It’s one of those stories that makes my blood boil:

Judge, Mark A. Ciavarella Jr., and a colleague, Michael T. Conahan, appeared in federal court in Scranton, Pa., to plead guilty to wire fraud and income tax fraud for taking more than $2.6 million in kickbacks to send teenagers to two privately run youth detention centers run by PA Child Care and a sister company, Western PA Child Care. - NYTimes

One of their victims:

At worst, Hillary Transue thought she might get a stern lecture when she appeared before a judge for building a spoof MySpace page mocking the assistant principal at her high school in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. She was a stellar student who had never been in trouble, and the page stated clearly at the bottom that it was just a joke.

Instead, the judge sentenced her to three months at a juvenile detention center on a charge of harassment. - NYTimes

It hurts to think of all the lives they destroyed. Disgusting.

Projectionist.com has one of the best archive page layouts I have seen in a long time.

I have one post on my tumblelog, maybe I’ll find a use for it down the road.
