A Question of Justice - Juvenile Justice Gone Awry
Our daughter forwarded us an editorial in The New York Times on juvenile justice in the United States "12 and in Prison" (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/28/opinion/28tue1.html?scp=1&sq=12%20and%20in%20prison&st=cse) that notes that trying juveniles as adults is "terrible public policy." Children sentenced as adults are more likely to become repeat violent offenders and The New York Times calls for Congress to cause the States "to simply end these inhumane practices to be eligible for federal juvenile justice funds." The editorial could more simply advocate putting "justice" back into the nation's juvenile justice system.
This summer our daughter, a law student at New York University, interned in New Orleans helping represent children caught in the city's juvenile justice system. Some of the stories she tells are horrendous. Keep Reading

10 Quick Questions For 50
Curtis James Jackson, III, aka 50 Cent was born on July 6, 1975 in South Jamaica, Queens, where he was raised by his single-mom until she was murdered when he was only 8. He was taken in by his grandparents, but began hanging out with the wrong kids and began selling crack by the age of 12. While still a teenager, he was arrested and convicted for drug dealing, and turned his life around while serving out a six-month sentence.
After being paroled, he parlayed his street cred into an enviable career in gangsta' rap with the help of the late Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC, and the rest, as they say, is musical history. Here, he talks about his latest film, Streets of Blood, a crime thriller set in New Orleans and co-starring Val Kilmer. Keep Reading

METAIRIE, La. – Three people are in the hospital after an accident involving intoxicated drivers, according to Troop B spokesman Joseph Piglia.
The accident happened early Saturday around 5:15 a.m. on Airline Highway.
Santos Garcia, 28, was stopped at a red light at the corner of Airline and Manson Avenue when Craig Codina, 25, rammed into the back of Garcia’s car with his pick-up truck while “traveling at a high rate of speed,” Piglia said.
Both Garcia and a passenger in the car, Sandra Stevens, suffered severe injuries and are in critical condition in University Hospital. Codina was also injured in the accident and was transported to University Hospital, where he is in serious condition.
Piglia said an investigation revealed both drivers were impaired at the time of the accident, with both getting DWIs. Codina was also charged with two counts of vehicular negligent injuring and reckless operation of a motor vehicle, Piglia said.

Interesting History of the Bush Family - From Truth Rocker
I came across this essay on the Truth Rocker blog. I found it very interesting and thought some of the readers may as well:
For any civilized endeavor to maintain its civility, there must be enforceable laws and/or rules; without which, there is anarchy. So, before we find ourselves struggling to regain our lost freedoms, like those tragic heros in Burma/Myanmar, perhaps we should take a strategic review of how we arrived at this alarming state, honestly apprise our current status, and as we approach another major election, cast about for viable options for now as well as the foreseeable future.
Any objective observer with the barest awareness of contemporary history should be able to readily trace the rise of this powerful movement that has taken control of the reins of power in the United States. The most blatant initial historical record is when Grandpa Prescott Bush and some of his cronies tried to entice General Smedley Butler to muster enough World War I veterans to take over the Presidency of The United States in 1933. Then again, in 1942 (a year after the U.S. joined World War II), Prescott Bush and this same cabal -- in their drive toward fascism -- were finally forced by the "Trading With the Enemy Act" to terminate their extensive business dealings with Hitler.

With home values across the New Orleans area falling, one class of properties arguably has the worst prospects of all: flooded, gutted and unrepaired properties sitting on the market.
Damaged homes are losing value faster than repaired homes in many areas, with little prospect of turning around. And across Orleans Parish in particular, damaged homes are languishing on the market.
