My period is a week late this month. I have quite a regular menstrual cycle. As this worries me, I bought a home pregnancy test kit last night but it was negative. This worries me even more. Missed period, but NOT pregnant. Since the urine pregnancy test is quite accurate that maybe I have some other reason for missed period.
After googling the net for the whole night, I am now relieve a bit. As missing a period or two is absolutely common and normal, even for those who has very regular menstrual cycle.
Missing a menstrual period is a lot more common than most people realize. This is often called amenorrhea, the technical word for absence of menstrual periods.
There are various reasons for the period to be late / missed and the pregnancy test to be negative.
Stress is major cause of missed or delayed periods. Stress interferes with the normal hormonal signals from your brain and it can block ovulation. This causes the cycle to become irregular.
Being overweight or underweight can also interfere with your normal menstrual cycle.
Birth control pills or DepoProvera may make periods disappear too. It is okay to not have periods when you are taking these medications.
In most women, premature menopause is a very remote possibility. A measurement of the FSH blood level on the third day of your cycle will give clues as to whether you should consider menopause as a probable cause.
Some other characteristic causes of missed periods include undergoing any major changes in your life, such as moving, starting a new job, or changed eating or exercise habits.
Being told the above possibilities of my delayed period, I will wait for another week before repeat the pregnancy test again. My instincts tell me that the change of my eating habits might be the culprit of the delayed / missed period.

Indiana Pacers game headaches to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the NBA playoffs. The Pacers had ensured their fighting spirit with a comprehensive 121-87 victory in game six on Friday, sending the Vas to the game 7 on Sunday night. At last, LeBron James scored 45 points to lead the Cavaliers to a 105-101 win over the troublemaker Pacers and into the second round of the NBA playoffs.
LeBron helps the Cavs eliminate Indiana Pacers in game 7
A loss would not only have ended the Cavs' season earlier than expected and their reign as three-time conference champions. Had the Cavs lost the game 7, this would be LeBron's first time to be eliminated in the first round. But he came out to his third 40-point game of the series to stay unbeaten in the opening round of the NBA playoffs.
Tristan Thompson was back after many games on the bench and added 15 points and 10 rebounds. Kevin Love was all by himself, making four 3-pointers. And George Hill who had returned after missing three games with back spasms scored 11 in 19 second-half minutes.
The Indiana Pacers' Nigerian Victor Oladipo, who has been a threat to the Cavs' defense, dropped 30 points while Darren Collison had 23. It Pacers within four points in the final minute before a cutting James scored on a bullet pass from Kyle Korver with 30 seconds left. The victory earned them a second-round meeting with East top seeds Toronto Raptors. Raptors beat the Washington Wizards in round one.

As one of the world's busiest international financial centres, the Cayman Islands attract people whose property is often located in multiple jurisdictions. For this reason, close attention ought to be paid to the arrangement of property and affairs in such a way as to ensure the most effective method of distribution of assets. In particular, attention should be paid to the rules of all jurisdictions in which property is owned, especially in regard to the taxation of an estate. Regard also needs to be had to any decision which may be made to decline to leave a gift to any close family member.
The formalities for the creation of a will in the Cayman Islands are set out in the Wills Law (2004R), which is largely based on the English Wills Act (1837). The basic requirements for a valid will are that it must be:
a. Is over 18;
b. Intends to make a will; and
c. Has the necessary mental capacity to make the will.
An important point to keep in mind is that a will is revoked by marriage. Therefore, a new will should always be executed after a marriage. A significant point of divergence from English law is that wills in the Cayman Islands are not affected by divorce. These rules make it clear that any significant change in circumstances – marriage, divorce or the birth of children – should always be followed by a new will, to reflect and accommodate that change.
Foreign Assets
For local residents with foreign assets, it is important to be conscious of the rules applicable in the country in which the foreign assets are held. A will prepared in the Cayman Islands will not always govern the distribution of foreign assets. For this reason, it is advisable to prepare multiple wills, so that the assets in each jurisdiction are dealt with according to the wishes of the testator, but also in accordance with the local rules governing the distribution of an estate.
Although there is no inheritance tax in the Cayman Islands, there is such a duty imposed in many countries in which assets may be held. For example, in the United Kingdom, all assets in an estate valued over £325,000 will, as a general rule, be subject to an inheritance tax of 40%. Clearly, this can be a very significant burden on an estate.
There is, therefore, often a great deal of benefit to be derived from structuring one's affairs in such a way that there is a minimal exposure to tax. This may take the form of expatriating assets from jurisdictions in which inheritance tax is imposed, or moving assets into a legal vehicle such as a company or a discretionary trust, so that the assets are not in the hands of the testator at the date of death. Both of these options would also potentially avoid the need for multiple wills.
The purpose of these steps is to ensure that the value of the estate is not significantly reduced by taxes, charges, or even legal costs. It is also desirable that the estate be distributed according to the wishes of the testator, rather than any specific rules which may be found in particular jurisdictions. For example, in countries in which Sharia laws apply, there are strict rules governing distribution of assets, and these can only be varied only to a very limited extent.
Powers of Attorney
A power of attorney is an instrument by which a donor gives another person the power to carry out transactions on their behalf, or deal with their property. In doing so, they must act within the scope of the instructions from the principal. Cayman has no scheme of enduring powers of attorney, which means that any power of attorney issued under local legislation will expire automatically upon the expiration of a set period, upon the death of the donor, or in the event of the mental incapacity of the donor.
Therefore, a power of attorney can be a useful instrument for someone travelling abroad, or who is, for some other reason temporarily unable to attend to their affairs. However, it is not the best choice of instrument for aging property owners, who may be at risk of losing legal capacity.
Testamentary Discretion
As a general proposition, in common law countries, every person has the right to decide how their assets are divided upon their death. This is referred to as "testamentary freedom". This includes a decision made by the testator to exclude a close family member from their will, such as a child or spouse.
In many countries, this freedom has been overridden by statute, so that children, spouses, and even grandchildren may have the right to claim on an estate if there is not adequate provision made for them in a will. However, no such legislation exists in the Cayman Islands.
This means that there are very limited avenues available to a family member who has been excluded from a will. Generally, the only course open to a disappointed family member who believes they have been unfairly excluded is to challenge the validity of the will itself.
With limited exception, there are two major grounds for contesting a will. The first is invalidity on the basis of a failure to comply with the formalities required by the Wills Law. The second is a lack of testamentary capacity, whether through mental impairment, or the undue influence of a third party.
Invalidity is relatively straightforward. If any of the requirements set out in the Law are missing – such as two witnesses, or the signature of the testator – then the will is invalid. However, showing a lack of testamentary capacity can be much more difficult. It must be shown that the testator failed to understand the extent of their estate, the potential claimants on their estate, and the nature of the moral claim they may have. Proving this can be a lengthy and expensive process.
If a challenge is successful, the will is declared to be invalid, and any prior, valid, will should be admitted to probate. If there is no valid prior will available, then the rules governing the distribution of assets on intestacy will be applied.
The costs of both sides involved in such a dispute will usually be paid from the estate, unless either side has behaved in such a way that leads the court to require them to pay their own costs.
It is therefore clear that, when drafting a will, there are many important issues to bear in mind. The location of the assets must be the first consideration, which then leads in to the question of how those assets are to be distributed. Failing to make proper arrangements in advance may result in a substantial reduction in the total value of the assets of an estate, and therefore a diminution in the value of the gifts received by chosen beneficiaries.

