Tampa Strip Clubs: Lawmakers seek rules for welfare cash

Welfare money spent at theme parks, strip clubs
Lawmakers seek rules for government assistance

TAMPA – Some Florida lawmakers want to stop welfare abuse by setting new rules for where government assistance cards can be used.
Every month, Florida gives needy families million of dollars in temporary cash assistance. It’s supposed to help them cover basic living expenses. But there are no rules that limit where the government assistance (EBT) cards can be used.
…
We even found thousands withdrawn at casinos in Florida and on the Las Vegas strip. We also found withdrawals at two strip clubs.
“It should be easy for the government to say you can’t use EBT in a strip club,” observed Tampa resident Tim Blue.
…
State lawmakers are debating a plan that would ban state benefit withdrawals at strip clubs, casinos and out-of-state ATMs. But there are no guarantees it will pass.

Tampa Strip Clubs: Applicants answer Tampa casting call for Baristas Coffee’s reality show and store

cheyenne — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 23:25:23 +0000

The requirements were simple: You had to know how to use a cellphone, you needed access to Skype and you couldn’t have worked as a stripper.
Baristas Coffee Co. held a casting call Monday outside its soon-to-open Tampa location for people wanting to appear in its new reality show and work in the store.
The two-hour tryouts drew a small but diverse pool, from a 31-year-old single mother of four kids to a former child advocate volunteer. Not to mention a Swedish model in white shorts and a halter.
…
The Baristas girls wear provocative costumes but no pasties or thongs. It’s not like Dolly’s Donuts, the well-publicized topless doughnut shop that operated briefly in Tampa in the mid 1980s. Former strippers don’t make the cut.
…
Tampa’s reputation as a strip club capital didn’t hurt, either, he said.

Tampa Strip Clubs: Mailbag: Rick Scott, Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Tampa strip clubs

Mailbag: Rick Scott, Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Tampa strip clubs
…
“The reality is there is really nothing to account for Tampa’s pretty extraordinary ranking of third nationally in number of strip clubs per capita. It’s not a big city, and it’s not a big convention magnet. I have lived in Miami, and few people can name or locate even one strip club there. They are invisible. But people all over the country can name at least one or more Tampa strip clubs. They seem to be everywhere. So why are there so many? Perhaps that’s a different story than whether or not it is the ‘capital.’ Its new title should perhaps be ‘Strip Club Mecca.’”
…
“I have heard frequently that Tampa’s lax enforcement of rules intended to prohibit ‘lap dancing’ or ‘friction dancing’ — the ’six foot rule’ famously supported by Bob Buckhorn when he was on the City Council — is not the norm. I have no way to learn whether this is true, but …

Tampa Strip Clubs: State Senator Cites Chris Rock Jock in Gambling Debate by Claiming Tampa is …

State Senator Cites Chris Rock Joke in Gambling Debate by Claiming Tampa is the Strip Club Capital of the World
…
“In the words of noted urban planner Chris Rock, Tampa is the ‘strip club capital of the world,’” wrote GQ last year.
“Speaking of needing some rest, Chris Rock (who has joked Tampa is the strip club capital of the world) was spotted at 2001 Odyssey on Dale Mabry,” wrote the Tampa Bay Times in 2008.
We’re not 100 percent sure whether the title originated with Rock, but the Times reported that he cracked the joke while doing a show in Tampa back in 2008: “I hear this is the strip club capital of the world. They teach you pole dancing in the third grade.”
Though it appears both Bogdanoff and Rock are wrong. Tampa is not the strip club capital of the world.

Tampa Strip Clubs: PolitiFact Florida: Is Tampa the ’strip club capital of the world’?

cheyenne — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 08:24:40 +0000

PolitiFact Florida: Is Tampa the ‘strip club capital of the world’?
It came up in Tallahassee this week.
State Sen. Ellyn Bogdanoff, a Fort Lauderdale Republican, wanted to thwart claims that new destination resort casinos she supports would tarnish Florida’s family-friendly rep.
“People do not go to South Beach to see Mickey Mouse. They just don’t,” she said at the end of debate on her gambling bill Monday. “They go there for different reasons. We have the strip club capital of the world in Tampa. I hate to say it out loud, but we do. We have not ruined our family-friendly image.”
It’s been said about Tampa many times, but is it true? PolitiFact Florida decided to review the evidence.
On a more serious note, they also fact-checked an ad from a super PAC targeting Newt Gingrich. The ad has some truth in it, but also one claim that’s Pants on Fire.

Tampa Strip Clubs: Oh, Occupy Tampa, where art thou?

cheyenne — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 05:25:01 +0000

Oh, Occupy Tampa, where art thou?
Occupy Tampa has moved lock, stock, placards, frisbees and skateboards from downtown Tampa to West Tampa.
They’re standing fast, and have morphed from direct action to a holding action, camped on a parcel of land owned by strip club empresario, Joe Redner, over there, backstage, in the wings, while between engagements on the Occupy Tampa main stage, Curtis Hixon Riverfront Park area over on Ashley Drive.
And Occupy Tampa’s next engagement on that main stage will be in August when the Republican National Convention will convene in Tampa for four long days of delegating, voting, and fussin’ and fightin’ inside the Tampa Bay Times Forum, over who carries the GOP banner into the Presidential electiion.
And four long days and nights of fussin’ and fightin’ outside the Forum over who can get arrested faster for throwing things at the massive security force assembled to contain them.
