Hynes charged two former staff members of the Administration for Children's Services with criminally negligent homicide, in the death of little Marchella Pierce who died  tragically on Sept 2, 2010 at the hands of her Mother, Carlotta Brett- Pierce   (1)   .  The child's grandmother  Loretta Brett was  arraigned on charges of manslaughter the same day the ACS workers were charged, 23 March 2011.  The District Attorney alleges that the caseworker did not make required home visits in the weeks leading up to the death and that required paperwork was not produced in a timely fashion.

FULL SPECTRUM DOMINANCE

- by RAHUL MAHAJAN I wrote a (very small) summary of this book for the Wikipedia, primarily because there wasn't anything there. Just a real quickie, but I couldn't figure out how to add the cover picture at wiki-land.

Rest in Peace, Sky

Dead pop stars are not really my thing , but the Seeds were true garage heroes, and I love their stuff. SKY SAXON, their singer and bass player, apparently left this earth, in the physical form, on June 25 2009. He has been known more recently as Sky Sunlight Saxon . among other things. Hopefully SKY is achieving Inner Peace now. watch or watch here I'm not seeing much in the music blogs about the passing of SKY, but The Hound* put something up there right away. * - Of course, he always was cool.