In what's been described by county planners as a major revision to the draft General Plan Update, nine implementation measures of the Infrastructure Element are proposed to be blended into a single and less binding directive.
An ongoing trend of changing the Planning Commission-approved version of the update continued at an April 21 Board of Supervisors hearing. County Planner John Miller told supervisors that since most of them support altering policies that establish minimum levels of service and requirements for new development, several related implementation measures will be rendered inconsistent.
The affected implementation measures include those that call for fiscal impact studies, developer impact fees and formation of infrastructure tax districts under the state's Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act.
Those measures are unpopular among developers and responding to comments from the board majority at a previous update hearing, Miller proposed blending all the measures into a more general one.
It loosely calls for consideration of funding sources and specifies that they'll be pursued "as directed by the Board of Supervisors."
An ad-hoc stakeholders group has been making recommendations on update policies, often with split opinions. McKinleyville resident Ben Shepherd, a member of the group and part of its developer contingent, told supervisors the combo measure is a "great idea," as the implementation measures it replaces were "very specific" and "not appropriate for Humboldt County."
Jen Kalt, another member of the ad hoc group who represents environmental interests, clarified that the stakeholders haven't considered the proposal and she had no comment on it.
The new measure was presented to supervisors by staff without advance notice, a situation that has been controversial in the past. Apparently alluding to that, Supervisor Estelle Fennell, who was executive director of the Humboldt Coalition for Property Rights before being elected, said her initial reaction to the proposal was to think that "they're springing surprises on us" but she described the surprise as a pleasant one.
"I think this reflects that staff has been listening to the concerns that have been expressed and to make things clear and simple," Fennell continued. She said the new measure covers the ones it replaces "quite nicely."
County Planning Director Kevin Hamblin described the measure as one that allows flexibility. "This is not meant to limit any option that the Board of Supervisors may have, even those that now appear to be burdensome would still be allowed as tools, but aren't mentioned or called out specifically," he said.
Methods of funding service and infrastructure expansions would be determined at the time projects are being reviewed and would be "based on the desire of the developer" and subject to board approval, Hamblin continued.
Supervisor Rex Bohn said implementation measures like formation of Mello-Roos districts are "burdensome" and won't work in Humboldt County. He said the composite measure will "answer some of my peeps's concerns."
Supervisor Mark Lovelace has been the lone dissenter on previous straw votes in favor of changing the element's policies. He said the new measure is "generic" and some of the measures it replaces aren't related to development projects, such as one that calls for a countywide study on impact fees.
Since the combined implementation measure was unveiled at the hearing, supervisors heeded a staff recommendation to hold off on straw-voting it to allow time for public review and response.
Aside from that and items that will be modified by staff and returned, supervisors finished their review of the element and will begin work on the draft safety and air quality elements at a May 6 hearing.

UNION CITY, TN. When Donna Walker began her career in banking at what was formerly Old & Third National Bank forty years ago, banking looked a little different than it does today. Over the years, she's seen debit cards, direct deposits, ATM machines, mobile banking, Netteller and computers all change the way consumers bank, but her love for the job has only grown.
"Back in the day, most things were done by hand, and records were kept on paper," Donna says. "Customers had to come to the bank to make deposits and get cash. We were always extremely busy."
Old & Third National Bank eventually became Commercial Bank and Trust Company (CBTC), but Donna continued her work with the bank.
Her job duties at CBTC have been versatile throughout her career. She has served as a teller, teller supervisor, head teller, lock box clerk, ordering supplies, overseeing the maintenance of the building and equipment, customer service representative, and liaison to human resources. She also took on the duty of overseeing the future fund accounts, but her favorite role was that of CSR.
"What I love most about my job is helping others," Donna says. "From assisting other employees to serving our customers, I find it all rewarding. My customers depend on me to help them with their banking needs, but I have the opportunity to share in their lives as well. I am grateful that I can continue to serve them and am excited for what's ahead."
Commercial Bank and Trust Company was chartered in 1877. The bank has operations in Jackson, Memphis, Paris, and Union City, Tennessee. Mott Ford is the Chief Executive Officer of Commercial Bank and Trust Company. In Union City, the bank has offices at 127 South First Street and 815 East Reelfoot Avenue.

