Why'd he lie? Law student's false racial accusation riles
Why did he do it?
That's a question only one person can answer, and that person– Johnathan Perkins– isn't talking. But it hasn't stopped people from wondering what motivated the close-to-graduating UVA third year law student to make up a story about police harassment and racial profiling.
"I was stunned," says M. Rick Turner, president of the local NAACP, "because why would this person put his career on the line?"
The account Perkins penned detailing the alleged event was published along with a sympathetic news story in the the student-run UVA Law Weekly April 22. At Perkins' request, UVA police launched a full-scale investigation, and high-ranking UVA professors decried the alleged incident in which Perkins claimed he'd been harassed by two officers, thrown up against their cruiser, and searched– simply because he was a black man walking home on city streets.
"Whenever I attempted to turn to answer their questions, they forcibly turned me back around to face the car," wrote Perkins of what he called "a real-life anecdote illustrating the myth of equal protection under the law."
It wasn't true, as Perkins eventually admitted on May 5 after the investigation turned up numerous inconsistencies in his story, according to a UVA release.
But while filing a false report can result in criminal charges against the accuser, that won't be the case this time. Instead, Charlottesville Commonwealth's Attorney Dave Chapman and UVA Police Chief Michael Gibson agree no punishment is necessary. That refusal has some making accusations about political correctness run amok.
"Gibson's reasoning is upside down," writes M. Catherine Evans in an op-ed posted on the American Thinker blog. "Others might think twice about pulling the same con if the law student was held accountable for his actions."
Chief Gibson did not immediately return a reporter's phone call, but Chapman, defending the seemingly gentle approach, says two elements were at play as he and police considered their response. The first, he says, is that Perkins never accused a specific individual.
"We would routinely and invariably go ahead with charges," says Chapman, if the false accusation were made "for the purpose of hurting another person, especially when it's done for the purpose of having someone taken into custody and locked up."
A second element, Chapman says, is that prosecuting Perkins might have not only deterred others from reporting real racial profiling incidents, but also deterred other false accusers from owning up to their lies.
"You do want to encourage people who make a hard decision to say, 'I gotta straighten this out,'" says Chapman, who says the fact that Perkins confessed before the investigation went even further was important.
Indeed, there's a local precedent in which a white man, an Albemarle Sheriff's Deputy, accused an unknown African American man of shooting him in 2003. No charges were filed even after authorities determined that the Deputy, Stephen R. Shiflett, may have shot himself.
If Perkins' allegations against the UVA cops are false, the young man's frustration may be authentic.
In his original letter, Perkins– whose late father, Spencer Perkins, wrote More Than Equals about racial healing, and whose civil rights activist grandfather, John M. Perkins, authored two noted books, Let Justice Roll Down and With Justice for All – describes some of his white classmates as "blithely unaware of the lives that many black people lead" and calls his profiling experience "all too familiar to black Americans."
That's why the NAACP's Turner says that he too contacted Perkins in the days after the accusations, asking the law student to have lunch. Turner was particularly concerned that Perkins' letter suggested he felt he "had no recourse."
"When a person presents a story like that, and then says he has no recourse, I beg to differ," says Turner. "You do have recourse. You get in touch with University police, the University president, and you tell your story."
That's what one mixed-race student did when back in 2003 she was allegedly assaulted by a white man who knocked her down and made threatening racist remarks. While some blogs wondered if she might have concocted the story to win the student government presidency, the election-eve incident created such a firestorm that her election opponent dropped out of the race, then President John Casteen addressed the student body, and the FBI investigated.
In 2005, a month before her graduation, that student– Daisy Lundy (who now goes by her married name, Lovelace)– was given the Distinguished Student Award by the Office of African American Affairs, where she now works as assistant to the Dean. She did not return the Hook's call for comment.
Turner, who was the Dean of African American Affairs at the time of that incident, says Perkins didn't behave like someone who wanted to find justice. Citing "personal problems," Perkins declined Turner's lunch invitation, and within days, Turner says, he'd recanted his tale.
"It's not only damaging to him, to the police department, and the university," says Turner. "It's damaging to students who want to come to the university" and who might change their minds based on the negative publicity.
Before the hoax was revealed, Perkins granted interviews with at least three media outlets including the Cavalier Daily, the Newsplex, and the Daily Progress; but he rebuffed at least one reporter eager to portray his account.
"My main goal was to increase awareness of this type of thing, and I think I've done that," he wrote Hook reporter Lisa Provence in a motive-revealing April 28 email which cited the onslaught of final exams as an interview impediment.
Since the revelation of fakery, Perkins has resisted further inquiries, but he confirms the falsehood in the UVA release: "The events in the article did not occur."
In a post on the Above the Law legal blog, attorney David Lat suggests some of Perkins classmates are feeling betrayed and angry.
"It hurts because the story had seriously affected me, and now every time I hear a story of racially based police misconduct this is going to be the memory that will pop into my head," writes one student who Lat quotes.
One question bouncing around Lat's blog is whether Perkins should face a sanction from UVA's vaunted Honor Code, which proscribes lying along with stealing and cheating– and calls for expulsion for even a single violation.
"Should a UVa law student be immune from violating the honor code simply because he's so close to graduation?" asks one of Lat's readers. "Of course not; this is a public and egregious violation of the honor code that brings shame on the entire UVA community and should be dealt with swiftly and justly, before Perkins is allowed to graduate, if he should be allowed to graduate at all."
According to well-established Honor Code protocol, any charges would remain confidential before, during, and after an Honor trial. That's the message from Paul G. Mahoney, dean of UVA's School of Law, who reveals what Perkins can expect on graduation day if he has been charged with a Honor offense.
"The subject is typically permitted to participate in the ceremony," Mahoney writes in a statement, "but does not actually receive a degree pending the outcome of the proceeding."
The NAACP's Turner says he thinks the University should try a non-punitive approach.
"I think you ask him to sit down with a psychiatrist to see what's going on in his head," says Turner. "Where was he going with this? People with normal thought patterns don't do this."Read more on: Johnathan Perkinsracial profilingUVA Law

