New bar owners surprise neighbors

TUCSON – The Mint Cocktails bar on Grant Road was recently purchased by new owners. The business partners also happen to operate Wild Boys, a group of men who provide entertainment to women.
“I think as far as calling us strippers, I’d rather be an entertainer. It’s not about going down and showing skin. It’s about putting on a show that’s professional done and tasteful, that women enjoy,” explained Chris Smith, one of the owners.
Owners Chris Smith and Skyy Garcia say they want to keep the regulars who frequent the bar during the day but they also want to offer karaoke, comedians, live bands and the Wild Boys entertainment a couple nights each week. Ronni Kotwica, president of the Palo Verde Neighborhood Association said when she and her fellow neighbors first met with Garcia and Smith, the two never mentioned the Wild Boys, “it just brings in a bad element and we want to cut that off before it begins.”

The talk show host was selected for the Hall of Famous Missourians by term-limited House Speaker Steven Tilley, a Republican who like Limbaugh is from southeast Missouri. Tilley wants to display Limbaugh’s bust in the Capitol alongside other members of the Hall of Famous Missourians, including President Harry Truman, Mark Twain and Walt Disney – but that plan has already faced controversy.
Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon’s administration released a memo Monday indicating that a state board – not the House speaker – has the authority to determine what items are displayed in the third floor Capitol Rotunda where the busts are located. House Minority Leader Mike Talboy, D-Kansas City, also asserted that Tilley has no legal authority to order Limbaugh’s bust to be placed in the Capitol Rotunda.
“The secrecy and exclusion of the public demonstrates that even Republicans are embarrassed at honoring someone who recently called a female college student with whom he disagreed a ’slut’ and a ‘prostitute,’” Talboy said.

Lessner, aka Sam Xavier, had been struggling with the disease for more than two years and passed away due to liver failure in early May in Tucson, Ariz., where he lived.
“He was just a great guy. It was very sad to hear,” Christopher said. “I partied with him, went to dinners with him. He was a good friend. I became friends with him back in New York.”
Lessner got his start in the adult entertainment business doing sales in his native New York in the mid-1970s. He went on to form Xavier Productions, which successfully sold explicit magazines and film reels by mail order before launching Big Top Video in 1982. Lessner eventually moved to Tucson and built what arguably was the premier big-bust company in porn during the mid-’90s.

The indictment doesn’t specify which parent is suspected of inflicting the injuries. The child abuse counts allege Olivia Paige Martinez, 20, and Jonathan Niles Kesterson, 26, either intentionally and knowingly hurt Vanessa under circumstances likely to cause death or permitted her to be placed in a situation in which her health was endangered.
On April 12, Kesterson was arrested in San Diego on a weapons charge. While speaking with police, he said his daughter Vanessa had died of sudden infant death syndrome while her mother was watching her on Jan. 8. Fearing state CPS would take their older child away, Kesterson said he and Martinez buried Vanessa in the desert.
Martinez said Kesterson was watching the baby while she worked at a Tucson strip club, and when she got home, the baby was dead.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is facing questions Wednesday from a Senate panel on the Secret Service prostitution scandal that embarrassed the White House and overshadowed the president’s visit to a Latin American summit.
…
Some of the Judiciary Committee members still had questions. Ranking Republican Charles Grassley of Iowa, for example, wants to know whether Napolitano’s inspector general has opened an independent investigation. Lawmakers across Congress say they are concerned about the security risk posed by the proximity the prostitutes – as many as 20, all foreign nationals – had to personnel with sensitive information on the president’s plans.

In a similar but unrelated incident, Panetta said Tuesday that three Marines on a U.S. Embassy security team and one embassy staff member were punished for allegedly pushing a prostitute out of a car in Brasilia, Brazil, last year after a dispute over payment. Panetta, speaking in Brasilia, said he had “no tolerance for that kind of conduct.”
