Ask Koren Your personal E-therapist, is in the house!
My Mother Don’t Pratice What She Preach Dear Koren, I am 17 years old and my mother does not want me to get a tattoo but she is dating a younger man and got her ears pierced with two more holes and I’m sure she is doing it to keep him because he is about 28 or something and mommy is 42. If I am the young one, don’t you think it is unfair that she should be able to do things to look better and I have to live like the old woman? I know you will probably take her side anyway, but I find that adults don’t like to practice what they preach. –SMH
look better, great, but we can’t assume that it is to keep a younger man. Not getting a tattoo does not mean that you are living like an old woman. There are so many joys of youth – you can dress nicely, wear a smile, develop a positive attitude, take your education seriously and make great friendships. Are you bothered by the age of your mother’s boyfriend? It sounds like that is a concern for you. Generally speaking, there is no set pattern for how adults become attracted to each other but if you feel uncomfortable with him or them together, then you can talk to her; however, you must understand that unless he is in any way harming you, she does not have any obligation to end the relationship. I suggest you maintain a good relationship with your mom and hang in there. When you hit the age of adulthood and you are responsible for yourself, you will find that some of the very same things she disapproved of are things you don’t want to do anyway.
Dear Daughter, While you are right that in many cases adults do not practice what they preach, this situation does not sound like that. You are 17 years old and still under the care of your mother. She has a right to prohibit you from doing things if it is inappropriate or you are not ready for it. How will a tattoo enhance who you are? What messages do you send as a school child with a tattoo? Have you considered the high infection rate from the use of dirty needles to mark the skin? Bear in mind, that the cost to remove a tattoo is way more than the cost to put it on as removal requires laser treatment. Your mother is an adult and can pierce her ears because she is responsible for herself. If it makes her

Remembering the Sinking of the Rhone One of the most tragic hurricanes to ever befall the British Virgin Islands happened 145 years ago. The year was 1867. My great-great grandfather, Henry Creque, was 9 years old. His parents and six siblings were huddled together for safety in a cramped, two-roomed cottage across the street from the Methodist Church in Anegada’s Settlement. Henry’s father, John Bedford Creque, or “the old man” as he was locally known, could tell that the weather was changing and something ominous was brewing but could not foresee the destruction

Cummings Ready To Try Her Hand At Talk Show For E! point that she’s learned to trust her instincts now instead of second-guessing herself all the time. So even though Cummings is, in a sense, venturing onto the same turf as close friend and mentor Chelsea Handler with this new E! series, the two shows actually will be quite different, Cummings says. “I’m going to be doing my show sober, so there’s a difference — at least for the first couple of months,” she cracks. “It’s also a little bit different formatwise. Chelsea has a very signature format. She has three comics on, and then she has a guest. Because she gets such big celebrity guests, I think I’m going to try to do more of a variety show format. It’s a little weirder, to be honest. “I’ll have kind of an opening monologue, but where she will talk about, like, six topics for two minutes apiece, I’m going to go more in depth in my topics. I’m a little more obsessive and annoying in terms of how I like to pick things apart. Chelsea likes to just move on, while I like to overthink, so this new format will reflect that.” Cummings says she expects to be more deferential to her guests than Handler often is. “Chelsea does not suffer fools. I do,” she says, laughing. “Just hang out with me and my friends sometimes. I not only suffer fools, I love fools. I aspire to have the indifference that Chelsea has. I’m not quite as self-assured or as stable emotionally as Chelsea is. I need people to like and approve of me much more than she does.” Joining Cummings as a sidekick on the show is Julian McCullough, another stand-up comic.
Is Whitney Cummings trying to take over the world? Just a couple of years ago, she was a cult standup comic best known in TV terms for her appearances on Chelsea Lately and a series of Comedy Central Roasts. Last year, however, the 30-year-old Cummings started to diversify in a big way, co-creating with Michael Patrick King (Sex and the City) the hit CBS sitcom 2 Broke Girls, on which she continues to produce and write, as well as creating, executive producing and starring on her own NBC sitcom, Whitney, which recently started its second season. On Wednesday, Nov. 28, Cummings takes on a third project, Love You, Mean It With Whitney Cummings, a weekly half-hour talk show on E! Entertainment Television, which the channel is pairing with its hit Joel McHale snarkfest, The Soup. How in the world is she going to keep all these balls in the air? “Here’s the loophole: I haven’t actually done this yet, so it has actually to be proven that I can do all three of these shows and survive it,” Cummings says. “We’ll see, but frankly, I’m not entirely confident that I’ll live through it. What I am most OCD and detail-oriented about is in finding the right staff and writers to choose, and that’s what I am putting a ton of energy into right now so I know that I have a great team around me.” It helps, too, that Cummings’ star has risen to the Limin’ Times Entertainment Guide