Law student lying? No irony here folks, lets move along.
Perkins should not receive his degree, pure and simple. What he did was repulsive and reprehensible.
What the hell is wrong with this school/community/ local press/ local justice system?
I don't intend to defend plagarism, domestic violence, inciting racial tensions, or class divisions; however, let's consider these bizarre situations at UVa all within the recent past:
1. Professor comes up with software program to scan essays for "plagarism". Several students are 'caught' using similar phrases, paras, etc without 'correct' acknowledgement of primary source - according to professor. Weren't some students were expelled? but others allowed to graduate because they were so close to leaving? No public statement/treatment from UVa heirarchy about the situation. After all, it was bad press and concerns the Honor Code.
2. . Perkins intentionally publishes lies about threats, violence & racial issues with no apparent consequences. His actions are obvious and objective Honor Code violations, and a character issue for the VA Bar application - but it looks like he will graduate with a LAW degree from UVa. If he filed a false police report - about anything - (without naming the violator by name, perhaps one he couldn't even identify) he'd still be guilty of a crime. Again, bad press and the Honor Code are involved.
3. UVa has students who mutually and openly participate in an abusive relationship for years, a loud vulgar girl who is so bawdy drunk that passing out (again) is not considered out of the ordinary, the toxins in her system are so incriminating the prosecution battles the release of the med report, -- but what is never said out loud - she is a carbon copy of so many UVa spoiled little rich girls, that she must be referred to as "special" by everyone. She is sainted by the school and then the national press for weeks, months, and now in the press again a year later.
The boy is just as bawdy and aggressive and rich but assumed guilty in public speech by the Pres of College to the student body immediately after the discovery of the body and before any arrests are made. Trial for "rich boy" is set for Feb. but he has repeatedly been publicly convicted by college agents and therefore, in local opinion. It wouldn't be good press to defend this student as vigorously as the "victim" or simply make no comment - ever.
4. Most college students drink. UVA students DRINK HEAVILY 3-4-5 nights a week. DRINK to get bloody bawdy barfing unconscious drunk - not just buzzed. Parties are available 24-7 in the dorms, apts, Frats, everywhere. Open containers, six packs, cases are openly carried into residences all the time and NO ONE checks, especially campus security. It's laughable. Yet - UVA wants to act oblivious when students actually die from drinking on campus. (Joe Arwood)
4. Other students who have died in the past 12 mos. while enrolled here - (like Matt King, Thomas W. Gilliam, John Jones) barely register a blip on UVa conscientiousness. No faculty, staff or student outpouring of public sympathy or sadness for these students. The local press on two occasions writes one small column as an interest story. Once there was a one sentence quote obtained from the faculty.
Is it me -- or does the UVA world rotate only in the Dodgson universe?
Where is common sense. Where is equal treatment. Where is balance.
He committed what appears to be, on it's face, a gross Honor violation. He should be dismissed.
Just as there are racist in white society, there are also racist in the African- American community. I have always wondered why this politically correct nomen, has African before American??? Would an American in Africa be a American-African??? Until everyone accepts American first, meaning all races, we will never be without racism!!!
Not sure where you are getting your information, but it is clearly not from this planet. Unless you knew YL personally and were there the night she died, deciding to call her a bawdy, vulgar girl (who, in fact, according to police reports had a VERY low BAC at the time of her death, and no, um, "toxins") - you might consider having a) a heart b) some ethics a) a clue and c) less misplaced venom.
Yikes. Get turned down from UVA recently?
PS - Stay on topic and out of the dorms where you apparently spend some time.
Plain and simple- he needs to be tried for an honor violation. Lying, cheating, and stealing are against the honor code. Every UVA student is aware of this.
Waiting for the new UVa president to chime in..............gut check!
Alice in UVaLand is Sean Cannan. Proceed to ignore.
It's quite possible Perkins is being brought up on Honor charges (which must be initiated by a current community member, student or faculty). An Honor trial is not a quick affair; the process is long. Anyone clamoring for a quick "boot 'im out" response is all clamor, no understanding. It's possible he'll graduate, receive his degree, then have his Honor trial. It happens that way sometimes; degrees can be revoked on the basis of an Honor conviction.
Silence from the new president of U.Va. is rather telling.
Just in case you don't know, your link regarding the Daisy Lundy story is to vdare.com, an unapologetic white supremacy website.
@ Alice in UVA Land
One could go on and on all day, every day, picking apart everything that is wrong about UVA and its culture and the people who go there, but really, who has that kind of time and energy? I just try to ignore the place. I once temped for UVA (but not through UVA's temp service, it was through an outside agency) and in my three assignments I was located both on and off the campus, and both made my skin crawl. The idea of UVA medical center makes my skin crawl too. I hope to god I never have to go there. So yeah, I just ignore the neverending drama and craziness associated with the place and focus on my own life. One can actually live in Charlottesville and completely ignore UVA. It *is*possible you know. If you don't go there, and you don't work there, and if you're like me and could give a ratt's butt about any sports, including UVA sports, then seriously, who cares about the place. Put it on "ignore" and move on.
btw, 5 comes after 4.
He will make a perfect lawyer... in fact the reason the UVA prez hasn't commented is she is probably trying to recruit him to help cover up all the crimes that go on....
gg22901, adjectives go befo da word, mane
Its not up to the admin to comment. Some fellow student will report it as an honor violation and he will proably be convicted by a jury of students (based on the story to date) and will not receive his degree.
The problem is he can raise questions on past complaints and motives that are long over that have nothing to do with him. Such as a couple a years ago, X (female, A.A. don't remember name) was running for President of UVA student body, then one week before the election, she said she was stopped in the night with racial "N" word etc thrown at her (with no witnesses) and Y (male, white, the other person don't know name) dropped out of the race for President so she was elected the following week with no opposition. At the time I thought how convenient for her it happened right before the election, with no witnesses.
This story pretty much proves that the cop shoppes and commonwealth attorneys can always justify placing charges.... or not placing charges. Well, at least in their own minds of course. The kid should have been charged with filing a false report with the UVA cop shoppe, it's that simple.
disclaimer: The Albemarle Sheriff's deputy mention above...... is not me!
We do however share similar names, and we both worked for Sheriff's Departments.
His doing this was wrong and should not be condoned. However, what is the big deal? Caucasion women and men have done this numerous times in the past reporting things like, "three black men" assaulted me and took my children or robbed me, or raped me...only after thorough investigation that they admit that they made it up. No one as far as I can recollect was made an example of for doing this and subjecting African-Americans to this types of slander and misrepresentation. So, be fair in your evaluation of this incident, no it wasn't a good thing to do, however, caucasions do it probably more often and it has been overlooked or swepted under the rug. There could be many reasons why he did this which doesn't make it right, however, it makes him a "human being" with problems that he probably needs help with like everyone else regardless of ethnicity.
CRev, the big deal, for me at least, is that Perkins made it more difficult for the next African American who IS racially profiled and/or discriminated against by the police. "Yeah, sure, just like that LAST guy who claimed the police roughed him up...they're always lying." Perkins just gave the ignorant and prejudice MORE ammunition. That's my biggest beef. For someone who claims to care about his community, I would say this effort totally backfired. And yeah, I'd guess he needs psychological help.
I cannot believe Uva is not pressing any charges at the very least. Are they really going to give this kid a degree? I have always wondered why our justice system is so screwed up? If they kick him out is he gonna claim it was a racial decision?
ok, honor system noobs, here's the deal. if someone suspects that this guy lied about something, the thing to do is to report him to the honor committee. if they investigate and deem that he lied, he should be expelled. HOWEVER, if he submits a conscientious retraction to the honor committee BEFORE an honor code violation is reported, then he may be able to avoid getting the boot.
since he's come clean (in the media, at least), it stands to reason that he could file a conscientious retraction if he hasn't already. the caveat to the c.r. is that the admission has to be made BEFORE the accused suspects that he's been found out for lying. if someone accuses him, then he owns up to it, no dice.
without knowing the chain of events, i can't say whether or not a case could still be filed against him, but if you are a uva student or faculty member and you think this should be investigated, contact the honor committee immediately.
Not surprised at all that somebody at UVA felt entitled to lie, cheat, defame, and ruin careers to promote a political agenda quite popular with UVA faculty. I have my own issues with UVA's private, armed militia – but they are not racists. This guy should be expelled. But he won't even be taken before the Honor Committee. Just like Margaret Lipman was not. It doesn't matter how heinous the lies or misinformation are. As long as you are trying to promote the lunatic political agenda that UVA faculty is brainwashing these kids into embracing – then doing or saying anything is fair game.
losing a UVa law degree over this would be too harsh a punishment.
A false report of a crime which starts an investigation is just that, a false report despite not "naming" a suspect. Police misconduct occurs and is certainly investigated thoroughly in this area, especially in C'Ville where Chief Longo was the Baltimore PD Internal Affairs head and is considered an expert in the field. But this turns the justice system on it's head. If a local police officer lied like that they would be history, and rightly so. Perkins needs to be charged and Gibson needs to grow a set.
This dude should not even receive his useless TTT degree. Every dime of tax payer funded tuition that this goon rode in on should be paid back to the tax payers, either out of his own dime, or out of the pockets of the white-guilt peddling institution of so-called "higher learning".
These shiftless, layabout, entitled "minorities" are indocrinated by hardcore America hating Marxist Jews, their "professors", that whitey is racis' and must pay for their useless layabout lives. No. Time for you to pay whitey. Defund the schools, every dime of that money belongs in the hands of white men.
So all of those guys in blue blazers, khakis, and bow ties that teach at UVA are marxist jews. I always wondered why they dress like that. I guess it's a cultural thing with them. So much useful information here.
"losing a UVa law degree over this would be too harsh a punishment."
...and there's the problem with the single-sanction. This is an old debate. Regardless of what you think is subjectively the "right" punishment, the single sanction operates to push that judgment call out of the hands of the honor system and into the hands of the witnesses or victims who have to decide whether they feel the individual infraction they've witnessed merits the one available (and draconian) sanction.
I would like to suggest to people who like to engage in UVa-bashing (particularly of the Presidents) that the litany of ills you offer is neither new nor limited in any way to UVa - these things are pretty much endemic to society.
Like the first commenter observed, "a lying lawyer"...I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you! (for the oblivious, think Claude Raines in Casablanca). Kids aren't dumb and they grow up in this country seeing the obvious disconnect between the way things really work and the BS Horatio Alger story we sell them. The lessons are immediately obvious: winning by any means is how you win, it's most definitely not about honor in defeat or playing a good, sportsman like game.
America has become all about making a fast buck (maybe that's what it was always about) - finding the quick, easy way; taking a shortcut. Look at what dominates research at UVa nowdays: Big Pharma drug trials.
Interesting, this story has attracted 27 previous responses. The story on UVA' s sexual harassment policy has so far attracted zero.
You are not worthy of a response. Get a clue.
For whomever said this is not worthy of losing his law degree, I hope you were joking. This is outrageous slander on the police, the school, and the community.
The Honor Code is dead at UVA if this guy receives a degree. You can question the single sanction, but there has always been a "seriousness" test in the Honor proceedings that serves to prevent someone from being kicked out for a violation deemed not severe enough. A jury of student peers can decide if this wasn't a serious enough offense, but to me its about as bad as it gets. Why would anyone respect the Honor Code if its not imposed in this case?
Sunil - I agree with you...'The Honor Code is dead at UVA if this guy receives a degree'...
However, what I find more sad is that this promising young man decided to play the "race" card and for what? To discredit young black men even more than needed? Did he really need the attention that bad that he had to do something dishonest to be front page news?
Thanks for trying to better relations between whites and black Johnathan Perkins. Good job! Hope your mama is proud! Now when people google your name, they will find this sort of stupididty. Good luck with your law career... Both you and Daniel Paul Watkins
Alice, you should write for the Hook, your off topic rant would fit right in. None of what you said has anything to do with this story, and your lack of actual facts is just plain pathetic.
Moderator, why are some of these racist comments still up on this feed?
Regardless of whether or not Mr. Perkins receives his law degree, he will not be accepted to the Bar. He is an admitted liar and the Ethics Board will have a field day with him.
Anyone who is shocked that this guy is likely to glide through with a UVA degree is completely out of touch with the current state of UVA. You really cannot blame the students themselves entirely. Over the last 20 years, UVA has become a very far left partisan indoctrination center. The constitution, the law, and fairness and honesty are of no consequence if the some imagined evil can be taken on.
The Cavalier Daily regularly prints articles by students claiming that Catholics are "bursting at the seems with blood," that abortions do not effect future pregnancies, and that pretty much every republican in office is going to destroy the country (and the world) - unless of course the brave academic Ivy Tower academics intervene to save both from immenent destruction. This is the kind of person, and the kind of actions, that you end up with. Just have a look at how UVA is letting it all slide now. At least the Honor System is finalling exposed out in the open for what it has been for a long time now.
How is it exposed? You won't know if a fellow student brings him up on charges and you won't know what the verdict is. I would be surprised if he gets his degree but I won't know either.
I have seven colleagues in the UVA School of Law, one of whom I talk to about 5 days a week regarding our activism against their own university. Dozens more in other UVA programs. We have previous experience with how the Honor Committee is not interested in cases that are not "politically correct." And this case would not be "politically correct."
He will graduate. The UVA administration has already shown their hand here. Even if one student stands up and tries to take him on, it will just be made to go away. But I don't think anyone will even bother. People around here are well aware of how the system works. This is just another example of what a bad idea it is to continue to allow UVA to maintain it's own private, armed militia answerable to no one other than the UVA administration. I'm sure plenty of the actual UVA police officers would love to see this guy lose his degree. But they have no say in the matter themselves. Another silver lining here is that it will provide more fuel to the fire of passing the bill in Richmond in January stripping UVA of it's private, armed militia. Susan Russell is a hero.
Red - you make a good point, he could get a degree without anyone knowing right away. But if people care they'll eventually find out. And like Sunil said . . if he graduates, that will be the beginning of the end of the honor code. Nobody will take it seriously if this goes unpunished.
Just like in many of hte Physics students, he could get his degree taken back after the fact.
This is an open and shut honor case. If no one else files I will do so myself.
Mark the day and time. GSOE and I agree on an issue, "The kid should have been charged with filing a false report with the UVA cop shoppe, it's that simple."
All though his first comment, about who and what is charged is dated and irrevelant in modern LEO opeartions. See ya next time S.
He's willing and able to lie convincingly.
He should be admitted to the bar right away without need to take the bar exam; he's already qualified for the practice of law.
They can give him George Bates' unused license...
@CRev May 10th, 2011 | 11:33am
Your post was a pathetic pack of lies. Blacks have a virtual monopoly on this sort of hoax, and the only time they have ever, to my knowledge, been imprisoned was when their race hoax was accompanied by insurance fraud.
virtual monopoly?
ask Emmett Till about that. oh, wait a second, he's dead...
then there's Tulsa, just to name a couple of easy ones
not that I don't agree that honor charges should be brought, but mr. stix is seriously out of touch with reality
"Silence from the new president of U.Va. is rather telling."
Perhaps no one has told her yet.............
you have to love that leadership.
Alumni- any comments?
Perhaps Perkins is giving the commencement address.
and where is the ACLU on this?
HarryD, what exactly would the ACLU do in a case like this? Whose civil liberties were infringed upon?
This bozo is clearly in the wrong program . He should be in the fiction drama class . Working in the justice system lawyers are in a position of Trust all the time . This fellow would know or should that at his late stage of studies . He is clearly unworthy of anyone's trust and should be remouved pronto .Letting him gradute would demean and degrade Law degrees in general and this U's in particular plus all worthy members of his peer group .He is a pathetic disgrace to any race .Suspension is in order while due process via all venues is conducted . The police on duty at the time of the alleged incident have been smeared and, therefore,they should collectively file criminal and civil suit .I suspect this might be a Federal Civil Rights infringement also .
I'm hoping, really hoping, that the UVA police have been generous in not filing charges because they took the case straight to the Honor Committee.
We won't really know, though, until somebody out there finds this man's resume and sees whether or not he mentions a UVA degree on it. Oh, wait... that would require he tell the truth on his resume. Oh well, we'll never know.
He does not really harm anyone, as he did not name the persons in " false report". There are so many cases where people are hurt by false report and the reporter does not get prosecuted at all,and was protected by the people who are in position to prosecute for no reason but they want to show others they never make mistake in their work. Prosecute those false reporters who hurt people. No consequence in this case.
People who were mayors are arrested and still in office, why be so hard to a kid, as long as he learned the lesson and do not do the same in the future.
Sad comment on UVA and the new President who is MIA
The Bar Examiners will not admit him to the practice of law if he is found morally unfit. A single letter to the Bar association citing this article would snuff out his career. This really was rank stupidity on his part. And Joe Cecil is right. Where the heck is the University's so-called President? Her handling of the Genoways thing was bad enough, but forgivable as the inexperience and gullibility of a newbie. At this point it is beginning to look like there is nobody in the President's office. Just a place-holder sitting in the chair.
So, did he walk at graduation??
Hoolarious- my civil liberties were infringed upon- he lied and now he has a law degree- so maybe it is OK now.