With the redesign of my own blog complete, and a few inquiries about my designs, I decided to take on some blog design clients again last month. I wrote a little about it when I offered a blog header as one of the giveaways during my blog party, and shared the first one I'd completed. It makes me so happy to create a space for people online that feels like home.
Today I want to share another completed design with you. This one was done for Ashley of Markland & Main. She was open to trying a different type of layout, with the header in the sidebar and I love how it turned out! Lots of arrows to direct your eye and a favorite color pallet of mine (pink and brown were my wedding colors).
I have also finished designing the header for the winner of my giveaway last month, Zelina of Honey in the Sun. Her boyfriend is working on getting it up on her blog still, but I love it too much to wait to share! I wanted something that felt warm and looked like how the name of her blog made me feel. I saw this idea in my mind, and I it came together just as I'd imagined. I literally did a happy dance when I finished it and she loved it just as much as me!
Are you looking for a fresh new blog design to match your personality and spirit? I'd love to work with you to create an online home you'll feel comfortable in. :) Please check out my Blog Design page and see if there is a package there that works for you. And feel free to email me with any questions: shadylane_14{at}hotmail{dot}com.
Is there a design feature you love to see on blogs?
Do you like blogs with clean lines or lots of little details?
What is your favorite thing about your own blog?

Leachox™ Refractory and Sulphide Gold Process
The Leachox™ Refractory Gold Process – The Testing, Design, Installation and Commissioning of a large Scale Plant at the VASGOLD Gold Mine, Kazakhstan. Presented at the MEI Precious Metals '10 Conference, Falmouth, Cornwall, UK, June 2010.
Leachox™ Developments
MMS leach reactors reduces leach time to a matter of hours. The fact that the material is extremely fine, -20 microns, -10 microns or even -5 microns means that the gold can be recovered by adsorption on specialised resins in resin columns without the need for a solid-liquid separation step. Combining gold sulphide concentrate production using G-Cell centrifugal flotation, ultra-fine grinding, Aachen Reactors, MMS leach columns and Resin Columns means a dramatically reduced footprint size of plant compared with other refractory gold processes.
MMS also has developed the MMS Cyanide Destruction Process (CN-D Process) which offers a low cost method of destroying residual cyanides to far below International Cyanide Code levels and which goes hand in hand with the Leachox Process.
Leachox Testwork
Leachox and Cyanide Destruction (CN-D) Pilot Plant Facility
(Click to expand)
MMS have a fully equipped metallurgical laboratory and pilot plant facility in Johannesburg. The laboratory has full Leachox testing facilities. It also has testwork facilities in Cardiff in conjunction with Cardiff University to undertake Leachox work
A minimum of 50kgs of concentrate are required for a pilot plant test, however smaller quantities can be evaluated for response to Leachox in lab scale tests.

It is not your lucky day if you find Search.tapufind.com in your browsers upon launching them. This search page may look all legitimate and similar to reputable search engines like Google, but we must warn you that this one may pose a threat to your system security. In fact, our malware experts at anti-spyware-101.com say that this is a browser hijacker coming from Israel, similar to snap.do. This hijacker is mostly spread by suspicious file-sharing pages and could travel bundled with other malware infections. Thus, its presence can easily mean that your computer has been infected with a number of threats eating at your system security right now. If you do not want to be exposed to potentially harmful third-party content, you should remove Search.tapufind.com from your computer right away. But first, let us explain how you may have infected your PC so that you can avoid similar threats in the future. Read more »
If you have discovered that 5finder.com has replaced your regular default search provider, most likely, you can find the 5finder extension installed as well. This extension can be downloaded from the Chrome web store at chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/5finder/hllhmnocnnpkdlonakiicfpohccpecni, but it is also represented via P2P file-sharing websites. In this case, the installer of this potentially unwanted program (PUP) is introduced to the user via a pop-up. It is difficult to say whether the PUP stands on its own or travels bundled with third-party software. If it is downloaded along with other suspicious and undesirable pieces of software, it is crucial to perform an inspection. While experienced users might handle it on their own, we suggest installing a malware scanner tool that is set up to inspect the system and go through every file to unveil any malicious ones. Hopefully, the removal of other threats is not what you need to worry about, and you only need to focus on deleting 5finder.com. Read more »

