When OK you say to terminate a pregnancy?  MontereyBayForum links with BrooklynSFMama.com  a new website,  which  discuss first year life for babies and pregnancy. For many pregnant moms the possibility of genetic testing does not happen until around week 20  — well past when mothers are showing, have told family and friends and have started to make changes preparatory for their baby.
pregnancy
So much happens during a  woman’s pregnancy. A lot of genetic testing is not done until around week 20 — when a woman is already showing and already “nesting”.  What to do when the genetic testing news is not good?

Another off limits Clinton: Â How does your husband / father treat women?
Ivanka Trump, daughter of GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, is constantly asked about her father’s treatment of and statements about women.
The same question  — how does Bill Clinton treat women? —  is not asked to Chelsea Clinton, daughter of former President Bill Clinton and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
What you won’t see from the mainstream media: Chelsea Clinton being asked to defend her father’s treatment of women, including accusations against him of rape.
The closest anyone came was Comospolitan, who framed the questionto Chelsea as an attack from Donald Trump. “Donald Trump has called your dad an abuser of women, and your mom his enabler. What do you think of his attacks on your parents?”
So while Hilary Clinton’s daughter  #Chelsa  is allowed to attack Ivanka’s father without consequence, Chelsea Clinton  herself is given a pass on her own father’s actions.
Women who accused Bill Clinton how they were  treated
Firenze Sage:  Well, if not this  — how about Chelsa’s  executive role in the Clinton Foundation which gives almost 10% to charity after renting private planes to distribute the money.
What is feminism?  Left wing papers and feminist commentators are raging against yesterday’s news that the UK’s second female Prime Minister will again be a Tory.
“Don’t confuse the Conservatives’ embrace of female leaders with feminismâ€, declared a column in the Guardian. “A Tory leadership race between two women is not a feminist revolutionâ€, read the heading in the New Statesman, describing the Tory leadership contest as a “panicked pound-shop Thatcher tribute band contestâ€.
What is feminism?
Andrea Loadsom came in second. Â She has been criticized for overstating her professional qualifications. Â She got 84 votes to 194 votes for Theresa May. Â The vote which decides who will be the next Prime Minister occurs Sept. 9, 2016.
The hard left  Labor leader  Corbyn  who is  supportive  of VICE magazine gave both candidates a “0/10†“feminist ratingâ€.
Corbyn  concluded: “So who wins? Well not women, that’s for sure. Or anyone, from the looks of it.â€
I demand loaves and fishes. A woman  arrested Sunday night  refused to pay her dinner tab at a Myrtle Beach seafood restaurant. Why?  Because, as she explained to police, “Jesus†was going to cover the cost of her meal.
loaves and fishes
Asked to leave the restaurant she refused.  Ms Yates  had been there 4 hours before told to leave.
 Myrtle Beach Police were called to Bennetts Calabash just after 9 p.m. Sunday night when, according to the incident report, 51-year-old April Lee Yates was asked to leave by management, but refused to do so.
The report states that Yates was in the restaurant for nearly four hours before she started to cause a disturbance with other patrons.
Management asked Yates to pay her dinner tab and leave, but she refused to pay the $26 bill.
When the officer asked Yates if she had any money to pay, Yates said she did not. The officer then asked Yates what she planned to do with the bill came, and Yates explained that “Jesus†was going to pay her tab.
Yates was arrested for defrauding a restaurant and booked into the Myrtle Beach jail.
Pistol packing mamas?  Yes!  Handgun permits are way  up and murder rates have fallen. The number of concealed carry handgun permits has skyrocketed since President Obama was first elected, while murder rates have fallen, according to a new report set to be released Wednesday.
A 3 fold increase in  hand gun permits:  Since 2007, the number of concealed handgun permits has soared from 4.6 million to over 12.8 million, according to the report from the Crime Prevention Research Center.
In 2014,  there was the largest single year increase.  And the number is increasing faster every year. Over 1.7 million new permits were issued last year — a 15.4 percent increase from 2013, according to the report. It is the largest-ever single-year increase in the number of permits.
 The number of people that carry concealed handguns is likely even higher, since permits are not required in seven states. In CA it’s on appeal whether concealed hand guns may become legal.
There’s many more  pistol packing mamas.  More women are getting permits than men, the report stated. Since 2007, permits for women have increased by 270 percent and for men by 156 percent.

Firenze Sage: Â More guns, less crime. Thank you, mamas and papas.
Islamic sex therapy:   Daniel Greenfeld of Frontpagemag reports on Homaidan al-Turki, a Saudi rapist imprisoned in Colorado, who claims that his sex offender treatment program is Islamophobic:
Al-Turki told prison officials in 2013 that the sex offender treatment programme “conflicts with [his] Islamic faithâ€, according to a letter by the then executive director of the Colorado Department of Corrections, Tom Clements.
His lawyers told the court in the same year that the program: “would require [him] to look at photos that included women in bathing suits or undergarments as part of the evaluation processâ€, AP reported.
That would be the Abel Screening which is supposed to test for assorted deviancies. Undergoing it would be an important prerequisite to parole or transferring Al-Turki to a Saudi prison/resort.
Al-Turki’s original defense was that he did nothing wrong, raping a woman he enslaved and paid $2 a day for work, because Islam permits such things.
Chelsea Clinton is so unpleasant to colleagues, she’s causing high turnover at the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, sources say.
Several top staffers have left the foundation since Chelsea came onBoard as vice chairman in 2011.
“A lot of people left because she was there. A lot of people left because she didn’t want them there,†an insider told me. “She is very difficult.â€

Firenze Sage: Half a million from NBC to this journalist [Chelsa Clinton] wasn’t enough. Now she reigns at the family business.
 Over at Salon, a teacher of “Women’s and GenderStudies and Africana Studies†named Brittney Cooper wrote:
“How many times must troubled young white men engage in these terroristic acts that make public space unsafe for everyone before we admit that white male privilege kills?”

Firenze Sage, Esq.
A 1/2 Asian with a mental history who ostensibly hates woman kills 3 men with a knife or machete, and 4 with a gun and it’s white privilege somehow. Â The FBI says mass killings are done pretty much by everyone in the demographic mix.