Even with two ties and a loss in the second round of qualifying last weekend, the Colorado Rapids Under-17 squad qualified for the International Event of the Generation adidas Cup, to be held in April, with an overall 2-1-2 record.
"Our primary goal was to qualify for the International Event," said Head Coach Mitch Murray. "Throughout the weekend we struggled in the final third, but the games were intense and we created some good chances, and we qualified so I'm very happy with the results."
On the heels of a 3-0 loss to the Colorado Rush the previous weekend, lack of finishing has become a theme for the Rapids, who have not yet scored a goal in 2014. But with two scoreless draws and a 1-0 loss, the Rapids' progress this weekend was anchored by a very solid defense, and Murray is not worried about the future.
"I think we have one of the strongest defenses in the region, if not the country," said Murray. "Through the five qualifying matches, they only allowed three goals, and the next closest team gave up six. Our attack in the final third has been an issue, but defensively we've been outstanding."
The squad was bolstered this weekend by help from Quentin Pearson, Miles Chow and Nathan Braaten, who usually play up an age-group with the U-18s. That allowed Murray some flexibility with his lineup, where he moved center back Sam Rabin into the defensive midfielder role. Virtually no training in the position did not keep Rabin from having a standout performance, though, serving as a catalyst for better movement through the defense and midfield.
Now, the squad has two weeks until their next match, during which time they will be able to take advantage of warmer weather to focus on their attack.
"Play in the final third is a must for us. It's a lot of pressure on the defense when you don't score," added Murray. "Our defense is strong, but we need to improve our ability to create more chances and put those chances away, and I think it will come."
The Rapids U-16s return to Development Academy action on March 1, facing the Houston Dynamo at the Houston Amateur Sports Park.
Meanwhile, the International Event of the Generation adidas Cup will take place in April at a date and location to be determined, where the top three teams and invited international clubs will face off for the title. Click here for more information.

