I've been reading here and there that the judge in the Manafort trial is showing bias towards defending Manafort...is this true? Is he going to get off scot-free and set a horrible precedent for the rest of the Mueller stuff?

The context since those initial tweets about it has shown that the judge was mostly just pressing the prosecution to make their point about how the transactions were made.

The judge is an old school ballbuster that insists the prosecution tries absolutely no funny business and sticks to their case. Basically this is the best option in the event the special council tries and pull a Bundy - i.e. goes for the flashy dunk and misses it when they could've done a layup and made it.

Yeah, the judge had even pulled this type of thing before, basically he's trying to keep things chugging along fast in his courtroom, but I'm hoping the prosecution wasn't using the wild opulence as an argument that Manafort spent $15k on an ostrich leather slav tuxedo because $15k is pocket change and he had several times the amount of income reported.

There's probably a sliding scale on how in shape you have to be to stand in body armor under whatever temperature.

110-115 degrees with full battle rattle? Yeah that's easy enough (*cough loving kill me*) when you're in the best shape of your life and practically carved out of wood.

One time when I was in ROTC, I was at Ft.Knox doing land nav exercises or some poo poo. Anyways, they pair us up with this e5 reservist to lead my fireteam of cadets around the woods for that days course. Anyways, this dude keeps bragging about how he does UFC and he's ripped, but we're going too fast for him and that we need to slow down or else we'll get heatstroke. Also not to drink water too much or we'll cramp up. We then hit our second AP that was next to an aid station and some water buffaloes, so he tells us to go refill our canteens and to wait for him.

We wait about five minutes and then turn around to see him getting wrapped in a wet ice towel and getting an IV of fluids, so he's obviously done for the day. Then this portly reservist major comes over and tells us he'll take over with his for the rest of the day. Despite the guys size, he was able to scramble around the woods no problem because he actually drank water instead of bragging how he's in super shape and don't need no hydration breaks. Also the other fun part of that event was hearing over the radios the constant calls for medics and what not because cadets kept loving dropping from heat stroke or twisting their ankles and poo poo. We came in second out of 65 fireteams or whatever, so that was cool.


Welp, that's my dumb story about hydrating when it's loving hot out. Thanks for reading. :tipshat:

There's different standards for what constitutes a specific generation.

It's best to think of them as "what major events / time periods were the defining period of their early adulthood"

Lost Generation = WW1
Greatest Generation = WW2
Silent Generation = Post-WW2/Early Cold War
Boomers = Vietnam
Generation X = Reagan
Generation Y / MILLENNIALS = Post-Desert Storm, 9/11, GWOT
Generation Z / "Digital Natives" = GWOT, Great Recession

Gen 13 = Fairchild.

Hyponatremia due to severe dillution of your vascular system dropping your sodium level to less than normal variations.

It's actually a pretty dangerous condition that can lead to death, and requires a slow process of returning the sodium level to normal values or you run the risk of osmotic dymelination syndrome.
