Woman Who Falsely Cried Rape Convicted of Manslaughter

Woman's violence-by-proxy gets jail time. Are we reaching the point where we are now holding women accountable? I hope so! Excerpt:

'FORT WORTH, Texas — An Arlington woman who caused her lover's shooting death by falsely crying rape was found guilty Friday of involuntary manslaughter.

Tracy Denise Roberson, 37, cried slightly when the verdict was announced after jurors had deliberated for more than a day. The punishment phase was set for Monday, and she faces two to 20 years in prison.

In late 2006, Darrell Roberson came home from a late-night card game to find his scantily clad wife with another man in a pickup truck in the driveway. Tracy Roberson was with her lover but cried rape, and her husband fired four shots into the truck as Devin LaSalle was driving off, killing him.'

Oh and by the way, the boys may have been abused, too

Story here. Excerpt:

'SAN ANTONIO - Authorities investigating whether teen girls in a polygamist sect were forced into underage marriages and sex said they are also looking into possible abuse of young boys — allegations that drew a sharp rebuke by sect's members.
...
In a written report, the agency said interviews and journal entries suggested young boys may have been sexually abused, but didn't elaborate.

Cockerell also said 41 of the 463 children seized from the Yearning For Zion Ranch in Eldorado had evidence of broken bones. Some of those children are "very young," he said.
...
Before Wednesday's disclosure, the state had argued it should be allowed to keep the boys, not because they were abuse victims, but because they were being groomed to become adult perpetrators in the sect. Men in the sect take multiple wives, some of whom are allegedly minors.'

UNL Student Paper: Women-only gym hours not likely - but still, it'd be OK if they had them

Story here. The story starts out by saying that women-only hours at the gym are not likely at UNL. Then it says that Kalamazoo College has had women only hours for about 3 years. The funny thing is at Harvard everyone justifies the discrimination against men by pointing out that there are other gyms on campus. At Kalamazoo College, there is no other gym! Excerpt:

'Several of the schools' women-only gym hours were made to satisfy the women's religious desires. A group of Muslim women from Harvard, Orthodox Jews from Queens College and Christians from Wheaton College successfully lobbied their schools to implement women-only hours. Kalamazoo College offers women-only gym for an hour and half Tuesday evening and early Sunday morning to make their women feel more comfortable.

Story here. Excerpt:

"A suspended middle school teacher out on bail for allegedly having sex with two students will be back in court Tuesday after police say they caught her having sex with one of them again.

Stephanie Ragusa, 29, was arrested for the third time in about six weeks on charges of sex with a minor, MyFOXTampa reported. She was being held without bond at the Orient Road Jail.
...
Officers discovered Ragusa and the now-16-year-old boy at his house about 12:20 p.m. Monday, the arrest affidavit states. Ragusa had gone to the teen's house to discuss the criminal case but wound up in bed with him, police said.

Detectives nabbed the woman as she was leaving and getting into her boyfriend's truck. Ragusa remained behind bars Tuesday, charged with two counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor."

Serial killer of college-aged men suspected

Story here. Excerpt:

'Gannon and Duarte have done something that no other law enforcement agency has ever done in this case -- they looked at the big picture and visited each site where the young men disappeared.

While most local investigations focused on where a body was recovered, Gannon and Duarte tried to figure out where the body went into the river.

City after city, when they'd find the spot where the body went into the water, they would find something else: The symbol of a smiley face.

...
In Michigan, they found something strange among the group's graffiti: the word 'Sinsiniwa.' They couldn't figure out what it meant until a few months later when they arrived in Dubuque, Iowa to investigate the death of Matt Kruziki.

His body was found on Sinsiniwa Avenue. Plus, they've discovered the nicknames of people in the group at more than one location.
...
They have already taken all of this evidence in the Jenkins case to Minneapolis Police and Hennepin County prosecutors--so why haven't they taken action? We will ask them.'

Flirters will be shorn!

Story here. We all knew that in strict Muslim countries, talking to members of the opposite sex to whom you are not related and for non-commercial or other very practical reasons is forbidden. But apparently, this doesn't stop nature from taking its course. So instead of locking everyone up, one particular political leader has decreed that men caught talking to or trying to talk to women in public will have their hair cut off.

I suppose it's better than getting tossed into jail. Or is it? There are cultural implications in the Middle East to having one's hair forcibly shorn that perhaps may make it more distressing than spending a few days in lock-up.

No mention of what happens to women who respond to a man's greeting, though.

Excerpt:

'RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) - A governor in northern Saudi Arabia has ordered authorities to punish men who flirt with women in public places by cutting their hair, local media said Tuesday.

Local Fathers' Activism Heats Up

Local Fathers' Activism Heats Up

"Caring people attempted to offer a small antidote to the abusive and vilifying ways that gender feminists and local politicians poisonously treat good Fathers (and men). Far too many Dads have entered the beat dead Dads’ graveyard, but with dedicated efforts to focus attention on the issues facing Fathers and men, activists are hopeful of changing the despicable way good Fathers (and men) are being routinely abused in Los Angeles (and American) society."

iRobot Roomba: Husband is an ass

I'm surprised this hasn't made it onto the Boycott List yet. Video found here.

The iRobot Roomba is a vacuum cleaner, and of course the commercial depicts a frustrated wife complaining about her dirty home.

"I don't know about you, but I live with a bunch of animals. My kids are pigs, and my husband is a . . . [image switches from the woman to a donkey]."

Obviously, it is cute and humorous for a wife to call her husband as an ass.

Washington Post v. RADAR

Article here. Excerpt:

'Over the past three weeks, a notable public faceoff occurred in the Washington Post.
...
Without providing any research evidence, Meier goes on to make the improbable claims that most custody disputes "arise in the context of mothers seeking to end abuse or protect their children" and "mothers have few means of protecting their children from dangerous fathers". Meier's statements represent a serious misrepresentation of a well-known government statistics, and are highly defamatory of fathers.'
