ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Building new hotels, restaurants, homes and stores in the middle of the Jornada del Muerto, an iconic New Mexico desert.
It might sound like a reach to some, but Virgin Galactic says there are lots of opportunities for developers to cash in on the creation of a shimmering space city around New Mexico’s Spaceport America in the Jornada east of Truth or Consequences.
Addressing the New Mexico Commercial Real Estate Development Association, NAIOP, Virgin Galactic Vice-President Will Pomeranz said each space tourist who comes here will bring an entourage that will need a complete spectrum of travel and tourist destination services.
“They are going to be coming with their loved ones, their immediate family and most of them with a lot of others as well,” he said.
So, Pomeranz urged the New Mexico developers to consider investing in the construction of the facilities needed to cater to wealthy space tourists, calling them “a lot of individuals and a lot of companies who have a lot of walking-around money.”
“If you spend $200,000 on a luxury experience, you are probably willing to pay a fair amount for a hotel, and a meal and a rental car,” he added.
New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez has pledged that public funds would not be used for commercial development at the spaceport.
NAIOP members are interested in filling the need.
“This is an industry that we haven't seen,” said Drew Dolan, NAOIP Chairman.
“And from tourism, to hospitality to commercial property, it's going to be an opportunity for us in New Mexico.”
The new executive director of Spaceport America, Christine Anderson, said Virgin Galactic is not the only company coming to do business here.
“We also have several other paying tenants now and we hope to attract others, and we'll be working toward that,” she said, adding “the industry is really growing.”
Anderson said she knows there is a lot of competition from other spaceports in other states and foreign countries.
However, she thinks there will be enough business for all.
“I really think that this is a growing market and in 20, 30 years, this will be commonplace,” she said.
Anderson also promised extensive public access and unique opportunities for students.
Virgin estimates it will be about a year and a half at the earliest before the first paying passengers ride rockets at Spaceport America.
Tickets presently cost $200,000 each, but Pomeranz said with volume in future years, prices might be reduced to about $30,000 each.
LOS ANGELES— An adult film performer has tested positive for HIV, causing porn producers to shut down shoots in Southern California as the diagnosis is confirmed through re-testing, according to an industry group.
Free Speech Coalition executive director Diane Duke told The Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/mX0vin) on Monday that her group became aware of the HIV case Saturday.
A series of tests were being conducted on the performer to confirm the case before anyone the performer might have spread the illness to will be notified to get tested, Duke told The Associated Press.
She didn't know how long that would take.
Duke declined to release the performer's name, age or gender, citing the person's federal right to medical privacy. She also declined to say how her group learned of the case.
The case was found in an out-of-state clinic that doesn't report to California health officials, said Duke.
If the initial case is confirmed, the group will ask two generations of the person's sexual partners to get tested, meaning those who had sex with the performer and the sexual partners of those who had sex with the performer.
The voluntary industry shutdown affects porn producers in the San Fernando Valley, the heart of the multi-billion dollar American porn industry, and includes Hustler and Evil Angel's productions.
The porn industry was shut down similarly in late 2010, after porn actor Derrick Burts was diagnosed HIV positive.
Burts has since gone on to advocate for the mandatory use of condoms in porn with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.
The health advocacy group and state workplace safety officials say state law mandates porn performers to use condoms to protect themselves under the same set of rules that require nurses to wear gloves in hospitals when dealing with bodily fluids.
Cal/OSHA is working to clarify the regulation to make it more specific to porn.
Earlier this month, the health advocacy group announced that it will gather 41,138 petition signatures to get the issue of condoms in porn on the June 2012 ballot.
The ballot measure would ask Los Angeles residents whether porn producers must require performers to use condoms on shoots as a condition of getting a filming permit.
"The question remains how many performers must become infected with HIV and other serous STDs before the industry will clean up its act and government will do the right thing?" said Michael Weinstein, president of AIDS Healthcare Foundation.
The group has unsuccessfully pushed California and Los Angeles County officials to tighten enforcement of condom use on porn sets through legislative attempts, lawsuits and regulatory complaints.
Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is the world's fastest production car with a top speed of 431 km/h:
"Bugatti Veryon SS, the 1200 hp monster, is one of the greatest modern day mechanical achievements. Unfortunately it has one of the biggest pricetags too. Starting at $2,700,000 you too can buy a Veyron SS and experience world's fastest production vehicle, though with a limited top speed of 415 km/h (257.91 mph).
Although the top speed of a Buggati Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is 431.072 km/h (267.856 mph), a record set by Pierre-Henri Raphanel on July 4, 2010, it is electronically limited to 415.07 km/h (257.91 mph) to protect the tires from disintegrating.
