Adult Entertainment Studio Pink Visual Joins the ‘Occupy’ Movement
 
 
VAN NUYS, Calif. – Adult entertainment studio Pink Visual announced today that it has joined the ‘Occupy’ movement that has taken the world by storm, releasing a video expressing solidarity with Occupy protestors and detailing the studios’ own efforts to bring about positive social and economic change.
 
“The video is our way of showing support for the Occupy movement and to say we’ve had enough with the status quo, too,” said Pink Visual President Allison Vivas. “It’s high time that the powers-that-be heard the voice of the people, a righteous chorus of which the voice of Pink Visual is now a part.”
 
Pink Visual’s video addresses a variety of points that are salient to the ongoing socioeconomic policy debate that the Occupy movement has sparked, including the government’s bailout of major financial institutions, the role of private mortgage brokers in the subprime housing loan debacle, the contentious issue of “corporate personhood” and questionable merits of “trickle-down” economics.
 
In addition to the video released today, Vivas has penned a five-point plan to help turn the country around.
 
“I’m not an economist, but given how completely wrong most economists were about the stability of the U.S. economy back before the housing bubble burst, maybe that’s a good thing where my plan is concerned,” Vivas said. “I know enough to realize that handing out $700 billion with no strings attached was not such a great idea, at least.”
 
To view Pink Visual’s Occupy-related video and to read Vivas’ five-point plan, go to www.pinkvisual.com/obd. To view the video in a ‘SFW’ environment, watch it on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxCzm0u-Cxg

AVN Adult Entertainment Expo Divorces from CEA for CES 2012  

 

No longer will video games and consumer electronic geeks mingle with porn stars

The familiar scene of video game and consumer electronics journalists and assorted geeks walking the halls of CEA's annual CES show alongside porn stars is now a thing of the past. CES 2012 will take place January 10-13, while the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE), AVN Novelty Expo (ANE) and the AVN Awards will now be a week later January 18–21 and move to a new locale at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. AEE will run January 18–21, ANE will take place January 18–20 and the must-attend AVN Awards will be Saturday, January 21 in the Pearl Concert Theater at the Palms. Porn star Dana Dearmond talks video games from CES 2011 in the video below, which is the type of interview that will become less common starting in 2012.

“After having hosted the AVN Awards for the past two years, the Palms is excited to help AVN take the Adult Entertainment Expo and the Adult Novelty Expo in a new direction,” said George J. Maloof, Jr., chairman of the Palms Resort Casino. “Our world-class facilities and professional staff will make the January shows a great success.”

The AVN Adult Entertainment Expo is a one-of-a-kind tradeshow experience that over its history has set the standard for adult conventions. It combines business-to-business transactions, networking, knowledge-sharing, talent appearances, and special presentations for the public. The largest event of its kind, AEE showcases the most comprehensive collection of adult talent, exhibitors, and products, which attracts buyers and fans from around the world.

The change marks a new vision for AEE. Attendees and exhibitors of AEE will experience something unique in 2012. Based on exhibitor and attendee feedback, for instance, AEE will not run concurrent with CES, which will minimize travel expenses and maximize networking opportunities for exhibitors. The events will still overlap with other consumer shows in Las Vegas, including SHOT Show, an annual shooting and hunter show that brings more than 50,000 people into the city. (AEE is not affiliated with SHOT Show.)

“The Palms has been a fantastic venue for us,” said AVN founder Paul Fishbein. “The intimacy of the space and the helpfulness and enthusiasm of the management and staff guarantee that our exhibitors and attendees will have a superior environment in which to do business.”

The AEE is presented by Home Entertainment Events, which is a joint venture in which the Entertainment Merchants Association has an interest.
