Manhattan Strip Clubs: Report: Apple to Wrap Entire Campus in Enormous Rubber Bumper

Following the announcement of free bumpers for iPhone 4 owners, Apple intends to encase its corporate headquarters in rubber, eSarcasm has learned.
CEO Steve Jobs has authorized Apple’s top prophylactics engineers to build an enormous rubber bumper to fit snugly around the main campus at One Infinite Loop, according to sources within the company who requested anonymity because they like having thumbs. When completed, the bumper would stand 12 feet high and extend approximately 1.25 miles, covering the entire perimeter of the Appleplex.
Unlike with the iPhone 4, where bumpers enhance the flow of voice and data to the handset, the Apple Information Bumper would serve to keep data from leaking out. The move is intended to stem an embarrassing flow of leaks from Apple employees, which resulted in iPhone prototypes being left in hofbraus, Vietnamese soup kitchens, and strip clubs.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Palin Reconsiders Stance on Late Term Abortions after Bristol Announces …

The surprise announcement that Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston are back together and planning marriage AND a Realty Show, portends a bigger train wreck than experienced in Andhra Pradesh, India last week which killed scores of passengers.
Levi, who insiders say ‘came up way short’ in his frontal nudity spread in Playgirl, failed in his escort service when Craigs List refused to run his illiterate ads, and was laughed out of porn studio during a ‘reading’, is said to have turned over his career to Jon Gosselin in an effort to ‘make a success of himself.’
The announcement of the wedding has left the Palin & Johnston family dazed and confused, with Levi’s mother, Sherry 43, arrested in 2008 for drug crimes, afraid that “I’ll never see my grandson again!”

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: NJ Supreme Court rejects Perth Amboy man’s request to have manslaughter …

N.J. Supreme Court rejects Perth Amboy man’s request to have manslaughter conviction overturned
Published: Monday, July 19, 2010, 1:07 PM     Updated: Monday, July 19, 2010, 1:10 PM
PERTH AMBOY — The New Jersey Supreme Court has rejected a Perth Amboy man’s argument that his conviction for killing a prostitute in the city in 2004 should be overturned because he was not permitted to call a psychiatrist to explain why he would confess to a crime he didn’t commit.
In a unanimous opinion released today, the justices affirmed Graciano Martinez-Rosales’ conviction for aggravated manslaughter in the fatal stabbing of Carolyn Arrington, 38.
Martinez-Rosales, now 26, tried to suppress his confession before his 2006 trial and called a psychiatrist, Robert Latimer, to buttress his argument that death threats made by investigators before he gave his statement caused him to confess to a crime he didn’t commit.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: CNN standards at issue

Which brings us to CNN, where rumors that the cable news channel is finalizing talks with America’s Got Talent judge Piers Morgan to assume the marquee 9 p.m. time slot now occupied by Larry King seem to be the final admission that the news-first strategy once favored by Ted Turner’s brainchild is officially ancient history.
The first sign, of course, was the hiring of disgraced former New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer and conservative columnist Kathleen Parker to replace Campbell Brown at 8 p.m. In a matchup that first sounded like a practical joke “Where’s the one place an ex-governor ousted for hiring prostitutes would feel like the least scummy guy in the building? The TV news industry!” (rim shot) CNN busted its habit of hiring actual broadcast journalists for its high-profile gigs.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: UNICEF: Young people face brunt of Eastern Europe’s HIV epidemic

Vienna – Governments in Eastern Europe and Central Asia need to reach out to street children and mothers infected with the AIDS virus if the region’s epidemic – the fastest growing in the world – is to be reversed, a United Nations report said Monday.
Some 1.5 million people in the region are infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, the UN children’s fund, UNICEF, said in a report released at the 18th International AIDS Conference in Vienna.
Governments should stop stigmatizing children and others with HIV and instead implement preventive programs in the region based on an approach of “inclusion and solidarity,” UNICEF said.
Such programmes should be aimed at street children and young people who engage in high-risk behaviour, such as drug use and prostitution, UNICEF said.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Harsh attitudes fuel Eastern Europe HIV epidemic: UNICEF

Anthony Lake, UNICEF’s executive director, said efforts to contain this rapid spread were being thwarted by harsh political and social attitudes, particularly to the 3.7 million injecting drug users in the region who are at very high risk of HIV.
“Children and adolescents living on the margins of society need access to health and social welfare services, not a harsh dose of disapproval,” he said in commentary with the report. “We need to build an environment of trust and care, not one of judgment and exclusion.”
About 33.4 million people worldwide are infected with HIV. Since AIDS emerged in the 1980s, almost 60 million people have been infected with it and 25 million have died. Drug users can spread HIV by sharing needles with an infected person.
UNICEF said authorities in Eastern Europe and Central Asia needed to set up non-judgmental services to address the needs of marginalized people such as drug addicts and prostitutes.

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Mad Men and the Paradox of the Past

The Praetorian guards, of course, were a specially chosen group of soldiers who abused their imperial power over Rome. Mad Men depicts a group of men who have great influence over what they consider their particular citizenry — consumers — and their particular emperor — consumerism. By cataloguing this group’s “licentious” excesses (imbibing during the workday, hiring prostitutes on the company dime, etc.), general indifference to the burgeoning youth counterculture (think: Bertram Cooper’s horror at Kennedy’s lack of hat), and miring themselves in the past (Roger Sterling’s unfortunate minstrel show in “My Old Kentucky Home”), Weiner, consciously or unconsciously, is demonstrating the ways in which America’s Old Guard is leading the ’50s generation to its end by stubbornly refusing to go forward. Weiner has remarked of that generation of people, “[They were saying,] ‘We don’t want to be that way. We’d rather fail.’”

Manhattan Adult Entertainment: Chatham limits location of tattoo parlors, adult entertainment

Chatham limits location of tattoo parlors, adult entertainment by Jake Remaly on July 17th, 2010 Comment At a Loyalty Ink benefit in December for the New Jersey Battered Women’s Shelter, co-owner Shawn Berhman tattoos Brian Bedell of Rockaway Township. The Roxbury tattoo parlor is concerned other towns will follow Chatham’s lead in restricting where tattoo parlors can operate. (Staff photos: Dawn Benko) CHATHAM — Tattoo parlors, body piercing shops and adult entertainment stores looking to open in the borough will be limited to an industrial zone by the Passaic River following the Borough Council’s unanimous passage this week of an ordinance originally penned in response to a vendor inquiry last December. Mayor V. Nelson Vaughan III, knowing the borough couldn’t ban such establishments outright due to the First Amendment, had legal counsel — including borough attorney Anne Marie Rizzuto — craft an ordinance to limit such businesses that would hold up in court. Scott Valencia, co-owner of Loyalty Ink, …
