“ The Appellate Division, First Judicial Department of the New York State Supreme Court has granted a stay of enforcement on the $464 million judgment on former President Donald Trump with conditions, allowing the Trump Organization to avert having assets imminently seized by the New York Attorney General.

The order came after defense attorneys argued a $464 million bond was impossible after having contracted four brokers to negotiate with more than 30 companies. Sureties don’t issue bonds that big for private individuals, and even if the Trump Organization was a public conglomerate they could issue such a bond to, it would require some $570 million in cash to cover additional premiums.

The court’s conditions for lowering the bond include President Trump posting $175 million within 10 days and the other orders on the judgment going into effect.

The judgment permanently bars former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg and comptroller Jeffrey McConney from serving in financial control of any New York business entity; permanently bars President Trump, Mr. Wesselberg, and Mr. McConney from serving as an officer or director of any New York corporation for three years; bars President Trump from applying for loans for New York financial institutions for three years; and bars Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump from serving as an officer or director in New York for two years.

There was no stay requested for the continuance of an independent monitor overseeing financial matters in the Trump Organization or the installation of a compliance officer, and that will continue.

The stay is conditioned on the appeals being done by September 2024.

Surely, the Pope has got it wrong here. He is sending out a message to any country that is under attack to give up fighting back for their rights to resist an invader, and negotiate terms of peace. The perpetrator of any invasion would then be boosted by this advice and have added incentive to continue an illegal war. This statement by an authority such as the Pope could have a demoralising effect on the non offending country.

The management team of Brian Wilson has petitioned to place him in a conservatorship because of his mental decline and the recent death of his wife, Melinda Ledbetter Wilson, who managed his daily life.

The 81-year-old Beach Boys co-founder and mastermind has a “major neurocognitive disorder” and is taking medication for dementia, according to a doctor’s declaration filed with the petition Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court.

It was a beautiful warm spring day. I decided to go for a walk in the woods.
Enjoying the beauty of a lovely day, I suddenly realized that I could hear no sounds. No cars, no airplans, no birds.
Something was wrong!
Suddenly I hear the roar of a lion!
A Lion ! Is there a zoo near here? No! Is there a circus nearby? I could not remember if I had read about one, but a lion can walk many kilometers a day. Why has there been no warning? The lion showed no interest in me and continued walking parallel to me about 10 meters away. My lucky day, The lion is not hungry. The silence was unbearable, so strange, then suddenly there was a strange roaring sound coming from the south, like thunder and lightening altogether.
The noise came nearer, it was not an ordinary storm, a hurricane? I should not be in these woods during a hurricane. A big branch falls down from the tree near me. If I stay here I am sure to be a nice easy meal for that lion. I have one option, get into the open. I ran, although I did not know where I was going, I thought, the lion may know, and I followed his path. 5 minutes later, I saw the wide opening with green like grass. It was a large opening and not one tree.
I lay down and did not look up, afraid to get something into my eyes.
My eyes are closed and I am lying on the ground. Suddenly I hear very heavy feet stampeding near me. I open my eyes and see the under foot of an elephant. I was right, circus animals are free, probably it happened because of the hurricane,
I look to see where is the elephant running to? Animals have a 7th sense to save themselves.
I see at to end of the opening a building? It is silver metal with small windows along all the length. More like an airplane than a building.

I decide to run into this silver metal thing. The opening is very large and has a low ramp. I look inside and see many animals. Several Lamas, sheep, goats and also the elephant.
It reminded me of Noah's ark, only the animals were not in pairs. On one side there were several people including some children. I went to sit on the ground next to them,
No one spoke, even the animals were quiet.
I sat there for hours and, fell asleep.
When I woke up, most of the animals were no longer inside and all people had left.
The sun is beaming into the vehicle. Only a few sheep and goats were still inside.
As there was no hurricane now, I decide to leave too,
Leaving by the ramp I saw that the place was a different place to where I went into the vehicle. The sky was blue, the sun was shining and exotic plantation caught my eyes.
I could hear water from the distance and decided to go an have a look.
There were pathways in all directions, so I used one of these paths so as not to tread on the beautiful exotic plants.
The sound of water was coming from a waterfall, Below I could see the water, shining in the sun. In the water I saw crocodiles, and ducks swimming on the water, a giraffe was drinking at the edge,
Now nothing more surprised me, nothing made sense. The animals you never would see in the same place all seemed happy to be near each other.
I continued walking the path, the vegetation was lush and so many exotic plants were flowering, it was like in a botany garden.
Everything was like in slow motion, like everyone had all the time in the world. The feeling was calm, warm, happy, content.
Am I dreaming? I pinch myself, no, I am awake! I decide to go back to the metallic silver vehicle.
I walk back, 2-3 people are sitting inside, I sit, getting sleepy.

A woman speaks: Awake! I will call the doctor!
The doctor comes into the room. He says: You were in a coma for 5 days, we had to revive you twice, once it took quite a long time.

Now I understand where I had been. I had a quick look into my future.

Later, looking at the news on the room TV I saw that there was a circus accident and that an elephant and one lion were killed. The circus was far away in a different country.

Is Jon Bon Jovi quitting music? Rock star’s heartbreaking admission after vocal surgery

April 20th is a 'sorta' celebration day for many who smoke weed. Taking a toke at 4:20 on 4/20 is a ritual that got started long ago... I think it was a meeting time after school for some teenage kids that caught on. Every day at 4:20 ritual.

I worked for a guy who in the interview asked if I was 420 friendly. I responded with "Huh?"
He said "Do you burn?" (by then I was catching on to his questioning) "burn what?" was my reply.

Upon Your lips sweet bliss awaits speak with fire now wild one!

I got the worst valentine's gift ever, my Giant said.

And that's simply because I gave him Durian..
I told him sooner or later
he has gotta try tasting it.

I don't think I am skinny, but I have no clue
why others still say the opposite.

Anyway..
I love you, Four!
Thank you for being my Divergent Man.
Hope you enjoyed the Val Day.

I think USA will survive the unceasing destructive horror of, among many things, moral fiber, families and higher education decay. Speaking about education, we need to bring back passing standards. I want the best educated and most skilled people available to do everything and get due credit for it.

We need qualified people designing buildings, protecting our border, flying aircraft, in law enforcement, as lawyers, as judges, performing medical procedures (including abortions!) farming our food, inspecting our meat etc etc. We need to stop climate change nonsense and the insane inflamed racism and division perpetrate on us. Let’s make America and Britain great again!
