Detroit Strip Clubs: Rima Fakih Pole Dancing Photos Fiasco
May 25, 2010 at 2:48 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsMiss USA Rima Fakih pole dancing photos had made quite a buzz on the internet. Muslims reacted to the claim that she is a Muslim. They say that a true blooded Muslim who honors her religion will not be engaged in such an illicit activity.
Some of those which have seen Rima Fakih pole dancing photos said that people should not make it an issue. They say that it is just a fan filled contest and there was no intention to do it in bad taste.
Rima Fakih pole dancing photo was taken when she joined the “Stripper 101″ contest of the radio station Mojo. Mojo In The Morning says that there is no illicit act involved in the said contest and that the venue was exclusive for girls and the contestants.
Detroit Escorts: Crime Rates Down For Third Year, Despite Recession
May 25, 2010 at 5:13 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsIn Washington, where the number of murders fell from 186 to 143, Phil Mendelson, chairman of the D.C. Council’s public safety committee, said case closure rates have gone up as detectives work more quickly and information is shared more within the department.
The police department in Columbus, Ohio, where the violent crime rate went down 10 percent, has been trying different neighborhood strategies, including direct patrols of precinct hot spots aimed at reducing thefts and prostitution. Sgt. Rich Weiner said it is difficult to quantify the role the economy plays in crime rates. Voters last summer approved a city income tax increase that saved 300 police jobs, Weiner said. The city got $1.25 million in federal stimulus money last year to pay the salaries of about 25 new police recruits.

Detroit Strip Clubs: The Left Cheers, The Right Explodes, And Miss USA Wins
May 24, 2010 at 3:36 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsSimilarly, there’s no reason for the right wing to lose its mind like it has in the wake of Rima Fakih’s Miss USA victory. The conservative response ranges from the illogical (blaming affirmative action) to the disgusting (calling Rima Fakih a terrorist), and has done nothing but bring publicity to an event which would have otherwise gone from irrelevant to forgotten in a matter of days. Just like winning the Miss USA pageant isn’t a shining beacon of improved race relations, it certainly isn’t a sign of Muslim infiltration or terrorist victory. If the terrorists plan to destroy America by planting a sleeper Miss USA, then they’re far dumber than we could have imagined and we have absolutely nothing to worry about.
Of course, none of the this controversy would have ever gotten off the ground if Rima Fakih hadn’t stumbled in her evening gown, or if those stripper pole pictures had never been released, or if runner-up Miss Oklahoma hadn’t been asked a question about the Arizona immigration …
Detroit Escorts: Facing possible return to jail in Detroit, Kilpatrick buffs his national image
May 24, 2010 at 5:13 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsSome experts say Kilpatrick, no matter what the judge decides, is preparing himself for life after the crisis. He lives in the Dallas suburbs, having fled Detroit in a bid to escape the sullied image that has damaged him, his former administration, his family and may have even spread to his mother, U.S. Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, D-Detroit. Many believe her son’s activities have created tougher-than-usual re-election campaigns for her.
Lester Spence, a political science professor at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, said Kilpatrick had no choice but to rebuild his name through a national public relations strategy.
Spence, who was born in Detroit and reared in the suburbs, said Kilpatrick is unlike former New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer, who was forced to resign following a scandal involving a prostitute. But Spitzer has regained some national exposure by re-engaging the public through his views on policy. In recent weeks, Spitzer has made numerous appearances on television, including hosting a show on MSNBC last week.
Detroit Strip Clubs: Rima Fakih was crowned Miss USA 2010 in Las Vegas
May 23, 2010 at 10:12 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsOn Sunday evening, Miss Michigan USA Rima Fakih was crowned Miss USA 2010 in Las Vegas — and the Fox News immediately started hammering the affair with insinuations that Miss Oklahoma Morgan Elizabeth Woolard, the first runner-up, was slighted because of her pro-Arizona immigration stance in her answer in the interview section of the pageant. But hints that an Arab-American immigrant (Rima Fakih was born in Lebanon) was less deserving of the Miss USA 2010 crown became subtext for another scandal-in-the-making — pictures of the newly crowned Rima Fakih in a 2007 pole dancing “stripper” competition. And with the pictures scandal comes the inevitable question: Will Rima Fakih be stripped of her Miss USA 2010 crown?
The pole dancing pictures are everywhere, partially thanks to TMZ, which gave them national exposure Monday. But it was the Detroit radio program “Mojo In The Morning” that first posted the pictures. In fact, “Mojo In The Morning” sponsored the “Stripper 101″ pole dancing competition back in 2007 …
Detroit Strip Clubs: DODD: Pageantry hits and Misses
May 23, 2010 at 4:48 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No Comments… There she is, Miss Stripper Pole America.”
Old Bert Parks must be turning over in his grave these days about what has become of the latest Miss America (Miss USA). This is not your grandma and grandpa’s beauty title.
I saw the stripper pole contest winning photos of this year’s winner, Rima Fakih, and she would certainly have warranted a handful of singles from any gentleman’s club patron. I just can’t picture 1955 Miss America Lee Meriwether on a stripper pole. Of course, she’s 74 now and that isn’t as pretty a picture as it might have been in the 1950s, but I digress.
I apologize to any younger readers for the Bert Parks reference. Anyone older than 50 knows that Bert, while certainly no Mario Lopez, was the quintessential face of the original Miss America pageant for 25 years and sang that immortal theme song for the winner’s walk down the runway.

Detroit Strip Clubs: Arab American Miss USA at Center of Controversy
May 21, 2010 at 6:00 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsConservative writer, broadcaster and columnist Debbie Schlussel says Rima Fakih should not be Miss USA because of alleged family ties to Hezbollah, a charge the beauty queen dismisses as groundless and hurtful.
Schlussel told VOA that pageant organizer and real estate developer Donald Trump should never have allowed Rima Fakih to compete. “I’m asking her to condemn a terrorist group that has murdered hundreds of innocent Americans. And if she can’t do that, she really should not be Miss USA. And it shouldn’t be for her to quit, it should be for Donald Trump to fire her,” said Schlussel.
There has also been controversy about photos of Fakih before she was Miss Michigan at a so-called “pole dancing” event in a strip club. Rima is fully clothed and the room is full of women wearing a lot less than she is.
