Good day, friends and readers, and welcome to the Friday edition of the Bronx News Roundup. Here are the Bronx stories we’re following today on the Breaking Bronx blog. Weather: Beautiful. Some clouds, high of 72, nice little breeze, not too humid.

We’ll start with some cute new additions to the Bronx Zoo, which welcomed two new baby lemurs this week, a Coqueral’s sifaka (above) and a collared lemur (below). Huff Post has the story.

David Griffiths, 66, executive director of a Bronx nonprofit with links to state Assemblyman Peter Rivera, has been convicted of federal crimes, including fraud and obstruction of justice, according to the Daily News.

Whalesca Castillo of the Bronx may serve two-years for illegally operating a cosmetic clinic out of her home. According to the Daily News story, Castillo charged $1,500 to inject silicone into the derrieres of her clients.

According to myfox.com, Bronx principle, Jeanene Worrell-Breeden, was recommended to be dismissed by the DOE from her job after she was found to have been collecting overtime pay when she was actually in “boot camp” classes.

A day care teacher from the Bronx was accused of possessing and distributing child pornography, according to NBC news. Joshua Conde was arrested by Homeland Security agents after an investigator traced an IP address at his home to a child pornography file sharing network.

Justin Fornal, aka Baron Ambrosia, the self-styled star of BronxNet’s Emmy winning cult hit, “Bronx Flavor,” is taking his show on the road in a new version of his show on the Cooking Channel. Fornal has nothing but great things to say about his Bronx adventures. “You kind of have the whole world in one borough,” he told the Wall Street Journal. “I could stay here forever and never be finished.” The DN also has the story on “The Culinary Adventures of Baron Ambrosia.”

The Manhattan College baseball team is back in the NCAA Tournament for the second year in a row after an improbable run to win the MAAC title. During the frenetic final weekend of the tournament, the Daily News reports, pitcher Taylor Sewitt threw 22 shutout innings and an incredible 296 pitches.

South Bronx Educational Campus moved onto the semifinals of the PSAL class B baseball playoffs, according to the DN.

Meanwhile, silive.com reports, Bronx Science lost in the semifinals of PSAL golf tournament.

And finally, some love for the Boogie Down from John Patrick Shanley, the Bronx native who wrote “Doubt.” Shanley was on WNYC’s Brian Lehrer Show earlier to talk about his new play, “Shorfront Church,” about how the mortgage crisis pits a Bronx Borough President (based on Adolfo Carrion) against a local pastor. Here’s a quote from Shanley, courtesy of the WNYC blog: “I feel like the Bronx is really the most legitimate part of New York at this time,” Shanely said. “But it is the only part of New York that is actually part of Mainland, United States. I feel like the people are a little more grounded, a little more out of the rat race and more involved in community than the rest of the city.”

Go Bronx! Enjoy the weekend. We’ll be back next week. Send links and news tips to us at norwoodnews@norwoodnews.org.