Dr. Allen answers questions about his new book
Dr. Allen, first of all, thank you for taking the time to participate in this interview. I've been eagerly looking forward to the release of your latest book, Letters to my Students, as I'm sure many of our readers have been as well. I'd love to hear about the inspiration behind the book—why this book and why now?
In my earliest months of exploring my own call to ministry, Spurgeon's Lectures to My Students proved invaluable. Page by page, Lectures to My Students answered questions I was asking – and questions I should have been asking.
Now I find myself some twenty years removed from those deliberations, and fielding so many of the same questions that I once was asking. Thus, this book is my humble attempt to build upon Spurgeon's great legacy, and answer questions for a new generation of pastors, ministers, and missionaries.
For any of our readers familiar with the legacy of Charles Spurgeon, the title will ring familiar to them. Talk to us about the title and Spurgeon's influence on the volume.
As I mentioned, Spurgeon proved invaluable to me at a pivotal season of my life and ministry. Thankfully, church history is full of heroes for us to emulate, but in a very real sense, Spurgeon stands in a league of his own. His pulpit and his pen both were indefatigable, and the effects of his ministry rippled around the globe and into our present age.
Stylistically and thematically, Lectures to My Students very much impacted Letters to My Students. Like Spurgeon, I'm dealing with the practicalities of preaching, and seeking to engage these topics in ways that are accessible and helpful to ministers and ministers-in-training.
This is the first volume in the series, might we be lucky enough for you to foreshadow future volumes or is that information under wraps?
Volume two is lining up to be on pastoral ministry and volume three on pastoral leadership. Across America, congregations are starving for men of God who are equipped to shepherd the flock of God. What is more, while pastoral ministry is much more than leadership, it certainly involves leadership essentials. I hope to advance both these topics in ways, like volume one on preaching, that are biblically faithful and practically helpful.
It is not hard to find individuals bemoaning the state of the Church these days. Yet, we love hearing stories and perspectives that run against the pessimistic take on the Church; what most encourages you about the state of preaching today?
You're right, many people are pessimistic about the state of the church today. I suppose I'm naturally Churchillian in that I'm a natural optimist, but I'm also aware it doesn't do much good to be anything else. Yet as it relates to the church, my optimism is reinforced by Matthew 16 and some 2,000 years of church history.
In our current generation, there is a rising new generation of pastors committed to preaching the word and to the inerrancy, authority, and sufficiency of Scripture. Indeed, these doctrines are the primary shaper of their pulpit ministry.
Most pointedly, Midwestern Seminary encourages me greatly because I see so many young men passionate about these very things, and they are giving their lives to these ends.
This book is on the topic of preaching. Any of our readers familiar with your work know you've done a substantial amount of teaching, writing, thinking on this topic and even host a great podcast on preaching. What preachers have had the biggest impact on you as a preacher?
This is another great question. Given the accessibility of pulpit ministries in the year 2019, we have an embarrassment of riches before us. So much has changed even in the past twenty years. When I was beginning to cut my teeth in ministry in the late 90s, I was primarily listening to audio cassettes. That quickly moved from CDs to DVDs to online listening and now, of course, to podcasts. Candidly, I'm pretty eclectic and I enjoy listening to many different preachers. Over the years, a few have, indeed, been quite helpful. Amongst these would be, Steve Lawson, Adrian Rogers, John MacArthur, Al Mohler, Alistair Begg, Don Carson, H.B. Charles, and many more.
Some of the figures you've named as influences have proven to have a long tenure as a faithful Bible preachers. We hope many young preachers reading this article aim to have that kind of faithful-over-the-decades kind of ministry. What would you say is one of the most important qualities a young preacher can cultivate to aid in longevity in the pulpit?
I think the best way to cultivate a long tenure in pulpit ministry is to preach through books of the Bible. I believe expository preaching cultivates lengthy tenures for a number of reasons, but consider just two. First of all, if you're committed to preaching through books of the Bible, you never run out of content to preach. Many pastors hop church to church every few years simply because they've run out of stuff in their repertoire. On the contrary, men of biblical exposition can go from one book of the Bible to the next for their whole lifetimes and never come close to running out of material to preach on.
Additionally, biblical exposition anchors one in the local church because week to week and year to year, ministry is preset. As one who pastored for many years, my week began already knowing the passage I would preach on Sunday, and then I would spend my week trying to understand and apply that text to myself, and ultimately, to my hearers. Such series kept me focused on the upcoming Lord's Day, thus I was never inclined to spend time updating my resume or shopping for a new church to pastor. My priorities were preestablished.
Thanks again for your time, Dr. Allen. Anything else you'd like to say about the upcoming book in particular or homiletics in general?
Thanks for giving me the final word, Ronni. I would simply say that I am quite encouraged about Letters to My Students. I'm already receiving tremendous feedback from many, and I trust this book will be of help to ministers everywhere, both in the season ahead, and for decades to come.

Do women plant churches differently than men? Do they use different methods or a different style?
gender differences
A recent meeting of the Conference on Faith and History featured a paper session titled "20th century evangelicalism." Surprisingly, all three papers focused on conservative Protestant gender ideologies in the years since World War II. Just a few years ago, I would have expected studies of evangelicalism to emphasize political influence. Is gender the hot new topic?

The gunman in a shooting that killed four people and injured several others at Naval Air Station Pensacola on Friday morning was a Saudi national, according to Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The FBI has taken the lead in the continuing investigation, though there has been no immediate determination on whether the shooting was terror-related, two sources told USA TODAY.
Authorities said the suspect was among the four people killed. Eight others, including two deputies, were injured and taken to the hospital.
The shooting happened just two days after a U.S. Navy sailor shot three people and killed himself at Pearl Harbor.
Here's what we know:
How many people were injured at NAS Pensacola?
Four people, including the shooter, were confirmed dead, authorities said in a press conference Friday morning. Eight were injured.
Eight patients were accepted to nearby Baptist Hospital. One died there. Three people died on the base. Authorities later announced that another person had also been injured.
The names of the victims will not be released until the next of kin have been notified, the U.S. Navy said in a statement.

