For Americans who think of "backpacking" as a type of wilderness camping, this use of the word translates to "traveling by bus or train and staying in hostels (which are a type of hotel dormitory that you share with strangers)"
If there is a gray area, that means you didn't have consent.
If you have consent, it is very unlikely you'll need to get it in writing, or recount a magic set of words. The whole premise shows that the requisite level of intimacy to begin the act hasn't been developed between you. Or in baseball terms, you don't steal home base from the batters box. You have to get to first base, then second base, then third base. If you never made it to first base, you never had a nice date, then you don't get a goodbye kiss; if you never got a goodbye kiss, you shouldn't be trying to laid. Of course a blunt query will get laughed at, just like a batter stepping up to the plate, reaching his foot out and touching home base, and asking the umpire, "that's a score, right?" will get laughed at... if you're lucky.
And getting distracted at work should always get you sent to HR. It is your responsibility to pay attention to your job while at work. You can't push that onto somebody else. "Sexy women exist in the world" is not an excuse to be distracted at work.
The part you seem to miss is: things that don't occur to you... are things you don't know anything about.
If a woman is already turned off just by asking them what they'd like me to do or not do after I tie them to the bed, then they're way too vanilla for me.
So are you saying that that isn't consistent with the legal definition, or are you just throwing up your hands and saying you don't know and don't know how to check?
I'll give you a hint though, the University of Oregon has the only public law school in the State, and the State has a very high per-capita number of lawyers...
Maybe JA was trying to laid, frankly. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
If you wanted to get laid, and you didn't have permission from the other party, but you tried to make it happen anyways... yeah, there is a lot wrong with that.
If you don't have another person's permission... try alone, by yourself. You can hopefully make something happen for yourself.
If you're not even dating the person, and you actually know them through your work... you should not be trying at all. The first step is, is this person even willing to have private social alone-time with you? No? Then you shouldn't be "trying to get laid" with them. If they agree to hang out alone in private during off-work hours, then you have an opportunity to proposition them.
Yeah, this year we even have a Senator who remains registered in the Senate as an Independent, who is complaining that the Democratic Party doesn't consider him a real Democrat. Well, he did change his personal voting registration to Democrat within the past couple years; but to this day he's never changed his Senate registration. Bernie may be a Democrat personally, but as a professional politician who holds office he is actually not one even now.
Just because your state wants to be wimpy about it doesn't mean they have actual scientific reasons to do so.
I'm not sure this word, "scientific," means what you think it means.
But we actually have famous engineering departments out here, and a significant amount of civil engineering goes into both the speed limits, and corner recommendations. For example, if the speed limit is 55, and I'm driving 65, and a corner has a yellow caution sign recommending 45, then it will be comfortable to take at 55. A lot of places in the country, if you just trust the signs and you don't know the road, and it is a windy mountain road, you'll fly off a cliff. Here, if there are signs, they were planned by engineers.
They have a bunch of different techniques, from having viewers press a button when they enter and leave the room, to proprietary boxes with lots of sensors that you won't tell you much about. From their website:
Electronic and proprietary metering technology is at the heart of Nielsen audience measurement. In addition to capturing what channels viewers are watching on each television set in the home, our meters can identify who is watching and when, including “time-shifted” viewing
But the important part is, when they give people the box and are paying them to participate, the instructions they give. When do they want you to push the button? When you're in the room.
what would be the point of doing a copy of a copy etc?, the point is always having the original and using its dna, you can always make more stem cells of the original and keep that batch alive, if you fail to do that then it seems you will not have any business in cloning?
Because much of the market is cloned stud service, with clones of famous studs.
What if lots of people only pretend to agree with it, because they agreed to say so? What if they're being metaphorical when they agree? But repeat the party line anyways?
I do, most people drive 72 on I-5, but some drive 85. Cops generally don't pull people over under 75, but 74 is certainly a possible ticket. Especially in Coburg.
But a rural highway that a truck can pull out on are 55, with a real speed of 62-68.
