The New York City sex industry isn't glamorous. It's dark, seedy, lurid, and the sex work that the women and, to a lesser degree, men engage in carries the risk of danger, disease, sexual violence, and abduction. There aren't many tools that the sexually exploited demographic can use, but one tool that is at their disposal is condoms. With 50 percent of streetwalkers being African American and 25 percent being Latino, and the average age of prostitute in the United States being between the ages of 12-14 years old; it's ethic teenagers who continue to suffer HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases at a high rate -particularly when police confiscate their condoms, a form harassment that's orchestrated in order to prevent sex workers from turning tricks.

No city does New Year's Eve like New York City. Times Square is the place to be to celebrate the end of the year and the hopes of the next. Instead of watching the action via television specials like "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2012″and "NBC's New Year's Eve with Carson Daly," why not be a part of the fun and experience and a Times Square New Year's Eve yourself?
