Well, I think a good start would be for the school to assign a victim's advocate that is solely responsible for helping the victim — not for making school policy decisions. Having that person able to work with the police, family members and administration would take a lot of weight off the victim.

I know the Rolling Stone article made it a point to explain that attackers/rapists are predators and these incidents are not a one time slip up (felt dirty for just typing that).

I think there should be some regulation about who gets to handle rape cases though. I mean, shouldn't the person responsible for making these decisions have training in related legal and medical matters? Right now it seems like they are chosen on their understanding of public relations.

I also wonder if there is a different standard towards crimes committed against other students and crimes committed against faculty.

Dust off and nuke it from orbit. Only way to be sure.

I do kind of wonder why current students are not transferring out as fast as they can manage. This has gone passed one bad incident to a systemic problem.

She doesn't do anything to punish rapists or assure rapists are separated from their victims. What does she do that qualifies as 'nice' to victims?

Admit that you didn't cite sources correctly and your ass is grass. It's only violent crimes that are approved by the school (with notification after the fact).

Polly is lovely, that is a gorgeous ear set. In theory the girls are supposed to be smaller than the boys but that so rarely happens — big coon girls are awesome. My coonie boy would object to being called sedentary. At 8 years old he still keeps up with our 8 month old kitten — and even our 11 year old matriarch…

NFC mostly develop coat in the second and third years, they are really medium sized cats. 75% layers of coat, mind you. Takes three days for the coat to dry after a bath, which is more hassle than even a Persian coat.

Sherman is a sweetie but he didn't actually take the top prize of 'Supreme Exhibit' — which would be similar to a dog shows 'Best in show'. That went to Premier Pinemarten Tina Sparkle, a British Shorthair Lilac Tortie.

It's actually not that bad since both hips and shoulders are supported, but any show cat needs to be used to handling.

It's a forced perspective thing. Wegies are only medium sized cats, though if this one Supremed he's probably about to age out of the kitten class. Also, 75% of that cat is woolly coat.

Those are the categories for the household pet competitors in CFA. But if you want to judge purebreds you need to know stuff like where the laces are on a Birman, how to tell a lilac from a blue, and why Sphynx need their feet examined during judging.

You can talk about abstinence and still discuss consent —- as in, this is what qualifies as NOT CONSENT. But I guess that takes us ickily close to the idea that consent might happen sometimes.

I had a date try to sing along with the Phantom of the Opera CD. I understand PofO isn't everyone's taste, but failing to imitate an opera singer is no one's taste.

I admit I do find persons who use swearing as a substitute for having a decent vocabulary very off putting. That doesn't have anything to do with what is in their pants, however, that's a general dislike of what is in their brain.

What is magic Mormon underwear? I really don't think I want google that.

Sadly, it's not the sex for books thing that upsets me, but the idea that he'd pick the books.

Could be three minutes of missionary after forty minutes with a vibrator. **shrug**
