Yesterday, University of Texas- Austin student newspaper The Daily Texan won our coveted "Most Racist Trayvon Martin Cartoon" contest for Stephanie Eisner's "WHITE man" vs. "COLORED BOY" media critique pictured above. The paper briefly pulled the cartoon offline when the controversy struck, but put it back up last night, along with an editor's note. Today: the fallout.
Michelle Williams and Jason Segel are apparently dating, according to Us Weekly:
Mustachioed soothsaying simpleton Thomas Friedman long ago mastered a formula for justifying business trips all over the world by writing columns about them—columns that, while not genuinely insightful or even pleasant to read, contain a sufficient number of plausible-sounding platitudes to enable your average Xerox Corporation regional manager to sound informed during his morning meeting with underlings and sycophants.
Add up all the time you spent doing homework. What would you say: a million billion hours? Roughly a trillion bazillion hours doing homework, over the course of your life? Well, as it turns out, it was a complete waste of your time:
Horrible thieves with hearts two sizes too small stole a 2-foot bronze statue of Dr. Seuss' Lorax character from the La Jolla home of the author's ninety-year-old widow last weekend.
Two women in Miami face zero charges after transporting two fetuses into the U.S. from Cuba in their suitcases on January 30th. So I guess it's a cool new thing to do?
On tonight's' Colbert Report, Stephen Colbert took a look at the fear on the right that President Obama will come for their guns if he is elected to a second term. What evidence do they have? Simply that he hasn't made any attempt to come for them yet. As Colbert put it, "no evidence is the only evidence I need."
On tonight's Daily Show, reporter Samantha Bee traveled to Park Slope, Brooklyn to get some first hand accounts of the fight over a proposed ban on Israeli products being waged within the Park Slope Food Coop. As expected, her report highlights the ridiculousness on both sides of the issue and throws in a solid skewering of the coop itself to boot.
The droning chorus of warnings about how prospective employers check your Facebook page so don't put up any pictures of you taking shots or holding up a convenience store and would you please unlike MaggieMoo's, it's embarrassing has grown particularly loud over the past few days.
Do you love the High Line but wish it had a more palpable element of danger? Artist and balloon animal enthusiast Jeff Koons is here to help.
The New York Post reports that the New York City department of Education has advised testmakers of 50 not very controversial "controversial" words to avoid when creating city-wide standardized tests.

Jennifer Coburn is a published author and a full-grown adult. She has a 14 year-old daughter named Katie. Katie just broke up with her boyfriend. How do we know? Because Jennifer Coburn told us all. Thanks, mom.
Charles Forman made tens of millions of dollars selling his company last week. And thank God for that: It's been far too long since "fuck you money" went to a tech whiz who was at least marginally interesting.
Last weekend, the Washington Post ran an op-ed insinuating that college professors might not "work hard enough," citing high average salaries and relatively low workloads for full-time professors. True? Untrue? It doesn't matter. (Except to academia [=boring].) When it comes to winning these public debates, all that matters are the "optics" of the thing. From Inside Higher Ed:
God's righteous anger against America's wanton and sinful adoption of gay marriage and predilection towards consuming Cheez on the Sabbath hath caused him to strike us with plagues like lice, bedbugs, raccoons, and skunks. Still, our licentious nation persists in viewing "PG-13" movies and huffing jenkem. Well now, god has something new for you, Sodomites.
Zooey Deschanel stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight and pushed the very limits of adorkability. There was a story about her "six months years old" nephew, some tales from her childhood and, of course, a ghost hunt. There may have been more but my slingbox couldn't handle it.
