Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Paterson’s Political Fix

Above all, Patersons package would institute taxpayer funding of political campaignsincreasing bureaucratic control over what should be a fundamentally nongovernmental activity. Private political activity is protected by the First Amendment and should be encouraged, not regulated. Yet self-styled reform groups, including Common Cause and NYPIRG, are gushing over Patersons proposal, seeing it as a way to prevent future corruption and citing former state senate majority leader Joseph Brunos bribery, former governor Eliot Spitzers prostitutes, and former comptroller Alan Hevesis misuse of state employees for personal services.
Brunos case shows how misguided this outlook is. Bruno was recently convicted of fraud for concealing payments for outside work that hed received from business interests seeking legislative favors. His ethical violations, that is, consisted of good old-fashioned bribery. The public surely deserves to know if state pols are on the payrolls of people seeking government contracts or benefits; a reasonable requirement to disclose that information makes sense, and in fact thats where the state legislature was headed. But Paterson risks sabotaging that reasonable measure with his in …

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Tiger Woods Hookup: He Likes Threesomes and Dudes

This is the first we’ve heard of Tiger possibly enjoying dudes in his group sex parties, but considering he can’t even choose his own golf club, of course he might need a little advice on whether to go with the nine iron or the seven wood when he has four naked cocktail waitresses in his hotel room, right? You say sex with dudes, he says sex caddy.
Hollywood madam Michelle Braun first added Loredana Jolie to the list of Tiger’s women who aren’t named Elin Woods last month, telling The New York Daily News, “She’s a stunning girl. He went out with her four or five times. She took part in group sex. They met up in 2006 or early 2007. I’d say he paid $15,000 for her.” More Tales Of Powerful Men And Hookers
Now Loredana’s rep says she is a model, not a prostitute, but that she wants to use some of the money from selling her Tiger-paid-me-for-sex story “to promote healthy living by opening a transitional home for women who wish to escape or who have already escaped the sex industry.” It’s so fun when publicists debate semantics.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Latest Tiger Woods: gay sex, Loredana Jollie and did he pay $60000 for a …

The report stirred controversy as there is a difference between having a number of mistresses or engaging in extramarital affairs and buying sex. If the reports are true that Tiger paid madam Michelle Braun for sexual liaisons with her employee, Loredana Jolie when she worked for Metro Parties, then despite Loredana’s claims that she is not a prostituted, an illegal action transpired.
The New York Daily News reported on December 11 that Michelle Braun said of Loredana, “She’s a stunning girl,” Braun said. “He went out with her four or five times. She took part in group sex. They met up in 2006 or early 2007. I’d say he paid $15,000 for her.”
According to a report by the New York Post, Loredana is a ‘model’ and not a ‘prostitute.’  “She’s going to come out swinging. She knows all about how Tiger would arrange women for sex, and would sometimes get two or three women in his room at once,” the rep said.
“Loredana is a model, not a prostitute, but she was close to a lot of what went on. She slept with Tiger more than once.”

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Tila Tequila Finds Herself in the Middle of Casey Johnson’s Burglary Scandal

Jasmine also called the cops two days before the warrants were issued to inform them that she’d seen Casey wearing her gold dress on the red carpet — and there are indeed, pictures of Casey wearing a slightly baggy gold dress with Tila next to her at an event.
Besides her stolen items, Jasmine is steamed up at Tila for another reason: Her lawyeres have issued a cease and desist letter to the company that hosts Tila’s blog, after the dimunitive internet celebrity posted a profanity-filled blog post about Jasmine.
Tila claimed in her post this morning that Jasmine ruined the couple’s lives with her claims of burglary. In the rant, she calls Jasmine a “prostitute,” “b-tch,” “c-nt,” “drug addict,” “con artist,” and more. TMZ reports that Jasmine’s lawyers are threatening a lawsuit if the post isn’t removed from the site.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: TOSCA AND THE TWO DOWNSTAIRS Plays The Cell 2/3-21

In the play, the doorkeeper’s lodge of the Palazzo Farnese is dominated by Emilia, a proud Roman woman who is responsible for upholding both the house’s decorum and the reputation of the powerful and wicked Baron Scarpia. She is married to Nando, the jailer of the Castel Sant’Angelo; a strong housewife who doesn’t get easily upset over the constant shouting and somewhat shady affairs of the Palazzo. The politics of Rome in 1800 are important to keep in mind. Napoleon having invaded Italy, power was shifting between the old royalists (who employ Scarpia) and the young Italian revolutionaries (like Cavaradossi), who wanted Italy to become a republic along French lines. Emilia passionately supports anything Baron Scarpia must do to wield his authority.
One night, a woman named Iride sneaks into the porter’s lodge. She is an actress and former prostitute from outside Milan who has come to pick up her husband, Sciarrone, the galley-sergeant and sadistic factotum of Scarpia. Sciarrone is working late at a very delicate job on the …
