… Forgive my vengeful ways” should be what the Logo execs write in my Christmas card. They should also enclose a check for $25 by way of apology. (My time is not all that valuable after all, and let’s be honest. I’d be watching something just as dreadful if not for this show.) But let’s stop dreaming of a fair world, and instead focus on the “Forgive My Vengeful Ways” episode of The A-List Dallas.
I don’t mind a little wood in the face. Levi and Chase are hitting some golf balls and drinking drinks. After a few strokes, Chase starts asking Levi some tough questions about Inchwear. He wants to know about the vendor problems. He wants to hear about cash problems. And he wants to know about possible investors (possibly blocking out the meeting with Chesty LaRue from last week; I’m still trying.), before offering up some cash. Levi is reluctant. “Any time you take money from people you’re sleeping with, you’re a prostitute,” he explains. This is apparently much different from being an attention whore.

Constructed in 1936 by Purple Gang mobster Al Wertheimer (best known for co-orchestrating the Valentine’s Day Massacre with Al Capone), the hotel known as The Colonial House quickly became the town’s hot destination, known primarily as a speakeasy, brothel and gambling house. In 1951, during the heyday of Palm Springs, the property was sold to Robert Howard and renamed the Howard Manor, where it welcomed guests like Frank Sinatra, Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin and boxing great Jack Dempsey over the next 25 years. After an extensive $17-million renovation with designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard, the Colony Palms Hotel is back to reassert its place in the new vibrant-again Palm Springs. We spoke with David Dittmer, the General Manager of the Colony Palms Hotel, to get an insider’s look at his hotel:

But whatever calmness continued through the next section, it disappears in the unsettling duet, “Freedom.” Here, Marci Waddle expresses the agony of bondage. Wearing a skimpy red dress, her hair disheveled, she lies crumpled on the floor, her hands frantically twitching. When she looks up, her face displays fear and despair.
She has reason for fear, for a man with a spear and chains stomps in, pulls out an imaginary key to enter the desperate woman’s prison, and yanks her around by the hair. No subtlety here.
After a brutal round of kicks, punches and yanks, he eventually leaves, locking her again in her cell. It’s rather jarring compared to the rest of the work.
Some peace returns in the last section “Dancing Over You.” The three women seen earlier return to dance calmly over the prostitute’s slumped-over figure. By now, however, the same voice that had earlier proclaimed “Lord, open up your arms and set thousands of women free” takes on the impassioned tone of a mega-church preacher, whipping up a frenzy for an invisible congregation.

Suspects in Texas prosecution ring re-arraigned
Several suspects accused of forcing women into prostitution in West Texas are facing more serious charges in the case.
Seven of the 10 people linked to the ring will be re-arraigned Thursday in El Paso, more than a month after they were arrested in Baltimore and extradited to Texas. A grand jury returned a superseding indictment in the case last week.
The suspects are charged with sex trafficking induced by force, fraud or coercion and conspiracy to transport for prostitution. One of them has already been re-arraigned and two others remain in Baltimore.
Authorities say Alarcon Wiggins, a self-proclaimed recording artist, used his ties to the music industry to entice women to move to El Paso and force them into his prostitution scheme.

The funding for homeless shelters here in New York has been cut and the problem with that is that there are very few places for a kid who is LGBTQIespecially for a kid who is currently questioning their sexuality and starting to identify themselvesto find a homeless shelter who will take them in. There aren’t any beds anyway. Their plight is unique and it’s really, really bad. Forty percent of the adults they receive are LGBTQIhuge numberand most of them are on the street.
In the winter they are more likely to suffer from depression, become involved with drugs and enter into prostitution to take care of themselves financially. Winter is especially bad for them and that is why we’re trying to pick up the awareness about homeless LGBTQI youth. The Ali Forney Center is trying to make a plea to the older, more established LGBTQI adults in the community to say, “Please take care of these kids.”

Electric Sky’s filmography is extremely large and extraordinarily varied, its titles ranging from Hookers for Jesus (about a born-again Vegas prostitute) to The Ronnie Wood Show (a talk show starring, of course, the Rolling Stone) to A 3D Guide to Belly Dancing (a 3D guide to belly dancing). To that roster, add one more title: Outsiders, the working title of something Electric Sky wants to shoot inside the Dallas County Jail.
Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez’s office will ask the county commissioners today to sign off on the deal, which, according to today’s meeting agenda, will cost the British production company $1,000 a day, on top of a $25,000 security deposit and other “required insurance … established to cover the additional costs incurred by the County as a result of the filming, including staff time, additional utilities, and wear and tear on the facilities.” Says the vague-ish briefing doc presented to the commissioners:

I have my own little Rosetta Stone, and it’s Hamlet’s Mill, the origin of myth and religion. It’s where all stories come from. I use it as a guide. One of the big creation stories that’s universally accepted is that that when the gods created the world there were these two tricksters, twins, who came in and sang and did a vulgar little dance and the world was created. This all connects back into these ideas of the fall of man and modern Christian ideas.
These are where ideas for Coppertone come in, I just transposed them into a modern sense, this idea of being in whorehouses and taverns and things like that. Lo and behold you read Long Day’s Journey Into Night and he connects it right into─and a lot of our classics are connected into─issues of alcoholism, prostitution, family secrets and lies, of being cheapskates, being things like that.

McCrery appeared calm throughout the hearing as she answered the judge’s questions, wearing handcuffs shackled to a waist belt. Her father, Claude Hughes and brother, Christopher Hughes, attended the plea hearing but refused to comment, leaving the courthouse stoically.
“Today is really a difficult day for the McCrery and Hughes families,” Morrell said outside court. “They are mourning the loss of Camden and struggling with how he died, at the hands of his mother.”
“Today, we have justice for Camden,” Morrell said.
Texas public records show that McCrery was arrested at least twice on prostitution charges and once for possession with intent to distribute drugs. In 2009, she was sentenced to one year in prison for a misdemeanor conviction of prostitution. In 2004, she was sentenced to three years of probation for a felony conviction of possession of a controlled substance.

… Once in control, they allegedly used their criminal enterprise to extract millions of dollars from the company to fund their lavish lifestyles,” said Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer in a prepared statement.
Irving resident John Maxwell became chief executive of FirstPlus in 2007. His brother, Houston lawyer William Maxwell, became “special counsel.” But real power rested with their associates in the Philadelphia area, prosecutors said.
One was Nicodemo Scarfo, whom authorities described as a member of the Lucchese crime family and the son of imprisoned Philadelphia-area mob boss Nicodemo D. “Little Nicky” Scarfo.
Another was a Scarfo associate named Salvatore Pelullo. “If you ever rat, your wives will be [expletive] … and your kids will be sold off as prostitutes,” Pelullo allegedly said in a conversation with a member of the new board after the takeover.