LOS ANGELES - I continue to be captivated by the popularity and the longevity of the Star Trek phenomenon. It remains a pervasive factor in my life, whether professionally, personally or in my public service activities. And this gift has serendipitously expanded my horizon and enriched my life.
A direct professional tie-in can be viewed on February 18th when an episode of "V.I.P." starring Pamela Anderson is aired on the Fox network. I play the voice of an omniscient super computer that was programmed by a brilliant techno-genius who is a fervent Captain Sulu fan. Hence, my casting as the voice of the computer.
The Star Trek conventions, of course, keep on trekking. My first convention of this year was in the charming city of Portland, Oregon. It was a lively gathering on a cold, damp weekend. Long-time fans mingled with a growing number of young, first-time conventioneers. And, as well, the con gave me the chance to indulge my preservationist interest and again explore the imaginatively restored turn-of-the-century historic district of Portland.
I did voice work last week on a feature film project, cryptically titled, "Noon Blue Apple." I play a mysterious voice that haunts the mind of the lead character. No direct Star Trek connection here other than the fact that the director knew of my work from the original series.
But Star Trek has also afforded me the opportunity to contribute more effectively in a myriad of other areas not related to my professional career. This month, I was honored to serve as the star of a fund-raising dinner to help build a planetarium on the campus of Long Beach City College. With this facility, young students will be able to expand their study of the heavens and let their imaginations soar to the stars. Clearly, without the Star Trek association, I would not have been able to support this important cause as effectively as I was able.
On another occasion this month, I addressed a group of young interns at the Japanese American National Museum on volunteerism. Here again, I was able to connect with them more successfully as Captain Sulu of Star Trek than as the Chairman of the Board of the Museum.
We have a mayoral election coming up this spring in the city of Los Angeles, my hometown. I am supporting the former Speaker of the California Assembly, Antonio Villaraigosa. I know that I was asked to speak at his press conference largely because of the draw of my Star Trek linkage. As well, when I spoke at the Japanese seniors' intermediate care facility, Keiro Services, Star Trek combined with my association with the Japanese American National Museum, were the factors that attracted the large audience of seniors. I chatted with one lady who was 104 years old. She was born in 1896 - having lived in three centuries! In so many unexpected ways, my association with Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry's visionary creation has opened doors that have expanded my life horizon.
But when any hint of self-importance might begin to creep into me and I start believing that my Star Trek association is free entrée to anything, a humbling reminder always seems to bring me back to reality.
This month, my niece, Akemi Takei, sportscaster for KING-TV in Seattle, got married to David Louchheim, a radio sportscaster, on a beautiful beach in Maui, Hawaii. It was a singularly romantic affair, the bride and groom barefoot, with waves crashing in on lava rock outcroppings behind them. The reception was held at a hilltop restaurant overlooking the Wailea Country Club and the turquoise blue Pacific beyond. As we sipped cocktails, nibbled hors d'oeuvres and waited for the sun to set, I slowly became aware of a generational divide. The parents of my niece and David's friends were thrilled to meet me. They were eager to have their pictures taken with me. They told me they were long-time Star Trek fans from back in their college days. The young people, however -- Akemi and David's friends -- were gracious and friendly but rather blase. In fact, some weren't really that familiar with Star Trek. They, I realized, were the post-Star Trek generation. The passage of time brings with it the larger context of life.I was forcefully reminded again of the larger context of life on a hike into the crater of the now-dormant volcano, Haleakala on Maui. The crater is vast. And it is heart-stoppingly beautiful. There is a narrow, lava gravel trail that leads down to the bottom. It was irresistible. I had to go down into it. As I tramped down the sere landscape, rich with the burnt colors of inert lava, I imagined what this scene must have been like millennia ago. It was, we were told by a ranger, an inferno of blasting, bubbling, molten red lava. For centuries it spewed up flaming magma from the belly of the earth forming the island of Maui. This place was a hellhole of exploding liquid fire. But now, it was dead calm. Only this scorched and arid crater of unearthly colors remains.
As I huffed and puffed my way back up to the volcano's rim - 10,000-feet above sea level -- I thought of the ardent excitement of the middle-aged Star Trek fans of the evening before, and, in contrast, the nonchalant affability of their children. Intense fire and cool, youthful calm. There didn't seem to be that much difference between the human generations and geologic time.

