According to a new Quinnipiac Poll, about half of New York voters believe Muslims have a right to build a mosque in the neighborhood near ground zero.
But many of the same people say that because the location is so sensitive, developers should voluntarily move a proposed Islamic community center somewhere else.
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says that won’t work. “The question will then become, ‘How big should the no-mosque zone be around the World Trade Center site?’ There’s already a mosque four blocks away. Should it be moved?” he says.
‘Solace’ Amid The Commotion
Beyond the controversy, the area just north of the World Trade Center looks a lot like other New York City neighborhoods. There are a Starbucks, some Indian restaurants, a tobacconist and a strip club.

Preston & Steve: Taj Mahal Strip Club
Updated: Wednesday, 01 Sep 2010, 8:55 AM EDTPublished : Wednesday, 01 Sep 2010, 8:55 AM EDT
Plans to put a strip club inside the Taj Mahal Casino in Atlantic City is generating plenty of comments from WMMR’s Preston and Steve.
The radio personalities discussed the casino’s plans Wednesday on “Good Day.” The duo pointed out New Jersey has strict laws dictating behavior inside these clubs so customers won’t see too much. Preston explained “they can’t get away with showing too much because New Jersey prohibits them, they have to wear like, cover up all the super naughty parts because they serve alcohol at this establishment.” The club will open in a few months inside of “Scores” which Mike says is a great steak house.

The Chinatown fire of Jan. 20, 1900, dislocated 4,000 people, destroyed 38 blocks of downtown Honolulu, and left nothing standing but Kaumakapili Church, the structure that fused the conflagration, and the building that housed the firefighters who lost control of the blaze. Yet it killed no one.
That doesn’t mean the fire did not leave a lot of ghosts behind. A new play, “Ghosts in the Plague Year,” by UH drama professor Dennis Carroll and presented by the Kumu Kahua Theatre, breathes new life into these characters.

The Killer Inside Me
Rated MA
Review by David Stratton
Now to THE KILLER INSIDE ME… Lou Ford, CASEY AFFLECK, is deputy sheriff of Central City, West Texas; a self-confident young man still affected by a murky incident in his past, he’s dating Amy, KATE HUDSON, and seems a model citizen. That is until his boss, Tom Bower, orders him to run Joyce, JESSICA ALBA, out of town; a high-class prostitute, Joyce is blackmailing the son of powerful businessman Chester Conway, NED BEATTY; but when Lou meets Joyce, the sparks fly.
Lou has a score to settle with Conway and his son, Elmer, JAY R. FERGUSON, and his latent killer instinct comes to the fore with shattering violence.
Pulp fiction writer Jim Thompson’s book, “THE KILLER INSIDE ME”, was published in 1952 and was filmed by Burt Kennedy in 1975 with Stacy Keach in the leading role; for some reason, that film was barely released. (I caught it in a heavily censored version in the ear …

… It’s beyond disgusting,” he said. “It doesn’t seem like it was about money. It didn’t seem like it was about drugs.”
In 2009, five people were shot in the complex, and residents say squatters have occupied vacant units in the back.
In 2005, a man shot into an Arborwood unit because he was upset a resident wouldn’t sell drugs for him. He killed the woman’s nephew, a 14-year-old sleeping on the couch.
Residents said the complex’s troubles escalated in 2004 when the town council designated the area a redevelopment zone. Condominium owners, fearing the complex would be razed, began selling off units cheaply.
At one point, tennis courts were overrun with vegetation, an adjacent crumbling swimming pool was filled with trash, and utility rooms were locked to discourage their use for prostitution and drug deals.

Philadelphia: Police stated they’ve broken up a Craiglist based prostitution ring near Philadelphia’s airport. Over the past six to eight months, investigators say they have been watching the growth of prostitution in the airport area plus a number of other crimes including robberies, assaults and one homicide – all directly linked to the prostitution ring.
Police were able to track down members of the ring via Craiglist. Officers contacted the group and sent undercover police to the area. Officers entered a hotel in the airport area. Six women and three men were arrested.
The men were apparently driving the women to the location they were to “work” at. After the transaction was complete, they chauffeured them back. The other charges stemmed directly from the prostitute ring and continued to be investigated.
