Detroit Adult Entertainment: Romance, Recovery, and Friendship in Hollywood: Where the facts are blurred
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No Comments12,775 women. Unlikely connections fueled by drug addiction. Prostitution scandals. These are but a few of the entanglements America’s most popular have been finding themselves in lately.
Peter Biskind recently claimed in his new book Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America, that 72-year-old actor, producer, screenwriter and director Warren Beatty had sex with 12,775 women.
…
Soon to be New Jersey Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov, Russia’s richest man, has had the rare fortune of Vladimir Putin’s backing in a three-year-old prostitution scandal. Putin recently cleared Prokhorov’s name in the scandal, with the sweet reward of being invited to stay at Pokhorov’s mansion in celebration with a hundred other people. I would be surprised at anything less after witnessing Putin in a Barbara Walters interview stating, “What happens at Prokhorov’s, stays at Prokhorov’s”.
Detroit Adult Entertainment: Warren Beatty: I Did Not Have Sex with 13000 Women
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsYou know it’s a bad sex number estimate when it begins “Using simple arithmetic…” Author Peter Biskin claimed his Warren Beatty biography was authorized, but blew his cover by using “simple arithmetic” to guess a ludicrous sex number: “12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on.” Using simple arithmetic, this is more sex than those who frequented New York City’s glory holes in Chelsea’s heyday, and even if the young Beatty was totally baller, that’s pushing it. I don’t think he’s even had a prostitution scandal—and if he did, there still aren’t enough hookers in all the Emperor’s Clubs in the world, not even if you count Rachel Uchitel. So it’s no wonder Beatty’s lawyer gave a statement to HuffPo announcing that the guy has no idea what “authorized” means. [People] [HuffPo]

Detroit Adult Entertainment: Al Qaeda running low on borderline competent terrorists
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No Comments… Then it was a case of asking someone to drive a car into an airport in Scotland whilst setting themselves on fire – something even a retard could manage – but still they failed.”
“And now we have people who can’t even set fire to themselves on a plane after a month of training.”
Next phase
Connolly continued by suggesting that the next series of attacks could be almost comical in their ineffectiveness.
“Honestly, it’s quite possible the next attack will involve a big paper bag and a loud shout of ‘BANG’”
“It’s a doomed strategy on Al Qaeda’s part anyway, I mean, can you really trust someone who is motivated by the promise of sexual favours in the afterlife?”
“What if Christianity made them a better offer? Say one-hundred virgins in Heaven, and a roll around with a prostitute in the nearest motel?”

Warren Beatty
A new book claims that Warren Beatty slept with more than 12,000 women in his lifetime.
The book, Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America, written by Peter Biskind, claims that the 72-year-old actor slept with a crazy amount of women but really has no proof of it, and really, the author pulled the number out of his ass.
Biskind told the New York Post that he came up with the number by “Using simple arithmetic,” but doesn’t say exactly what simple arithmetic that is exactly.
But what he does say is that Beatty banged, and I quote: “12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on.”

Detroit Adult Entertainment: Detroit Real Estate: Down and Out at Market Value
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsSome 9,000 homes and lots went up for tax foreclosure auction in the American symbol of industrial urban failure…yet 80% of them remain unsold despite a minimum bid of $500.
How the world turns.
Once Detroit was a dynamic city, the urban equivalent perhaps of a can-do, modern woman, the kind who could have easily attracted money and devotion from deep-pocketed suitors.
But now the ol gal just aint what she used to be. “Motor City” must sting like an accusation. Her industries are gone and the political props have only prevented the sort of changes that she needed to retain her vitality.
Now shes lost her looks…and her dignity…and the only ones willing to touch her arent willing to pay very much. But apparently a few banks are hoping to buy claims to pimp Detroit out, while making absolutely no investment in improving her lot.
Detroit Adult Entertainment: Pimping the Pontiac Silverdome?
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsThe Citizens of Pontiac (group) is upset that the city-owned Silverdome, which cost $55.7 million, sold well below its market value, behind closed doors and out of view of residents. Members hoped enough funds would be raised by the sale to erase Pontiac’s $7 million budget deficit and allege selling it at such a low price “severely harms public health, safety and welfare of the residents.”
Leeb, of course, argues that even the embarrassingly low sale price helps ease Pontiac’s deficit — by eliminating steep maintenance costs for a mostly empty stadium, as well as putting the property back on the tax rolls and compelling the new owner to pay up. More than anything, it seems like Leeb, an appointee of Gov. Jennifer Granholm, just wants to put the matter behind him.
Meanwhile, a story in today’s Oakland Press provides more colorful courtroom theatrics:
During the packed hearing, opponents of selling the Silverdome for $583,000 wore sweatshirts with the words “Pimping ain’t dead.” Near the words was a cartoon figure of a bearded man wearing a wide brimmed hat, suit and eyeglasses.
Detroit Adult Entertainment: HIV/AIDS will be a major issue for FIFA World Cup
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsNo sex worker programmes in placeThe World Cup may be an opportunity to build awareness about HIV, but when it comes to dealing with the threat of infection posed by prostitution, very little has been done by the South African government.
…
Richter noted that legalising sex work would make it easier to protect sex workers and their clients from HIV. However, there is not time to pass new legislation legalising prostitution before the World Cup, and therefore campaigners call for a moratorium on arrest of sex workers during the World Cup.
“In a context where sex work is legal and seen as legitimate work, where we have a labour law framework in place, it will mean that sex work will be safer, and that the tourists and clients who come will be safer,” Richter told IRIN/PlusNews.
Detroit Adult Entertainment: Sex tourism: Are our hands clean?
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsThe convictions of Huard and Rochefort, and the November arrest of former Windsor priest Rev. John Duarte on charges he sexually assaulted underage boys in Port-au-Prince and the fishing village of Labadie, have raised questions about whether Canada is doing enough to thwart sex tourism in its missions.
…
A second study, by B.C. law professor Benjamin Perrin, showed 146 Canadians were charged with child sex offences overseas from 1993-2007, based on requests for consular support. Many more Canadians likely bribed their way out of being charged, reported Perrin, who obtained his data through the Access to Information Act from the Department of Justice.A report by the U.S. State Department, in its Diplomacy in Action publication, shows that, since 1997, 110 formal charges have been filed against Canadians suspected of sexually exploiting children in foreign countries.”This not a mysterious or unknown social problem,” said Butt.”It’s a well-known phenomenon that people travel to other countries to misbehave. Talk to the people in so-called receiving countries. They’ll tell you who the major sending countries are.”He said …

Detroit Adult Entertainment: Nigerian indicted in bombing try has skilled defenders
January 7, 2010 at 8:49 pm | In Detroit adult entertainment | No CommentsSiefer, 58, runs a taxpayer-funded office of about 20 attorneys who are appointed to represent those who can’t afford legal representation.
She oversaw her office’s defense of Karim Koubriti, one of four north African immigrants convicted in 2003 in Detroit on federal terrorism charges. A federal judge threw out the convictions because prosecutors withheld key evidence from Koubriti and the other defendants.
In 1995, Siefer was called in to represent James Nichols when he was arrested in connection with the Oklahoma City bombing that sent his brother Terry to prison for life and Timothy McVeigh to a federal execution chamber.
Earlier in her career, she defended Ronald Nitz against federal charges arising from the fatal baseball-bat-beating of Vincent Chin outside a Highland Park, Mich., strip club. The 1982 attack became a metaphor of the anger from Detroit’s declining auto supremacy in the face of Asian automakers.
