San Jose Strip Clubs: A ‘desperate’ era comes to an end

At times, the story lines were so far-fetched we suspected Cherry and his crew were doing bong hits in the writer’s room. We’d be here for hours if we tried to log all the insane plots. Instead, we’ll rank our top five:
1. New neighbor Betty Applewhite (Alfre Woodard) keeps her mentally challenged son (and murder suspect) chained up in the basement. It’s creepy and offensive and a waste of Woodard’s talent.
2. Bree fakes being pregnant to cover up the fact that her daughter, Danielle, has been knocked up and banished to a convent. The plan worked … for a while.
3. After vying for (and losing) the love of Mike Delfino (James Denton), Katherine Mayfair (Dana Delany) goes crazy, and then goes lesbian when seduced by a former stripper.

San Jose Adult Entertainment: Problems with San Jose homeless community rise as raids cease

A combination of legal constraints from a recent court ruling and budget cuts at the police department have for the past few months put a hold on all encampment raids. Officials haven’t even been able to clear trash out of local waterways near the encampments.
“We’re already overwhelmed by the scale of the problem,” Councilman Sam Liccardo said. His downtown district includes many of the city’s estimated 11,000 homeless people, a figure that has increased some 20 percent since the economic downturn began.
Now Vice Mayor Madison Nguyen, who is fed up with the encampments near her Communications Hill home, is proposing to find a way to restore the funding cut from the police department’s budget earlier this year to reinstate patrols near camps in hopes of stopping drug use, burglaries, prostitution and even violent crimes.

San Jose Escorts: Neighbors, community raise safety concerns in the wake of Monday’s brutal homicide

… It’s really shaken me, and we do walk around the neighborhood a lot,” said Coonerty. “It’s a nice group of people who live around here, and that’s what makes it particularly scary.”
The former mayor said the incident has made him and his wife talk about having her walk less by herself, a sentiment shared by neighbors.
“This is so random and crazy,” he said. “That is what is unnerving about it, and it makes me feel nervous, angry and threatened.”
It’s the random nature of the crime that makes JD Sotelo, a founder of the Lower Ocean Neighbors group, not convinced that the problem is the neighborhood itself. He doesn’t believe the crime has anything to do with the neighborhood, which has long battled drug dealing, prostitution and other crime. “The random insanity” of the act signals to Sotelo that it could have occurred anywhere to anyone.

San Jose Massage Parlors: Alameda officials to consider ordinance on tattoo, massage businesses

Both districts are “community commercial zones,” where several years ago regulations were modified to allow tattoo shops on a ground floor on Webster Street with a use permit and on an upper floor as a “by right” use.
About the same time, however, the Park Street Business Association moved to prohibit the shops outright on a ground floor, according to the city.
A proposal from a tattoo business to open on a ground floor on Webster Street last year sparked widespread opposition from nearby residents and merchants, prompting the West Alameda Business Association to now ask for regulations identical to those regarding Park Street.
Along with governing the location of tattoo shops, the ordinance going before the council Tuesday would allow massage businesses on ground floors on Park and Webster streets with a use permit.
City officials also are asking the council to remove “massage parlor” from the city’s municipal code as an “adult entertainment activity.”
