New York Entrepreneur Redefines the Term Sugar Daddy

NY entrepreneur and gentleman about town Alan "Action" Schneider unashamedly embraces the term Sugar Daddy.

San Francisco, CA, USA (April 10, 2013) -- Contact: Tom Andrews, 415/507-9962

NY entrepreneur and gentleman about town Alan "Action" Schneider unashamedly embraces the term Sugar Daddy. "With the economy in the condition it is in, women are gravitating to the traditional relationship where the man is the provider," says Mr. Schneider. "Many women appreciate men who extend to them mentorship, chivalry, attention, and financial and emotional assistance. Throughout history and up to the current day, these relationships simply work. Despite the dim view that some may have of sugar daddy/sugar baby relationships, their numbers are increasing rapidly and are resulting in a new generation of non-traditional as well as traditional relationships."

Mr. Schneider has thrown more and larger Sugar Daddy parties than anyone on the planet. The 49 year old single parent passionately defends Sugar Daddy parties, "Where the Gorgeous Meet the Generous."

To those who define Sugar Daddy relationships as prostitution, Mr. Schneider responds that "Sugar Daddy relationships are ongoing relationships, not one night stands, and they are as monogamous as other relationships, often more so. Many Sugar Daddy relationships evolve into marriage or long term committed relationships. They are based on mutual spoiling and pampering... and what's wrong with that?" They are no different than a marriage between a successful man and his wife who he takes care of financially and who takes care of him in every way she can. Partners in the sugar lifestyle believe that in this modern era there is no reason you can't live that same kind of supportive relationship without getting married."

Mr. Schneider's next Sugar Daddy party, Make-up, Models and Mayhem, will be on Wednesday, April 25, 2013, 7pm to 12:30am, at New York's most famous nightclub, Copacabana, 268 W 47th St, NYC. A huge crowd is expected, including 200 models. The party features both a Live Salsa Band and a Disco Band, Gourmet Food & Dessert Bar, and much more. The cost is $40/door for women and $80/door for gentlemen. Tickets may be purchased at http://www.alanactionmodels.eventbrite.com. Promo discount codes are available at 1-855-AlanAction, x5.

The parties are co-sponsored by SugarDaddyFor Me.com, the world's largest dating website for sugar daddies and sugar babies (four million members); and Alan Action Events. Adults of all ages are welcome. Media interviews with Alan "Action" Schneider can be scheduled by calling 415-507-9962.

PAC Launches 2014 Campaign Program To Stop Amnesty Legislation in DC

ALIPAC is launching their 2014 candidate and campaign program to put the brakes on any legislation that would put America's borders on a path to destruction by legalizing illegal aliens.

Raleigh, NC, USA (April 10, 2013) -- Contact: Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) 866 703-0864 / press@alipac.us

In response to illegal invader supporters marching in American streets today demanding amnesty legislation that is expected soon in Washington, ALIPAC is launching their 2014 candidate and campaign program to put the brakes on any legislation that would put America's borders on a path to destruction by legalizing illegal aliens.

"The vast majority of Americans want border and immigration law enforcement instead of any form of amnesty for illegal invaders," said William Gheen President of ALIPAC who was cited in the national and global media last week opposing the AP style change discarding the term 'illegal immigrant.' "By starting our 2014 campaign efforts early, we will send a clear message to all incumbent lawmakers that they will not be able to hide any cloture or actual votes on amnesty from their constituents!"

ALIPAC was formed on September 11, 2004 in honor of the victims of 9/11 who were killed due to the inadequate enforcement of America's existing immigration laws, just like the DC sniper victims and the thousands of Americans killed each year on American soil by illegal invaders. Millions of American are displaced in their jobs and billions of dollars are lost to illegals due to depreciated wages and stolen taxpayer resources.

ALIPAC opposes Obama's DACA (Deferrred Action) amnesty because it is unlawful, unconstitutional, and not backed by any legislation or lawmaker voters.

ALIPAC opposes any new legislation that would rubber stamp Obama's dictatorial actions, because changing America's laws to accommodate millions of illegal invaders is sending the message around the world that America's defenses are down and that illegal immigration will not be stopped. While over 80% of Americans want the current borders of the United States enforced, the Executive Branch refuses to comply.

Such hopes for future border security or immigration law enforcement designed to protect American jobs, property, and lives from invasion will vanish if Comprehensive Immigration Reform Amnesty passes, placing millions of illegal invaders on a path to voting rights and a radical transformation of American politics which will displace over 15 million American voters.

ALIPAC is currently endorsing more than 100 members of Congress that the organization feels can be counted on to oppose Amnesty for illegal aliens CLICK HERE FOR LIST.
