WASHINGTON — Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.), chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said Sunday he has turned down a request to meet with the Colombian prostitute purportedly at the center of the Secret Service scandal. 
King, in a written statement, said the lawyer for Dania Londono Suarez reached out to his staff to ask for a meeting in his Capitol Hill office. King, noting that the meeting would have invited a media “circus,” said he declined. 
…
Suarez is the 24-year-old escort whose dispute over a fee with a Secret Service member exposed the scandal, in which agents are accused of partying and hiring prostitutes as they prepared for President Barack Obama’s trip to Cartagena last month.

Make no mistake, crime has driven some families from the neighborhood but Dallas police, buoyed by strong support from some neighborhood leaders and crime watch groups, are already seeing some improvements.
“When we say, ‘this area’s changed,’ the area has changed, but it has some problems still,” said Lt. Charles Epperson.
People are standing up by getting involved.
Long after midnight, Kimberly Stanley greets guests and walks every inch of her property, making sure there are no problems or problem people.
“We’re looking for mainly doors open, noise, rooms that you know have not been rented,” she said.
Stanley is the kind of property manager police like to see. Other places with less conscientious owners and managers are full of problems.
“Drug possession, prostitution, stuff like that,” Epperson said. “We’ve had to correct some behaviors up here.”

Dallas Voice: Billy is an unusual protagonist; he’s legitimately bisexual — not merely experimenting. Does someone’s sexuality, if more complex, make him/her more interesting to you as a writer?  John Irving: Sexual outsiders or misfits interest me — they are brave. I also fear for them; narrow-minded people shun them, or seek to harm them. Garp’s mother (in The World According to Garp) has sex once — with a comatose man — and stops for life. Dr. Larch (the ether-addicted abortionist in The Cider House Rules) also has sex only once — with a prostitute. The narrator of A Prayer for Owen Meany, who is called (behind his back) a “nonpracticing homosexual,” never has sex. You have to see Billy Abbott — the main character and bisexual narrator of In One Person — in this context. Bisexual men like Billy have always been distrusted.

Spider and Fly are justly proud of their various and numerous abilities. But Worm has self esteem issues; he doesn’t seem to have any special gifts. Clinton Greenspan plays this character with endearing vulnerability, but never stoops to smarmy pathos. Both he and director Bob Hess seem to realize that this is, after all, a musical comedy. Still, you get a tangible sense of yearning when Worm dares to dream of “Big Things.”
Fly, meanwhile, dreams of being a superhero. (Yes, she argues, girls are eligible for that ambition.) Lindsay Gee is a kinetic treat in the role. Her “Fly Girl” is one of the best solo numbers in the show.
If you saw Adam Garst as the loathsome cyber prankster in dark play or stories for boys at the Out of the Loop Fringe Festival earlier this year, you may have longed to see this talented young actor in a more sympathetic role. Long no more. Garst is likeable, and only a tad snobbish, as Spider. He brags about his limber “Legs,” joined by Gee and the dance ensemble. And when it’s time to shed that spidery skin, the molting ritual becomes (what else) a strip tease.

NEW HAVEN — Cedar Hill residents celebrated a small victory in their crusade against Diamond Properties Management LLC., whose owners they deemed “slumlords” since they converted an apartment building to an illegal rooming house several years ago.
Diamond Properties was due in front of the Board of Zoning Appeals Tuesday night seeking a special exception to allow no parking spaces where five are required for a 13-unit rooming house at 1296 State St. That would have been the first step toward getting legal approval for the rooming house, which residents said has brought drugs and prostitution to the neighborhood.
The applicants withdrew their request Tuesday afternoon after Thomas Talbot, deputy director of zoning, submitted a document explaining why their request would likely be denied by the BZA, but about a dozen Cedar Hill residents still showed up, adamant to voice their concerns.

Nobody really gives a shit about bad methodology when it’s an obviously dumb topic, like smuttiness or impotence (which we’re pretty sure has very little do with your ZIP code). But publications that actually purport to rank things like how “green” a city is, how healthy its citizens are, or what it’s like to live there should probably work a little harder to make their data accessible and their lists somewhat factually-based.
So in response to this latest bit of obvious click-desperation from Washboard Abs Quarterly, we say two things: we won’t fall for it by re-blogging your smut list, Men’s Health! No way! Not this time!
And also: fifteenth? Are you fucking kidding me? Have you seen our strip clubs? We may not actually have the highest number, as someone who bothered to do the research found, but ours are so nice. Shouldn’t strip clubs be counted as a metric of smuttiness? Doesn’t Dallas deserve to rank a little higher than those sexless hipsters down in Austin, who came in at number 10, for crying out loud? We demand a recount.

The works of Zoe Crosher and Morehshin Allahyari make for an interesting contrast in terms of self-representation. A selection from Crosher’s project on Michelle DuBois is on view at the Contemporary. The premise is that DuBois, a globe-trotting call girl of the 1980s, bequeathed to Crosher a personal photographic archive recording her many theatrical exploits (here, for example, dressing up as Mae West), which in turn serves as the basis for Crosher’s own image and text generation. (Another segment of the DuBois project was also recently a hit here at the art fair.) Among the many offspring of Andy Warhol and Cindy Sherman, Crosher is indisputably among the most intelligent and ambitious. For Allahyari’s Romantic Self-Exiles, on view at Oliver Francis Gallery, the artist projects videos taken from the Tehran cityscape around the gallery walls, across an arrangement of transparent Plexiglas boxes that resemble a skyline, expressing one’s longing for an absent, beloved place. It’s hard not to think that Allahyari’s self-presentation is more serious and inspiring than Crosher’s, but both projects are credible and engaging.

Gonzalez has spent months looking into the city’s municipal court problems. He plans to unveil his proposals for improvement to City Council members within a few weeks. But fixing the system will be anything but easy.
Antiquated technology
In a decaying building on Main Street, 11 full-time and 18 part-time Dallas judges occupy the center of a justice system that generates cases for everything from traffic infractions and city-ordinance violations to minor assaults. Last fiscal year, the case total topped 302,000.
With the judges at the hub, the rest of a sprawling machine fans out: prosecutors, defense lawyers, court administrators and City Hall officials, along with the police and code officers dispatched across the city each day to try to hold people accountable for running red lights, violating building codes, soliciting prostitutes, leaving dogs off leashes.
