Elsewhere for April 8, 2017

You should read this for 4/9/2017: Look Ma! A plagiarizer has the gavel, now even students can fact check your ass, and lunch shaming is shameful, but lunch is better with Kale. And potatoes. And Sausage. 

Gorsuch’s writings borrow from other authors “several passages from the tenth chapter of his 2006 book, The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia, read nearly verbatim to a 1984 article in the Indiana Law Journal. In several other instances in that book and an academic article published in 2000, Gorsuch borrowed from the ideas, quotes and structures of scholarly and legal works without citing them.” Yep. That’s plagiarism. That’s not borrowing; it’s theft, and it is not ok, acceptable or “normal.”

“What is ‘lunch shaming?’ It happens when a child can’t pay a school lunch bill.”
Kale, Potatoes, and Sausage Soup Some soups work for Winter and Spring; this is one of them.

Who Is Erik Prince? æThe Blackwater founder is dealmaking with the Russians,” possibly on 💩🔥💰’s behalf.
One week, three more 💩🔥💰-Russia connections æIn December, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and close adviser met privately with the head of a Russian bank under U.S. sanctions.”
