San Mateo County sheriff running for re-election despite brothel scandal
…
Munks, who authorities said was found inside the brothel, issued a statement a few days later saying he believed he was going to a legitimate business for a massage and that neither he nor Bolanos broke the law.
…
County supervisors declined to question Munks about the brothel incident, saying they have no business interrogating another elected official acting on his own time. But after congresswomen Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, and Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto, criticized their lack of response in April 2008, supervisors created the framework for an ethics commission that could be summoned to investigate wrongdoing by elected officials.
Despite the bad publicity that followed Munks’ visit to the illegal brothel, running against an incumbent sheriff is still considered a daunting task in a county of more than 700,000 people.

California’s attorney general and prospective Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Jerry Brown, is trapped in a political cage from which there will be no easy escape. When it comes to secretly recorded conversations, and a national scandal involving the housing advocacy group ACORN, Brown is going to find himself in trouble no matter what he does.
Brown’s office is investigating two conservative filmmakers, James O’Keefe III and Hannah Giles, who last summer posed as a pimp and a prostitute and secretly videotaped employees at ACORN offices giving tax advice that was highly unethical if not illegal. Some of those offices were in California, which forbids secret electronic recordings of “confidential communication.” Liberal activists are expecting Brown to throw the book at the filmmakers — and conservatives are simultaneously pillorying him for a separate incident in which he gave his own spokesman a pass after he appeared to be breaking the same law. Although the controversy might well haunt Brown during his campaign for governor, the two cases are actually very different from a legal standpoint.

Stanford thumped USC, 55-21, on Saturday in Los Angeles — even going for a two-point conversion when the team led 48-21 late — but even the band got in a quick shot against the collected masses of Trojans fans.
In case you didn’t hear it, the announcer said this of USC alum/Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis:
That said, USC can’t take all the credit for the successes of its students. After all, it takes a special kind of man to be wanted for sexual harassment, drug trafficking, tax evasion, prostitution, child abuse and disruptive flatulence, but that’s just the kind of captain of industry that Joe Francis is.
Look, I think it’s as funny as the next guy to see a big program be humbled, but Stanford better hope and pray they’ve got a few strong years coming up for their program. There are a lot of young players at USC, and if Jim Harbaugh bolts for another job, there will be some ugly games between the Cardinal and Trojans in the next few years.

The boutique was organized by church officials and Trade As One, a global company run by a local couple to sell products made by the world’s “poorest of the poor,” such as people with AIDS in Africa and prostitutes in Thailand.
Cath George, a Santa Cruz resident who started Trade As One with her husband Nathan three years ago, hoped the boutique would help holiday shoppers rethink how and where they buy their gifts.
“I’ve traveled quite a bit, and I can see the difference this makes in their lives,” George said in the thick accent of her native United Kingdom. “We’re giving a handup to people rather than a handout.”
…
The boutique was stocked with soccer balls and footballs from Pakistan, olive oil made by Palestinians, chocolate from Ghana, purses crafted in Guatemala, glittery tree ornaments from India and jewelry designed by prostitutes in Bangkok.

Eric Taylor.

Every year 1.2 million children and teenagers worldwide are abducted or coerced into prostitution, pornography or forced labor. This year the average victim is 13 years old.
Roughly100 people are expected to walk or run just over three miles Saturday. The event is Run for Freedom’s fifth 5K since September.
“[Sex trafficking is] nothing new,” said Mary Ann Manzo, who co-founded Run for Freedom with her husband, Pat. “It’s been around a long time, but in the day and age we live in, it is one of the fastest growing criminal activities happening in our world.”
…
The women, rescued by Florida law-enforcement during brothel raids, will be given spiritual rehabilitation through counseling and chapel services, and will be taught a trade. Upon leaving the one-year program, the women will be assisted with job placement.

… You are described by others who testified as a prophet of God, a person of trust, a person of supreme authority in the church,” Barnes said, staring the pale preacher. “It’s hard to imagine the scenario and the damage that occurred to these five young girls.”
Alamo, who had muttered and cursed through his two-week trial, stood silently during the sentencing, dressed in a yellow prison uniform and a blue windbreaker. Before Barnes’ ruling, Alamo told the judge: “I lean on the lord Jesus Christ.”
“I’m glad I’m me and not the deceived people in the world,” the evangelist said.
Alamo’s defense team, which had asked for leniency due to the preacher’s age and poor health, promised to appeal Barnes’ ruling.
FBI agents and Arkansas State Police troopers raided Alamo’s compound in nearby Fouke in September 2008. The FBI arrested Alamo five days later in Flagstaff, Ariz., charging him with violating the Mann Act, a century-old morality law originally aimed at stopping women from being sold into prostitution.

For the past two weeks, Russotti has been tinkering with new ideas from his base at the Lab and staging events like Wiffle Hurling, a game he invented while attending art school at Rutgers University. In it, players try to sink a soccer ball into a goal using wiffle bats. He’s also been playing Mercury, a hybrid sport mixing elements of football, soccer and basketball. Russotti said his run in San Francisco has been going well… almost too well.
“This place is just great for this sort of thing,” he said. “But last weekend in Dolores Park, I threw a Mega Soccer tournament — it’s sorta like soccer, but played with multiple balls — and there were so many other people out there playing weird games that we just kinda faded into the mix.”
Erin Dougherty, aka Venom Miss, agreed. Dougherty is a founding member of SFC Double Dutch, a three-girl jump rope crew that performs themed stage shows — they dress as zombies, grandmas, strippers, etc. — at festivals, art spaces and dive bars throughout the city.