The move came as a sort of perfect storm.
Dad received the house and its surrounding properties from an Uncle he had not seen since his teens. It was all paid off, so if Mom and Dad could sell the house, they could actually pay of the mortgage. They waited though, to see if each of them could find a job in the town which we would be moving to. Both asked their bosses and contacted people within the town itself, and through interviewing and resumes both were hired. They decided to wait a little longer, to check the school there, which had an excellent graduation and college acceptance rate, and those who did not graduate enjoyed success at trades or family businesses. Then the house sold after two weeks on the market.
When they no longer had any excuses, they told us to pack.
Alethea complained and grew more excited with every passing second. She detested the idea of moving right before her junior year, when she was very nearly at the peak of high school society, but she enjoyed the idea of "reinventing" herself.
"I hardly think you need to worry about reinventing yourself, Thea," Mom told her while she helped her pack up another box of clothes.
"Oh, I guess you're right." She grinned. "I guess I was thinking of Tempest."
I left the room when she said that.
Let me explain: I am not ugly. There seems, however, to be qualifications to my becoming beautiful. All I need to do is lose the dumpy "baby" fat that still clings to my frame, maybe grow my hair out a little, and learn to wear a little make up. The older women around me say I just need to bloom, as if it will happen overnight. They say that it happened for Alethea, so it will happen for me. But they are wrong. Alethea has always been a very certain kind of beautiful. She has never had to work at it, and she certainly did not need to "bloom."
She enjoys making fun of me for it, that everyone thinks she's the pretty one. And me? I'm the one who sticks to my room, who will probably have lots of cats when she gets older. That is what Alethea thinks, and so everyone else thinks it too.
You would never guess by our personalities that we were family (or that we even remotely liked each other), but you would certainly not guess by our looks that we were actually twins. She has auburn hair, an easy tan, and bright, bright green eyes. I have black hair, that came from somewhere on my dad's side of the family, I burn more than I tan, and my eyes are murky blue, like polluted water. Apparently, they reminded my mother of a storm, which is why she named me Tempest.
"She doesn't mean those things," my mother said, as she stood in my door way and watched me pack my books. She would probably not help me pack, or even carry my things down to the trailer Dad wanted to rent to take some advanced possessions. No, I was not the one who needed help, not ever.
"If she didn't mean them, she wouldn't say them with a sick grin on her face," I told her. "She means them."
"I won't try and stop you from believing what you want to believe," she said. She looked up at my wall of books. "Remind me to get you an e-reader for Christmas. You have too many books."
"No such thing," I muttered under my breath as soon as she vacated my doorway. My library had grown with me since I was a young girl, since I learned to read, really. We had run out of shelves in the house to hold all of them, so really they sat in piles against one wall. I wanted to rectify that when I got to the new house, so I had made it very clear to my parents. I did not care if I got the biggest room or the one with a walk in closet, or even a view of the sea. All I wanted for furnishings in my room were a bed, a desk, a book shelf and maybe a new easel if we could be bothered to spend the time looking. Somehow I knew I wasn't going to get my wish.
When the house was completely packed, we piled personal items into the trailer which would be attached to Dad's truck, and then larger items, and the rest of the house, into the moving van. Then we were off for the week long, grueling drive to our new home on the west coast. I spent most of the time reading, drawing in my sketch pad and navigating as Mom was hopeless with a map and Alethea would not be bothered to try. It meant I got to sit up front, so I did not mind much.
After the week was finished, I had to admit the town we were driving into was quite charming. It was sandwiched between mountains and the sea, so we went up the side of a mountain, and then down into a valley to get there. The whole place was quite hilly and everywhere you went, there were old paths and steps that took you into places of the town or the mountains which you may never see again. Upon first glance, I figured I could live as a starving artist here quite comfortably for the rest of my life.
"Now girls," Mom said as we navigated the streets, Dad behind us with the trailer. "I don't want you sitting around the house all summer, moping about. I realize both of you are in a new city, and you don't really know anyone, but I'm giving you just one week to unpack your rooms. Then I want you out. I don't care what you do, so long as it's not illegal. Walk the town, meet people, try and get a job. You are turning sixteen, soon, so it won't be that hard."
We arrived at the house, which sat perched at the top of a hill, in the middle of the day, which was plenty of time for us to unpack the trailer, roll out some sleeping bags and call out for pizza. During which time, I set up a course of action for my days of summer. I knew if I didn't do something, Mom would force me to tag along with Alethea, which never ended well. So I made plans to find the used book store and an art store in town, and spend my days reading and doing landscapes of my surroundings—there would be plenty of new ones for me to cover.
The truck arrived the next day, and we quickly unpacked the house, though there were still boxes here and there and some that went up into storage. The next day, Mom drove us into town to pick out our rooms. All of the stores which could possibly be needed in doing so were all in the same place, so going from one to the next was easy. I found a bed and a desk easily enough, and even a trunk which was on sale and could hold all of my art supplies. I was at a loss for a shelf large enough to hold all of my books.
The man at the furnishings store scratched his head when I described my dilemma.
"Well," he said. "You could always make a set. There's plenty of supplies for that kind of project in the hardware store, and probably a few instruction manuals as well. Not that shelves are a particularly difficult thing to do."
"Thank you for the advice," I said. I had to go to the hard ware store anyway to pick out paint, so I might as well look at the wood, and ask how I might put up some shelves.
They were quite helpful, telling me about how much wood I should need for a project like mine, and what kind of fixtures to use to makes sure the shelves staid up. They even had a stain I could apply that would match my bed, trunk and desk. When I called Mom to ask if she would mind me bringing home lumber she replied,
"Oh, sweetie, I didn't know you would be done so soon. Alethea and I went out to lunch. Listen, call your dad and he should be able to pick you up." I tried not to clench my phone so tightly in my hand that it exploded, and dialed up my dad. He came right down and approved of my project, helping me load the lumber, paint and everything else I needed into the bed of the truck, and then we drove home.
"Can you keep a secret?" he asked as we pulled up into the drive.
"Sure," I replied.
"You know how the house is huge?" he asked.
"Yes," I replied.
"Well, there's a sort of shed," he said. "I think my uncle had it redone so that maybe he could use it as a work room. Anyway, no one's using it. I thought you might like it for a kind of studio." I blinked at his kindness.
"Sure, thanks, Dad." We unloaded the truck and brought all of the lumber into the former work room, and then I took the paint up to my room, dropped some clothes on the hard wood floors and began to paint. When Mom and Alethea finally came home, the first coat was already up and drying. I had taken measurements of the walls and was down in my studio staining boards for when I would cut them up and nail two together so that they would be wide enough that I could put books on them. I did not come out for fear that my mother would finagle me into helping Alethea with her room, and so I would never get mine done.
I kept to myself, working diligently and keeping out of the way of my sister. I finished my room and it had a particularly calm affect to it. The walls were a sea blue, with darker blue spirals and waves flowing out of pockets. The shelves on the walls were a dark mahogany color, and they held my books with room left over for more. But then the week was done.
I still had my plan though. I got up early, showered, ate breakfast, and then wandered out to the art supply store I had taken note of. I bought new pads of paper, pencils, pastels, charcoals and other pieces of supplies, and carried them out in a supply box which I had used for years. Then I meandered down toward the used book store I spotted and browsed the shelves for what felt like hours, though when I got out, I had not passed nearly enough time. So I sat down with my carefully selected bunch of new novels and began to read until a clock in the center of the city began to chime for four o' clock. Then I started the winding ways back home.
"So what did you girls do today?" Mom asked.
"I met some kids at the local pool. I'm gonna be going to school with them next semester," she proclaimed, happily. My parents smiled and nodded in approval.
"What did you do, Tempest?" my father asked.
"I just wandered around," I replied. "Got to know the town." My parents always thought there might be something wrong with me, because I liked to be alone. I never saw anything wrong with wanting to have my own piece of quiet to think and create it. But they never really got it. There were almost therapists involved a few times, but I passed basic psychological evaluations. There was nothing wrong with me, to their everlasting surprise.

