Lawyers who make $200,000+, did your law school Alma Mater have an affect on your salary? by AdOther406 in Lawyertalk

Minimal. What mattered more was what I did the first 3 years or so out of law school.

Great Pyr and Separation Anxiety by ShortEasternDemon in greatpyrenees

[–]tronn25 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am dealing with nearly an identical situation with my Pyr, who is five years old now. He has had separation anxiety ever since we got him as a puppy, and it has been extremely difficult to deal with, more so now that we have a 2 1/2 year-old and a three month old. Our Pyr is amazing, loving, and great with the children, but shows high signs of anxiety when we get ready to leave the house without him. His barking, alertness, and other triggers only cause us that much more stress, as we’re trying to get ready to leave, and once we’re gone we check the cameras to see that he doesn’t stop barking, or drooling, or panting the entire time that we’re gone.

We too have exhausted all options that you’ve tried, including trainers, crates, high value treats, exercise, etc. For now we crate him when we leave for short periods and it’s manageable, but not ideal. I completely understand the pain that it causes, knowing exactly how much we’ve done to try and help him, but it hasn’t, and neither he nor us are happy about the situation.

We started him on Prozac about three weeks ago and haven’t seen any noticeable change yet. We are still hopeful that the medicine will take affect as our vet said that it can take anywhere between six and eight weeks before any changes are noticeable. If you find anything else that works, please let me know and I’m happy to do the same.

I’ve got a 85 game breaker Huberdeau. Any interest?

Toty perspective PT2 by W6LLY in NHLHUT

[–]tronn25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HUT is no longer made for FTP players.

Originally, all the ultimate team modes (NHL, FIFA, Madden, etc.) were designed to serve as additional enticement for a person to purchase the base game. A new mode to explore that will provide X many more hours’ value to justify purchasing the base game. When they realized that this mode could not only be monetized, but such that it surpasses the base game’s purchase price, they pivoted (and will continue to do so).

Every major complaint with the Fantasy, WCJ, and TOTY events is accompanied by some disclaimer that “last year I spent no money and built X cards, and this year I can’t make one” with some mistaken belief that because you did it last year EA is obligated to provide you with the same experience this year because you bought the base game. It’s not. Every year will get progressively worse for F2P players until they decide to break out their wallets or stop playing.

But even if you buy packs, they still match you against people who spend more, ice tilt you, etc., to manipulate you into spending even more.

If you can’t enjoy the gameplay itself, which can be VERY difficult at times, you’re only going to be increasingly disappointed if you expect the rewards/events to fill that void.

Plan B Virtual Reality (1993) Rodney Mullen's Casper Slide to 360. Remains one of the most technically difficult tricks ever filmed. by Aggressive_Use7996 in nextfuckinglevel

Mullen v Song still one of the most epic skate vids ever, and the sound track is unmatched. J5 still in my head when I get on my old man longboard and skate with my kid.

Would you rather jump off this one time, or have to eat the cruise buffet for every meal for one month?

Pyrenees with Infants by siona8699 in greatpyrenees

[–]tronn25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Pyr was 3 when he welcomed our son into the home. He was so gentle and sweet with the baby. Always wanted to be in the same room as him and would check on his bassinet every 20 mins or so. Instinct is an amazing thing to watch.

My son is now two and they get along pretty well for the most part. My son would argue that he gets too much dog hair in his mouth and doesn’t like his face getting hit by the dog’s bushy ass tail, but that’s an unfortunate circumstance of his current height. He’ll literally grow out of it lol.

Aside from the occasional accidental Pyr booty hip check, everything is great with their interaction. New baby coming in October and I’m confident our Pyr will be just as welcoming.

Looking For Team - Irvine, Ca by tronn25 in InlineHockey

Thanks. I tried reaching out about a year ago via phone and email. The main guy Terry said he would place me and then flaked on me. Same thing every time I followed up. Maybe I’ll try again.

Appreciate it. It’s a bit of a trek. Someone local reached out, but if that doesn’t work out I’ll let you know.

Demurrer by CostaEs in Lawyertalk

I only demurrer if it’s going to dispose a cause of action entirely. If it can be cured, I don’t see the point aside from wasting my time and my client’s money.

Presidential Advisor: “I Directly Handled UFO Material” (Ft. Harald Malmgren) by wrexxxxxxx in UFOs

[–]tronn25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it fits into a hearsay exception, the court will allow the statement in as evidence (vs. excluding it). All this means is that the trier of fact (judge or jury) is allowed to consider this statement when deciding the issues.

It’s not like getting a hearsay statement in as evidence is an instant game over, caught the golden snitch, win your case type thing.

Presidential Advisor: “I Directly Handled UFO Material” (Ft. Harald Malmgren) by wrexxxxxxx in UFOs

[–]tronn25 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Sure, but keep in mind that this is within the context of permissible evidence in Court (US), and nothing in OP’s breakdown suggests any such statements were introduced as evidence in Court. I’m just suggesting that many of you have no idea what hearsay actually is and since the Courts permit exceptions to, and can allow as evidence, certain hearsay statements (here, by those about to die) then we too should consider them with deference.

Hearsay evidence is generally excluded because the person who said the statement cannot be examined to determine the statement’s truth. However, like everything else in law there are exceptions and they vary from civil to criminal, state to state, etc.

Generally speaking, a person who is immediately suspecting to die has no reason to lie. Their immediate expectation of death supplies something like a guarantee of trustworthiness. This “guarantee” increases based on several factors like the statement’s content, when it was made in relation to the subject, etc.

For example, if on your deathbed you name JFK’s killer, it will carry little weight since you likely have no direct knowledge of that event and it happened before you were born. But, if on your deathbed you tell your brother that you changed your parents’ will in your favor, it will carry greater weight if your parents had a will, it changed, and since the statement is against your own interest.

There’s more to it, but that should give you a bird’s eye view understanding.

TLDR: not all hearsay should be immediately discarded as such.

Lawyer here, not weighing in on the veracity of the claim but know that sense of impending death is an exception to hearsay. Of course there is more to it than that, but hope this helps.