New American
March 23, 2012
As homeschooling families continue to flee Sweden in the face of escalating persecution, the global outcry over the controversial Swedish policies is growing louder. More than a few critics and reporters have even blasted the government's actions and behavior as reminiscent of the former Soviet Union.
In recent days, a senior U.S. lawmaker and popular televangelist Pat Robertson have spoken about the situation as well. And Jews around the world are concerned about the fate of a Jewish homeschooling family being targeted in Sweden, too.
The Swedish government was already facing worldwide criticism from human rights groups for what opponents called its "kidnapping" of Domenic Johansson. The then-7-year-old homeschooler was abducted from an airplane bound for India by police after his parents refused to stop educating him at home — and that was in June of 2009, while homeschooling was still technically legal. The boy remains in state custody, completely isolated from his parents.
The ongoing tragedy drew prompt condemnation from around the world. Organizations like the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF), Advocates International, the Network for Freedom in Education, the Nordic Committee for Human Rights, and many more all got involved. Media outlets from every corner of the globe picked up the story, too, shattering Sweden's image as a "social utopia."
And now, the pressure just got turned up another notch. After a tear-jerking report about the Johansson family's plight by the Christian Broadcasting Network, popular television evangelist Pat Robertson — an American media icon with incalculable global influence — offered his comments: "It's so amazing — this family was leaving," he said. "They were on an airplane — on an airplane leaving — so what do the Swedes care whether they were homeschooling their kid? They were leaving the country!"

Who Are the Democrats?
The two-party system is like those magic black and white squares which look like a staircase at one moment and a checkerboard the next. Sometimes the two parties seem very distinct and sometimes they seem very much alike. This is one of those periods in which they look very much alike, whence the growing disillusion with the two-party system itself. The twin problems of retreat from empire abroad and of conciliating the black revolt at home call for changes of attitude and policy more fundamental than any we have faced since slavery.
The differences between the two parties just aren't that fundamental. To examine the past and nature of the Democratic party, which has normally been the party of change and reform, is to doubt its capacity to cope with the twin crises of our time. In the days of Franklin D. Roosevelt, unlike those of Grover Cleveland, it seemed easy to tell Democrats from Republicans. When we look back on the New Deal now, from the perspective of our present needs, the difference does not look as sharp as it did then. The rhetoric of American political controversy has never prized understatement, and the strategy of the rich has been to scream so loudly at the slightest diminution of their privileges that the sheer decibel count gives the poor the satisfying illusion that a revolution is going on. So it was with the Roosevelt Revolution. When the clamor died down and the smoke of battle began to lift, the Bastilles were still standing.
IF one were trying to explain the American two-party system to a visitor from a different political planet, let us say a citizen of a Soviet one-party state, the simplest way to begin would be to say that both American parties were capitalist parties. The difference between them has been that generally the Republicans have represented the interests of the big property-owners; the Democrats, the small. But both are equally devoted to private property. After five years of Lyndon Johnson, it may be hard to recall that in the Administrations of FDR and Harry Truman the Democrats were tormented by the accusation that they were crypto-Communist. If a Soviet visitor asked hopefully whether it was true that in those days the leadership were secretly inspired by Lenin, one would have to explain that such charges must be taken in the same sense as when oppositionists within a Communist party are denounced as agents of capitalism. This is the universal poetic license of political controversy. When the Democrats are most heatedly accused of interfering with free enterprise, it usually turns out that all they have been doing is trying to slow up the rate at which the big fish of business have been swallowing the little ones.
Any division of the two parties between big property and small requires many qualifications. Big landowners dominate the Democratic party in…