But in recent years and, more specifically, the past 6 months, he's been more like Sideshow Bob surrounded by rakes, blundering into one after the next, hitting himself in the face and looking around for someone else to blame. The belief among his rabid fans that Musk is playing three-dimensional chess is looking shaky. In fact, it seems more like he's been cheating at Monopoly with a stacked deck. But still, this grudgeful geek's luck hasn't run out.
When the Securities and Exchange Commission published a complaint against Musk this week as a result of his aborted bid to take the company private — a saga that involved market-moving tweets and a childish decision to pick $420 as the proposed share price (allegedly to amuse his musician girlfriend Grimes) — it looked like he was finally going to face real consequences. He potentially could have been stripped of his right to act as a director of a public company, removed from Tesla, the electric car company he founded and untangled from his other interests including SpaceX. But that didn't happen.
Instead, in what a law professor told CNBC news, could be "the quickest SEC settlement in history", Musk's punishment for issuing what the regulator had deemed "false and misleading statements" is the loss of his position as chairman of the Tesla board for three years, a personal fine of $20 million and a fine of the same amount levied against Tesla. With a net worth that hovers in the region of $20 billion, usually dipping below that when Musk himself does something idiotic, the SEC's action is the equivalent of a speeding fine, and the addition of two independent directors to Tesla's board is likely to be little more than an inconvenience.
Changes in governance at Tesla aren't enough. Musk needs to drastically alter his personal behaviour and that's unlikely to happen. As well as the farcical and irresponsible saga around taking Tesla private, recent months have also seen him involved in a bizarre war of words with the rapper Azalea Banks, accusing a man involved in the Thai soccer team cave rescue of being a sex offender, after manically offering up a submarine of his own design as a solution, and smoking weed on video while appearing on Joe Rogan's podcast. That is not even an exhaustive list of his bizarre, aggressive and immature behaviour.
But, as unlikely as it sounds, all of those controversies are minor compared to the fragile reality of Tesla's financials — continuing to make huge losses — and the chaotic way the company seems to be operated, best typified by the Heath Robinson-style assembly line in a tent outside its Fremont factory that Musk gussied up to deal with a production shortfall for the Model S sedan. This month alone, Tesla has faced two more worker safety investigations from California's Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal-OSHA), and there are six other investigations still ongoing. In June, a former Tesla factory worker sued the company, alleging he was fired after alerting management to safety concerns and claimed injuries go routinely unreported.
Tesla's long-standing antipathy towards unions has also to come to court. The trial, which kicked off in June, is another situation triggered by Musk's tweets. In May, he wrote, "Why pay union dues & give up stock options for nothing?" Grimes also tweeted — in a message that was subsequently deleted — "literally tried to instigate union vote so y'all wud layoff but UAW can't get enough signatures cuz they abandoned Fremont plant in the last crash." The outbursts led to the Union of Auto Workers submitting a complaint to the National Labor Relations Board, which believes Musk's tweet was a violation of labour law. Tesla says the tweets were taken out of context. Now Tesla is fighting against claims it restricted union organising and retaliated against pro-union workers.
Returning to that Simpsons analogy, you could paint Musk as a kind of Hank Scorpio figure, an avuncular super-villain with a plan to take over the world (or, in Musk's case, to colonise Mars). They do share a love of flamethrowers. But the comparison breaks down because Scorpio was quite nice to his workers. Musk's apparent genius doesn't seem to stretch to treating other human beings all that well. Still, cultivating an almost cartoonish public persona has worked out for Elon Musk for so long, with the added fuel of being tipped as the inspiration for Robert Downey Jnr's take on Tony Stark, that there's so far been no incentive for him to change. When you can pay a $20 million penalty and barely feel it, what would it take?
And if Elon Musk has been the rake-fighting Sideshow Bob this year, his future surely lies as a kind of Mr Burns, increasingly wealthy, increasingly bitter, increasingly far from the humanity he so frequently professes to be trying to save. I don't find Musk admirable, regardless of how many people worship at the altar of his wealth and his wild ideas. He seems to believe that technology can answer almost any question and that his particular solutions are always the best, regardless of the consequences for anyone else. The best thing he could do for the world right now is lose his Twitter password and never request a reset.

