Oh Snap! Michelle at the Met
The First Lady unveiled the newly renovated American Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art yesterday in New York City and later delivered a speech about the importance of supporting creative fields during tough times.

Sexual abuse is one of those problems — if acknowledged — Orthodox Jews tend to hush and handle in religious courts, which apparently exist.

Top Chef Recap 5.11: Le Bernardin
I'm bummed: The person I was rooting for was asked to leave during last night's episode of Top Chef. After the remaining six cheftestants were treated to a decadent lunch at guest judge Eric Ripert's New York City restaurant, Le Bernardin, they were asked to recreate a dish. Did you catch the show?