Sugar Rush: Clafoutis at Clafoutis, Santa Fe
You might not expect to find a slice of French pastry heaven in Santa Fe, New Mexico, but the truth is the city is experiencing a francophile streak on the dessert scene. One place that stands out is Clafoutis, a French-owned cafe and bakery where everything is very authentic, and very delicious.
As the name might imply, one of their specialties is clafoutis, a brunch-friendly treat which is traditionally made with dark cherries arranged in a generously buttered dish and covered with a thick, flan-like batter. Once baked, the cherries will rise, forming a sort of pockmarked, surface-of-the-moon type texture. It's generally dusted with confectioners' sugar to pretty it up.
At Clafoutis they like to mix things up, so you'll find different versions on the menu depending on the season (while technically clafoutis made with different fruit should be called flaugnarde, I thank them for keeping it simple). On a recent visit, the version du jour was mixed berry.
What a beautiful combination. The texture at the bottom is sort of like that of a crepe or dutch baby, but with the heft and creaminess of custard or flan. The melange of sweet and slightly tart berries was a wonderful complement to all that smooth, rich creaminess. Considering the size of the slice you'll get, it's well worth the $4.50 price tag.
If you're still hungry, it's highly recommended that you linger for one of their light-as-air macarons or one of their beautifully crispy-edged croissants; if you're in the mood for something savory, their croque monsieur is exceedingly satisfying in all its ham-and-cheesy decadence.

MORIOKA, Japan (Reuters) - Once viewed as a backward part of northeast Japan, so snowy it was known as "Japan's Tibet," the city of Morioka and surrounding Iwate prefecture came into their own 30 years ago, when the superfast Shinkansen train began running up north.
Just 2.5 hours from Tokyo, Morioka and its laid-back lifestyle, surrounded by mountains ideal for hiking in summer and skiing in winter, makes a good weekend getaway for anyone tired of the bustle of Tokyo.
Laced with rivers that in autumn are filled with spawning salmon, the city has lots of narrow, twisting roads perfect for strolling, with cafes and idiosyncratic restaurants - some featuring just a single item. Looming over the city is the conical Mt. Iwate (2,039 meters/6,686 feet).
Though Iwate was one of the areas hit hard by the 2011 quake and tsunami, the devastation was confined to the coast two hours east. Visitors can have the satisfaction of knowing the yen they spend is helping with reconstruction.
Reuters correspondents with local knowledge help you make the most of a 48-hour stay.
7 p.m. - Dinner options abound. Restaurants are concentrated in the street running down to the Hachiman Shrine on the city's eastern side, the center of town where Odori and Eigakan-dori (Main Street and Movie Street, respectively) intersect, and the Sakurayama area, a few narrow streets clustered together between the Iwate Prefectural Government building and Sakurayama Shrine.
Try "Mass," in Sakurayama, a Japanese-style pub that features locally produced, organic ingredients and some creative twists on traditional foods. The sashimi, or raw fish, is fresh and the assorted steamed vegetables simple but satisfying. A wide array of sake is available, and the owner's ties to local brewers mean some of the people who made the sake could be in the restaurant. (019-651-1510)
People yearning for meat should try "Wasabi," a restaurant a few blocks from Sakurayama that features juicy yakitori, grilled chicken on skewers with vegetables. (019-623-1519)
10 p.m. - Morioka is not known for its wild nightlife but there is a live music bar just across from the Sakurayama Shrine, and a few karaoke pubs.
8 a.m. - Head for the hills! In the winter, that means skiing. There are three downhill ski areas, each less than an hour's drive away: Shizukuishi, Amihari and Iwate Kogen. Amihari and Iwate Kogen are tucked into side slopes that rise to the peak of Iwate-san, while Shizukuishi sprawls - at least for a Japanese ski area - across two peaks overlooking a narrow valley studded with rice farms.
Shizukuishi (http://www.japan-iwate.info/app/location_detail.php?lid=141), which was the site of the 1993 World Alpine Ski Championships, has several straight, very steep slopes, while Amihari, which is favored by local cognoscenti, especially telemark skiers, blends steep slopes and crisp snow with long glides and sections studded thickly with moguls. (http://www.qkamura.or.jp/iwate/)
For lunch, try Amihari Ramen, noodles in steaming broth with slices of roast pork, at the restaurant below the slopes.
4 p.m. - After skiing, soak your cold, aching body in one of several local onsen, or hot springs. Arine Sanso, at the foot of the lowest Amihari lift, features a steaming outdoor bath where you can gaze out over a snowy valley as the flakes drift down.
7 p.m. - After a long, wintry day, there's nothing like a nabe - a stew of various meats, fish and vegetables cooked on a tabletop burner, with diners dipping out what they want into individual bowls as it is cooked. Though most restaurants in Morioka provide nabe throughout the winter, some of the best examples are found at Gochi, a few blocks from Sakurayama. Their Mizutaki nabe features chicken simmered so long it slides off the bones. Other standards include sashimi and what can almost be called Japanese fusion food, blending elements of both Japanese and Western cooking. A flask or two of hot sake from the long list will warm you up even more. (019-626-2363)
9 a.m. - Stroll around Morioka, which remains a walkable city centered around Iwate Park. Once the site of the castle of the local feudal Nambu clan, the castle was razed after the clan backed the wrong side in the final war that led to modern Japan. Massive stone walls are all that remain, planted with cherry trees, red maples and flowering perennials such as azaleas, wisteria and hydrangeas.
Head either north or south from the park along the Nakatsugawa River, criss-crossed by bridges. In autumn, salmon make the long journey from the sea to mate and then to die, flapping and splashing in the shallows. Winter brings the arrival of swans.
10 a.m. - Narrow streets on the eastern side of the park hold a number of interesting shops, including Japanese paper shops, antiques stores and a bakery selling Nambu Sembei - crisp round crackers studded with black sesame seeds or peanuts. There are also a number of small, idiosyncratic coffee shops.
Noon - Iwate is known for soba (buckwheat) noodles, since in the days before cold-resistant rice strains buckwheat grew much better in the region. Oyone, just behind the government building, features thick home-made noodles in either hot or cold soups with a variety of toppings. Or gather a bunch of friends and try Wanko soba, in which people compete against each other to eat as many small bowls of soba as they can in a certain period of time. A local chain called Azumaya is famous for this.
3 p.m. - Head north to Ho-onji, a temple with a huge building holding some 500 wooden statues said to be disciples of Buddha. Each one is said to have a different face.
Afterwards, meander back south. Along the way is a large stone said to be the origin of the name Iwate, which means "stone-hand" and refers to demons who left their handprints in a stone as a pledge to not bother the locals again.