This tends to be a touchy subject and I know I'm about to step on some major toes, but I heard a song named "Letter to My Son" over the holiday weekend and it prompted me to really want to write this article. Now, before I get into what I need to say, I need to let you know that I have also had first hand experience when a man very close to me (I won't get specific) that was dealing with a crazy and desperate "baby mamma". I even wrote my second book, "It's Always the Pretty Ones" around the whole experience. I also need to state that I am in no way trying to demonize single moms. I have quite a few friends that are sensible, beautiful, smart and responsible single moms that take care of their kids despite the challenge of not getting any support from their families or the child's father.
Now that all that is out of the way, let's get into this. Like I said before, I have first hand knowledge of what an insane "Baby Mama" can do to your life and family. Don't get me wrong; I know there are plenty of low down guys out there that shirk out on their duties as men and fathers. I'm talking about the decent ones that get abused by women that have lost their scruples.
Stop using your child as a bargaining chip!
This tends to be the most widely used tactic. Okay… the relationship between the two of you didn't work out, where in that issue does your child pay for that? Regardless of the feelings you have (or don't have) for one another, your little one deserves to be able to spend equal time with both his parents. If he is paying child support, or trying to put time in…LET HIM! You standing in the way of his having a relationship with his kids scream desperation and is basically…pathetic. So, cut it out!
Child support payments are for just that…. CHILD SUPPORT.
Child support is meant to go to anything that pertains to the care and welfare of the child and where the child resides. This means food, rent/mortgage, clothing, utilities, car payments, insurance, doctor visits, etc. It DOES NOT include, that new Indian lace front, the new Coach bag, those cute boots at Macy's, drinks at the club, or gas money for your new Boo, "Mookie". The way you can get money for all those personal things is in the next tip….
Child Support is not meant to support YOU.
Yes, you are the child's mother, not the child. Child support is meant to be supplementary to your income. Unless you are disabled in some way there is no excuse. I get it, times are hard right now and the employment market is a bit funky, but I have witnessed women that spit on working at McDonalds, or Walmart. Why? It's work! There is nothing better than the feeling of that paycheck you EARNED on your own. It's liberating!
I also get the whole daycare expense. It is extremely expensive to find childcare that isn't the equivalent to a mortgage; I have kids of my own, trust me…I know. I also know and have had friends use the many different resources the state and government offers to assist with childcare, not to mention family and friends. Pride and ego have to go out the window. How about using some of your talents and starting your own business? How about going to school? Just do something to grab some independence for yourself.
Real talk for a second…if you are finding it difficult to support baby number one: don't have two, three and four. I'm just saying.
Terrorizing his family, friends and him will NOT get you what you want. What it will get you, however, is a restraining order.
Listen here… I get that you're angry with him. Whether you may be completely justified or not, stop taking it out on his family and friends! They DO NOT want you calling them, texting them, showing up at their houses, defacing their property, and making a general ass of yourself around them. Honestly, it just reflects badly on YOU. Disrespecting and stalking his loved ones will not get you any closer to what you want.
Stop bad mouthing him to his kids!
Seriously? Regardless of the man he is or isn't, YOU should NEVER utter one bad word about him to the kids; if he is a deadbeat loser, I guarantee you that the kids will figure that out on their own. Doing that kind of thing almost always backfires on you later on. Especially, if what you are telling them isn't the truth. Your best bet is to keep any anger or disdain between you and him. The kids should never know what is going on between the two of you.
Having said all this, I remind you that I am not speaking about every single mom. I am speaking to all the crazy, unreasonable, petty and misguided ones. What needs to be remembered that in these situations, the most important thing is the safety and welfare of the children. If he's a deadbeat, take his ass to court and ring him dry. If you can't find him or if he is paying and still won't take a role in his kids lives, do you really want someone like that around anyway?

TripAdvisor has been accused of removing claims of rape and assault from reviews made by the website's users.
The travel firm is now reportedly under investigation by the Federal Trade Commission.
Senator Tammy Baldwin, a Democrat from Wisconsin, was sent a letter informing her that the FTC is investigating TripAdvisor.
According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the letter – written by FTC chief Maureen Ohlhausen – explained: 'The Commission has a strong interest in protecting consumer confidence in the online marketplace, including the robust online market for hotel and travel.
'When consumers are unable to post honest reviews about a business, it can harm other consumers whose abilities to make well-informed purchase decisions are hindered and harm businesses that work hard to earn positive reviews.'
In a report by the Journal-Sentinel, one woman said that she was shocked to learn that the owner of a restaurant she visited just south of Baltimore – the Rams Head Tavern – had been charged with recording women while they were in the bathroom.
When she found out by reading a newspaper, her husband went straight to TripAdvisor to warn others about the 'Peeping Tom'.
But within a day, the couple claims, the post was deleted – with the firm explaining that the review did not meet website guidelines.
But TripAdvisor denied even knowing about the supposed FTC investigation.
In a statement released to Business Insider, the firm explained: 'We are not aware of an inquiry by the Federal Trade Commission nor have they contacted us.
'TripAdvisor is a global user-generated content platform that enables travelers to post positive and negative reviews and forum content about their experiences.
'We receive 290 pieces of content a minute and need to ensure that information posted on our site adheres to our content guidelines to ensure the integrity of these posts.
'We stand by our publishing guidelines and how they are applied.'

Under our "Information Sources" we have documents about the Places as well as Church Records. It is with many thanks to member John Rigarlsford that there are now two new documents available about East Brent. East Brent Remembers 1914-1918 is dedicated in remembrance and thanks to not only those who were casualties, but to all of the young men of our parish, who served in World War One. Also to their families, who suffered anxiously while their men were away….
The second document - Black Sheep of East Brent is a compilation of people and events which took place in East Brent which were dubious in nature and therefore of interest!
Both of these documents can be accessed under Information Sources for East Brent.

Anahata ~ Heart Chakra
Posted byon
Your heart chakra is located within your heart and is connected to love, compassion, harmony, and peace. If you are feeling unable to give or receive love or show compassion, your heart chakra might be blocked. It might be blocked from something that happened recently or many years ago. If your heart chakra is out of balance you will usually have feelings of anger, grief, hatred or jealousy. When your heart chakra is open you will have feelings full of love, forgiveness and compassion.
When your heart chakra is out of balance it can cause problems in all areas of life, including physical pain. Therefore it is very important to pay attention to this chakra and bring it into balance whenever needed. One way to do this is to meditate and change your perspective on things. Changing your attitude from anger to gratitude can make all the difference in the world. Easier said than done, however if you spend some time meditating, it can help tremendously.
Sit quietly (or put on some soft music with no words...the Insight Timer App is a great resource) in a comfortable position with your spine long. Set a timer if you think this will help (5 minutes minimum).Take some long deep breaths to settle in. Start to focus on your breath then you can introduce a mantra or affirmation to say over and over silently to yourself. Some examples are "I am grateful" "I am love" "I am forgiving" "Love flows easily and frequently" or come up with your own. Try this for several days in a row and keep the affirmations in your mind during the entire day and especially right before bed time. Much Love
