Student Drunkenly Emails Professor, Wakes Up To The Best Response

We've all been there.

A drunk text to an ex, photos posted to Facebook, blurry and fuzzy with only a hint of memory. Whether it's an impulsive and uninhibited phone call or an embarrassing video on your Instagram feed, it's safe to say that alcohol and technology don't mix.

Student Patrick Davidson took to his email after a night of drinking, sending his professor, Mr. Martin, a note filled with drunken slang, an apology for Martin's less-than-luscious head of hair, and a request for an extension on an assignment.

Message by Patrick Davidson to his professor.

When does flirting becomes cheating?

When does flirting cross that invincible line from innocent bantering to dangerous dialogue? After researching the topic, I pulled together the following 9 red flags.

1. When it’s secretive.

If you are deleting your text messages or whatsapp messages — either to him/her or from him/her — that’s a red flag. Because by deleting them, you are guessing that your spouse would be upset if he/she read them, and that you are covering up something. Moreover, ask yourself this question: “How would I feel if I knew my wife (or husband) was corresponding to an attractive man in the way I talk to X?” If you feel an uncomfortable knot in your stomach upon answering that question, there you go.

2. If it has a sexual agenda.

This isn’t always obvious, of course. But if you notice that your correspondence with this person feeds your sexual fantasies (because an affair is often about sexual fantasy), then you are probably in dangerous waters. If the communications consist of subtle sexual overtones, watch out. If it feels like foreplay in anyway, that’s not good.

3. If you’re spending a considerable amount of time talking to him (her).

According to marriage therapist Allyson P., a person needs to consider not only the content of the messages sent back and forth but also the amount of them. For example, if you are texting a “friend”  most of the time in a day, that’s a tad extreme, even if the content is about SpongeBob Squarepants. A friend of mine confessed to me that she would spent two hours every night on Facebook chatting with an online buddy until she realized that was more time than she was spending with her husband.

4. If you are rationalizing.

“He is just a friend,” is a statement that you don’t say to yourself when you’re involved in innocent communication. Do you feel the need to justify a very safe friendship? No. It’s obvious to you and to your mate that the companionship is completely appropriate. However, you may very well be investing in an unsafe friendship if you are constantly wrestling with guilt or feel the need to rationalize.

5. If it’s meeting your personal needs.

If you are getting your intimacy needs met in an online relationship or with a co-worker with whom you playfully banter, you might stop to ask yourself why. Be especially careful if you’re sharing intimate sentiments with that person that you don’t share with your husband, or if you feel like your online companion understands you in a way that your spouse doesn’t. Be on guard if you are getting fed in any way by him or her that you don’t at home.

Better to address the holes in your life and fill them in safe ways, even if you can’t within your marriage. Keep in mind, a good sex life isn’t just about chemistry.

6. If you talk about your marriage or your spouse.

It’s disrespectful to share intimate details about your marriage or your spouse, and especially in a discourteous manner or with a flip attitude. Imagine that your wife was overhearing your entire conversation. Would you still say it?

7. If your spouse doesn’t like it.

You have just won a red flag if a husband or wife has expressed disapproval of your communications with X, because it usually means that either the content of the correspondence or the amount of it is off balance—that the interaction isn’t totally appropriate, or the time spent talking (online or offline) with the person is distracting from family life.

8. If your friend voices concern.

Pay attention if a good friend asks you why you are talking about this person so much, or if she says something like, “Wake up. You are married. He is married. You need to focus on what you have and stop obsessing about what you don’t.” Friends, sisters, and mothers can often identify the red flags before a person is willing to recognize them herself.

9. If your intentions are wrong.

Let’s say your wife is constantly knocking you down, nagging at you, telling you to lose 20 pounds because she didn’t intend to marry a beached whale. The natural, or at least easy, thing to do is to find an attractive woman who will feed your ego and tell you that you’re sexy, funny, smart, and so on. Some folks may unconsciously seek out an admirer to get their spouse to take notice of them. It can be effective! But it’s also manipulative. There are healthier ways to increase your self-esteem and regain the power that you have lost in your own home.