In the June issue of Playboy, Rockstar's Dan Houser gave a somewhat rare full-page interview on Grand Theft Auto 4 and violent video games. Why, Houser was asked, don't other entertainment industries offer more support for video games, since their controversial content is often targeted for criticism in the same fashion?
"It's about economics. We take market share and audience from other media - video game makers are challenging the Hollywood hegemony - so they're going to fight us. But I'm not going to fight them. I believe your Constitution protects us."
When interviewer Scott Alexander asked Houser about inequity in the way adult games are treated as compared with film and other media, Houser said:
"These are works of fiction. Playing a game that features violence is no different from choosing to see a violent movie. We're not trying to create a 'here's real life' sensation in a video game; it's "you're the star of a movie. We want to re-create the sensations you have watching movies. We're putting those in a video game."
When asked to isolate why Rockstar's games seem to provoke a swath of mainstream anger from certain circles, Houser said:
"We're trying to give gamers freedom. It boils down to critics not liking the fact that people can choose to do 'bad' things in a fantasy world - which to me is silly."
The full interview is print only, so to read the whole thing you'd have to look at a copy of June's Playboy. You know, for the article, of course.

We offer many wall decals in a wide range of pricing, including this wall graphic with a starting price of $20.00.
Applying these wall graphics, like Flyin', from our extensive Just For Kids
category, could not be easier. Just follow this easy step-by-step wall graphics
tutorial or go to our Instructions page for a visual tutorial.
Begin by lying your Flyin' wall decal on a hard, flat surface and squeegee firmly over the entire back of the wall decal, (wall decal will face down, wax-paper backing facing up). This will strengthen the bond between the Flyin' wall decal, found in the Just For Kids category, and the transfer tape and help release the bond formed between the wall sticker and the wax paper backing. Remember, these two have been together since they were made and sometimes a little extra time and effort will ease their separation anxiety.
Next, keeping your Flyin' removable wall decal face down carefully begin to remove the wax paper backing by rolling it slowly back, keeping it parallel and making sure that your wall decal is adhering to the "sticky" transfer tape, If it is not replace the wax-paper and rub the back of the Flyin' wall decal again with the squeegee. For particularly fine wall decals, such as small letters, you may need to roll the wax-paper backing VERY SLOWLY-folding it back on itself. The key to finely detailed wall graphics is PATIENCE.
Now that your Flyin' wall decal, from the
Just For Kids category, is fully adhered to
the transfer tape you can begin applying it to your surface. Please be sure to
measure and, if necessary, use a level to achieve your desired results. Arrange
the Flyin' removable wall graphic on your surface and press the top
edge of the transfer tape firmly all the way down, avoiding bubbles and
Finish the application by rubbing over the entire Flyin' wall decal with the squeegee in order to activate the bond between the wall vinyl and your surface, and to remove any air bubbles. The Flyin' wall decal as well as many others in the Just For Kids category,will look amazing with a little time and patience.
To finish, gently pull off the transfer tape starting from the top and rolling downward keeping the paper at a 45 degree angle. Be very careful while peeling the transfer tape back and exposing the Flyin' wall decal. If part of the wall graphic sticks to the transfer tape, simply roll the tape back and press down firmly and continue.
Remove any air bubbles by gently rubbing over the Flyin' wall decal with a clean cloth. If bubbles persist you may pierce the bubble with a very fine needle and then smooth. These steps will ensure a long and lasting bond. Remember, the Flyin' wall sticker or any wall graphic from the [birds and insect] category can be easily trimmed by using a sharp Exacto tool and a straight edge.
We have also included several tips and tricks for installation of your wall
graphic from the Just For Kids category. Follow these tips for a successful
installation of your Flyin' removable wall sticker.
When you receive your Flyin' wall decal unroll it and lie flat for at least 24 hours. We often put our wall decals from the Just For Kids category, on sheets in unusual ways to save space and vinyl, simply cut out sections individually, (except words and names should be left whole), and apply as instructed.
If you plan on applying your Flyin' wall decal to a window, a glass surface, or any other flat non-porous area (such as plain metal or plastic), it will stick strongly and right away. For these kinds of surfaces we advise wetting the surface beforehand (you can use a sponge for instance). This will allow you to re-position the Flyin' wall decal if you need to. Once the wall decal is in place, squeegee the wall graphic until all of the water and bubbles are removed. Once the surface is dry the Flyin' wall decal will bond to the surface.
If you have a large size wall decal to apply, have a friend help you. This
can make the application much easier. There are many large removable wall
stickers in our Just For Kids category.
A large wall decal can easily be cut apart to make application easier, just be sure to make note of where each section goes and when you apply it to your surface overlap each piece VERY slightly. The seams will be virtually invisible.
When working with a tall wall decal work from the bottom ensuring the decal is level at the floor/baseboard. Leave a little extra at the floor/baseboard so you can remove the very bottom for a truly custom look. For exact cuts use an "Exacto" knife or a sharp blade.
Remember to measure your Flyin' wall decal when it arrives as the
measurements on the website are ONLY estimates. All wall graphics from the Just For Kids
category as well as all of the other categories, implement sizing estimations.
If you want to remove the Flyin' wall decal, simply peel it off gently by hand or use a blow dryer (set heat position) if it's on a fragile surface.
We, at High Style Wall Decals, take your satisfaction in the Flyin'
wall decal very seriously and want each and every customer to be satisfied with
their purchase. If you are not happy with your Flyin' wall decal
purchase, or any wall graphic from the Just For Kids category please
contact us. If you think we could improve in some way, we are interested in your
feedback. Please enjoy your Flyin' wall decal, from the
Just For Kids category, and we hope to see you
back here soon shopping at our ever evolving wall decal website.

A spokesperson for Sterling Equities, the development group of the Mets owners, vociferously denied the Post report, claiming it was overblown, but these two events did thrust gambling into the limelight this week.
Addabbo argues that making "the gambling age 21 would ensure that there is a smaller likelihood that the youths in the state develop gambling addictions," citing the new casino at the Aqueduct Racetrack and its close proximity to the nearby John Adams High School as a target of possible future gaming addicts dropping their "lunch money" into the slots.
The decision is one that would not only affect the city, but their target of the Queens casino would also affect the entire state.
Aqueduct has been a place of gambling since 1894 and has neighbored the school for 89 years since it's establishment in 1924, so why have these politicians chosen 2013 to change the law when this has been a "problem" for 90 years?
If the Post report is to be believed, the Mets owner thought a casino would be a good way to recoup their losses in connection with the Bernie Madoff scam.
Meanwhile, the state currently faces budgetary insufficiencies topping the $1 billion mark for the coming year, so one has to wonder whether Goldfeder and Addabbo's motives have been thoroughly thought through.
If businessmen like Wilpon and Katz thought it was a good idea to run a gambling operation to get back in the black, than as far as we're concerned the state shouldn't be ruling it out either.
Placing more restrictions on Resorts World given the tax revenue generated by the company seems shortsighted, especially considering the management at the casino is far stricter about who walks through its doors and lays their money down than was ever the case when Aqueduct operated solely as a racetrack.
Instead of attempting to make national news for a solution to a local issue, if these politicians want to save the youth from the road to gambling, they should look into saving after-school programs and helping parents build a stable home for their children.

