Foreign AffairsRe: Judge Orders Trump To Pay $364 Million, Strips Business Licenses by linearity: 5:36pm On Mar 08, 2024
dinachi:
Infact, Trump can even seek justice on the basis of mistrial. You can see that this is a very punitive judgement. Evil people who do not know how else to stop him from winning the elections are deploying everything in their arsenal to destroy him because they know what will happen when he wins. As for appeal, yes, he can and will appeal. All those jargon about paying a hefty bond of 540 mil before he can appeal is nonsense. If doesn't happen anywhere in the world. The whole idea is to damage his image.

RomanceRe: Long Distance Relationship; Should I Be Worried? by linearity:
BeautifulSolace:
I've been dating my boyfriend since 2021, and he's a good person whom I trust because he doesn't hide anything from me. Last year, he traveled to Lagos, creating a long-distance relationship. Despite not having evidence of cheating and maintaining strong communication, I often worry that all men can't stay without sex.

Should I be worried?"
Since you often worry that no man can stay without sex and you also know that even in a committed husband and wife scenario even while living under the same roof, the man or woman must engage in long distance travel a few times each year, why get into relationships with men, a demography that you have already concluded would cheat?

I would think you would look for another specie that would not cheat on you?

Now if you have made up your mind that you must associate with men despite your perceived negative disposition towards them when it come to infidelity, why lose sleep over what you have concluded is a ubiquitous defect among them?

You can’t eat you cake and then complain about it.

Good people always appreciate good things irrespective of who it happens to.

Approach him and tell him of your dilemma and he will even chastise you for even deliberating the obvious. He will be the one to encourage you to take the other job.

But don’t tamper with the relationship, there are things you would learn in the Island job that you can use to benefit him and his company.

My only problem is, you did not give him enough notice seeing how good he was to you, not even two weeks.
RomanceRe: Doctors In The House I Need Your Help!!!! by linearity: 2:24am On Mar 04, 2024
It is very unlikely you are responsible.

Ovulation aka the release of an egg to be fertilized happens 12-14 days before one start seeing her period if the released egg was not fertilized.

If her period was supposed to start on Feb 14th, it means the egg must have been released between Feb 1st and Feb 3rd.

If a released egg is not fertilized within 24 hrs it disintegrates and along with the prep site on the uterus leading to menstrual flow.

If you had sex with her on the 7th of Feb, she is safe at that period and it would not result into pregnancy.

However, if she have an irregular period or during that month both ovaries instead of one released an egg, or her calculations and timing she told you are off or she have a delayed ovulation that cycle due to medications, depression, etc, then there is the possibility that you may be responsible but remember that this possibility is low like 20%.

Remember that the fact that the chance of something happening being 20% does not mean that it could not happen at all, it simply means that in more cases it likely may not happened.

A possible scenario is that, she had sex with someone else around her ovulation and she doesn’t want that person to be the father and for some reasons you are her favorite to be called her baby father.

If I were you I would not take responsibility yet, if you have any long term plans with this individual, I will slow walk those plans until a DNA test proofs that I am the father.

I don’t know why you think that your Dad has no say or why are you not involving him?

Yes, it is important you get the consent of both parents, but if both parent are not in agreement, you have fulfilled your part if you go with your father’s inclination if they align with yours.

I say father because, it is truly the father that is recognized both traditionally and in Church wedding to give their daughters out in marriage, mothers play a more background role that can be substituted.

Your traditional wedding, bride price, etc would be done according to the tradition and custom of where your father comes from. I have seen traditional weddings where the mother side refused to show up despite them having a role to play….in one occasion that I witnessed, the people from the town marriage committee asked the father to nominate a lady there to play the role of the mother and he did that and the show continues…

If she dragged this and refuses to go along, your father can even nominate someone to represent your mother before the D-day, that person would collect her gift, play their role and take the gift to them at home the occasion, it is up to her what she does with them.

During your Church wedding, it is your father that would walk you down the aisle and not your mother. When the Priest or Pastor publicly announce in Church that…..who gave this lady out for marriage (as some Churches do), it is your father that would respond.

So in marriage from Africa stand point, it is the father or the person playing the role of the father that is most important if we truly come to it….hence I was wondering where your father is in this whole picture when he have an oversize role to play.
HealthRe: How Do I Travel With Antiretroviral Drugs For My Brother by linearity: 2:22pm On Feb 29, 2024

Dear Nairalanders,

My younger brother was diagnosed with HIV when he applied for a stidy visa to canda. Fortunately, he was granted the visa. However he is yet to get health insurance in Canada. I intend traveling there soon and they are asking that I come with his drugs.

Please advise. Can I travel with ARV drugs on his behalf? Are there risks associated?

Please help.
You are not allowed to carry a prescription drug on board a plane for someone else.

But, you are totally fine if the prescriptions are in your name and the name on the prescription or Doctor’s note matches the name on your traveling documents.

Most licensed Pharmacists or Doctors in Nigeria would understand your situation and put the prescription or letter following the drugs in your name.

At least it is better than Naira!

If two friends with N100,000.00 each in their Nigeria savings accounts at the start of 2020 just to save it against raining days.

One January 2,2020; one of them heard of USDT and promptly converts all their money into USDT and the other left theirs ‘as is’.

Who would be better off by now? I am confident that, if a fraction of that USDT is converted back to Naira, there will be more than N100,000 to match the original savings that his friend still have in the bank and more USDT left sitting idle but growing daily almost risk free against the Naira.

Crypto provides the same benefits as your local bank and more.

Additionally, it is more secure than your local bank, it is not as limited to geographical boundaries as your local bank, it is like a world wide common currency.

The benefits and uses are endless, you can use it to do anything you use money to do but on a global scale.

What do you mean that he can seek justice on the basis of a mistrial, you don’t know what you are talking about, there was no mistrial.

Yes the judgement are punitive, Punitive judgements and fines are common place in the USA. They are there to discourage a repeat offense.

For the New York case, Trump is required by law to make payments immediately or post a bond, if he does not, collection on the judgment become automatic and immediately and he can not delay this because he wants to appeal.

For the Sexual assault case where $85 million was awarded against him, the rules are a little bit different because that is a Federal Case, in that case if he does not pay or provide a bond, Ms. Carroll file a judgment lien against him before payments become effective immediately. He have a little flexibility here, because he can try to negotiate with Carroll so they can have some kind of agreement so to prevent her from filing a judgment lien against him.

The guy is in serious financial strait at the moment.

Not until it gets to Appeal and Supreme Court, they ain't getting a dime from Trump.

/
Not totally true!

Before he can appeal, he must either pay the full amount to the Court for safe keeping in case he lost his appeal or bond the whole amount.

From past experience, Trump will bond the amount and then appeal the case.

The bond work in some ways similar to insurance, Trump would approach a bond company and put down eg 10% of the above amount and pledge or deposit collateral or property documents for the remainder to the bonds company.

The bonds company would in turn approach the Court and place in safety the whole amount or if they have a good reputation with the Court, the court can go on their self-recognition.

So in this case Trump must pay about 10% aka $36 million before he can appeal.

Now depending on his agreement with the bonds company, if he wins the appeal, the bond company can return some of that 10% and his documents but if he loses, he must either pay the 90% remaining to the Court or the bond company would auction the asset kept in collateral so as to satisfy the court or the party that won the monetary case.