Safety Not Guaranteed Breezy and off-beat, Safety Not Guaranteed is in the vein of quirky indie films like Little Miss Sunshine, which put a dysfunctional family together on a road trip with unforeseen and wry consequences. Instead of family members, Safety Not Guaranteed throws together a disparate group of reporters for a Seattle lifestyle magazine. Jeff, a 30-something writer, has spotted an intriguing classified ad: “Wanted: Someone to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. I have only done this once before. Must bring your own weapons. SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED” – and wants to investigate. With the help of two misfit magazine interns, Darius (Aubrey Plaza) and Arnau (Karan Soni), the team piles into a car and sets off for the small town of Ocean View Washington, to learn more. Here they discover Kenneth (Mark Duplass), a grocery store clerk, prone to fits of paranoia and time travel fantasies, who is tolerated by his fellow-employees with shoulder shrugging resignation. Prompted by the womanizing Jeff, who is more interested in looking up a former high school flame than researching the story, Darius volunteers to be Kevin’s fel-
low time traveler. The shy and selfdeprecating Darius soon recognizes in Kenneth, the dorky guy in high school who never fully fit in, a kindred spirit. In going back in time, his goal is not to travel to some exotic era centuries ago, but to return to 2001 in order to save a girl he had a high school crush on from a fatal accident. The movie takes on a number of subplots that keep the film moving in some unexpected directions. Darius and Kenneth pull off a heist of high tech equipment from a classified facility as two government agents lurk in the background. Jeff, the wisecracking lothario, takes Arnau, an ultra serious Indian biology student, under his wing, teaching him how to loosen up and meet girls; in turn, Jeff’s former girlfriend, who is approaching middle age and is at first a disappointment, teaches him that relationships can be more than skin deep.

By Dean “The Sportsman” Greenaway
Doing It For The Cause Across the globe, there are numerous organized runs and walks for various causes that attract thousands of participants, who give their support to these events in many ways. I was delighted to see that we have finally moved towards this worldwide trend. It was just three years ago, that the annual Highland Spring College Classic Series turned one of its five races into an annual benefit event and introduced the “Race for a Cause” concept. The community has responded positively to this noble endeavor. Funds raised during that inaugural 2009 benefit event, went to the Valley Sound Lions Club from the race held in Virgin Gorda, while the BVI Red Cross activities and the Rotary Club of Tortola’s International Polio Eradication Campaign were supported by the Tortola race. In 2010, the cause was for Cancer, with the BVI Cancer Society benefiting. Last year’s event focused on Diabetes with the BVI Diabetics Association and the Virgin Gorda Diabetes Association being the beneficiaries. Of all the causes over the last three years, we all know some family member, friend, co-worker or acquaintance, who has been afflicted by one of these silent killers. The struggle to find cures and lend support continues daily. This weekend will be the fourth “Race for a Cause” on
Tortola, starting at 7am at HLSCC in Paraquita Bay. It’s yet another opportunity for the community to support an important cause. “I’m inviting everybody to come out and support the cause,” said Race Director, Stephanie Russ Penn. “This particular cause sees the beginning of an HLSCC endowment fund, where the college can aim to grow a fund that can help us to do developments in the future and aid students as we continue to educate them in the Territory.” While contributing to the cause, persons are also contributing to bettering their own health by exercising in the process, a win–win situation. Many people have turned this road racing series into an opportunity to expand their fitness regiment alongside 200 other persons, in a fun filled environment. The fact that it offers varying levels of competition – from trying to better your own best time to competing with others – just adds to the appeal of the race and keeps the ritual going. This weekend will close out the 2012 series on yet another positive note and one last chance to catch the crowd and the spirited camaraderie the event offers every time. Go and get your last fix of the season. Event organizers too, must be commended for continuing their endeavors in this regard. That in itself is a cause worthy of recognition and celebration. But, whatever you do, I encourage you to go out and support the cause.
Running for a cause takes center stage
