Mother and Kids Live With 90-Year-Old Corpse on Toilet
A mother and her two children lived with the bloating corpse of a 90-year-old woman decaying on the toilet of their only bathroom for two months. It gets better. The mother left the corpse their because a religious “superior” told her it would come back to life...
Remember that story about the couple who let their diabetic daughter die because they prayed instead of seeking medical attention? Well, that was a pretty egregious case of neglect but I was willing to admit, the parents were at least doing what, in their very confused minds, was right. In this case, however, this is just straight up hyper-retarded.
The kids, 15 and 12 years of age, are now in foster care. When questioned by the police, the boy said he had plotted to run away from his mothers home. Smart kid, that one.
Of course, maybe the mom was just up for some madcap hyjinks, Weekend At Bernie's Style.

Cate Blanchett and her new baby Ignatius have been busy making the rounds.
Looks like Iggy is Bjorn to be wild in his black Synergy ($134, Amazon).
Stay cool, Ignatius.

If Your Daughter Must Wear a Bow
I've never been one for bows in girls hair, but if you've gotta have a bow to solidify the sex of your little one, then my vote is for this number, which features loveable pink and white skull and crossbones on a chocolate brown background. Now grandma can't complain you don't dress her like a girl!
The pink and brown skulls design ($5.99) is from 2 Lil Angels Boutique, which also carries a bevy of more traditional (but not too traditional) bows, headbands and pacifier clips.

Clio goes commando
A quick anecdote: Yesterday was rainy and miserable, and after a rather cranky morning (we were determined to resist Clio's pleas for her pacifier, and though it meant listening to her scream for about 20 minutes, we won. We won!) I decided to take ...read more
