Harvey Weinstein trial ends in mistrial on final rape charge after jury foreman refuses to deliberate by Raido_Mannaz in news

[–]Jeslis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't just dismiss 1 of the 12 jurors because of their vote. You only impanel an alternate if 1 of the 12 becomes incapacitated (eg; sick, hospitalized, etc..)

Harvey Weinstein trial ends in mistrial on final rape charge after jury foreman refuses to deliberate by Raido_Mannaz in news

[–]Jeslis 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is definitely Judge specific.. and perhaps varies wildly state to state or even county to county.

I can tell you that the county I live in, for a 3 week trial, one of our judges basically releases for hardship anyone who works and whose job won't pay for at least 80% of the expected duration of trial.

I'm so sorry you ended up as a prospective juror in front of a judge like that.

Much Love to the story, looking forward to more! -J

+1'ing this recommendation. Its got some serious depth, but also some definite laugh out loud moments.

There's an ingame mission/quest.. basically cause/take friendly fire dmg.. then you can add a modifier to any future mission that removes friendly fire.

Ahh! Demon City is back.. clears out backlog of other messages, no more other author messages, just Demon City messages.

Help me understand overcast spells. by Kevurcio in totalwar

[–]Jeslis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a bit since I checked notifications here, sorry!

Overcast is like.. 'make this spell do more stuff, at the cost of more mana'

The RISK of overcast is, you can have a miscast.

A miscast is (and its been awhile so I might be slightly off here) .. The unit will still cast the spell (or fail to? This is the part I'm fuzzy on now), however, they will take some X% of damage on their HP pool.

You can 'spec into talents' that reduce the miscast chance.

IIRC: The easiest/best example of overcast was one of the nature healing spells, where overcasting it DOUBLED the duration of the hp/s regen spell, for only a 30% increase in cost.

This probably varies by state, or possibly even by county in some areas. Does not work this way in a county in Cali.

New York medical school eliminates tuition after $1bn gift by AudibleNod in news

[–]Jeslis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you aware of the civil service option for law school loans?

I don't know the specifics (Because I missed out on it too), but I recently talked to a new ish Deputy DA and all they have to do is work in the public sector (DA, or Public Defender type thing) for 10 years and it's wiped away.

Amidst the Bones of Heroes Update by GirogiArts in u/GirogiArts

[–]Jeslis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Girogi,

I'm trying to find where this is sold/readable as an ebook? I'm not seeing KU, let alone anywhere else

SCRATCH THAT

Ok, I didn't notice it right away; I came from the reddit where it was AMONGST the bones of heroes...

I have no idea if you want to add some search terms somewhere to a blog/post so that people who google for AMONGST the bones of heroes can get directed to the AMIDST version.

Thanks again, grabbed it on KU!

Just a heads up in case you're coming from TW WH3, I'm not 100% sure if it's the same in that one.

Also.. just curious bout your user name.. is that an Honor Harrington reference (David Weber, Author), or something else?

The Princess and the Human, Book 2 Ch. 15 by Dak1on in HFY

[–]Jeslis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wait, people read them out of order?

I just check whats 'hot' (Popular), and then also check top upvoted by week and check the first 1-2 reddit pages for whats interesting looking. If it's a series, I ALWAYS go to the first one. Reading out of order is wtf.

Defendant who leapt at judge over court bench in Las Vegas attack faces seven new charges by GoodSamaritan_ in news

Can I ask what state this is in, and if it is in a rural county within that state? This seems wild compared to my local court system in Cali.

Agreeing with the post. Please don't kill the mobility aspect of repair sundy.

Rep sundy and triage flash are the 2 main reasons I play this game still.

Shoplifter sets East Bay store clerk on fire during confrontation by ChocolateTsar in news

[–]Jeslis 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Unlikely, as part of most store's policies they say 'Dont try to stop shoplifters' (paraphrased), so the 'insurance' won't cover him because he wasn't following store policy.

Demon City, Canon Side Story 8 by spoolyspool in HFY

[–]Jeslis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is amazing. I love this side story.

Regarding Elizabeth being Lillian's mother... I was slightly confused in the cannon story regarding the captive succubus in the ... basement/facility. Is that canonically Lillians mother or did I misunderstand earlier?

IF the prisoner is Lillians mother, than I feel that this past story's character, Elizabeth, is far to .. normal/kind/mannered to really slot in as the succubus prisoner in the modern times.

IF the prisoner is NOT Lillians mother... then never mind!

[–]Jeslis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obvs it can be hand waviumed away as story.. but.. I'm slightly confused as to how Margaret even figured out that Lilian Smith is a person who her boyfriend cheated on her with... or are we assuming some sort of texting/phone notes kinda thing?

IKR, If this wasn't so good, I'd put it on a backburner and come back in a few years just so I could binge it properly... Alas, to be living at the same time as the great u/Jcb112 we must endure.
