"I think of Soltan as the Maureen Dowd of the blogosphere,
except that Maureen Dowd is kind of a wrecking ball of a writer,
and Soltan isn't. For the life of me, I can't figure out her
politics, but she's pretty fabulous, so who gives a damn?"

A Double Flowering


From LSU Beat:

LSU point guard Tack Minor's suspension for academic dishonesty has been prolonged another day. He will not play against Louisiana-Lafayette in tonight's 7 o'clock game at the Maravich Assembly Center as LSU previously reported


…In an exclusive interview with Gannett on Friday, Minor confirmed that he was suspended because of double plagiarism.

"I had somebody write two papers for me, and they plagiarized them," Minor said. "I was punished for it, and I accept it. It was a big mistake. I won't make a mistake like that ever again."
