San Diego Escorts: Tide, storms expose gaming ship
January 31, 2010 at 12:36 pm | In San Diego escorts | No Comments… I remember my dad telling me about a gambling ship off Coronado when he was a young boy,” said Jan Ronis, a second-generation native San Diegan.
Back in the dark and mostly dry early years of the Great Depression, the S.S. Monte Carlo was a controversial symbol that hope floats — as long as you played your cards right.
Launched in 1921 at Wilmington, N.C., the experimental, concrete-hulled ship was originally designed for military use as a tanker in World War I. In those days, it was called the McKittrick.
But the war ended before the vessel was finished, and it was converted to civilian use.
In 1936, the ship, renamed the S.S. Monte Carlo, turned up off San Diego. Its owners, alleged to have mob ties, anchored the vessel three miles off Point Loma, in international waters, and opened a floating casino and brothel. Ads touted “drinks, dice and dolls.”

SAN DIEGO — A young man recently released from San Diego County’s foster care system is trying to keep the program that saved him alive.
At 16, Suamhirs Rivera was working at a restaurant in his native Honduras to support his family when he said he was kidnapped.

I don’t know if I can say this
to be a prostitute,” said Rivera.
Rivera said he was raped for weeks until the house he was at in San Diego was raided.
“They found me, 16 or so, and they found other people. I think they were girls from other countries,” he said.

A plane advertising a strip club had a message for Tiger Woods
Updated 5:58 PM PST, Fri, Jan 29, 2010
In a clever marketing move at Tiger Woods’ expense, an airplane flew over the Farmers Insurance Open Thursday with a banner that read “WE MISS YOU TIGER! DEJA VU SHOWGIRLS.”
Joanne Arellano also saw the banner flying high near her work at the Salk Institute.
“It was hilarious! “Arellano said. “Everybody was laughing about it at the retirement party we had at work this afternoon. It was definitely the topic of conversation.”
The talk on tour also continues to revolve around Tiger Woods, from the shocking revelations of his infidelity to the mystery of his whereabouts to speculation on when he might return.
Now that Mickelson is back inside the ropes, some people hope he can help fill the void created by Woods’ indefinite break — but Mickelson would rather see Tiger back.

Today, I’ll let the above visual speak mostly for itself. As the action got under way for pro golfers in the first round of the PGA Farmers Insurance Open yesterday at Torrey Pines in San Diego, an area strip club displayed its tacky, sure, but nonetheless enterprising and humorous side by flying an ad banner behind an airplane that read “WE MISS YOU TIGER! DEJA VU SHOWGIRLS.” Tiger Woods, of course, is taking a break from the tour while dealing with the consequences of admitting earlier extramarital dalliances after his now-infamous Nov. 27 “car accident” at his Florida home. “We think it’s hilarious, kind of like a ‘Saturday Night Live’ skit or something on ‘Jay Leno,’ ” Déjà Vu manager Dakota Kelley — appropriate name — told The San Diego Union-Tribune about the publicity stu …

Friday January 29, 2010
He may not be playing at this week’s Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, but even in absentia Tiger Woods is the center of conversation at the PGA tournament. Or more specifically, the center of chuckles because yesterday an airplane towing one of those message banners was spotted above the golf course.
The banner’s message? “WE MISS YOU TIGER! DÉJÀ VU SHOWGIRLS.” Now, for those of you in the dark about such things, Deja Vu Showgirls is a local strip club. And given the scandal of Tiger’s now well-known and numerous sexual escapades (he is reportedly checked into a sex addiction clinic), it is the latest – and possibly funniest – joke at the once infallible one’s expense.

SAN DIEGO – Call it a sign of the times.

The riff on the Tiger Woods sex scandal drew a lot of quiet chuckles among the gallery, and according to the manager of the Déjà Vu Showgirls strip club in the Midway District, generated plenty of phone calls.
“We think it’s hilarious, kind of like a ‘Saturday Night Live’ skit or something on Jay Leno,” said manager Dakota Kelley, who instructed his dancers to also answer the phone by saying, “We miss you Tiger.”
San Diego Escorts: HOMELESS IN EAST COUNTY: ONE WOMAN’S STORY
January 28, 2010 at 7:00 pm | In San Diego escorts | No CommentsDawn Marie says she knows ten homeless people within a three-block radius in El Cajon. “I know one guy, 50 years old, he’s perfectly happy living like this. Another couple, they’re happy too, but I am unhappy living like this.”
Despite the hardships she has endured, she maintains goals for the future. “I want to get a stable roof over my head, work part-time and go to school part-time. I’ve done in-home care, which I really liked. I’ve done customer service; I know how to do deli platters.”
One social services agency suggested she do in-home care in exchange for discounted lodging. “But they still wanted $200 a month, and I don’t have it,” says Dawn Marie, who worries she will soon run out of makeup and have difficulty being presentable for job interviews.
Asked what kind of work she would accept, she replied, “Anything legal. I’ve cleaned apartments. I’m not proud. I will scrub a toilet to earn money, but I’m not going to prostitute myself.”
San Diego Escorts: Sheriff’s Dept. To Receive Border Camera Grant, 10News.com
January 27, 2010 at 2:00 am | In San Diego escorts | No CommentsSAN DIEGO — The San Diego County Board of Supervisors unanimously voted Tuesday to spend $280,000 of federal grant money on a border security camera for the Sheriff’s Department.
The money came to the county as part of a grant under Operation Stonegarden, a federal border security initiative, and will go to FLIR Inc. for a camera and microwave transmission system.
Similar cameras are already in service in the border area.
The one public speaker in opposition to the purchase, Pedro Rios of the American Friends Service Committee, said his organization feared the cameras would lead to racial profiling against border crossers and intrude on privacy. The AFSC opposes enforcement of immigration laws.
Sheriff William Gore said the cameras were necessary to prevent crimes such as trafficking of underage girls and women for prostitution.

San Diego Escorts: Sheriff wants expansion of cameras near border
January 26, 2010 at 9:36 am | In San Diego escorts | No CommentsGore wants to spend $263,000 from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on a pair of cameras to add to the existing system, which is operated by a government coalition, Maritime Unified Command. The money is part of more than $19 million that San Diego County received as a partner in Operation Stonegarden, a multijurisdictional effort to streamline police activities within the border region.
The county Board of Supervisors is set to consider Gore’s request at its meeting this morning. Sheriff’s Department leaders say the cameras will help them fight a growing tide of drug and human trafficking along the county’s shoreline.
Sheriff’s Lt. David Myers said the department is not going after migrant workers trying to get into the United States to hunt for jobs.
Rather, he said, the cameras will allow deputies to take advantage of new technology to fight a highly adaptable criminal element determined to smuggle drugs and prostitutes into San Diego County.
