightly, but is not especially important to its success: Go to this one for the laughs, and to have a good time in the company of likeable, terrifically well-written characters (especially Gleeson, but also Cheadle and even a couple of the villains).
I recommend this movie fervently, without any reservation, except the following: The lovable main character uses drugs, has sex with prostitutes, expresses a number of bigoted sentiments, and has a vocabulary in which roughly one out of every ten words is a four-letter one. So if you yourself are made uncomfortable by that sort of thing, or don’t want to expose your kids to it, please skip this movie. But I would stress that the roughness …