Singapore student wanted sex in return for 'helping models'

He promised to help them remove their nude photos from the Internet. But they, in return, had to become his sex partners.

Polytechnic student Winfred Quek Xiu Zhi, then 19, had made this "indecent proposal" to two models whose nude photographs he found on a website and even threatened one of them.

Yesterday, Quek, now 21, was sentenced to 10 weeks' jail for criminal intimidation. The court heard that in 2013, Quek messaged one of the models, also 19, telling her that he could help her remove the photos from the website if she were to be his sex partner.

When the girl ignored him, he contacted the second model, a 20-year-old freelancer. Around August 2013, calling himself "Justin", Quek called her and claimed he would help remove her photos, and that he had them.

The next day, he lied to her that he had paid $6,000 for her photos to be removed from the Sammyboy website and wanted her to provide sex to him for free. She initially agreed but changed her mind.

On Jan 5 last year, while exchanging messages, Quek badgered the victim and urged her to "limit the damage" caused by her nude photos being "leaked" on the front page of the website.

He also lied that he had spent thousands of dollars to remove them. In return, he expected her to provide sex to him. He accused her of reneging on her offer and asked whether it would be "good" if her boyfriend saw her nude photos. But she said she did not care.

Quek gave her "one last chance". When she did not reply, he wished her luck and told her: "You will one day remember your stupidity."

Yesterday, District Judge Lim Keng Yeow said this case clearly did not involve just an idle threat. The threat was one of trading the victim's nude photographs publicly or of making them available publicly if his demands were not met.

"(Quek) gave every impression that he had the capability, the motivation and the readiness to carry out his threat so as to strengthen the force of his demands," he said.

He said there was clearly a measure of calculation, deception and premeditation in how the offender went about trying to get the victim to surrender to his demands.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Marshall Lim had earlier objected to probation, which the defence had asked for. He said that this was not the work of a naive or immature individual. Quek, who could have been jailed for up to two years and fined, is appealing. Bail of $15,000 is allowed.

Mother Slaps Boy Who Knocked Into Her Son At School

A pupil accidentally knocked into his classmate on Tuesday (July 21).

It should have been a small incident quickly sorted out between kids. But it turned into something bigger when a parent decided to take matters into her own hands.

The incident is believed to have happened at a primary school in the Bishan area.

The friend of the pupil's mother, Madam Huang, described to Lianhe Wanbao the series of events she says took place after the initial knock.

According to her, the mother of the classmate found out about the incident while dropping her son off at school the next day.

The angry parent then slapped a boy – whom she thought was responsible – in front of his classmates, said Madam Huang.

When she found out she had hit the wrong boy, she continued to look for the real "perpetrator", and slapped that boy as well.

Madam Huang​ claimed the woman told the boy: "This is how it feels like to be slapped."

Shocked, upset

The two boys who were slapped were shocked and upset, said Madam Huang.

Lianhe Wanbao understands that the school arranged for the parents of all three boys to meet on Friday (July 24) and that the woman apologised for her actions.

But the parents of the two boys who were slapped made a police report later that day as they felt the apology was insincere and that the woman's story did not match-up with other details of the incident.

Police confirmed that a police report had been made.

Girl, 17, Raped Twice Because Of Police Error

The police in the western Indian state of Maharashtra have admitted that a 17-year-old rape survivor in Jalna town was raped again.

The reason: The police had sent her as bait to catch the suspects, Indian television station NDTV reported.

The police officers who sent the girl back to her alleged rapists are being investigated.

The teenager was allegedly raped at knife-point the first time early this month when she met a male friend she had got to know on Facebook.

Other news reports said two men had accosted the girl and her friend and dragged the girl to a forest before raping her.

They also took her mobile phone and shot the video of the act.

When the girl got home, she told her mother, who lodged a police complaint.

The next day the police, in an attempt to lay a trap, sent the girl back to the same spot.

