Update = Outlook Crashing
Just downloaded the most recent Yosemite update, and now Outlook is crashing. Way, way too busy for this nonsense! Can anyone help?

Where you running Yosemite prior to this upgrade? What version? Was it the latest security update?
Have you tested in a new Identity to see if Outlook stops crashing.
Are you updated to Office v 14.4.8?
Have you run Font Book to validate your fonts. Microsoft fonts often cause odd crashes.
How to use Font Book to validate fonts
1. Open Font Book in your Applications folder.
2. Select All Fonts.
3. Now click in the list of fonts and select all (Edit > Select All).
4. Under File in the Menu bar, select Validate Fonts.
5. Duplicate fonts will be marked with either the yellow badge or a black dot.
6. Select to remove or delete duplicates.*
7. Delete font caches
8. Restart your computer
* Step 6 – remove or delete duplicates is where the tricky part comes in. You can select to let Font Book disable or remove duplicates, but I’ve found that it removes the one you have not been using rather than selecting the best option. See Font Management in OS X, by Kurt Lang, for more info on fonts.

Microsoft fonts are older than the same font installed by Apple in the main fonts folder. I would delete the older Microsoft versions.
Thanks for the tips. I will try some of your suggestions. Here is the crash report:
