Tampa Adult Entertainment: Stormy Relationship

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

JULY 29–In a setback to her nascent U.S. Senate campaign, porn star Stormy Daniels (real name: Stephanie Clifford) was arrested Saturday afternoon for domestic violence after she allegedly battered her husband because she was “upset because the way the laundry had been done.” Clifford, who has said she is interested in challenging Republican David Vitter next year for his Senate seat from Louisiana, was nabbed for striking her husband “Michael on his head with her hands several times,” according to a Tampa Bay Police Department report. Clifford, 30, told cops that she did not intentionally hit her husband, but acknowledged tossing a potted plant in the kitchen sink, throwing the couple’s wedding album on the floor, and breaking some candles. The adult film actress, pictured in the below mug shot, was briefly booked into the Hillsborough County jail, where she was later released on $1000 bond. Clifford, who decided to challenge Vitter after the incumbent admitted patronizing a prostitution ring, has formed an exploratory committee in her home state of Louisiana. Its slogan is “Stormy Daniels: Screwing People Honestly.” (6 pages)

Tampa Escorts: Porn star mulling La. Senate race has a tough week

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

NEW ORLEANS — It’s been a tough week for porn actress Stormy Daniels — complete with a domestic violence charge and a car explosion — as she continues to mull a U.S. Senate bid that could make life uncomfortable for incumbent first-term Louisiana Republican David Vitter, still recovering from a sex scandal.
Daniels was arrested Saturday on a domestic violence battery charge after she allegedly hit her husband at their home in Tampa, Fla., during a dispute about laundry and unpaid bills.
Her arrest came two days after her political adviser in Louisiana, Brian Welsh, said his parked 1996 Audi may have been blown up by someone on July 23 outside his apartment in an upscale downtown area of New Orleans.
“It’s something out of The Sopranos,” said Edward E. Chervenak, a professor of politics at the University of New Orleans. “Very weird.”
In May, Daniels announced that she was interested in a 2010 run for the Senate seat held by Vitter, whose family-values reputation was marred in 2007 when his name was linked to a Washington prostitution ring.

Tampa Strip Clubs: Can Paula White be savior for Without Walls?

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

… I come to church to be fed spiritually,” said Saul Bruno Encarnacion, who started attending Without Walls four years ago. “That wasn’t happening anymore. But with Pastor Paula, I always learn something. She’s a great preacher and a great teacher.”
Paula’s return
Religious experts and those who follow charismatic and Pentecostal preachers see Paula’s return as a necessity for her and the church.
Without Walls stumbled in the absence of Paula, whose ministry increasingly took her away from Tampa long before she and Randy divorced.
Randy, who struggled with the death of his 30-year-old daughter from his first marriage, often left preaching duties to associate pastors or guest ministers. He talked openly about wanting to move to Malibu, Calif. Sometimes congregants were surprised when Randy’s sermons included anecdotes about going to bars, cavorting with bikers and hanging out with former strippers.
Barbara Burgos, a small-business owner from South Tampa, left Without Walls almost a year ago because of Randy’s “obsession with talking about strippers and porn.”

Tampa Escorts: Slightly different verdict has same result in retrial

Slightly different verdict has same result in retrial
By Curtis Krueger, Times Staff Writer In Print: Saturday, July 25, 2009
LARGO — In his second trial for killing a 42-year-old Pinellas Park prostitute, Leo Richard Berube was convicted of second-degree murder instead of first-degree murder.
The distinction may not make a difference.
Berube was serving a mandatory life sentence after his 2006 first-degree murder conviction for killing Ann Griffith, but earlier this year an appeals court said he should get a new trial.
He was convicted Friday of second-degree murder, which does not always carry a life sentence. But because Berube committed the 2003 murder less than three years after getting out of prison, he falls under a law that requires he be sentenced to life in prison again, assistant state attorney Frank Piazza said.

2009 RotoRob NFL Draft Kit: Tampa Bay Buccaneers Team Preview
We’re back with more of the 2009 RotoRob NFL Draft Kit with yet another team preview (we’re on the home stretch now, with just a half a dozen teams left). We’re going to try to shoot out all these team previews and then start releasing the kit’s other goodies (cheat sheets, sleepers/busts lists, etc.). Today also marks the first column from our newest writer, Matt Wilson. Help me welcome Matt to the site; he’ll be contributing baseball and football content.
Before we figure out what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have actually kept from last year’s 9-7 team, one must wonder what the hell Michael Vick was thinking visiting a strip club on the night he’s released from house arrest.