It "failed" as police vehicles were following too closely, said Vishwas Patil, Inspector General of Police, Aurangabad district.

TRAP

A day later, the police made a second attempt to trap the rapists, but a "miscommunication" meant that the girl was assaulted again.

Said IGP Patil: "The girl was put through the injustice again.

"It is wrong to use a victim, especially a minor victim, as bait."

Police officers involved in the operation say the teen left to meet the accused without informing them and apparently thought that a police vehicle was following her.

The alleged rapists were arrested hours later from a railway station. The police claimed they had received a tip-off.

Mr Vinod Ejjapwar, the police officer who allegedly led the operation to use the rape survivor as bait, has been suspended.

Police sources said preliminary medical reports have failed to establish the first rape.

I Think A Ghost Is Having Sex With Me.

I am a 48 year old female. I believe I have recently become aware of two spirits that I now believe have been with me since I was a little girl. I feel like I'm going crazy. It's as if I'm suddenly talking to myself and imagining things. Can anyone help me with this? Tell me if it seems real or what... Please!

A couple of months ago I started waking up several times during the night. Every time I would fall asleep, I would wake up with this adrenaline rush feeling in my gut and my groin area would be dripping wet sweaty. 

I thought something was really wrong with me (some kind of illness or something). It didn't seem like hot flashes because only my groin area was sweaty. If I lay awake all night it wouldn't happen. It only happens when I fall asleep. I almost didn't want to fall asleep because I knew I would wake up all sweaty with a racing heart (like a panic attack).

After several weeks of this, one night I woke up in this condition. However, this time, I was somehow aware that what had happened to me was that a spirit presence was somehow involved with me sexually. I was very sexually aroused and orgasmed.

From that point on, when I'd wake up in that condition, I'd say "Oh, it's you again, then I would feel unbelievable sexual energy and would offer myself to him, and it was an awesome experience.

In my mind's eye, I soon began seeing translucent images of him. He is not a man. He is some greenish lizard dinosaur type creature. He is not mean or scary. All he wants is to arouse me and play together sexually. It is as if he wants to transfer sexual energy to me.

Now, out of the clear blue, I will walk in my bedroom and suddenly I will feel a very strong sexual energy come over my groin area and will be aware of his presence. I'll talk to him and start to offer myself to him, and I feel such unbelievable sexual energy pleasure.

He does not talk to me. I think he is purely energy. All there is between us is sharing of intense sexual energy and lust.

Now, a female spirit has come into the picture, and she talks to me. She told me the male was only here to have sex and pleasure with me, but she was here to direct me, and use me for her benefit. 

All of this seems to be imagination or talking to myself. Yet, the sweating, the energy, and the feeling of his presence seem so extremely real.

Please help me if you know whats going on with me.

E-cigg To Be Banned

SINGAPORE: From Dec 15 this year, Singapore will ban emerging tobacco products – those which are currently not available in Singapore, and also existing products in the local market, the Ministry of Health announced on Monday (Jun 15).

The ban is a “pre-emptive measure to protect public health against the known and potential harms of such products,” the ministry said in a news release. It added that the ban will be implemented in two phases.

The first phase of the ban will take effect from Dec 15 this year and it will cover products that are currently not available in Singapore. The banned products include:

• Smokeless cigars, smokeless cigarillos or smokeless cigarettes
• Dissolvable tobacco or nicotine
• Any product containing nicotine or tobacco that may be used topically for application, by implant or injected into any parts of the body
• Any solution or substance, of which tobacco or nicotine is a constituent, that is intended to be used with an electronic nicotine delivery system or a vaporiser (also referred to as e-cigarettes)

The second phase of the ban, which takes effect from Aug 1, 2016, will cover existing products in the local market. The products are:

• Nasal snuff
• Oral snuff
• Gutkha, khaini and zarda 

The ban on existing products in the local market will take place later, so that businesses will be allowed to adjust their operating models and deplete their existing stock, said MOH.
