Parents already had two young boys and hoped for a baby girl, ‘instead got something much better’! All children, whether boys or girls are a blessing, yet, there are some things that only parents of little girls can enjoy. “Sugar and spice and all that’s nice, that’s what little girls are made of.” Everyone has heard this rhyme, and a truer rhyme has never been sung. Little girls can be sweet as can be, but they each have some spice and have their flavours making them unique and special in their own ways. Angie and her husband, Geno, already had two young boys when they heard the good news. They were going to have another child. They hoped for a girl, so they couldn’t have been more thrilled when they learned what Angie was carrying in her stomach: not one or two, but three girls! They named the little ones Daniella, Camilla, and Anabella.  But as with any multiple birth, the was a danger of complications occurring.

Florida's Messiest Execution On July 8, 1999, the execution of Allen Lee Davis set off a shock wave that rippled around the world. During his time in the electric chair, Davis bled profusely from the nose and suffered burns to his head, leg, and groin area. As the switch was thrown, the “Tiny” Davis, who was executed for the May 11, 1982, murder of Nancy Weiler and her two daughters, reared back against the restraints, giving witnesses a chilling glimpse under a black hood designed to hide the faces of the condemned. Blood poured from his vivid purple nose, ran down the wide leather strap that covered his mouth and soaked the white shirt. After the power was turned off, Davis was still alive. Witnesses said his chest rose and fell about 10 times before he went still. After the execution, state prison officials and Governor Jeb Bush said the Old Sparky functioned properly. Three photos of the incident have been published on Florida’s High Court official website in an attempt to argu...

A mother, a child, a death pit. German and Ukrainian (collaborator) soldiers following the order by Heinrich Himmler. October 13, 1941, Ukraine "l still remember the young girl, slender and dark, who, passing near me, pointed at herself, saying, "twenty-three."I walked around the mound and faced a frightful common grave. Tightly packed corpses were heaped so close together that only the heads showed. Most were wounded in the head, and the blood flowed over their shoulders. Some still moved. Others raised their hands and turned their heads to show that they were still alive. The ditch was two-thirds full. I estimate that it held a thousand bodies. Read the Testimony of Hermann Friedrich Graebe to the Nuremberg Trials from his time in Dubno, Ukraine Here in Berlin and more and more across Germany, we have so-called "Stolpersteine." These are solid metail stones, which are embedded in the street, where a former German jew or family lived, who was killed during the...

I died the day they killed my daughter. I want to end this. I'm going to take out the people who hurt my daughter and they can do whatever they want to me."