Spain will take until 2017 to meet the European Commission's budget deficit target of 3 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), the country revealed on Friday.
The country's Economy Minister Luis de Guindos said new deficit numbers had been agreed with the European Commission.
Under the plan, Spain's deficit will reach 6.3 percent of GDP in 2013, instead of 4.5 percent, as agreed previously.
The deficit will then slowly decline to 5.5 percent in 2014, 4.1 percent in 2015 and 2.7 percent in 2016, Reuters reported on Friday.
"Spain has, to all intents and purposes, thrown in the towel on fiscal austerity. The scale of the government's revisions to the country's GDP and budget deficit targets underscore the extent to which front-loaded fiscal retrenchment has exacerbated Spain's economic downturn and become self-defeating," Nicholas Spiro, managing director of Spiro Sovereign Strategy, said.
Spain cut its GDP forecast for 2013 to a contraction of 1.3 percent from a contraction of 0.5 percent previously. The economy is then forecasted to grow by 0.5 percent in 2014 and 0.9 percent in 2015.
"This is a belated acknowledgement on the part of the Rajoy government that its macroeconomic policies have failed. A laser-like focus on growth-enhancing measures is now needed to help extricate Spain from its crisis," Spiro added.

Our Saturday walks are incomparable. Henry brings a sketchbook and I collect leaves and acorns.
The kids are getting so big, only three are left at home and I can't seem to stop making giant meals and do a double take each time the laundry is caught up.
Today is gray and cloudy and the kitchen is calling me for some baking. A slow kind of Saturday, which is the best of all the kinds.

The Creation Of The Universe
The Religion of the Ignorant
Throughout the course of this book, various significant aspects of the Religion of the Ignorant that appear in our society have been examined. However, the false Religion of Ignorantism does not belong solely to our own time and society. On the contrary, this satanic religion is common to societies in all times and places that have turned away from the true religion. The only differences lie in terms of external form. Although the customs of society and models of behavior change according to time and place, the basic logic remains the same. Putting on a show, for instance—one of the main features of the Religion of the Ignorant—may take place in different forms in different societies. The expressions and gestures that reflect arrogance and self-love may assume different forms. But at the end of the day, the fundamental logic is still the same.
This logic, as emphasized right from the outset, is the result of the Ignorantists having forgotten Allah. As it is stated in the Qur'an, they "... have made Him into something to cast disdainfully behind [their] backs!" (Surah Hud, 92). Members of this false religion are unaware that they have come into this world in order to serve Allah, and that His mercy is their only salvation. Yet it is Allah Who created us, gave us form and appearance in our mothers' wombs, brought us into the world, prepared that world for us, has mercy upon us, causes us to live and will eventually cause us to die. We have no other guardian, Lord, or Deity than Him. We came from Him and shall return to Him. We shall not remain long in this world. Since this is the fundamental
Since this is the fundamental essence of our existence, then it is most unwise to engage in petty calculations of interest in this world, where we shall remain for only a brief time, to show off to one another, to thirst after goods and property that are condemned to vanish, and to choose other guides, other aims and other causes than those in the religion of Allah. The world has been created as the vineyard of the Hereafter. We can attain the mercy and Paradise of Allah in the Hereafter and live a peaceful life in this world only by following His path and holding fast to Allah. That is indeed what we are commanded:
…hold fast to Allah. He is your Protector—the Best Protector, the Best Helper. (Surat al-Hajj, 78)
Everything examined throughout this book reveals the distorted thinking, perspective, customs and behavior produced by the Religion of the Ignorant. When its features are compared to the true religion described in the Qur'an, the enormous gulf between the two can clearly be seen. That difference is the difference between faith and denial. To put it another way, it is the difference between the religion of Allah and the false religion produced by satan. Therefore, there can be no question of any similarity between Ignorantism and Islam, or of Muslims adopting any part of the former. For that reason, the believer can immediately be distinguished from the Ignorantist society. Members of that society soon realize that the believer is not one of them. Yet they cannot comprehend how the belivers' character could be so opposite to their own religion. The logic of the believer is the antithesis of theirs. That is in any case why throughout history, adherents of Ignorantism have been unable to understand the believers and have even accused them of madness.
However, the system to which they belong has no consistent, logical foundations. The words they speak are generally contradictory. They speak of the need to adhere to Islam, but then, in their own eyes, place restrictions upon it. According to their own low intellects, they like some provisions of the religion, but are in favor of other provisions not being implemented, saying that there is no need to go to extremes. They say, "We are Muslims," but add that they don't wish to live by Islam.
As can be seen from these contradictory words, the illogical interpretations, ideas and thoughts of any member of the Religion of the Ignorant totally contradict the verses of the Qur'an. Such people are referred to in the Qur'an:
Among people there is one who argues about Allah without knowledge or guidance or any light-giving Book, turning away arrogantly, to misguide people from the way of Allah. He will be disgraced in this world and on the Day of Resurrection, We will make him taste the punishment of the Burning. (Surat al-Hajj, 8-9)
Such clarity of consciousness and reason are required in order to comprehend the true religion that these can be possessed only by believers. In several verses, Allah has revealed that unbelievers and idolaters are people whose minds and perceptions remain closed:
Allah has sealed up their hearts and hearing and over their eyes is a blindfold. They will have a terrible punishment. (Surat al-Baqara, 7)
We created many of the jinn and humanity for Hell. They have hearts they do not understand with. They have eyes they do not see with. They have ears they do not hear with. Such people are like cattle. No, they are even further astray! They are the unaware. (Surat al-A'raf, 179)
... Allah has turned their hearts away because they are people who do not understand. (Surat at-Tawba, 127)
Ignorantism is therefore the false religion of the irrational and the unaware. Yet reason and conscience should lead them to live by religious moral values, for the true glory, honor and eternal happiness of mankind lie in Islam.
The choice between the two religions lies with the individual, as is explained in a verse:
There is no compulsion where the religion is concerned. Right guidance has become clearly distinct from error. Anyone who rejects false deities and believes in Allah has grasped the Firmest Handhold, which will never give way. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. (Surat al-Baqara, 256)

