[QUOTE=Happtrav; 1450673]I am just about to close my account on whatsyourprice. Here is a quick summary:
1. You buy credits upfront. 20 credits are required to communicate with a girl.
2. Most girls want $+ to meet. The girls will not communicate with you beforehand. They will setup a dinner date. Show up for a dinner date. Give you a lecture and drama about how they are no prostitutes, demand the money and leave. Never to be heard from again.
Do the math: Girl makes $+ one night a week. That is a good living. And she never has to see you again. The site is full of College girls, and good looking woman players.
But here is a big Positive: There is a saying,"Money makes the Coochie go Ouh" Unlike other online sites, where you email woman and never hear back from them, you actually hear back from the woman on whatsyourprice. When money is involved the response is guaranteed. Results however are not guaranteed.
So unless you are a big Looser, who is extremely desparate, and has to pay woman to showup for dinner, avoid this site. Also out of the 20+ girls I communicated with, only 2 actually showed. Oh yeah, the site clearly says, do not expect anymore than dinner on the first date.
And yeah, obviously no refunds on whatsyourprice.[/QUOTE]I'm down to try it. A fellow hobby bud told me porno chicks use it to communicate with hobbies. College chicks. I'd be willing to meet up a chick and put an offer on the table.
Reminds me of a friend who got a girl to give his friend head in an elevator. It cost him quite a penny, but she did it. It was also Vegas, so that says a lot!
I'll report if and when I get a chance to check it out.

Geez, what's a fellow to do?
I apologize in advance of someone else already posted this. I have never posted on the Chicago board, but if you have read (or heard of) the book Freakonomics, then you might be interested in the fact that the same guys have conducted a study of prostitution on Chicago. I have attached a news report of the study, and an attachment of the full study.
In the Windy City, prostitutes sleep with police more often than get arrested by them.

Another dispatch on the Freakonomics effect: University of Chicago economist Steven Levitt (Mr. Freakonomics himself) and his collaborator Sudhir Venkatesh, a Columbia University sociologist who previously worked with Levitt to measure the average wages of street-level drug dealers (pdf) , have teamed up to study the economics of street prostitutes in Chicago.
Their recent working paper (pdf) , which they presented at this weekend's ASSA conference (the yearly get-together where social scientists from around the world preview their research) in New Orleans, is based on surveys conducted with prostitutes and pimps in Chicago neighborhoods and incident data from the Chicago Police Department. The findings? Street prostitution yields an average wage of $27 an hour, hardly worth it considering the extraordinary occupational hazards.
What's particularly interesting is the authors' section on bargaining and the law. They estimate that roughly 3 percent of all tricks performed by prostitutes who aren't working with pimps are freebies given to police to avoid arrest. In fact, prostitutes get officially arrested only once per 450 tricks or so, leading the authors to conclude that "a prostitute is more likely to have sex with a police officer than to get officially arrested by one." When freebies given to gang members are factored in, about one in 20 tricks go solely for protection and the "privilege" of plying their trade.
The most depressing news is the woeful lack of condom use. Just as with recent studies of Mexican and Indian prostitutes, Levitt and Venkatesh find that payments go up substantially when condoms aren't used. And plenty of johns are apparently happy to pay the premium: Condoms only get used about 20 percent of the time, the authors estimate. Some protection, it seems, is worth a freebie; others go out the window for a few extra dollars.

Great books, easy reads and interesting conclusions. Unfortunately the link was moved. Would enjoy reading this though.

