@Steve,
I'm not even joking
Man: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/…"Tapper told the court he picked the girl up from a public library to have sex, and repeatedly questioned her about her age when he saw she was wearing a school uniform.
The girl told Tapper, who served in the force for 17 years, that she was 19-years-old but still went to school.
Judge Patrick O'Neal said that although Tapper asked the girl about her age, he never requested to see identification."
Woman: http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-new…
"A former Perth school teacher who had sex with a 14-year-old boy is otherwise of "impeccable character" and not a predator, a judge says.The 37-year-old woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty in June last year to three counts of engaging in sexual behaviour with the teenager.
She cried in the dock on Thursday as she was given a 21-month prison sentence, suspended for two years. ...Judge Audrey Braddock said the woman was extremely remorseful and other than the isolated incident she was of impeccable character."
- "The woman was lonely and vulnerable at the time of the offence"...well, ok thenSteveZissou
- The boy was "bold and a willing participant", yeah, that'd be victim-blaming in the reverse scenario...SteveZissou

Under Calderon's law, a waiter who serves a drink with an unrequested straw in it would face up to 6 months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.”

Sensitive Words: Emperor Xi Jinping to Ascend His Throne
https://chinadigitaltimes.net/20…
"Chinese state media announced on Sunday a list of proposed amendments to China’s constitution... the one with perhaps the deepest potential impact on the future of Chinese politics and society... would eradicate the current limit of PRC presidents and vice-presidents to two five-year terms. This would effectively set President Xi Jinping up to maintain his seat as president indefinitely.
Following state media’s announcement, censorship authorities began work to limit online discussion. CDT Chinese editors found the following terms blocked from being posted on Weibo"
examples of terms / words soon to be banned:
• my emperor
• long live — Literally “ten thousand years”
• ascend the throne
• to board a plane— Homophonous with, “to ascend the throne.”
• proclaim oneself emperoralso...
• Winnie the Pooh
• Disney
