Clementon Man Can't Pay $150 Fee for Lap Dances Performed by Cheerleaders Employee

 

GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ (November 23, 2018)(CNBNewsnet)--Gloucester City Police were called to Cheerleaders Gentlemen's Club, U.S. Route 130,  on Sunday, November 18 to investigate a complaint against a customer who didn't want to pay for the lap dances he received. 

What is a lap dance? According to the Urban Dictionary a lap dance is usually done by a female to a male, where she dances provocatively, rubbing her ass on his lap and in return the male pays the female for her services.  

On November 18, Gloucester City Police Officer Ben McKinney responded to the Club  for a theft or services complaint.  Upon arrival, it was determined that a (45) year old male resident of Clementon had received six lap dances.  The bill for the lap dances was $150.  The male could not pay for the lap dances and was found to have only $11 on his person.  The management of the club was informed of their options and no criminal charges have been signed as of the time of this report.  The male is no longer welcome at the club.

How to Organize and Run a Successful Pop-Up in Six Easy Steps

 

 

(CNBNewsnet)(November 7,2018)--Pop-ups are incredibly popular and for a good reason. They are fun, can focus primarily on giving an experience that is memorable and fun to their customers and can, more importantly, bring a huge boost to a brand’s awareness and help sell a lot of products all at once. Pop-ups are great for business, and can easily be budgeted for precisely due to their ephemeral nature.

Indeed, the pop-up store is a trend that is here to stay. You can benefit too by opening up your own pop-up store, but first, you need to follow this guide so that you can gain the greatest ROI and see widespread success.

Come Up with a Novel Idea

Perhaps they harken back to a cult era, or perhaps they simply have some fun designs, or perhaps they are art exhibits for sale like this one in LA. Either way, when it comes to designing your pop-up theme, you need it to be interesting and for the experience itself to feel worthwhile. Designing a pop up that looks great in a single photo, but then does not live up to its promise will only sour your company’s reputation. You can make a very successful business by operating sales around different pop-up themes, but you need to put creativity and fun at the center of your focus.

How to Connect with Customers Online

 

(CNBNewsnet)(November 5, 2018)--If your goal is to use the Internet to sell your business’s products, then you’ve got to do more than only focus on that elusive sale. You have to be intent on connecting with your customers, too. This is because, quite simply, if you are unable to forge a relationship with the people that are buying your products online, they won’t want to buy a single thing from you!

Here’s what you need to do connect with your customers online:

 

Indulge in some email marketing

 

Email marketing is not just something that you can do to sell yourself and your products. It’s also a great way to connect with your customers — if you do it correctly, that is. An essential aspect of understanding how to do email marketing properly with the goal being to boost customer connections is learning how to tell stories with the emails that you send out. Doing this will make your business and its brand seem more human, and it’ll help customers TO understand your better when they can relate to the stories that you tell. Something else that you should do when you decide to indulge in some email marketing in this instance is to make sure you send out wishes to your customers every time it is their birthday. If you can afford to, offer them a present at this time as well.

information technology to advance healthcare

Surprising Advancements of Waste Disposal in Canton, Ga

 

(CNBNewsnet)(October 29,2018)--This is 2018, and there is not a single corner on earth where information about environmental issues hasn’t reached the public in one way or another. The

Vaping Is Really Popular in South Jersey. Here’s Why.

  

SOUTH JERSEY (CNBNewsnet)(August 31, 2018)--A few years ago, many believed that vaping would become a one-time trend that would go away as quickly as it came in-style. Fast forward a few years, and vaping is an even bigger hobby and pastime activity than ever before. The industry behind vaping is growing too, and that growth is apparent when you see the wealth of vaping gadgets you can now choose from.

Vaping is particularly popular in South Jersey. Recent studies suggest that more people are taking up vaping as a hobby simply because it is enjoyable. Newer vaporizers and the many flavors of vape juice available today certainly enhance the vaping experience to a new level. There are reasons why vaping is becoming increasingly popular, even today.

Easy to Try

In the early days of vaping, you were stuck with vaporizers designed to look like tobacco cigarettes. The kits didn’t produce that much vapor and the whole experience was more cumbersome than enjoyable. A lot of people didn’t even consider vaping as a hobby because of this.

Today, however, vaping is a trendy thing. Starter kits are designed to be more capable and stylish at the same time. The modern pod system is even more convenient to use, mainly because the devices are compact and very easy to operate.

Choosing a good kit to try is just as easy. Retailers like Blazed Vapes now offer extensive catalogs of starter kits, mods, atomizers, and vape juice flavors to try. You can rely on reviews, articles, forum posts, and YouTube videos to help you pick the right starter kit to buy too.

The State of Business Gas Prices in 2018

 

CNBNewsnet (August 29, 2018)--2018 has been a troubling year for the UK's energy economy as big names such as British Gas are becoming an example for other large energy companies to employ successive prices increases. British Gas' movements have convinced other energy providers that an increase in price is attributable to the global economy. Though that might be true, it’s a much more compelling explanation that energy companies are making the most of what they can before the Domestic Gas and Electricity Bill makes a significant impact on their business tariffs as 2018ends.

A race to increase prices

Big name companies such as EDF Scottish Power and British Gas have already increased their energy prices, blaming their actions on the worldwide market price of wholesale energy. These companies are also raising their price caps which prevents contracts with lower price caps with newer clients. British Gas’ owner Centrica showed figures that wholesale gas prices have increased by 21% while electricity prices are rising by 18%.

Just earlier this year, British Gas imposed a 5.5% increase with their fuel and electricity prices. EDF followed suit, raising their rates by 2.7% and with Scottish Power raising their rate to 5.5%. It’s no longer alarming to see these changes as energy companies are ensuring their competitive prices in the market through their raises.

