I’ll Tumblr for Ya

While Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter draw the lion’s share of social media attention, there are many other social media platforms available to lawyers. Tumblr, Pinterest and Foursquare are just a few of the alternatives. How can you evaluate which of these tools might be worthy of your time and effort? On The Kennedy-Mighell Report, Dennis Kennedy and Tom Mighell survey the lesser-traveled landscapes of the social media world, identify some tools that might make sense to some lawyers in some scenarios, and speculate about the future of specialized social media tools.

Baugh leaving capital defender job

The capital defender for the central region of Virginia, David Baugh, has quit the post, according to reports.

On his Facebook page, Baugh alludes to a “humiliating” event on Thursday, using the word “betrayed,” and states, “I have resigned as capital defender and am returning to private practice.”

Efforts to reach Baugh were unsuccessful. WTVR reported that it confirmed Baugh’s resignation through his friends.

Baugh was appointed capital defender in 2008. He had a private criminal defense practice from 1983 to 2008. He received the Virginia State Bar’s Lewis F. Powell Jr. Pro Bono Award in 2006. Virginia Lawyers Weekly honored him as a “Leader in the Law” in 2008.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Confirms Brigitte Nielsen Affair!

Better late than never!

If you'll recall, Brigitte Nielsen confessed to her Arnold Schwarzenegger hook-up fest back in 2011. But Arnie never confirmed it...

UNTIL NOW!!

In his new book, the muscle man reveals all the Red Sonja heat they shared back in 1985.

He was living with Maria Shriver at the time... Brigitte claims she knew nothing of the relationship.

This is just one of the many times Arnold "inflicted tremendous pain" on the woman who gave up her career for him. Bleh...

He seems remorseful for his actions now, but when and how will certain people understand the true consequences of cheating before they do it?? It's just not cute!

Erlinder charges WMCL with discrimination based on disability

Erlinder

Professor Peter Erlinder has filed a charge of discrimination with the EEOC against William Mitchell College of Law.

A copy of the charge was mailed anonymously to Minnesota Lawyer, with no note or cover letter.

Erlinder claimed discrimination based on disability and retaliation because he has post-traumatic stress disorder. His PTSD stems from his imprisonment in Rwanda in 2010 and subsequent death threats from  Rwanda’s President Kagame.  He is undergoing treatment and has medication.

He alleged that William Mitchell has been a hostile work environment since he returned from Rwanda.

He stated that he suffered a PTSD episode on Jan. 3, 2012  and that on Jan. 12 Dean Eric Janus ordered him off the campus.  On Jan. 13 he was escorted off the campus by an armed guard, he said.

Janus told Minnesota Lawyer that the school takes its obligations under the ADA “very very seriously and “vigorously denies the allegations of hostile work environment or retaliation.” He said he could not further discuss personnel or employee’s medical matters, but that the school has conducted its own investigation.

Karlie Kloss Works Up a Sweat in the City of Lights

After working the runway at the Lanvin Spring/Summer 2013 show as part of Paris Fashion Week at Les Beaux Arts de Paris, Karlie Kloss took time to keep her svelte figure looking great with a Friday afternoon (September 28) workout.

First, the 20-year-old model loosened up with some running in a black long-sleeved top and cute pink running shorts with matching tennis shoes. Then, she released some aggression with some boxing with her trainer.

Karlie posted a photo to her Twitter account of her scenic view with an accompanying message reading, "Afternoon workout under the Eiffel Tower."

Though she may have worked up a sweat that afternoon, Miss Kloss was all about glamour on Thursday, strapping on her high heels to strut her stuff at the Lanvin show.

The young model struck mostly serious and sometimes sultry poses as she showed off a variety of high-fashion dresses at the City of Lights event.
