BTW, I seem to recall that Milton was arrested at the Phoenix airport, possibly/probably attempting to flee the country.
I hope the authorities have a leash on him and confiscated his passport. A $100 million bond for a billionaire...might be something he can afford to lose.
[NYPOST] A 16-year-old boy was busted at a Queens high school while flashing a firearm to impress his friend, police sources said Friday.
The teen, who has no prior run-ins with the law, was arrested at Epic High School in South Richmond Hill on Thursday afternoon with a Glock-26 in his backpack, the sources said.
School safety agents were alerted to the gun after another student spotted the teen showing off the piece and reported it, sources said.

And here I thought NYC has some of the strictest unconstitutional gun control laws in the land. Oh, wait, that's for law abiding citizens. Never mind.
[NYPOST] A homeless woman who allegedly pickpocketed a dead man was freed on supervised release without bail at her arraignment Friday — as sources said she tried to use the victim’s stolen cash but couldn’t because it was covered in blood.
Geniece Draper, 40 — who was charged with grand and petit larcenies for the morbid crime — stayed mum in court after allegedly snatching the wallet of a man who was crushed by a truck last week.
"This defendant appeared on video taking money out of a dead man’s pocket," a prosecutor said at the arraignment hearing.
As she left Manhattan Criminal Court, Draper told The Post, she was snatching back cash from the dead man, who was also homeless and identified as Jerome Smith, 62.
"He robbed me first," she said. "He got killed after."
Draper said Smith had swiped $120 from her at an ATM, but declined to elaborate.

Arrested? Whatever happened to the “We are a Second Amenment State” comment?
Wonder if the RAB has any leftover TAD funds and needs a bit of ‘refresher training?’

Chain gang them together, drop them off in front of a big mess and then them to load up the debris into a truck by hand. Their sentence is over when the area is clean.

Very anecdotal but...I did a hunting trip in Namibia many moons ago. The professional hunter said the Cape Buffalo was, in his mind, the most dangerous bg game animal. Hardest to bring down and would actually circle behind you or set up a L-shaped ambush.

[OTP] In a major blow to America’s seafood industry, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game has, for the first time in state history, canceled the winter snow crab season in the Bering Sea due to their falling numbers.
While restaurant menus will suffer, scientists worry what the sudden population plunge means for the health of the Arctic ecosystem.
An estimated one billion crabs have mysteriously disappeared in two years, state officials said. It marks a 90% drop in their population.

When Alaska crabbers depleted their normal catch they turned to harvesting the tanner crab, the long legged thing that was previously considered trash. They gave it a new name, snow crab, and sold it to the American public. Now the tanner is disappearing and global warming is being blamed. I wonder???

[NYPOST] An Upstate New York woman was arrested for letting her 10-year-old son get a permanent tattoo, cops said.
Crystal Thomas, 33, allegedly let the youngster get his name in big block letters in a procedure done at a "transient" hotel in the town of Highland, where Thomas and her two children were staying, according to a report.
She was slapped with a charge of endangering the welfare of a child for allowing her son to get "a large permanent ink tattoo on his body," according to local police.
In addition to the charges for Thomas, cops are now on the hunt for the amateur artist who inked up the kid.
The boy got the tattoo from a man unsupervised in a room next door to where Thomas and her kids had been staying for weeks, Lloyd police Chief James Janso told the Daily Mail.
"She wasn’t in the room with him," Janso reportedly said.

So it’s a crime to let him get a tattoo at that age, but castration is fine.

There will not be any valid explanation for this at the Pearly Gates.
It's humorous that there is no discussion of how the muzz feel about this. It's sort of like how fat old white le$bians feminists have no problem with clitorectomy.

I came across some snippet the other day from the Dearborn MI area, some jumbo like, "How to bridge the gap between faith and inclusiveness."
There is a series of cartoons based on, from what I understand, a cartoon which originated (as the story goes) in the Middle East - Crusader and Jihadi knight, standing shoulder to shoulder, facing a horde of leftist icons, saying "Together? Together".
We'll know the rift is bad if they, too, get called terrorists for objecting to the madness.
[Garowe] The Chinese government has fined Kenya $ 10 million for defaulting on repayment of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR).
This comes at a time when Ruto’s administration is struggling with mounting public debt.
The Chinese banks fined Kenya $10.8 million in the year ended June for loan defaults, according to Treasury documents seen by local media.
Kenya had borrowed over half a trillion shillings from Chinese lenders, led by the Export-Import Bank of China, to fund the construction of the SGR from Mombasa to Naivasha.
"This $10.8 million penalty relates to the cost of default on interest at one percent of the due amount," reads documents seen by the media.
Taxpayers have been forced to shoulder the burden of the SGR loans because revenues generated from the passenger and cargo services on the track are not enough to meet the operation costs, which stood at $152.8 million in the year to June against sales of $123.9 million.
SGR posted an operating loss of $28 million, and wired $187.6 million) in loan repayments in the year to June.
Earlier on Kenya had asked for an extension of the debt repayment moratorium from bilateral lenders, including China, by another six months to December 2021.
Chinese banks led by the Exim Bank of China opposed Kenya’s request for a debt repayment holiday in a standoff that delayed disbursements to projects funded by Chinese loans.
This forced the former regime to drop its push for an extension of the debt repayment holiday to avoid straining relations with Kenya’s biggest bilateral creditor.
However the outgoing Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Planning, Ukur Yattani refuted the claim and said the country has not defaulted on its repayment of the loan.
He further claimed that Kenya has good relations with every lender including China and every one of them will be treated equally.
[GulfNews] Rescuers desperately searched for signs of life on Saturday after a methane blast at a coal mine in northern The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor... killed at least 25 people and trapped dozens of others hundreds of metres underground.
Updating the corpse count, Health Minister Fahrettin Koca also tweeted that 11 others pulled out alive were being treated in hospital after one of Turkey's deadliest industrial accidents in years struck Friday at sunset.
"We are facing a truly regretful situation," Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu told news hounds earlier after urgently flying to the small coal mining town of Amasra on Turkey's Black Sea coast.
"In all, 110 of our brothers were working (underground). Some of them came out on their own, and some of them were rescued."
Soyli also confirmed early reports that nearly 50 miners remained trapped in two separate areas between 300 and 350 metres (985 to 1,150 feet) below ground.
Television images showed anxious crowds - some with tears in their eyes - congregating around a damaged white building near the entrance to the pit in search of news for their friends and loved ones.
Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him.

That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important... said he would cancel all his other arrangements and fly to the scene of the accident on Saturday.

Walnut Hills High School is the college prep magnet of the Cincinnati public school system, I Have Sind. It’s been academically rigorous across the board for three to four generations that I’m aware of.
And nearby Miami [Ohio] University is the headquarters of the National Junior Classical League, which provided the trailing daughters many happy hours and a number of costume and exam prizes when they were schoolgirls.
Apparently, I had COVID decades before it was popular. Exercise intolerance is the key marker of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Congratulations, guys — if you don’t get better within three years, you probably won’t — until they figure out the cause and real treatments/cure beyond “don’t push beyond your limits and cause yourself to crash into greater exhaustion.” Yay.
