BELMONT, CALIF.
— In a July 29 story about Belmont’s moratorium on new massage therapist permits due to concerns about prostitution, The Associated Press reported erroneously that the California Massage Therapy Council said that schools it deemed illegitimate may allow sex workers to set up businesses by selling diplomas. Council CEO Ahmos Netanel said these schools also might have sold diplomas or committed other infractions unrelated to prostitution.

BRENTWOOD — There’s something about police work that’s always intrigued me.
Over the years, I’ve gone on ride-alongs and sting operations, written stories about coroners, prostitution, crime scene cleanups and cadaver dogs, so I didn’t think twice when I got the invitation.
Would I like to learn more about how law enforcement works behind the scenes?
That’s how I ended up in Brentwood Police Department’s first Citizens Academy, which the agency launched to improve relationships with residents by helping them understand what, how and why police do what they do.
Over the course of 10 weeks, a parade of speakers introduced about 15 of us to the many facets of law enforcement.

Massage Parlors Under the Scope in Belmont
Updated 2:00 PM PDT, Thu, Jul 29, 2010
Belmont officials have halted issuing any new massage therapist permits amid concerns that some businesses could be covers for sex workers.
The city council imposed the 45-day moratorium Tuesday after learning that 80 percent of Belmont’s massage therapists were certified by schools deemed illegitimate by a state watchdog group. The California Massage Therapy Council says those schools may allow sex workers to set up businesses by selling diplomas.
Now, 37 people who who said they went to those suspect schools could have their licenses revoked or mdified by the city, The San Mateo Daily Journal reported.
State-certified therapists still can set up shop in Belmont without the city permit, but others won’t be able to do so during the moratorium. Officials say existing therapists seeking to renew their permits also will face more scrutiny.

If you have only seen the film but not the play, expect more characters and more songs, but do not expect Liza Minnelli. Sally Bowles is a 19-year-old English girl who has stumbled into a life which is a bit more exciting and seedy than she would prefer, but she is putting a cheerful veneer over her desperation.
Briana Michaud, as Sally Bowles, is spectacular. She is the complete package: actor, singer, dancer, gorgeous. Vulnerable to slut in 60 seconds Emcee Roddy Kennedy is outstanding as well: ditto, the package. Engaging, sardonic, threatening.
CS veterans Kathryn Adkins and Doug Baird give touching, nuanced performances as Fraulein Schneider and Herr Schultz. Andrew Ceglio and Ariel Buck, director and one of the star performers, respectively, of “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change” are perfectly ingenuous and odious, respectively, in their roles of Clifford Bradshaw, Sally’s boyfriend, and Fraulein Kost, the anti-Semitic prostitute. Josiah Frampton excels in the difficult role of Ernst Ludwig, a very appealing and earnest young man who turns out to be a Nazi.

Larson deftly captured the ephemeral nature of life in his music and lyrics and this Broadway hit is made all the moving because of his own tragic back story. His own life echoes his characters fears because he himself died young and poor and unknown on the eve of “Rent’s” premiere. He never lived to bask in the glory of his creativity, just like the bohemian hipsters he created.
That piquancy animates this lively revival, which traces the journey of Mark (Spencer Williams) the filmmaker, his best pal Roger (Brian Palac), the musician desperately trying to write one last song before
he succumbs to AIDS, and the waifish stripper Mimi (Megan Woodruff), who also suffers from the disease but is determined to have no regrets about life. They all look up to Angel (the magnetic Adam Barry), the drag queen diva with a heart of gold, and few of them can resist the thrall of the ego monster performance artist Maureen (the formidable Jacqui Elliott).

Schmitz said he’s not sure what he will do with the property, which he owns, once he’s emptied the brick-colored cottage of the interior’s librarylike rooms, but it’s going to be a different daily routine for 16-year-old Roxy, his beloved cat, who accompanies him to the office each day, and his good friend, Chuck Norris, who travels from San Jose to Los Altos each day to chew the fat with Schmitz.
Schmitz said he plans to fill the up-and-coming quiet times by relaxing and spending time with family – he’s up to great-grandchildren in the scheme of generations.
And it was a special celebration …
for Los Altos Hills resident and author Jonnie Mae Lindsell, who held a book-signing promotion for her latest novel, “The Last Call Girl” (Fideli Publishing Inc., 2010), at Fiesta Vallarta Restaurant, 301 State St., Friday.

Amidst the now-standard tales of accounting fraud and forged signatures, there’s a wild brazenness about what, exactly, David H. Brooks is said to have paid for with the grifted funds and how, exactly, said expenditures were justified.
DHB, which specialized in making body armor used by the military in Iraq and Afghanistan, paid for more than $6 million in personal expenses on behalf of Mr. Brooks, covering items as expensive as luxury cars and as prosaic as party invitations, Ms. Schlegel testified.
Also included were university textbooks for his daughter, pornographic videos for his son, plastic surgery for his wife, a burial plot for his mother, prostitutes for his employees, and, for him, a $100,000 American-flag belt buckle encrusted with rubies, sapphires and diamonds. …
His lawyers also defended the hiring of prostitutes for employees and board members, arguing in court papers that it represented a legitimate business expense “if Mr. Brooks thought such services could motivate his employees and make them more productive.”
