The president of the United States vacations in Marthas Vineyard. Members of Congress and senators are on a five-week break, and Las Vegas VIPs vacation en masse at California beach spots or jet set off to the French and Italian Rivieras. Big-name celebs are partying in Ibiza rather than at our Strip nightclubs.

These are known as the dog days of summer, when the news business becomes the snooze business. Everything goes quiet, but wait. Stop the presses. Its a Fox News alert!

As an urgent midnight deadline neared, and the clock got ready to tick into early Sunday morning, pens were poised, cameras were ready to click and digital tape recorders were on. Veteran, hard-bitten and heart-hardened journalists were about to get their big break with a major midsummer headline story.

After 100 Pin Up shows under her garter belt, Playboys 2011 Playmate of the Year Claire Sinclair was about to debut a more revealing wardrobe to show off her curves, leaving only a little to the imagination.

The costume change meant she could finally show audiences more than a peek of the perky points behind the bustier not completely topless but as near as could be. Media and audiences since the shows debut March 2 had wondered why the 22-year-old brunette who showed all in Hugh Hefners magazine couldnt display her assets onstage at the Stratosphere.

Curvy Claire wanted it. The choreographers wanted it. The audiences definitely wanted it. Yelp reviewers who recently received an accidental surprise flash, thanks to Claires mischievousness, raved about her mathematics: 36D-24-38. Finally, Stratosphere execs rolled back their hard-line decision negating nudity and gave their thumbs-up for a little more skin.