I'm the tech-geek in the family. My 3-year old daughter is a close second.
Therefore, it didn't surprise anyone when I upped and bought the new iPad, replacing my first generation tablet. I've come to love apps. There's an app for everything – and people don't just say that, it's true! With home, work, school and life, I've come to depend on quite a few apps. 'Top 8 iPhone apps for busy women' in Forbes.com identified some interesting apps but I'm not just busy. I'm a task mistress so here are my top 8 smart apps:
1. CloudWord
This app is fantastic as it helps me create editable documents, with formatting. It saves it in the 'cloud' such that I can pick it up anywhere and it doesn't take up space on my pad. Also, I can email the document as a jpg, PDF, png and so on. It really keeps me working on my dissertation on the fly. Plus, it's free – as are most of these.
2. iThoughtsHD
I discovered this app a few months ago when I was looking for something for mind mapping. It's expensive but I use it a lot to join my ideas together in order to arrive at something coherent. I'm not sure where I'd be mentally without this beloved app.
3. DocScan
At first I thought my eyes were deceiving me when I came across this free app. It actually scans documents such as receipts, business cards etc and saves them. Scans can be sent as emails. It's great for scanned business cards (in case I lose them), the kids' party invites (again in case I lose them) and so on. I'm basically a walking talking scanner!
4. WordPress
This post is written with my WordPress app. It is a must-have for me if I'm going to inject life into my blog at any sensible frequency. I can upload photos, and files – editing on the fly. If I had to wait till I was in front of a PC and steaming with ideas at the same to write a post, posts would be bi-annual.
5. SudokuBook
One of my hobbies is numbers so Sudoku is right up my alley. I own volumes of sudoku workbooks but this app is a good option. Actually, it's a great time waster. Waiting is not my strong point so it helps me focus my brain on something else while I wait for the next challenge. It's great in queues, public transport, banks and school pick-ups. Not that I'm anti-social or anything…
6. Evernote
I recently downloaded this free app. I feel as if I've been thrown into an endless garden. A creative junkie's amusement park, in short. I'm still discovering the many abilities of Evernote. It's been talked about a lot and even featured in the article I've mentioned on Forbes.com. I can pour my ideas down with words, photos, audio, amazing. And I can send my thoughts to any computer or device! I can finally trap these thoughts in one place….forEvernote.
7. Audio Memo
It's no wonder I'm into audio, thanks to Evernote. I also need to interview folks for my dissertation so I'm loving this app. Before I discovered it, I was on eBay hunting for a tape recorder! (I thought you said you were techy???) This app helps me capture an interview with a lot of cool features such as marking the beginning of each question. This app has a free version that has a reasonable amount of capability but the cool feature that I mentioned comes at a cost. Still, it beats the tape recorder idea.
8. Angry Birds
I haven't come across statistics about whether men play this game more than women (if it's not out there, I'm sure it will soon be). But I play this a lot. In fact, my son, my daughter and I play this, and we basically get in an orderly (rarely) line and take turns. Another time waster but great fun! It's not as subtle as Sudoku so I tend not to play it in the parking lot or on queues (I can't make it look like I'm texting like I can with Sudoku).
So there you have it. 8 apps any woman who calls herself a task mistress should have.
Thanks for reading.

2 For UHP (Mercury) lamps, expected lamp life is based on lamp manufacturer's rating. Typical expectation is that greater than 50% of lamps will reach lamp life rating when operated as specified.
3 The RPMSP-D180U uses an exclusive 6 segment color wheel with superior color performance and color matching at maximum brightness settings. The RPMX-D132U and RPMSP-D132U use a standard 4 segment color wheel with a white segment to enable higher brightness. The white segment may be disabled from display use, which enables bestcolor matching ability.
4 Maximum contrast ratios are shown. The contrast ratio specified is the "natural" contrast ratio measured by both full field and ANSI methods. Such values are critical for proper contrast performance assessment – especially for video walls. These values are not based on using "dynamic" enhancements, which are primarily designed for individual video displays and can affect brightness.
5 For best long-term performance and reliability, Christie recommends that all electronic equipment, such as projection systems, are regularly operated at temperatures below 77°F (25ºC).

The past 2 weeks I've been slacking on the Weekend Guide, posting it late on Friday night. I'm trying to get back on track and stay focused one what's really important, you my dear blog. Alrighty, lots of good stuff happening this weekend so lets get right into it!
Friday Feb 24th
Start your Friday at OhWow in West hollywood seeing Terry Richardson's Terrywood Hollywood themed art opening from 6-9pm.
At 8pm on Friday night I will be watching Ronna and Beverly at the UCB Theatre. Tickets are $10, and the show will be amazing because it always is. I wait for this show every month and this months Guests are Jeff Garlin and Marissa Jaret Winkor. Check out the video to get a feel for this "All Jew Review":
Saturday Feb 25th
If you aren't up for a walk or hike, check out The Carnival of Magic Medicine downtown from 1-9p. Advance tickets are $20 and the event includes kids yoga, visits with Tarot Readers and Shamans, a great auction including services and art from well-known people/places around LA. Check out the schedule HERE. The event sounds pretty cool, so if you have an open mind about this lifestyle, hop on the metro and head downtown to the event.
Chevy Metal is playing on Saturday at Rock & Roll Pizza in Topanga Canyon at the Rack. I know I don't seem very "rock and roll" so why am I telling you about this? Because Chevy Metal is a 70's cover-band with the drummer and guitarist from the Foo Fighters. Awesome, right?
Photo taken from THIS website.
Hadley Holliday has an art opening displaying her abstract series Warp and Weft, from 6-8pm in Culver City at Taylor de Cordoba.
Finish out your fun-filled Saturday with an 8pm visit to Meltdown Comics for their Spidey and Friends show. Tickets are $10 and you can get them HERE.
Sunday Feb 26th
On Sunday you will find me at CoLAboration's craft beer event downtown at The Belasco. $25 gets you a glass (which is your entry into future CoLAboration events) and 3 beer tokens (good for 3 fills). Come check out the scene and try some new brews. For those of you who can't make it, I'll have a full report next week.
For people boycotting the Oscars, check out the Upright Citizens Brigade 7:30p FREE Asssscat Show. Because it's free, they don't take reservations which means you need to get there early to claim your spot in line. But the waiting pays off by getting to see some of the best improvers in the biz. Many of them haven't achieved stardom, although they should. Chad Carter and Sean Conroy are 2 of the greatest improvisors who frequent this show. You need to see them in person, in addition to Matt Besser, Matt Walsh, and Ian Roberts (3 of the 4 UCB founders) who also often frequent this show. They never give the line-up in advance but it's always good. They do this free show every Sunday and you should check out a video I found of a prior show on youtube:

Generation Works, an artist-run space in Tacoma, Washington, recently staged its last-ever project as part of the Upcoming Exhibitions program at abc art berlin contemporary, an art fair founded in 2008. Harry Burke reflects on their last exhibition, and on the project as a whole.
Generation Works' beginnings as a foreclosed condo in Tacoma, Washington.
Generation Works is responsible, progressive, made of stone, its website says to you, with a touch of imagination, patience, openness. The website header, lifted from the online home of another company with the same name, appears against a background that fades from white to baby blue. In the bottom left is the emblem of its sister organisation, Open Shape, its logo like a better version of its DIS counterpart. DIS were at the fair too, in fact, in a real booth, on the Saturday presenting a talk declaring Mainstream as the truest Avant Garde.
Generation Works is the name of an artist-run space in a condo in downtown Tacoma, Washington. Since 2012 it has played host to exhibitions by three American artists: Alex Mackin Dolan, Bunny Rogers, and Jasper Spicero. It is Jasper who curated the space, which runs through three rooms, and which admitted no visitors for any of its exhibitions. On September 19 of this year, between 5:00pm and 7:00pm CET, the project space staged its last-ever exhibition in an impromptu two-walled gallery construction in the foyer of Art Berlin Contemporary, an art fair. The condo in Tacoma has been foreclosed.

Katie Holmes is the Face of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics
Yes, Katie Holmes is the New Face of Bobbi Brown
Yesterday's rumours were true: Katie Holmes has signed on to become the first face of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. "Katie Holmes epitomises the modern 'Bobbi woman'," Bobbi Brown said in a statement. "I think of her as the modern day Ali McGraw, who I have always admired."
This isn't the first time that Katie has starred in a campaign, but it's a first for Bobbi Brown. Katie is the brand's first celebrity spokeswoman, a contrast to the "real women" of past campaigns and Brown's forthcoming book, Pretty Powerful. Expect to see Katie appearing in advertisements beginning in Spring 2013, and look for the partnership to kick off in just a few days; Bobbi Brown will lead the makeup team for Katie's Holmes & Yang show at fashion week.