[quote]A Corona Police Department officer has been fired and another resigned in connection with a Craigslist sting they were conducting without approval.
[url]http://www.pe.com/local-news/riverside-county/corona/[/url]
[url]http://www.pe.com/local-news/riverside-county/corona/corona-headlines-index/20120803-corona-officer-convicted-of-filing-false-police-report.ece[/url]
A Corona police officer was accused of lying in court to cover up a drugs-for-sex exchange sting operation he and another officer were running on Craigslist against department orders, court documents state.
Corona Police Officer David Stephenson Durant. 41, of Corona, told an investigator that he was under pressure to make more arrests and wanted to learn about narcotics enforcement. In the department, such stings typically are reserved for detectives.
Durant was convicted of misdemeanor falsifying a police report and misdemeanor contempt of court. He was sentenced July 25 to 120 days in Riverside County Sheriff's Department custody by electronic ankle monitoring, and ordered to serve three years probation, court records show.
An original felony perjury charge against him was dropped as part of a plea deal, Deputy District Attorney Michael Brusselback said.
The conviction comes on the heels of a criminal investigation into another Corona officer, Margaret Bell, who was recently charged for allegedly failing to report child abuse.
Durant, fired Feb. 7 after more than 10 years at the department, said on Wednesday, Aug. 1, that he could not comment on the case.
'I'm moving forward with my life, ' Durant said. 'I don't have any plans on staying in law enforcement. I have other plans of moving into the private sector. It's been a hard ordeal for my family for the year it was being dealt with. '
In court documents, Durant told an investigator he didn't know about the Craigslist scheme.
A second officer, Richard Segovia, resigned Sept. 14 after four years in the department, according to Corona city officials. It was unclear why he continued to conduct the stings after being told to stop.
The Riverside County district attorney's office investigated Segovia, but found he did not break any laws, Brusselback said. Segovia omitted the Craigslist scheme from his police reports, but admitted on the witness stand that he used the website, Brusselback said.
Segovia, now supervisor of airport operations for the city of Austin, Texas, declined to comment on Thursday, Aug. 2.
The patrol officers had been using a Craigslist sting to make arrests, court records show. Segovia started the 'party and play' stings, in which he posed as women in ads looking for methamphetamine in exchange for sex, court documents state.
The stings are a legal investigative tool used by law enforcement. But typically, they are conducted by trained detectives, approved by supervisors, coordinated with other law enforcement agencies that may be working drug cases in the area and overseen by a special unit, experts say.
'We don't particularly like that being done by patrol-level officers, ' Corona Police Department spokeswoman Sgt. Kim Velasco said. 'They can't be tied up doing this kind of investigation, plus they don't always have the expertise needed. '
In Corona, a specialized narcotics unit handles drug stings, she said.
At one point, Segovia was told by the department to stop the Craigslist stings and was being investigated within the department, court documents show. But he continued, court documents state.
He also tried to cover his activity up in court on the stand, records showed.
'Segovia had come perilously close to perjuring himself. In his efforts to keep these activities secret and, in fact, . Continued to employ online decoys, despite orders to stop, ' documents in support of an arrest warrant showed.
Segovia was eventually listed as a Brady officer, a legal term used for an officer whose credibility is questioned and whose status must be disclosed to a defendant's attorneys. This could put criminal cases involving that officer in jeopardy, experts say.
In an effort to continue the arrests but distance himself from them, Segovia involved Durant, court records show.
'Durant, himself under pressure to make more arrests and eager to learn about narcotics enforcement, willingly participated, ' the arrest document filed by district attorney's office investigator Matthew Weinstein stated.
Neither officer mentioned the online, undercover aspect of the arrests in their reports, the documents showed.
But during prosecution of one of the drug cases in March 2011, Durant was suspected of giving false testimony by not telling Superior Court Judge Edward Webster when under oath that Segovia directed him to an arrest after connecting with the defendant on Craigslist.
'He had tried to cover up for Segovia, ' Brusselback said.
Durant told Webster that the arrest was 'almost like luck of the draw, ' court testimony records show.
Webster remembered similarities between the case and a previous drug case he heard in which Segovia testified about using the Craigslist scheme, court documents say. It was unclear exactly what similarities triggered the judge to link the two cases.
The judge's suspicion triggered a criminal investigation into Durant's testimony that led to the conviction, Brusselback said.
'It was absolutely coincidental, ' Brusselback said.
Corona police and district attorney's officials say they did not dismiss any of the cases that Durant and Segovia investigated together. They said the arrests were still legitimate because the defendants had drugs.
Brusselback said that cases involving the two could prove difficult to prosecute.
Cases involving officers lying under oath or falsifying police reports are serious offenses, Brusselback said.
'The veracity of an officer is always at issue in any case. And once that's been compromised, our system breaks down in any case they've been involved in. It's pivotal that an officer is always honest, ' he said.[/quote](Lovingly, The Tiny Dancer)

Give us a summary.
Anderson Cooper is ex-CIA. He's probably doing CIA duty to put the heat on the industry. A culture of bathhouses and prostitution that is frequented by Chicago "boys-club" politicians. It all comes full circle.

66 men arrested in Cook County following nationwide prostitution sting.
By Barbara Vitello.
Sixty-six men were arrested in Cook County this month as part of a nationwide prostitution sweep dubbed 'Operation: Buyer Beware. '
Twenty law enforcement agencies in 11 states conducted simultaneous stings on the streets, in hotels and over the Internet over a 10-day period earlier this month in an effort to curtail human trafficking, according to the Cook County Sheriff's Department, which served as the lead coordinating agency for the sweep.
'Human trafficking is a worldwide concern that is affecting even the smallest of communities and neighborhoods and occurring in even the safest of places, ' said Sheriff Tom Dart in a prepared statement.
The release said local participants included officers from the Cook and Kane County sheriff's departments and from the Aurora and Elgin police departments. Information on the number of Kane County arrests was not immediately available.
Law enforcement agencies have increasingly targeted buyers of sex, also known as 'Johns, ' in an effort to end prostitution and sex trafficking, authorities said.
Of the 268 men arrested on charges of soliciting sex as part of the nationwide operation. 101 received civil citations or were charged with misdemeanors, including prostitution. Nine were arrested on charges of pimping or pandering. Authorities imposed nearly $300, 000 in fines.
Now here is some real police work. 66 men arrested and yet we have.
NUMBER OF PEOPLE SHOT IN CHICAGO AS OF Aug 7, 2012.
1647 people
