Was worried about giving cash as a grad gift, but I think this is foolproof 7 comments

Don't think this would stop most drug dealers from accepting it, plus the kid could easily go exchange the cash for smaller bills ("Can I please get two tens, three fives, and five ones?) at a bank. What you should probably do it get the kid a WalMart card. Or even better an Amazon card. Amazon has pretty much anything the kid could need, but not weed or alcohol.
Also, if you don't want the kid to spend money on weed or alcohol, and you know that is something the kid is prone too, maybe don't give it in a card that says "Celebrate, you've earned it" because you're really sending mixed messages there.

Yeah, it was. I get you are trying to sell news and you need to make all the selling points of the story in as few words as possible, but honestly there had to be a better way.
Perhaps: Nebraska Father jailed after daughters' competition resulted in marriage
This version is at least understandable. I realize the incest isn't clear, but I also feel like leaving that out allows for the creation of intrigue. Why was he jailed? Marriage to who? What sort of competition? Maybe I'm wrong on that, but either way, you shouldn't print headlines that require dechipering.
Edit: Also, you're welcome. No promises on its accuracy I did not look the story up.

If I understand correctly (and I could be wrong, that headline is an absolute word salad) A man who is from Nebraska, married his biological daughter. Previous to their marriage, the woman is question had a competition of some kind, with her half sister, over who would get the privilege of having intercourse with the father. [It is unclear if this man fathered both of the involved women, or if one was of no relation at all] The man in question has been sentenced to time in jail. "Flordia Man" is proud.

Organic just means no pesticides. The reason people equate organic with non GMOs is because there are so many GMOs whose entire modification is "is resistant to pesticides"

It's a lake. And the border at the time wasn't along a river at all, but defined by the 45 parallel. Since the forts construction the border between the United states and Canada has moved, so now it's only the 45 parallel west of the lake of the woods, which is part of Minnesota and Quebec, west of lake superior. The fort is in modern day New York.

Unless her answer was "I've never had sex with the father." Which, I assume will be her answer regardless of the truth.

Usually these receipts don't list a starting balance, only a balance after you've finished. I assume they had 500$ more before

The law requires employers to give 10 days annually, and only if they employee has worked for the company for at least 6 months, and works at least 10 hours a week on average, with a minimum of at least 1 hour each week OR 40 hours each month during the last six months.
So, no. If she were to return to her abusive relationship, or start a new one, she would not qualify for additional abuse leave.

When it said he found out where she worked, I was expecting some serious harassment. I was pleased to see that his choice was to instead one time interact with her at her place of employment in a way that is within the boundaries of her job description. Still can't say I approve, BUT I was pleasantly surprised.

Shaving can be beneficial when your goal is to be clean. No hair means no hair to need to wash blood out of. Yes, ingrown hairs can be a problem. It's just noteworthy that not everyone who shaves does so due to appeal.

Tldr: it is complicated, but generally abortion is allowed whenever the mother's life is in danger.
This makes sense actually. The idea that life begins with breathing has a biblical precedent. God literally breathes life into the first humans.

As cute of a sentiment as this is, being nervous and seeming nervous are two very different things. I know that I have gotten good at hiding my anxiety, including talking to people who make me nervous as if nothing is wrong.
And many people who work in my field have trained calm level responses to crisis. Its natural human reaction to either defend yourself (protect your face, leave) or fight back (either more violently or with body language even)when someone else is attacking you. Neither is a helpful response in calming a person down who has picked up a chair with intentions to beat someone with it. With trust built relationships and the training to stay calm and even, staff have talked down many a potential problem.
And when your day job is talking down people with mental illness from violence, staying calm in the face of a pretty stranger isn't very hard, even if you are anxious.
I know not everyone can do this, just maybe don't assume no one can.

I mean, no. Most people who break in to steal your TV are not willing to rape someone at knife point.
While I agree that providing criminals with a weapon and a mask are probably not a good decision. Suggesting that someone whose original plan was thievery would change their plan to include violent crime fundamentally misunderstands why thievery happens.

Nope. Bing was released in 2009. People just didn't know bing was terrible yet.
I had actually suspected that 2009 was the year bing first tried to pay people to use bing, but apparently Bing Rewards started in 2010 and had less impact on use than the original launch.

Well, the law isn't about the criminalization of domestic violence, so it won't effect if you will or won't go to jail. There are already laws which determine this, and you would still have to be found guilty in a court of law. No judge and jury in the world is going to send someone to jail for winning a game both parties consented to playing. The problem you would have is if your forced someone to play, and/or degraded them over their loss. (ie. "How stupid do are you; you're completely useless)
Emotional and Psychological abuse is serious, and definitely should be criminalized. Suggesting that beating someone at Fifa is an example of either belittles the real issue.
