have we discussed this? Autistic boy tazed by police in California -- (link*) - groiny Jul 19, 09:15 11
- They're trying to avoid the charges. -- nm - Roger More Jul 19, 09:23 4
  - Attorney: "There's no reason that a routine traffic stop..." OK stop right there. It stops being routine when cops start getting beat on. -- nm - ÜMLaut Jul 19, 09:24 2
    - I'm not arguing the police response was inappropriate in the circs (because, who knows?) - Roger More Jul 19, 09:34
    - with everything going on today, she should be thrilled he did not get shot. -- nm - groiny Jul 19, 09:29
  - oh, I think it is more than just that. - groiny Jul 19, 09:24
- the fact that he was physically assaulting the cop at the time... - ÜMLaut Jul 19, 09:18 5
  - surely, this is just an attempt to get $ from the cops. -- nm - groiny Jul 19, 09:23

confused by pokemon, you can evolve and power up the pokemon things? isnt that the same thing? -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 19, 09:13 3
- evolve changes type (and thus stats, etc). power up increases CP within the max set by your level and the type -- nm - oblique Jul 19, 09:27
- nope. evolve transforms from one type to another. power up makes existing type more powerful -- nm - decline Jul 19, 09:18 1
  - And evolving provides XP (thus the lucky egg trick). Not sure that powering up does. -- nm - ty97 Jul 19, 09:19

- Yeah, I think this is attempt #3 to get money for some of these guys - Will Hunting Jul 19, 09:12 1
  - that is my trouble. Most worked the Indy circuit and other places before and after the WWE. Hard to pinpoint how they are solely responsible -- nm - Beaker Jul 19, 09:13
- Ok, seriously? These dudes throw themselves off of cages onto tables... - Jim Jul 19, 09:11 1
  - If the WWE was forcing them to do so; or not being honest with their health....sure. - Will Hunting Jul 19, 09:12

    - people are weird. Pizza is a standard office meeting food. -- nm - Epiphany Jul 19, 09:21 1
      - your post is 7 words too long. - Diva Jul 19, 09:22

Sources: Megyn Kelly Told Murdoch Investigators That Roger Ailes Sexually Harassed Her; Fox gave Ailes a deadline of August 1st to resign -- (link) - ty97 Jul 19, 09:05 8
- Although I have no reason to disbelieve her, they've been longtime adversaries in that Ailes-Murdoch power struggle - gerald Jul 19, 09:11 3
  - Maybe the harassment is why she was on the other side. -- nm - jnine Jul 19, 09:13 2
    - She may have always planned to do bigger things than Fox, and didn't want to be tainted as a right-wing Ailes hack for life - gerald Jul 19, 09:17 1
      - I saw that live. One of my favorite tv moments. Karl wouldn't give an inch. He was Trumpian. -- nm - jnine Jul 19, 09:33
- "Ailes has also received advice on strategy from Donald Trump and Rudy Guiliani, sources say." - ty97 Jul 19, 09:05 3
  - That was advice on how to committ the harassment. -- nm - jnine Jul 19, 09:11 2
    - "If you look at it right, the 9 kinda looks like a <censored> and since you have 2 1's there...you can guess where we can put those..." - Will Hunting Jul 19, 09:13
    - L3 -- nm - Diva Jul 19, 09:12

znu, does it have to be a pivot? Could you just use filters instead? -- nm - spamlet Jul 19, 08:57 2