HOW TO UPGRADE YOUR HOME DECOR

HOW TO GET A MORTGAGE

CNBNews graphics file

(CNBNewsnet)(July 17, 2018)--Some people enjoy renting their home; they like the freedom it gives them to live where they want, and they like the fact that the landlord has a lot of responsibility for upkeep in many cases. However, there are others who would prefer to own their own home, even if that is a difficult thing to do. It’s not impossible, however, to obtain a mortgage, and more lenders are now opening up the opportunity to buyers once more. There must, of course, be certain criteria in place before you are able to get a mortgage; here are some of the most important.

Your Income

When you apply for a mortgage, the first thing that will need to be considered is your income. You will have to show evidence of what you earn, so if you don’t have any pay stubs, you will need to ask your employer to provide them. They may need to create pay stubs to give you if they don’t automatically give them out when you are paid, but this is not a difficult thing to do.

If you are self-employed and therefore don’t have any pay stubs, then a recent tax return will often be sufficient, but it will depend on the lender you are speaking to; each one will have their own set of criteria, so you will need to find out how they deal with those who are self-employed.

Five Biggest Web Design Mistakes

(CNBNewsnet)(July 14, 2018)--A website is of course a major contributing factor when it comes to your online presence, so whatever you do – you want to make sure that you do it right.  When developing your website, you should remember it’s the first thing people will see when they come across you online – so it’s important to make the right first impression. Here are some of the biggest mistakes you could make.

Not Have a Clear Call to Action

It’s all well and good having lots of people visit your site, but you want to make sure that they act once they get there.  You want them to contact you for more information to generate leads, so make sure there is a good data capture tool in there.  That way, as well as getting someone to get in touch with you – you will also have other details such as email, telephone number etc for future marketing.

FINDING THE BEST PLUMBER

(CNBNewsnet)(July 13, 2018)--Plumbers play a very important role in any household. When you need emergency repairs, they will be there to help you. Unless you have knowledge of how to do plumbing at home, you definitely need their help.

There are a lot of local plumbers whom you can call whether it is an emergency situation or not. Not everyone who offers to do the job can be trusted though. You still have to screen them well, so you get a reliable plumber.

Check the license first

Licensed plumbers are more reliable. They won’t be given such a licence unless they have proven their worth. They must have worked for a certain number of hours or have had enough experience before they are given the licence. They must have also passed the practical test. Furthermore, filing a formal complaint against a plumber is easier if you have chosen someone with a licence.

Insurance is a must

An Important Comparison between Wood and Vinyl Fences: Which is Best?

(CNBNewsnet) (July 11, 2018)--Wood has been used for fencing for centuries, and there’s nothing quite like the look and feel of an authentic, vintage wooden fence. As a material, wood has proven its sturdiness and durability, especially if it has been well-treated and sealed. But there’s another material which has also become quite popular in recent times: vinyl. Everyone knows what vinyl is, but it is also now becoming known as an appropriate material for fencing. If you would like to install fencing for a part or portion of your property or for your entire property’s boundary, you may be presented with these two choices, and this can make the process a bit more confusing. Which material should you choose? Here’s an important comparison between wood and vinyl fences: which is best?

Wood and vinyl: the basics

You may already know that wooden fencing can be comprised of different types of wood, and this wood is then treated so it can withstand the elements, especially if it is to be placed outside. But what do you know about vinyl? Essentially speaking, vinyl fencing is a variation of PVC, and it can be easy to maintain and has a long lifespan as well.

Must-Have Gadgets for Your Car

CNBNews Staff

(CNBNewsnet)(May 23, 2018)--Car gadgets are evolving at a faster pace nowadays. Ever since Apple CarPlay and Google Auto became widely available, more smart gadgets were introduced. Anything from in-car entertainment systems to a smart reverse camera can now be added to your car, even when the vehicle isn’t the latest model.

Some car gadgets are more useful than the others. In this article, we are going to focus more on the essentials and talk about the must-have gadgets you should add to your car. Let’s get started, shall we?

BlackVue Dash Cam

Having a dash cam installed is more of a necessity than an option these days. There are so many benefits you can gain from having a dash cam inside the car. For starters, you have clear evidence when you are involved in an accident, which means insurance claims and other matters related to the accident are easier to handle.

The BlackVue DR650S-2CH 32G Dash Cam is about as good as it gets when it comes to dashboard cameras. The kit comes with two cameras, so you can monitor the front and rear of the car. It also supports Full HD recording; you get crisp 1080p video whenever you drive the car.

The initial setup of this camera is a bit tricky. The BlackVue needs to be connected to an OBD II port of your car for it to work optimally. Complete the setup, however, and the camera will also act as a parking camera. It also supports a wide range of surveillance features. For the price, the BlackVue is highly recommended.

5 Reasons You Should Consider Buying a Chest Freezer

 

CNBNews staff

(CNBNewsnet)(May 17, 2018)--For some reason, a lot of people don’t really see the utility of buying a chest freezer. Some may have limited space available and may think that a chest freezer would be a waste. Others might think that because they already have sufficient freezing space in their current refrigerator, there is no need for them to invest in one. But there are many reasons why you should consider investing in a chest freezer. Here are a few of them.

Energy Efficient

Some may think that a huge electrical appliance like a chest freezer would be anything but energy efficient, but current chest freezers consume very little energy. And chest freezers are built with thick insulation that allows them to conserve energy better than some upright freezers. Another thing that is great about chest freezers is that they keep their temperature for a long time and could be a literal life saver in case of a prolonged power outage.