Way back before twitter was hyped on TV, before it was big, it was being talked about in the RubyOnRails community, since it was a new site that used Rails. And so I saw it before the hype, though I didn't sign up. Actually, when I first saw it, you didn't even have to sign up, it was just some sort of unannounced beta. And it wasn't "microblogging" or whatever. Instead, it posed a simple question: What are you doing right now? And you were supposed to answer in less than n characters. And everybody was like, "huh? Wtf is this for?" They still don't really know what it is for. It is a communication medium that actually managed to promote the tagging of comments in a way that causes users to use tags.
Impressive, whatever it is. Though we had public communication and subject tagging even in the 80s on the BBSes.
and the crime is on the mandatory reporting list (child abuse, and that's about it)
There are lots of things, multiple lists, but they only apply to certain jobs. In addition to crimes involving children, often elder and disabled abuse. Engineers are required to report certain things that create physical dangers. A lot of types of licensed inspectors or auditors have lists of things they are required to report if they find it. Some types of accountants.
This isn't even a government function. That's like blaming the President for Walmart. The "buck" in a political party stops wherever they decide it stops, same as in any group of citizens engaging in an activity together.
You're still adding overhead, it costs you more than just buying and selling regularly. So if you're actually able to time price swings, you would make less money. And if you turn out to only be average at it, you lose money.
The news seems to miss the news, and pat itself on the back.
Nintendo "doesn't actually make Pokemon Go," they just own a significant portion of the Pokemon company. Oh, so they do own that. Oh, they don't actually make the software for the game... but they are the major owner of the company that sells the license and makes the money off merchandise.
Who is more clueless, the investors that thought this being such a huge market hit that there are Pokemon zombies on all the sidewalks would sell merch, or the reporters who can't figure out that the game itself makes less money than the brand boost? They have existing, entrenched retail presence of their merch.
Who is more clueless, the people who think that the stock shouldn't have gone up because Nintendo already included Pokemon Go in their revenue forecast, or people who assume that their forecast was realistic enough that they might have exceeded it?
I don't know if the stock is overpriced or not, or if it was overpriced at its peak. And that makes me better informed than the media on this question!;)
Not only that, but they don't understand the costs involved. 18% sounds like easy money, but you pay a commission to buy and sell, and you also pay rent for the stock that is already priced based on the fact it might go up/down. In the end you could have made a tiny bit of money, or lost some. And if you're shorting things frequently, you'd be losing a lot of money even if you believed each of them would move 18% because you have to be right, and right on the right days.
Probably a lot of these people saying it don't even know what "shorting a stock" means; for those of you, it means you borrow the stock for fixed time, pay rent, and give it back at the end. If you sell it right after renting it, and then buy it back right before you have to return it, you can make (or lose) money. But you have to make more than the rent, which means you have to know more about the stock than the person you're borrowing it from, because they include expected price volatility in the rent. Clearly, if you're some percent smarter than the average existing investor, you'd make more with regular buying and selling than with shorting, because shorting adds overhead and you're still competing with the same other buyers and sellers over prices.
I'll give you a hint: remembering what happened in the study has as much to do with the benefit as remembering running has to do with the benefits of running. Exercise benefits you when you do it, not when you remember it.

A tiny snippet from my life...
"Should we have a safe word or something?"
"No"
"How do I know if you're OK?"
"If I pass out, let go."
So are you saying that that isn't consistent with the legal definition, or are you just throwing up your hands and saying you don't know and don't know how to check?

How does that logic work?
1. Steal the word Hipster from who spoke it ...
2.
3. Profit!

sorry there is no magic politics fairy out there for you to vote for. that's life.
This is America, if you want to vote for Magic Politics Fairy you can write his or her name on the line. ;)

If you used a website called slashdot, you'd be more up-to-date on the cloned beef industry.

See what happens when the copy of the copy of the copy copies itself. That was always the actual question.
Cloning is done extensively in beef production, and the answer is that it tastes the same.
Generally speaking, the industry that measures it considers you to be watching if you're in the same room. And I agree.
What if lots of people only pretend to agree with it, because they agreed to say so? What if they're being metaphorical when they agree? But repeat the party line anyways?

Ah, yes, I think I learned about that one in Logic class... Argument From the Ignorance of Others!
I'm not really impressed. There is no "nuance" in a basic statement of identity.

Dementia is a category of symptoms, not a disease. This story is not about Alzheimer's. I am astounded at the aliteracy.
