Huffington Post: Armed School Security Guard Clark Arnold Leaves Gun Unattended In Student Bathroom

Posted: 18 Jan 2013 10:59 AM PST

The National Rifle Association sparked controversy in the weeks following Wayne LaPierre's call to place armed guards in every school. LaPierre called such a move "the one thing that would keep people safe," but one that may have backfired for a charter school that took his advice to heart.

While President Barack Obama and gun control supporters have expressed skepticism about staffing schools with armed guards, Chatfield School in Lapeer, Mich. -- like LaPierre -- felt that its students and staff would be safer with such security measures.

So school officials announced last week that they had hired retired county sheriff Clark Arnold to serve as Chatfield's armed security officer.

Huffington Post: Jennifer Hudson, Alicia Keys Get Matchy-Matchy In Leather Tops At Sundance (PHOTOS)

Posted: 18 Jan 2013 11:04 AM PST

Alicia Keys and Jennifer Hudson clearly got the memo that leather is on-trend. The two Grammy Award-winning singers were looking like twins Thursday night in leather accented ensembles at the Sundance Film Festival premiere of their new film project "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete."

Alicia, who produced the film, and Jennifer, who stars in it, opted for edgy looks consisting of leather tops, skinny jeans and black leather boots. Coincidence? Perhaps. However, the film's gritty plot line -- two inner-city kids forced to survive on the streets after their mothers are taken away by authorities -- doesn't really invoke ultra-feminine frocks.

We're loving the versatility of the leather pieces. Alicia's leather-paneled sweater looks warm and cozy when teamed with the white turtle, while JHud's short-sleeve leather button-down is fastened all the way to the top, which is giving a total hipster vibe.

A couple dining at a Red Lobster restaurant outside Albany, N.Y., were surprised to find a bizarrely offensive note written on their takeout container, the Times Union reports.

Cherry Ryan and her husband were eating dinner at the Colonie seafood restaurant when they had what seemed like a pretty minor argument with their waiter over the bill.

When the couple looked at their takeout box the next day, they were "shocked and disturbed" to find the words "Rooster & Bitch Box" (or "Boy") written across the top, according to the report.

Huffington Post: John Geddes, New York Times Managing Editor, Taking Buyout

Posted: 18 Jan 2013 11:06 AM PST

John Geddes, a longtime managing editor at the New York Times, has taken a buyout and will be stepping down in a few months, the paper reported Friday.

"I've arrived at that magical spot where a buyout offer miraculously appears and presents me with new opportunities," Geddes wrote in a note to the Times' staff. "...After serving four executive editors, it is time for new horizons."

Geddes, who has been a managing editor for a decade, becomes the highest-ranking Times journalist to depart the paper during the Times' latest round of restructuring. In December, editor Jill Abramson announced that she was seeking to cut the newsroom by 30 positions to reduce expenses. Recently, reports have More on Newspapers
